ID: ID001

Make sure you include this ID as a System.out.println() message at the beginning of your program. This helps us with grading, and is required.

Description: Write a program with the class name Distance. Allow the user to enter two coordinate points (an x and y value for each point). Then display the distance between these two points. Use the equation below to calculate distance:

square root of (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2

Submit this to the Post Lab Program Submission area. Upload just the JAVA class file. This can be found from within your project files, under the src folder.

Below is the input and the output we expect from your program. This is to help you know if you are on the right track. To test this Post Lab we might enter 6,8.7,34, 4.44, ect

Example input :

5.4

2.3

8

3.4

Example output:

ID001

Please enter 2 points:

Enter x1: [double]

Enter y1: [double]

Enter x2: [double]

Enter y2: [double]

The distance is: 2.8231 [should be accurate to 1 decimal place]
