Write a complete java method that returns an integer. the method declares a scanner object, then prompts the user for a series of integers in a while loop. if the user enters an integer (not a string, double, etc) then read each value entered and keep a running total (a sum). make sure to validate that the user enters only integers. include a sentinel value (-1) to allow the user to indicate when they are done. the method returns the total.

Here is code in java.

import java.util.*;

class Main

{

 // main method of the class

public static void main (String[] args) throws java.lang.Exception

{

   try{

        // print the running total of all inputs

       System.out.println("total of all the inputs is: "+fun());

   }catch(Exception ex){

       return;}

}

/* function to take input from user until input is -1

 and keep a running total */

public static int fun()

{

    int in;

     //scanner class object to read the input

    Scanner scr=new Scanner(System.in);

     // variable to keep running total

    int total=0;

    System.out.println("please enter an Integer:(-1 to stop)");

     // read the input first time

    in=scr.nextInt();

    while(in!=-1)

    {

     // this loop keep taking input until input is -1.

     // calculate running total of all inputs

        total=total+in;

        System.out.println("please enter an number:(-1 to stop)::");

        in=scr.nextInt();

    }

     // return total of all inputs

    return total;

}

}

Explanation:

Create an object of scanner class in the method fun_tot(),it will take input from user.In while loop it will ask user to give input and calculate the sum of all inputs.when user enter -1 then while loop breaks and the method will return the total of all inputs given by the user.

Output:

please enter an number:(-1 to stop)::23

please enter an number:(-1 to stop)::3

please enter an number:(-1 to stop)::5

please enter an number:(-1 to stop)::76

please enter an number:(-1 to stop)::12

please enter an number:(-1 to stop)::-1

total of all the inputs is: 119

the benefits of raising bc’s minimum wage to $15 through a

series of pre-announced staged increases far outweigh the likely

costs. claims that such an increase will lead to massive job losses

in low-wage sectors of the economy are not credible.

• an increase to $15 would result in some job losses. however,

the likely impact is less than a 1 per cent reduction in the overall

provincial employment rate, and a 7.6 per cent reduction in the

employment rate for those currently making between $10.25

and $15 per hour.

• the large job loss impacts predicted by some opponents of

minimum wages misrepresent the existing economic research. in

reading and using that research, it is important to recognize that

estimates showing job loss effects of minimum wage increases

apply only to teenagers. estimated effects for young adult and

adult workers range from insignificant to non-existent.

• focusing on teenage workers plays up an inaccurate stereotype

about who earns very low wages in bc and leads to exaggerated

claims about job losses. only 26 per cent of those currently making

between $10.25 and $12 are teenagers, and only 5 per cent

of those making between $12 and $15 are teenagers.
