The class variable giftsTotal is meant to keep a running total as the program uses the other class methods, but all it currently does is output the value of the last method called. So what do I need to do in order to make this work the way I want it to?


public class Gift {

private double giftsTotal;

public void enterDollars(double input){
this.giftsTotal += input;
System.out.println("giftsTotal = "+ this.giftsTotal);
}
public void enterEuros(double input){

final double EURO_CONVERSION_RATE = 1.24;
this.giftsTotal = input * EURO_CONVERSION_RATE;
System.out.println("giftsTotal = "+ this.giftsTotal);
}
public void enterYen(double input){

final double YEN_CONVERSION_RATE = 0.0092;
this.giftsTotal = input * YEN_CONVERSION_RATE;
System.out.println("Working in enterYen.");
}

public double getTotalSavings(){
return giftsTotal;
}

Never Mind. I'm an idiot! I found the problem after a little experimentation

What was your problem?

I'm getting into Java too, so from other's mistakes I can learn too.
If it's not too much of trouble for you.
