Converting String to double
Change the line:<br><br>double doubleValue =
doubleValue(tempValue);<br><br>To:<br><br>double doubleValue =
tempValue.doubleValue();<br><br>The
doubleValue() method is an instance method which you use on
your tempValue which is an instance of the Double
class.<br><br>Sincerely,<br>Anthony Eden
