How would I be able to code a program that acts like a stock manager. Where the user inputs the number of shares they hold and the price per share. The program needs to print the total assists and save the file as a text file.
Please help me on how exactly I would code this.
You need to create a program design. This is done by leaving the computer alone for a while and working out on paper all the steps you would need to take to do the task manually. Keep a record of all the items of data you'd need and what you would do with them. Once you have figured out all the steps and all the data for exactly how you would do the task on paper (i.e. by hand), you can translate it into Java code.
Creating the design is not a Java problem, but we can probably help if you get stuck. If you have any questions during this part, post up the design you have so far and explain exactly what the problem is. Remember more specific questions get more specific answers.
If you get stuck on the Java coding, post up the code you have, and any error messages, and explain what the problem is.
Computer science education cannot make anybody an expert programmer any more than studying brushes and pigment can make somebody an expert painter...
