Help with conditional statements

Heya, i'm a pure swedish beginner at programming. I have certain difficulties to get a program working involving conditional operators/statements.
The task is following:
In order for a declaration relief from double residence requires that the distance to work is more than 50 km and that the work lasts more than a year for singles and 3 years for cohabitant. Construct a program that allows the user to input the data and that informs whether the user has the right to tax or not.

This might seem like a really easy program to construct but everyone has been beginners at some time. I would really appreciate if anyone could help me out here.

I've made some minor pseducode on paper, although it hardly helps me with the the encoding

best regards
Emil

Do you know how to make a Scanner to take input? If you do, the rest is just 'if' statements. Maybe something like:

Code:

---

if(workDistance > 50) { //or >=50, depending if 50km counts.
    if(isSingle && workTime > 1) {
        canTax = true;
    } else if(!isSingle && workTime > 3) {
        canTax = true;
    } //if neither requirement is met, it will leave this loop and go to 'return false'
}
canTax = false;

---

All that's left is using the Scanner to take input, and declaring 'workDistance', 'isSingle'...

I know exactly what you mean Henry. Thanks alot for the help!
