Trying to rewrite this code using methods, first is the old code, then the revised version. Wasn't sure what to do next.

package cookieCase;

import java.util.Scanner;

public class CookieCase

{

public static void main(String[] args)

{

// declare variables

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); // connection to keyboard for input

int numBoxes; // number of boxes of cookies

int numCases; // number of cases of cookies

String cleanUpStr; // clean up the keyboard buffer

final int BOXESPERCASE = 10; // number of boxes of cookies per case

//initialize variables

numBoxes = 0;

numCases = 0;

cleanUpStr = "none yet";

// continue to prompt user to enter a number of boxes until it is valid

do

{

// prompt user for number of boxes of cookies

System.out.print("Enter the number of boxes of cookies\t");

// read in the number of boxes

numBoxes = input.nextInt( );

cleanUpStr = input.nextLine( );

// check to see if number of boxes is invalid

if (numBoxes < 0)

{

// invalid number of boxes

System.out.println(numBoxes + " is invalid");

}

}while(numBoxes < 0);

// calculate the number of full cases required

numCases = numBoxes / BOXESPERCASE;

// check to see if there needs to be a partial case

if (numBoxes % BOXESPERCASE > 0)

{

++numCases;

}

// print out the results

System.out.println("Number of boxes\t" + numBoxes);

System.out.println("Number of cases\t" + numCases);

// close input stream

input.close( );

input.close(); //close Scanner

}//end main

}//end class

REVISED CODE

//CookieCaseConversion

//the purpose of this class is to determine the number of cases required to hold

//a number of boxes of cookies. This solution must be completed using selection

//statements and loops.
