this is the end of my program...:
import java.util.Scanner; public class EnglishLanguage {
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Scanner kb = new Scanner(System.in); //Prompt user for a single digit, an operand and another simgle digit combination.
System.out.println("Enter an operation: "); int operand1 = kb.nextInt();
// validate operand1
// if operand1 is not a single digit display an error message and exit
if( operand1 < 0 || operand1 > 9)
{
System.out.println("Error: Operand must be a single digit");
System.exit(0);
}
// operand1 is valid // read an operator
String operatorStr = kb.next();
char operator = operatorStr.charAt(0);
// validate the operator
if( operator != '+' && operator != '-' && operator != '*' && operator != '/' && operator != '^')
{
System.out.println("Error: illegal operator");
System.exit(0);
} int operand2 = kb.nextInt(); // validate operand2
// if operand2 is not a single digit display an error message and exit
if( operand2 < 0 || operand1 > 9)
{
System.out.println("Error: Operand must be a single digit");
System.exit(0);
}
// operand1 is valid //Translate each operator and operand into the english language. String operand1English = "unknown number";
switch(operand1)
{
case 0: operand1English = "zero"; break;

case 9: operand1English = "nine"; break;
default: System.out.println("Error: Operands must be single digits and positive.");
System.out.println("Try again later");
System.exit(0);
} String operatorEnglish = "unknown number";
switch(operator)
{
case '+': operatorEnglish = " plus "; break;
case '-': operatorEnglish = " minus "; break;
case '*': operatorEnglish = " times "; break;
case '/': operatorEnglish = " divided by "; break;
case '^': operatorEnglish = " to the power of "; break;
default: System.out.println("Error: Illegal operator");
System.out.println("Try again later");
System.exit(0);
} String operand2English = "unknown number";
switch(operand2)
{
case 0: operand2English = "zero"; break;

case 9: operand2English = "nine"; break;
default: System.out.println("Error: Operands must be single digits and positive.");
System.out.println("Try again later");
System.exit(0);
} if (operand2 == 0 && operator == '/')
{
System.out.println("Error. Operation cannot be divided by zero.");
System.exit(0);
} int result = -999;
switch(operator)
{
case '+': operatorEnglish = " plus "; break;
case '-': operatorEnglish = " minus "; break;

case '^': operatorEnglish = (int) Math.pow(operand1, operand2) ; break;
default: System.out.println("Error: Illegal operator");
System.out.println("Try again later");
System.exit(0);
} // compute results of the operation
System.out.println((operand1English + operatorEnglish + operand2English) + "= " + result);
} } when i compile it, it says: incompatible types
found : int
required: java.lang.String
case '^': operatorEnglish = (int) Math.pow(operand1, operand2) ; break; what do i do,

go to w3schools.com
best help anywhere

nevermind.
change case '^': operatorEnglish = (int) Math.pow(operand1, operand2) ; break; to case '^': operatorEnglish = Integer.toString( (int) Math.pow(operand1, operand2) ) ; break;
