[news.eclipse.newcomer] System.out.printf

[tleira@xxxxxxxxxxx (Tim Leira)]

Hello all:
Perhaps someone can help me figure out my problem which is when I type for 
example:

System.out.printf( "Enter deposit amount for account2: ")
depositAmount = input.nextDouble();

eclipse underlines the word "printf" and says the following:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation 
problems: 
	The method printf(String, Object[]) in the type PrintStream is not 
applicable for the arguments (String, double)

When I compile this same program with note pad it works fine but for some 
reason eclipse does,nt like printf. If I use println ot print it works 
fine, any suggestions and solutions would be very much appreciated.

Tnx
