Hello,

I am writing a simple program for my Java class and I keep getting this annoying error that after reading the code over and over again, I just can't see where the error is originating from. Anything obvious sticking out?

Here is the error:
Exception in thread "main" java.util.InputMismatchException
at java.util.Scanner.throwFor(Unknown Source)
at java.util.Scanner.next(Unknown Source)
at java.util.Scanner.nextDouble(Unknown Source)
at Exercise6.main(Exercise6.java:28)

Here is my code:

import java.io.Console;

public class Exercise6
{

static Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);

public static void main(String[] args)
{

    double Employeename;
    double Grosspay;

import java.util.*;

public class Exercise6
{

static Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);

public static void main(String[] args)
{

    double Employeename;
    double Grosspay;
    int    netpay;
    double Federalincometax;
    double statetax;
    double socialsecuritytax;
    double medicaremedicaidtax;
    double pensionplan;
    double healthinsurance;

    System.out.print("Enter Gross amount: ");
    Grosspay = console.nextDouble();
    System.out.println();

    System.out.print("Enter Employee Name: ");
    Employeename = console.nextDouble();
System.out.println();

netpay = (int) (Grosspay * 0.15 * 0.035 * 0.0575 * 0.0275 * 0.05 - 75.00);
    Federalincometax = netpay * 0.15;
    statetax = netpay * 0.035;
    socialsecuritytax = netpay * 0.0575;
    medicaremedicaidtax = netpay * 0.0275;
    pensionplan = netpay * 0.05;
    healthinsurance = netpay - 75.00;
Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);

include this in the main method and remove static
