Look at Programming Exercise 6.9 in the textbook on conversions between feet and meters:

EDIT:  My version of the assignment requires "right-aligning" the data columns (as opposed to the default left-alignment as illustrated in the textbook example).  Information on using the System.out.printf("format-string", var1var2...) method is on page 146 section 4.6 and the following 4 pages (end of chapter 4).

NOTE:  System.out.printf("%8.2f%n", 12.34567); would use the format string → "%8.2f%n" to print → ...12.35 (that is, right-justified in a column of 8 characters and rounded to 2 places followed by a newline).

Create the following methods:

/** Convert from feet to meters */
public static double footToMeter(double foot)

/** Convert from meters to feet */
public static double meterToFoot(double meter)

Where:

meter = 0.305 * feet
foot = 3.279 * meter

Differences from the textbook:

Create a Right-Aligned table (not left-aligned as in the textbook:

Feet    Meters  | Meters  Feet
----------------+----------------
1.0 0.305 | 20.0 65.574 ← 1st row
... | ....
10.0 3.050 | 65.0 213.115 ← 10th row

Attach the source code (as a single dot java file).
