Based on the following code, what data types could be entered without error? entry1 = enterV.nextFloat(); entry2 = enterV.nextFloat(); System.out.println(entry1 + entry2);
integer, float ava will accept an integer in a float field (would just make it something like 25.0). But, if you try to enter other data types it will fail (although double may also work, depending on the length and precision). It's best to check for valid values or allow double from the start.
