    public static void main(String[] args) {

        System.out.println("Abundantcode.com Java Tutorials");

        double input1 = 76.88967;
        long output1 = Math.round(input1);
        System.out.println("Long value is " + output1);

        int output2 = Math.round(output1);
        System.out.println("int value is " + output2);
