Is it not possible to add a double value to a Vector? This is what I'm trying (basically):

Vector vecTest = new Vector();
double mynumber = 1.1;
vecTest.add(mynumber);

I'm getting the following error:

method(add)double not found in class java.util.Vector

I am importing java.util.Vector and I can add strings to vecTest. What's the deal?

I'm still pretty new to Java, so please be kind. :)

Thanks!

Vector v = new Vector();
double d = 1.03456;
v.add(new Double(d));

a "double" is no Object, and a Vector can take only Objects.
Wrapping the "double" in a "Double" (which is an Object) will allow you to put it into a Vector.
Same thing applies to boolean (Boolean), int (Integer) etc.
 
Brilliant, that worked a treat. Thank you!
