Introduction

This project includes the Currency Conversion where the HTML code gives user
friendly GUI, through which user can interact with converter. In this user can enter value in
Rupees and while we click on the button “CONVERT”, we get converted currency values on
dynamic page ,which is created by using Servlet and all calculations are done here.
A currency converter is software code that is designed to convert one currency into another in
order to check its corresponding value. The code is generally a part of a web site or it forms a
mobile app and it is based on current market or bank exchange rates.
In order to convert one currency into another, a user enters an amount of money (e.g. '1000')
and chooses the currency he/she wishes to check the monetary value of (e.g. 'United States
Dollar'). After that, the user selects one, or sometimes several other currencies, he/she would
like to see the result in. The application software then calculates and displays the corresponding
amount of money.
Currency converters aim to maintain real-time information on current market or bank exchange
rates, so that the calculated result changes whenever the value of either of the component
currencies does. They do so by connecting to a database of current currency exchange rates.
The frequency at which currency converters update the exchange rates they use varies: Yahoo
currency converter updates its rates every day, while Convert My Money< every hour.
Currency converters usually display a value that is not biased towards buying or selling. This is
useful when:
 Estimating the value of goods or services
 Basic accounting and invoicing
 Preparing financial plans and reports
The currency conversion software calculates the rates as decimal point numbers with typically 4
decimals after the comma. Some may calculate the conversion rates with more decimals
internally but only 4 are displayed. This is related to precision, software internalization (i18n)
and how the Forex (foreign exchange) market works, where most conversions have 4 decimal
places, although some currency pairs also have 5. Most currency converters use up to 4.

 Literature Review

 What is Servlet?

We studied about Servlet for developing the currency converter. Servlet technology is
used to create a web application (resides at server side and generates a dynamic web page).
Servlet technology is robust and scalable because of java language. There are two types of
servlet:1. GenericServlet and 2. HttpServlet.

 What is HTTPServlet?

In this project HttpServlet is used. The HttpServlet class extends the GenericServlet
class and implements Serializable interface. It provides HTTP specific methods such as doGet,
doPost, doHead, doTrace etc.

 Methods are used to create Servlet?

public void service(ServletRequest req,ServletResponse res) dispatches the request

to the protected service method by converting the request and response object into http type.

 General Review:-
Viewed many existing convertors and values of another country currency for
calculating Rupees to Dollar, Euro ,Pounds and Rubal collecting the information about
the project. Searched on internet about the flow of procedure that we include in our
program.
