I really need help writing this code !!

This is a java program that calculates the perimeter of triangles and displays the triangle which has the minimum perimeter. It will first ask the user to put how many triangles he has then it asks him to put the 3 sides of each one (each triangle on a line) and finally it will give him the triangle number with the minimum perimiter.

import java.util.Scanner; public class Minimum_Perimeter { public static void main (String[]args) { Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); int n; //No. of triangles input by the user double min = 1000.0; int order =0; System.out.println ("How many triangles do you have?"); n = input.nextInt(); float side1, side2, side3; //Sides of the triangle float perimeter=0; System.out.println ("Please, insert lengths of the sides of these triangles (3 real numbers per line): " ); for (int i= 1; i<=n; i++) { side1 = input.nextFloat(); side2 = input.nextFloat(); side3 = input.nextFloat(); perimeter = side1 + side2 + side3; //Calculating the perimeter if (perimeter < min) min= (double) perimeter; order++; System.out.println(); System.out.printf("The minimum perimeter is: %.1f %n" , min); } }
