Thats exactly it. He didn't give enough info to determine if the stretching effects the worms position. And take a look at the sample output he provided:

Code:

Code

Sample Output Day = 0 Million.   Distance from end = 0 Million meters. Day = 1 Million.   Distance from end = 19 Million meters. Day = 2 Million.   Distance from end = 30 Million meters. Day = 3 Million.   Distance from end = 39 Million meters. Day = 4 Million.   Distance from end = 45 Million meters. Day = 5 Million.   Distance from end = 49 Million meters.  …….  When the worm crawls 6 meters per day: the worm reaches the end of the rope on day = …….

and he gave us this code to start:

Code:

Code

public class Worm {   public static int DISTANCEPERDAY = 6;   public static void main(String[]arg) {     double ropeLength = 100;      double distanceFromStart = 0;     double distanceFromEnd = ropeLength;      int day = 0;     while (…………………………………..) {      }      System.out.println("When the worm crawls " + DISTANCEPERDAY +        " meters per day:");           System.out.println("the worm reaches the end of the rope on day = " + day);  } }

Looking at he output only proves that the worm will never reach the end...
