Basic Java GUI Application - Array Searching

Nov 30, 2014

I am currently working on a application for a car park system. It uses GUI created by myself and holds 15 parking spaces. The user has the option to add, delete or search for a specific car. When the user adds a new car, details of the car are entered, the cars registration number (saved as a string), and the user had to check one raido button if the car is expensive, large or normal.

Once this information is entered a new instance of a vehicle will be created and the bay the car is allocated to turns green and stored in one of three arrays(expensive, normal or large). I also have a fourth array for creating the parking spaces.Each array can only hold 5 vehicles apart from the fourth which can hold all 15. When searching for a vehicle the user enters the registration of the vehicle they want to find, but I have to search through all three arrays to find it, and if it does not exist showing a message saying so.These are my three arrays

public static ParkingBay[] regularBays = new ParkingBay[5];
public static ParkingBay[] largeBays = new ParkingBay[5];
public static ParkingBay[] expensiveBays = new ParkingBay[5];

String Registration; - saves registration entered from add form
String RegistrationNumber; - saves registration number from search form

I need to search to see if RegistrationNumber is in either of the three arrays if not show a message saying otherwise

Searching Array Of Objects In Java

Jul 23, 2014

'm working on a program that is to act as an inventory for a book store. There are two classes (Store and Book), and numerous methods which you will see in my code. The program is supposed to read in an inventory from a file which contains 10 books (each row in the file represents a book with an ISBN number, the price of the book, and the number in stock)and store this file into an array of type Book[]. There is then to be another method to process a purchase interactively. The Store class is also to keep a count of how many books were sold at the time of closing and also how much was made that day.

I'm having some difficulty figuring out how I should set up the purchase processing method though. I've written out how I think it would be set up (not too familiar with the terminology, but I think it would be called pseudo code?) I'll include that now along with a few other notes.

public Book[] purchase(String isbn, double price, int copies) {
int itemsSold;
double totalMade;
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please enter the ISBN number of the book you would like to purchase: ");

[Code] ....

So basically here's what needs to be accomplished with this portion of code:

1.Ask the user to enter the ISBN number of the book they'd like to purchase.
2.Search the array for the object that contains that ISBN.
3.If the ISBN isn't found in the array, display a message stating that we don't have that book.
4.If the ISBN is found but the number of copies is 0, display a message saying the book is out of stock.
5.If the ISBN is found and the number of copies is greater than 0, ask the user how many copies they'd like to purchase.
6.If the number they enter is greater than the number of copies of that book in the array, display a message stating that and ask them to enter another quantity.
7.Once the purchase is complete I need to update the array by subtracting the number of copies of that particular book that was purchased.
8.Print the updated array.
9.Display a count of how many books were purchased, and how much money was made from the purchase.

I know that code has a lot of holes in it, but I'm just trying to get everything together and figure out how to do each step.

The part I'm stuck on right now is trying to figure out how to search the array to first see if the ISBN that was entered is in the array, and then to find the number of copies of the book with that ISBN number.

In case it will visualize what this array looks like, here's a print out of the array from a sample run I just did.

ISBN: 1234567, Price: 31.670000, Copies: 0
ISBN: 1234444, Price: 98.500000, Copies: 4
ISBN: 1235555, Price: 27.890000, Copies: 2
ISBN: 1235566, Price: 102.390000, Copies: 6

[Code] ....

Passing A Method And Searching Array

Apr 22, 2014

How to pass the methods listed below.

public ArrayList<Person> findPerson(String searchFor)

^ this method is suppose to search an array and find whatever you search (numerical or alphabetical)

I have this

public ArrayList<Person> findPerson(String searchFor) {
Main.handleSearchPerson(keyboard, searchFor);
ArrayList<Person> matches = new ArrayList<>();
for (Person p : personList) {
boolean isAMatch = false;

I am not sure if how i am searching the method is correct or how to pass that to another class to put it inside of a switch statement.

An array which contain a list of names. I let for a user input and I use that to search through the array. For example lets say the string name "Christian" is stored inside the names array and the user types in Chri, the program looks in the array and finds a name that contains Chri and prints them out. How do I go about doing this?

Searching Large Char Array For Matching Substrings

Feb 10, 2015

I have written an algorithm that compares the chars and returns all the found words in a 20x10 puzzle, but not for a 100x50 puzzle.

The puzzles are loaded in via text file and I have confirmed they're loading correctly.

guesses = String[] of search words
puzzle = char[][] of letters

Why it doesn't work on the large array?

Expected output:
word1, word2, word3

Actual output:
[blank line]

Here's the horizontal algorithm (row by row search)

//temp variable
ArrayList<String> temp = new ArrayList<String>();
try {
//for each guess word
for(String word : guesses) {
int count = 0;

Searching Array - Read From A File That Is List Of Songs

Oct 10, 2014

I have an assignment for my intro class that requires me to read from a file that is a list of songs, their artists, and the year they were released. As seen below, a print line statement prompts the user to enter an artist name, and then it uses a buffered reader to gain input, and then it is supposed to match that input.I realize that this is not a complete statement, but I'm mostly concerned with getting the .indexOf statement to work.Currently it only returns the first object in the array.

for(int i = 0; i < song.length; i++) {
System.out.println("Enter an Artist name");
String input1 = kb.readLine();
if (song[i].getArtist().indexOf(input1) > -1) {
/*tried changing -1 to -2. When I do, it returns the
first array entry, regardless of what I input*/
System.out.println(song[i].toString());
}
}

Fibonacci Application - Store Its Sequence In Array

Mar 12, 2014

Modify the Improved Fibonacci application to store its sequence in an array. Do this by creating a new class to hold both the value and a boolean value that says whether the value is even, and then having an array of object references to objects of that class.

Did I just need to declaring the variable in other class (for boolean value and the value itself) or else ?

Here is the code for ImprovedFibonacci.java

Java Code:

class ImprovedFibonacci {
static final int MAX_INDEX = 9;
/**
* Print out the first few Fibonacci numbers,
* marking evens with a '*'
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
int lo = 1;
int hi = 1;
String mark;

Java Application With Several Classes All In Same Java File

Apr 9, 2015

I've written a java application with several classes all in the same .java file. It works just fine. Now, I've broken it up so that each class has its own .java file. Still works fine. My next step is to put those classes into a package, but I'm not about to get the program to run.The .java source files are all in /home/user/src

I've set the CLASSPATH to /home/user/src..All of the source files have "package com.myfirm.program" on the first line.I compiled the application with:

javac -d . File1.java File2.java File3.java (etc...)

the compiler created the directory: /home/user/src/com/myfirm/program and put all of the .class files in there.So how do I get the program to run? if I run from /home/usr/src

java File1

I get: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: File1 (wrong name: com/myfirm/program/Program)

Use DLL On Java Application

Sep 10, 2014

I am working with DLLs in java.

A while ago, I developed an application in VB.net, and I'm trying to "convert" this application to Java. But this VB.net application uses some specific DLLs and I need to use them in my Java application. However, my knowledge in this respect are quite limited in manupulate DLLs on Java.

Up to this point, I can already load the DLL. I've read some documentation on how to use functions that are in the DLL; but I have some doubts. For example, how can I translate this piece of code to Java?

Java Code:

API = New MyDLL.Base
With API
.para1= "1"
.para2= 2
.para3= True
.para4= False

Basic Grade Calculator

Jan 24, 2015

im considered quite the "javanoob" as my account name states..The assignment is to basically take a number that is entered by a user, and based off what they type in, display a corresponding grade letter. For example, if they enter a number between 90-100, they should receive a response that they received an "A". Now, this is fairly simple using an if/else statement, but my professor wanted us to implement this, using a switch case to teach us the difference.

import java.util.*;
public class SwitchTest
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);

System.out.println("Please enter a number to find out what letter grade you have recieved");
