Cannot Find Symbol - Static Scanner Console

Jan 11, 2015

I am attempting to write a application that asks user input of a decimal, and outputs a value rounded to the nearest integer of the input.

Here is what I have so far, and I am seeing an error at Static Scanner Console that says Cannot Find Symbol for the class Scanner. and I am not sure how to resolve it.

Note the program so far is only asking for input - I have not gotten to the output part yet.

public class IT145Exercise13 {
static Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) { 
double decimal;
int rounded;
 
[Code] ......

This is my second Java program (First was HelloWorld, which went really well )

Seems I need to include
import java.util;

when I do, the error at the console line goes away.

I am not clear what this import statement is doing so will check that out.

Console Input Of Strings Using Scanner

May 9, 2015

I am having a great deal of frustration trying to use the scanner to get user input from the eclipse console. Here is what I am trying to do.

Print a menu for the user with options, take that (1) char input and run it into a switch statement for processing. I have that done and it is working fine.

If the user chooses to enter strings for storage, They are instructed to enter their string and press enter to complete that string entry. Then enter the next string and press enter, etc.

So I have a While loop for this. Get the scanner input, store it in the LinkedList, get the next scanner input, etc. I get the scanner string and store it in a Linked list. That works fine. The user is instructed to simply enter a blank string to end the entry procedure, like just press Enter on the new line without typing a new string.

The problem is the scanner doesn't seem to return anything for me to Test to close this procedure. How do I TRAP the fact that the user just pressed enter so I can end my procedure? I have tried next() and nextLine() and reset(), etc. And I am getting knowhere.

Writing A Large Symbol In The Console

Sep 3, 2014

What I'm tasked to do, is to make a simple Java class that forms a "V" based on whatever height the user would desire, made out of stars "*", and spaces " ".

For example, if a user desires a "V" with a height of 3, it would look print out something like;

* *
* *
*

Where a "V" with a height of 5 would look something like:

* *
* *
* *
* *
*

(That one didn't look too good, but you get the point, it's suppose to be 5 "high" and shaped like a "V"). The problem I have, is that I don't see what loops within loops within loops I would need to build something like this.

All the easy stuff like asking the user what height they want and such, I can handle, but I don't see how this thing is suppose to be coded, to print out a decent-looking and right-sized "V" in the console.

public static void main(String[] args) {
int height = 3;
for (int i = 0; i < height; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < 2/(height+1)+1; j++) {
if(j == i) {

[Code] ....

Looked like something of a good start, and it drew me half (!) of the "V" in the size I wanted. Am I on to it here, or am I on the moon in terms of progress? I need the entire "V", not just a nice "".

Scanner That Scans Console For Input To Fetch String Word

Jul 28, 2014

I'm having an issue, I have a scanner (Scan.nextLine();) that scans the console for input to fetch the string "word". Then I want to fetch a character using Scan.findInLine(word).charAt(number);. The problem is that the console requires me to write 2 lines in order for the program to move on. I only want the program to scan for a word, and then move on with what it has instead of requiring 2 inputs.

Can't Find Symbol In ObjectOutputStream

My assignment is to create an ObjectOutputStream object mapped to a binary output file named "ItemRecord_binary.txt". So far I've created a ItemRecord class with a constructor with getters and setters and a override toString method. It compiled. This ItemRecordReport class does not compile because of a can't find symbol error. Here is the code:

import java.io.*;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectOutputStream;

Cannot Find Symbol Error

Jun 12, 2014

I thought I have been getting this right, but I keep getting stuck on this one error. Here is my code. Why it keeps getting a 'cant find symbol' error?

// import statements
import java.util.Scanner;
// class declaration
public class GradeConverter
{
// main method declaration
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// display a welcome message

[code]....

It is just a simple input a number between 1-100 and it spits out the letter grade.

Cannot Find Symbol Error

Sep 18, 2014

I'm picking up Java for a class, and having prior C++ knowledge this stuff has been fairly straightforward with the exception of trying to learn the whole IO system in this language.

className.java:line_number: error: cannot find symbol
myList.add(input);
^

I have dealing with this error left and right after picking up this language, and I can never seem to figure out what it's trying to tell me. I've heard people say it's referring misspelled objects or methods, but I've double and triple checked my code and that never seems to be true for me.I'm trying to make a small program which will allow me to play with the LinkedList object so I can gain some familiarity with how they work in Java, and I have this code so far:

import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class playWithLists {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
//List<String> myList = new LinkedList<String>();
LinkedList myList = new LinkedList();
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String input = "";
 
[code]....

The compiler is giving me an error at line 16 (specifically: myList.add(input); )

Cannot Find Symbol Compile Error

Jul 23, 2014

programming altogether and after almost reaching half way in the 'Head first java' book I decided to try and apply some of what I've learnt so far and write my first 'Object orientated' program. As this is pretty much the first program I've ever written, I decided to write a program to ask for two integers and add them both together and then present them to the user (the goal eventually being a basic fully working command line calculator with +,-,* and /. I'm expecting many compile errors but not the following errors below.

I have three .java files contained within a folder and after trying to figure out how to compile all three files (as they use one another) all at once, I came across this ---> javac *.java

so I typed this in the command line whilst in the directory containing the three files assuming *.java is the best approach and then I receive the following errors:

inputOutput.java:10: error: cannot find symb
c.addition() = intIn.nextInteger();
^
symbol: variable c
location: class inputOutput

I also am at a loss as to what to do for the first two classes as well as the interest class. What I had for the first two didn't work, so I scrapped itand don't remember what it was.
