Checking For Regex Matches At The End Of A String

Jan 31, 2014

I have a regular expression that I created and tested on some regex site, [URL] .... It worked on the test site but I can't get it to work in Java.

The code is:

String s = "MyString.ext_CAL3";
assertTrue("Didn't Match", s.matches("_CAL[0-9]+$"));

This test always fails. I cannot figure out what is wrong with it. In fact, I can't get any match no matter what regex I use.

Checking If User Input Matches Any Number In Same Column

/*
* To change this template, choose Tools | Templates

package firstgui;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class TicTacToe {

[Code] ......

Program is 10x10 board, I need to check if the user's input is a duplicate of any number in that same column, but I can't figure it out. When I tried it, it always check the same box. For example, if I entered 4 in [1][1] (going by 10x10 grid), it automatically checks right after I entered that [1][1] is the same as my input and erases it. My professor wants me to check it with the "CheckWinner" method.

I tried the following when someone told me to pass the reference of the JButton being clicked to ignore it.

private boolean CheckWinner(JButton source, String inplayer) {
//...
if (EventBoard[i][j] != source &&
EventBoard[i][j].getText().equals( inplayer )){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "copy");
EventBoard[i][j].setText("");
}

Regex Special Character Checking

Oct 4, 2014

private static int getStrength(String pw) {
int strength = 0;
if(pw.length() >= 8){
strength++;

[Code] .....

This function doesn't seem to work for me. I believe the issue lies in the special character matching. It seems like it always returns true and adds to the strength. But I only want it to add to strength if at least one the following are in the password: *, -, _, ^, !, %

Return Given Char That Matches Input String

Apr 17, 2015

Processing a string. How would I only return a given char that matches the input string e.g. v and/or n and/or m.

Everything else that does not match will return a '*' - e.g. user input = t result = *

I assume I need to also iterate through this input string using charAt() ?

RegEx For String And Number

Sep 12, 2014

I am trying to write a regular expression for a text which has both String and number... like abc1234, xyz987, gh1052 etc. And the string usually contains 2 or 3 characters.
 
What I need is two Strings one containing the text (abc, xyz, gh etc) and other containing number (1234, 987, 1052, etc.). Have written the code below. but doesn't seem to work.
 
String query = "abc1052"; //Or query = "zyx900";
String regexp = "(.{3})(d*)|(.{2}(d*))";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regexp);
Matcher match = pattern.matcher(query);
if(match.find()){

[Code] ....

Also tried with regexp = "(.s*)(.d*)" in no avail.
 
Finally achieved with regexp = "(D*)(d*)";

Checking ArrayList For Certain String

Feb 16, 2014

The objective of my program is to read a file called input_data.txt and to calculate an invoice in which my program will print the results in a formatted text file. I haven't advanced to this step yet because I'm having trouble checking my ArrayList for a certain string. The reason I am searching for "duration" is so that my program will know when the heading is complete.

Here is the sample input file given:

account_number start_time_of_call duration
10011A 21:50 20.2
10011A 13:23 12.3
10033C 23:00 34.0
00101B 10:23 45.1

Eventually, I must separate the fields and calculate payment prices based on the duration and time of the calls.

import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class spInputOutput {

Replacing And Checking Character In String?

Jul 24, 2014

so my task is to write a code which would ask user to input the year as integer and first three letters of the month with first being an upper case letter. Than the program would determine the number of days for given year and month.

Currently I have a brain crash on how to check, if the user has provided the month with first character being upper Case. If not, than the program would automatically correct the character. Problem starts at line 17.

import java.util.Scanner;

public class DaysOfMonth4_17 {
public static void main (String[] args) {
//Initiate scanner
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
//Ask for year input and use is as INT
System.out.println("Enter the year");

Reading Input With Scanner And Checking If User Entered Empty String?

Apr 7, 2015

The project is a program that allows the user to enter students and enter grades for each student. One of the requirements is that if there is already a grade stored for the student that it will display the previous grade. IF the user then enters a new grade the new grade will be stored. IF the user simply presses enter (enters an empty string) nothing is done. I have everything working except for the requirement of doing nothing if the user enters an empty string. If I just press enter at this point I get a NumberFormatException.

The below code is a method "setTestGrades" from the student class. This method iterates through each student object stored in an array list and then checks if there is a previous grade (Requirement# unset grades have to default to -1) before allowing the user to set a new grade.

public void setTestGrades(int testNumber) { //Sets the grade for the specified test number for each student in the arraylist.
testNumber -= 1;
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
for (int i = 0; i < studentList.size(); i++) {
System.out.println("Please enter the grade for Test #" + (testNumber + 1) + " For Student " + studentList.get(i).getStudentName());

Calculate If Code Matches

Jan 19, 2015

I have for example a letter code "EECC"...Now i want to have a good loop that checkes if the code typed in by the player matches or not? For example if player types CECE it should say it matches because C occurs 2 times and E occurs 2 times. This function must return than 4.If player types CEEE, it must return 3, because the code has 2 C en 2 E, player input is 1 C and 3 E, the last E is wrong.I've tried some loops with breaks but they all fail..

for example:

String test = "EFCC";
String test3 = "ECEC";
for(int i = 0; i < test.length(); i++){
matchFound = false;

[Code] .....

This returns 2 instead of 3.

If Condition Matches Multiple Times

Feb 16, 2015

I'm working on a problem that requires me to generator all possible word combinations based on a 7-digit number as input. Many of the generated "words" will be nonsense, but some with be "NEWCARS", "TAKEOUT", etc... This problem mimics the phone number a company would use to support clients remember that number.

I completed the exercise, but I would like to explore more elegant solutions. Specifically, I've used an IF-THEN-ELSE condition inside of a FOR loop. Here is my working code:

package com.johnny_v.exercises.telephone;
public class WordGenerator {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int numOfTimes = 2187;
String two = "ABC";
String three = "DEF";
String four = "GHI";

[code].....

I receive StringIndexOutOfBoundsException exceptions. I it's because multiple conditions are matched. For example, the indexSix is reset to 0 when row is a multiple of 9. Because row is also a multiple of 3, this condition also executes and then increments "indexSix".

Java If-then-else RegEx

Mar 18, 2014

I need to create a regexp, that will do the following:

a,a,a,a,c - matches
c,a,a,a,a - matches
a,a,a,a,a - doesn't match

I will be using it in Java. In the place of 'a', can be 'b' - they are equal. Also, in the place there can be any other character. This is what i have came up with:

^(?=^(a|b)).*((a|b),){4}(?!(a|b))|(?!(a|b)).*(((a| b),*){4})$

It fails because it matches the 5 a's. I'm quite new to regexp, so I'm not aware of all the possibilities. It matches the 5 a's, because the first if fails, but the second does not. Maybe there is a simpler way to accomplish this? (Also why are the .* necessary in the middle?)

Test If A Name Is Variable With Regex

Jun 11, 2014

I would like to test whether the first word in a line is is a valid var name (e.g sequence of letters, digits and "_", it may not start with a digit, if "_" is the first char it must be followed by a letter). I tried this simple code:

String namePattern = "_[a-zA-Z0-9]+";
String text = "__c";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(namePattern);
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(text);
"__c" is an illegal var name.

But it returns the string "_c", where it is supposed to return an empty matcher.

where am I wrong here?

Common Regex For Alphabets And Numbers

May 14, 2015

I am using the following regex - [a-zA-Z0-9]{9,18} which means I can use alphabets and numbers with minimum length as 9 and maximum length as 18.It should not take special characters.

It takes values like ADV0098890 etc. but it is also taking ADV0098890[] which is wrong.
 
How can I prevent that ?

Regex Replacing Entire Text Rather Than Match

Feb 14, 2014

With the code below, I am trying to replace all regex matches for visa cards within a given text file.

My first test was with a text "new3.txt" exclusively containing the visa test card 4111111111111111. My objective was to replace the card with "xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx". This was successful.

However, when modifying the text file to include other characters and text before and after (ex: " qwerty 4111111111111111 adsf zxcv"), it gives mixed results. Although it successfully validates the match, it replaces the whole text in the file, rather than replacing solely the match.

When trying this search and replace with words (rather than a regex match), it does not have this behavior. What am I missing?

import java.io.*;
import java.util.regex.*;
public class BTest
{
//VISA Test
private final static String PATTERN = "(?s).*4[0-9]{12}(?:[0-9]{3})?.*";
public static void main(String args[])
{
try

Integer Values To Display In JFrame - RegEx Not Being Recognized

Jan 27, 2014

I have a program in which I am prompting users for integer values to display in a JFrame. I call the method below to load an array with their input:

Java Code:

public String inputAssembly(){
if (!jtfInput.getText().matches("d")){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Input must be of integer value.");
} if (jrbFar.isSelected()){
return jtfInput.getText() + jrbFar.getText();

[Code] ....

Regardless of the input, both messages display (invalid input / got it). I've tried debugging so I know that the values are getting entered and read correct, at least to my knowledge. It is a very simple regular expression, only checking to be sure an integer was entered.
