Define All Local Variables And Method Parameters As Final?

May 16, 2015

I am using findbugs and PMD as a code analyser. I am keep getting warnings to use local variables and method parameters as final.

I want to know if its a good practice to keep them final or what to do?

Sometime i have a private method which is 1 line longer. Sometime it is annoying to use final.

Local Variables In Java

Jan 11, 2014

you can also refer this link Local variables in java?Local variables in java?To meet temporary requirements of the programmers some times..we have to create variables inside method or bock or constructor such type of variables are called as Local Variables.

----> Local variables also known as stack variables or automatic variables or temporary variables

----> Local variables will be stored inside Stack.

-----> The local variables will be created while executing the block

in which we declared it and destroyed once the block completed. Hence the scope of local variables is exactly same as the block in which we declared it.

package com.javatask.in;
class A{
public static void main(String args[]){
int i=0; // Local variable

Is It Better To Assign Objects To Local Variables

May 23, 2014

Let's say I have a loop that loops through objects in an ArrayList then does stuff with them. Is it better for me to store the object in a temporary local variable and do stuff with it, or always use the ".get(arrayindex)" thing?

Random Number Generator And Local Variables

Jul 31, 2014

Basically this code is supposed to create an int array of 50 elements, then pull the elements listed in positions 1-6 to make a lottery draw.

Problem is it gets down to that last "For" statement and then says "duplicate local variable i." If I attempt to separate it from the previous for loop with curly braces, then it gets mad and says it doesn't know what "local variable i" even IS. So I tried changing it to "j" in the last statement and it couldn't recognise that either. I feel like I need to change the variable name in that second for loop but I'm not sure how to make it understand that the second variable is going to be outputting the values from the first variable.

public class Lottery {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
int []nums = new int [50];
for (int i = 1; i <50; i ++) {nums[i] = i;}

[Code] ....

Final Static Variables In GregorianCalendar

Oct 27, 2014

why using the get method(c.get(c.HOUR_OF_DAY)); gives me the correct hour(currently 19) but directly accesing c.HOUR_OF_DAY returns 11 ? It shows In the documentation that HOUR_OF_DAY is public.

import java.util.*;
public class calendar2 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
new calendar2().timer();
}
private void timer() {
Calendar c=Calendar.getInstance();
//c.clear();
System.out.println(c.get(c.HOUR_OF_DAY));
System.out.println(c.HOUR_OF_DAY);

}
}

Accessing Variables - What Is The Final Value Of Counter

Mar 7, 2015

While reading head first java i encountered a problem(Pg. 90 chapter 4 - mixed messages).

Suppose in a class(say A) outside main() a counter variable is declared and initialized to 0.

In main() declared the array of objects of the class A.

Consider a while loop in which we increment the counter as follows:

public class A{
int counter = 0;
public static void main(String[] args){
A[] arr = new A[20];
int x = 0;
while(x<4){
arr[x] = new A(); //arr[] is array object
arr[x].counter += 1;
x++;
}
}
};

what is the final value of counter ? will it be the same for all array objects.

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Non-final Variable Inside Inner Class Defined In Different Method

Aug 9, 2014

this code won't compile because selected row must be declared as final because of it being defined outside the window listener. Is their anyway around this? If I make it final the first time that the variable is called it keeps it starting value until the GUI is closed.

butEdit.addActionListener (new ActionListener () {
@Override
public void actionPerformed (java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
int selectedRow = table.getSelectedRow ();

Program That Implement Final Method And Perform Arithmetic Operation

Mar 4, 2014

class A
{
public final int Add(int a,int b) {
return a+b;
}
}

class B
{
public static void main (String args[])
{
System.out.println(Model.Add(5,10));

}

This is what I have. I'm not sure if this even makes use of a final method. But when I run it I get an error saying cannot find symbol for line 13.

Call To A Method Signin With Two Parameters Name And Password

Nov 21, 2014

This code had no bug until I wrote down a call to a method signin with two parameters name and password. I need to know where exactly do I write down the deifintion of this method public void signin(String name, String password).

I have tried writing this several times and each times I get an annoying syntax error asking for more curly or round brackets.. There is only one error it shows after declaring this method . So I know that I am not writing it in the correct place, Do I keep it inside the action listener or outside. Everywhere am getting error. I want to be able to call methods and define them as I was doing in Bluej all this while.

import java.awt.EventQueue;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import java.awt.Font;
import javax.swing.JButton;

Method Parameters - Two Fields Of Type Double / Calculate Distance To Another Point

Oct 18, 2014

I've just been having a go at an exercise where I have to create and use a class called Point, with two fields of type double. I have to create some methods for it, one of which is a distanceTo(Point) method, that calculates the distance to another point. I've tried to keep the distanceTo(Point) method short so have created some other methods to use within the method. My question is about the getDistance() method that I've made. As you can see below, I've given it two parameters, which are references to values within two Point objects (this.x and otherPoint.x).

double distanceTo(Point otherPoint) {
double distanceX = getDistance(this.x, otherPoint.x);
double distanceY = getDistance(this.y, otherPoint.y);
return calculateLength(distanceX, distanceY);
}

Create A Method Called MirrorImage Which Takes Two Integer Arrays As Input Parameters

Jan 8, 2009

Create a method called mirrorImage, which takes two integer arrays as input parameters. You may assume that the two actual parameters have the same length. Your method should return true if the arrays are the reverse of each other. Otherwise mirrorImage should return false.

Examples:

data1:{1,2,3}
data2:{3,2,1}
==> true

[code].....

I'm pointing a place outside of the array or something

runtime error (line 8, column 0): java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 10

-> array.ArrayQuestions.mirrorImage()

Returning Multiple Variables From A Method

Nov 18, 2014

Now that I have figured out how to return a single variable from a method I am on to the next step, I need to return 2 or 3 variables from a method. I have searched the internet on how to do this to no avail (am I doing the wrong search? I do not know) but what I need to do is return a second (and eventually a third variable)

Here is what I have

private static String Engine() {
String engine = "";
int enginePrice = 0;
System.out.println("Choose a engine size:");
System.out.println("[4] cylinder");

[Code] .....

Which does not work.

Arithmetic Methods Whose Main Method Holds Two Integer Variables

Jan 15, 2015

a. Create an application named ArithmeticMethods whose main() method holds two integer variables. Assign values to the variables. In turn, pass each value to methods named displayNumberPlus10(), displayNumberPlus100(), and displayNumberPlus1000(). Create each method to perform the task its name implies.

b. Modify the ArithmeticMethods class to accept the values of the two integers from a user at the keyboard.

Why Does String Split Method Producing Arrays With Whitespace Variables

Jan 17, 2015

I used the string split method in the following lines of code like this:

String[] numbers = out.split("[^d.]", 0);
String[] operations = out.split("[.d()]", 0);

When out is equal to the String "2x2.5", the array operations ends up looking like this when it is printed using the toString method:

[, , , x]

As you can see, before the array element x, there are three String variables which only contain whitespace. Why does this occur, and how can I prevent this from happening?
