Extracting Numbers In Word Format From A String Of Text

Aug 7, 2014

I am trying to do is extract numbers that are in word format in a long String, i.e. a song, and return each of their numerical values, in order to add them all up. So I'd like to calculate the sum of all of the numbers in the text. This has to work for any piece of text and for all numbers up to a trillion.

So I broke the string down into tokens and stored them in a String []. And I divided up the possible numbers in word format into:

LARGEST: thousand, million, billion, trillion
HUNDRED: hundred
TENS: twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety
UNITS: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
SPECIALS: ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen

I believe that these are the only words that it will need to recognize. I began reading the tokenized string from right to left and then when I came across a unit, special or tens as the first number I hit, I would then set it's numerical value and check if the word before was also a number and whether to add or multiply etc. i.e. First number hit is a two, if the number before is sixty, then I would just add it to sixty and check the word before that and so on.

However, when implementing it, it seems like an extremely long way around it. How I could implement this in a swifter manner? An example of it working would be:

"Nine Million rockets turned Three times and met Twenty Two Aliens", it would extract, Twenty Two as 2, then 20 = 22, then extract Three as 3, and then Nine Million as 1,000,000 x 9 = 9,000,000

9,000,000 + 22 + 3 = 9,000,025

AutoCorrect / Replace A Word That Is Similar To A Word In File Text

Mar 13, 2015

The intentions of this program is to prompt a user to enter a file name, and then reads the file. The program will prompt the user to enter a word that needs to be corrected. So lets say I have a text file containing "My name is OP and I Like goind to the Park!" I want to change "goind" to "going",

Now, my second method "isSimilar" executes a similar word with more than one same letter and same length, but I dont know how to execute that whole thing in my third method "correctThisLine" . How I can call that isSimilar method and read in that text file and change that word into that?

import java.util.*;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileNotFoundException;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class WahidMuhammadA3Q2{
String fileName = "AutoCorrectMe.txt";
public static void main (String [] args){

Extracting Part Of A String?

Oct 13, 2014

Okay So I am creating an application but I'm not sure how to get certain parts of the string. I have read In a file as such:

*tp*|21394398437984|163600
*2*|AAA|1234567894561236|STOP|20140527|Success||Automated|DSPRN1234567
*2*|AAA|1234567894561237|STOP|20140527|Success||Automated|DPSRN1234568
*3*|2

I need to read the lines beggining with *2* so I done:

s = new Scanner(new BufferedReader(new FileReader("example.dat")));
while (s.hasNext()) {
String str1 = s.nextLine ();
if(str1.startsWith("*2*")){
System.out.print(str1);
}
}

So this will read the whole line I'm fine with that, Now my issue is I need to extract the 2nd line beggining with numbers the 4th with numbers the 5th with success and the 7th(DPSRN). I was thinking about using a String dilemeter with | how to extract them once i've used the dilemeter.

Java Algorithm - Convert String Of Numbers Into Text

Feb 18, 2014

I need a Java algorithm that converts a string of numbers into text. It is related to how a phone keypad works where pressing 2 three times creates the letter "c" or pressing 4 one time creates the letter "g". For example a string of numbers "44335557075557777" should decode where 0 equates to a space.

Binary Tree - Storing Each Word As String And Int Frequency For Each Time Word Occurs

Apr 27, 2015

I have built a binary tree, from a file. In each node, I am storing each word as a string, and an int frequency for each time the word occurs. For the assignment, I need to find how many words occur only once in the file. I wrote the program, but for some reason I am getting a number different from what my professor is expecting.

As far as I know, this file has loaded into the tree correctly, because all of my other answers in the assignment are correct. What am I doing wrong?

public void findUnique() {
System.out.println("There are " + findUniqueWords(root, 0) + " unique words.");
}
private int findUniqueWords(Node subTree, int uniqueCount) {
// Base Case: At the end of the branch
if(subTree == null){
return uniqueCount;

Extracting A String From HTML Source Code?

Apr 8, 2015

I want to extract a specific String from HTML, specifically, I want to extract a String from in between <...>

So far, I've got this

package main;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
public class HTMLGrabber {
static String allOneString = "";

[code]....

The problem I have is when I change the last parameter in this line:

System.out.println("And the Keywords are:

" +allOneString.substring(allOneString.lastIndexOf("meta name="keywords" content=") + 30, allOneString.indexOf("Fictional History">")+17));

to

System.out.println("And the Keywords are:

" +allOneString.substring(allOneString.lastIndexOf("meta name="keywords" content=") + 30, allOneString.indexOf("">")));

i.e. the generic alternative, I get this error message:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -366
at java.lang.String.substring(Unknown Source)
at main.HTMLGrabber.main(HTMLGrabber.java:45)

Is there a better and simple way to extract a substring?

Using Substring Methods To Format Numbers Between 1,000 And 999,999

Mar 20, 2015

Write a program that reads number between 1,000 and 999,999 from the user and prints it without a comma separating the thousands. Read the input as string. Find the length of the string and use the substring to break it into two pieces. Do not include the comma. You can then concatenate using the + symbol to reassemble without the comma. For example if the number is 123,456. First would equal 123 and second would equal 456. noCommaNumber - 123456.

I do not think it is required to only allow numbers in that range in the code. My question is how to get the first half of the number before the comma in a string to make the last line work. What I think is not doing what I need is the line String first = numberIn.substring(numberIn.indexOf(",", 0)); This is just the last thing I tried.Getting the second half is done using IndexLastOf method in the substring class javaforumquest.jpg

Capitalize Second Word Of A String

Feb 16, 2014

So the exercise I'm working on says to have the user enter their name and the program will output their name with the last name in all caps. i made it work BUT the only way i could figure it out was to ask for the first and last names separately creating two strings rather than one.

Of course I want to make it work how it's supposed to (with one string) so that I'm learning. I'm just having trouble conceptualizing how exactly (with varying lengths of names) to tell the program to only capitalize the second word... at first I thought create a substring beginning with the first letter of the last name and ending with the last...but again, therein lies the issue of varying name lengths.

is there a way to create a substring that beginIndex's at the first "space"? then i could just leave the endIndex parameter empty and it would take the whole word into a new string. and from there utilize toUpperCase to the new string?

Here's my code asking for the first and last names separately.

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

For example, "AAA-B", where the A's are a digit 0-9, the - is always in the same spot, and B is a letter but only from A-M. All of this for a single instance variable.

Is this possible? How could I go about doing this.
