Flip Function - Making Coin Stop On Random Heads Or Tails

Nov 19, 2014

I cannot figure out why my buttons don't work. I believe my problem is in the flip function. I am very new to programming and I am about as good at code logic as I am at real logic lol. Also I am lost on how to go about making the coin stop on a random heads or tails.

Coin cF;
void setup() {
size (600, 600);
cF = new Coin(0,0,0);
}
void draw() {
background(100,100,100);
//Coin(int lX,int lY, int cSize)
//location(int l_x, int l_y)
//flip()

Write A Static Method That Simulates Flip Of Weighted Coin

Apr 22, 2015

I am supposed to write a static method that simulates a flip of a weighted coin by returning either heads or tails each time it is called. The coin is twice as likely to turn up heads as tails. My idea was to of course use a random class

Random flip = new random

and somehow initialize it so 3 numbers are called and create if statements so that when 0 and 1 are called heads returns and when 3 is called tails is.How do I put all this together?

Making Coin Star Simulator

Oct 13, 2014

I have been tasked with creating a coin Star simulator. This accomplishes which accomplishes the following tasks:

Prompts the user to enter coins:

(example inputs): (Note, these can't be like a numerical input followed by a word input, it needs to be one line)

4 quarters
3 dimes
0 pennies

All of which would be allowed inputs.

If an incorrect format is used it should tell the user to use the correct format of number space cointype

After every new input it should give a running total of the current money the system has stored.

this loop should continue until the user enters the phrase "finish"

Then, this system should output the money (minus 9.1% fee) in the largest denominations possible (up to $20)

So if the total came to $ 131.33 (after fee)

It should output:

6 twenties 1 tens 0 fives 1 singles 1 quarter 0 dimes 1 nickle 3 pennies.

and then maybe some cheeky text about how the machine stole your money.

The actual coding for me however is very difficult as I really don't know how to convert the string input from the user into usable numerical and substrings for the calculations.

I have some basic skeleton code worked out, but its only designed to run once.
 
import java.util.Scanner;
 public class CoinStar {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
public static void main(String[] args) {
/** this first section is supposed to take the string from the user and separate it into two substrings,
* one integer, one word string
*

Permute Random Series Of Numbers Using Java Rand Function

Jan 26, 2014

So I have a program for a project that permutes a random series of numbers using Java's Rand function. Basically I use a seed and a number of items I want in the arrangement of numbers, and the program makes a permutation with no two numbers being repeated. Only arrays can be applied to it, so I've been hard at work finding a solution.

Here's the code so far:

public static int permutation[];
public static void permute(int numOfItems, int seed){
permutation=new int[numItems];
Random rand = new Random(seed);
permutation[0]=rand.nextInt(numItems-1);

[Code] ......

So basically I'm wanting the program to make a randomized list of numbers from the number of items I pass to the Permute method with no duplicates. I'm having some level of success with what I have written, as it gives me a randomized list when printing the output, but for some reason the first for statement in code never terminates fully, but instead runs indefinitely when generating the last integer.

For example, if I want to put 10 with a seed of 0 into it and make a list from 0-9, it will print 74283510, which is only 8 different integers. permutation[0] is manually set at the beginning of the method, which accounts for one more, but that's still only a list of 9, so I'm just wondering why the last integer is not being generated and why the program keeps looping and not terminating? I'm know for sure it's something I'm overlooking.

Random Shuffle Array Of Card Objects Which Does Function Of Deck

Oct 26, 2014

I have to random shuffle an array of Card Objects which does the funcion of a deck. Heres the code:

Java Code:

public void barajear(){
int j;
for (int i=0;i<52;i++){
j=Baraja.random(51);
if (this.mazo[j]==null){
this.mazo[j]=this.arreglo[i];
}else{
--i;
}
}
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

so bassically theres an array called "arreglo" which has the cards in order and the function "random" its an rng of numbers from 0 to 51.what i'm trying to do it's to take the cards from the ordenated array and put them randomly in the other but only if it's empty.(the array "mazo" has alredy been initialized with null).it worked at first, but now, after compiling succesfully i tried to run it and the cmd just...

Java Random Road Cross - Generate Random Number Between One To Ten

Dec 8, 2014

The program I'm supposed to create generates a random number between one to ten. Then the program is to ask me if I wish to cross the road. If you choose to cross, the outcomes for 0-2 are "You crossed safely." For 3-5, 75% of the time it should say "RIP you got run over", and 35% of the time it should say "You crossed the street." For 6-8, 60% of the time it should say you made it.", and 40% of the time it should say "You died". For 9-10, it should say "RIP".

So far I have gotten the random number generation part working. I have up to here:

import java.util.Random;
public class test4 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Random random = new Random();
for(int i =0; i < 1; i++){
int num = random.nextInt(10) + 1;
System.out.println("The number of cars on the street are: " + num + "Do you wish to cross the road?");
}
}

Write A Class Called Coin Which Will Be Used By A Program Called CountFlips

May 1, 2014

i am trying to write a coin program:Write a class called Coin which will be used by a program called CountFlips.

1. The class, is an object created from this program. It is composed of data values and methods. It should contain a main method and should output the number of flips done (an integer that will be read from the user), the number of heads and tails that occur.

2. The CountFlip class will flip a coin multiple times and counts the number of ‘heads’ and ‘tails’ that result. This class should have a method called flip() of type void; a method called isHead() of type Boolean and a toString() method that will return the current face of the coin as a string.

So i created 2 classes, one called Coin.java & the other CountFlips.java,

PHP Code: package test;
public class Coin {
private final int heads = 0;
private final int tails = 1;
private int facetype;
private int flips;

How To Stop Program When Entering Certain Number

Dec 2, 2014

how many integers the user wants to use. The user will enter for example a 4. The user inputs a 2, 4, 6, and 10. So then we get our outputs...Then the code will ask if you want to run this program again. My question is, if the user inputs a -1 for example 2, 4, 6, -1....the code will not continue. I wanted to use a while loop, such as while (scores != -1) but it doesn't work.

Enter the amount of integers you want to use4
Intenger # 1 2
Intenger # 2 4
Intenger # 3 6
Intenger # 4 10
You entered 2.0 4.0 6.0 10.0
Average = 5.5
Variance = 8.75
Standard Deviation = 2.96
Do you have another set of numbers?

Play / Stop And Loop Three Different Songs

I am making a project that should play, stop, and loop three different songs (not at the same time). I am calling this SoundPlayer class from my main class:

public class SoundPlayer {
List<AudioInputStream> songs = new ArrayList<AudioInputStream>();
int currentSong, currentPlayType;

When my class calls setPlayType(2), which should make it play, I get the following runtime error:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at SoundPlayer.playSong(SoundPlayer.java:32)
at SoundPlayer.setPlayType(SoundPlayer.java:64)
at MainPanel$AListener.actionPerformed(MainPanel.java:60)

Line 32 is if(clip.isOpen()), but I'm pretty sure I instantiated clip properly in the constructor.

How To Make Animation Stop Randomly

Java-8 :: How To Stop Infinite Stream

May 26, 2014

I have a Stream instace which produces values using an infinite Supplier (it supplies values taken from an electronic sensor -- so unless the battery is low, the sensor will provide "for ever").

The stream is processed by a Collector using Stream.collect() (e. g. imagine that the values from the sensor should be averaged; in fact what it does is a bit more compliacted maths).

The problem is that the collector does not produce a result but hangs up, as the supplier does never stop providing more sensor values.

So what I need is a limitation rule that stops the stream. While there is a Stream.limit(long) method, it actually does not solve my problem as in my case it is not practical to stop after a particular count, while I actually want to stop streaming when the sensor value exceeds a particular limit etc. (hence, voids an arbitrary rule).
 
To sum up, what I need is Stream.limit(Predicate), i. e. the stream will stopped once the predicate becomes true.
 
Unfortunately I did not find anything like that in JRE 8.
 
Is that planned for JRE 8.1 or JRE 9.0? Or is there a known (and sophisticated) workaround?
