Formatting Answers To 2 Decimal Places
Sep 8, 2014
I've been scanning forums for answers to this problem, but most deal with simple programming that you might find in a classroom (i.e. "System.out.printf") which will not work in the GUI I'm attempting to complete. Here's the tale of the tape:
The GUI is a price calculator I'm developing for my company that takes input from drop-down menus and several Jtextfields and calculates the answer based on the values contained within each. It's completely done (and functional), so I'd rather not change too much if at all possible. Because I'm dealing with decimal values then I'm getting 9 decimal places in the output JLabel, though. In order to display the answer, I'm using a series of "totalPrice.setText(..." declarations.
Because there is a fair amount of text and the values in the calculation are constantly changing, is there a way to 'simply' format the output JLabel to display only 2 decimals? Or is there an alternative solution that would work--say with a JTextfield instead--without having to completely re-code the calculator?

I can often write a recursive backtracking solution, but don't know how to cache the answers into an appropriate array.
For example:
Java Code:
public static int max(int[] costs, int index, int total, int shares) {
if(index >= costs.length) {
return total;
}
int buy = max(costs, index + 1, total - costs[index], shares + 1); // buy one stock
int sell = max(costs, index + 1, total + shares * costs[index], 0); // sell all stocks
return Math.max(total, Math.max(buy, sell)); // compares between buy, sell, and doing nothing
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
This is a dynamic programming exercise, but I have no idea what dimensions the dp array should be (I was thinking maybe dp[index][total][shares], but that seemed like overkill). Is this just because my understanding of recursion isn't solid enough or am I missing something else?

I'm using eclipse. I'm going to get straight to the point and give all the info I can, if the values in the first code box are used, shouldn't these values be left after all in the second box is done:
remainder=23, arr[0]=100, div=23/10=2.3, whole=2, and decimal=3?
When I use this code, div comes out to be just (2.0).
Java Code:
int leng=10;
arr[0]=123; //int
arr[1]=100; //int mh_sh_highlight_all('java'); Java Code: if (arr[0]!=arr[1]){
int remainder=arr[0]-arr[1];
arr[0]=arr[0]-remainder;
double div=remainder/leng; //double div=Double.valueOf(remainder/leng);
int whole=(int) Math.floor(div);
int decimal=(int) ((div-whole)*leng); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
I'm not sure were I'm going wrong in how div is being calculated, but I ultimately need div to be 2.3.
I've also used the second option commented out which still gives (2.0).

Here is my code and i want to convert number into 2 decimal but this code not give me result how to check my code.
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class showtime{
public static void main(String[] args){
double total_mili=System.currentTimeMillis();
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,total_mili, "Total milisecond",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
double seconds=total_mili/60;
double sec=(double)(seconds * 100) / 100.000;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,seconds, "Total Second",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,sec, "Total Second",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}
}

The thing my coding for sudoku is not working for few inputs... it works fine with all its value initially at 0, but when i place numbers more than 4 at random places it stops responding (it doesn't show any value).
My assignment is to get a solved sudoku for these values:
//Sample Input:
{0,2,7,3,8,0,0,1,0},
{0,1,0,0,0,6,7,3,5},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,2,9},
{3,0,5,6,9,2,0,8,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,6,0,1,7,4,5,0,3},
{6,4,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{9,5,1,8,0,0,0,7,0},
{0,8,0,0,6,5,3,4,0}
My Current code
public class Sudoku {
static int userGrid[][]=new int[][]
{{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0},
{0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0}};//[horizontal][vertical]
static int grid[][]=new int[9][9];//the grid that the program experiments on
public static void main(String[] args) {
[Code] ....

How do you format an arraylist?
Mine looks like this:
[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?> <DefEnv id="Dev">, <Envt id="Test">, , <DB id="DM">,
But I want it to look like: I'd prefer if the '[' , '<>' and ',' were not on them also but I'm not too bothered about that bit.
[<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<DefEnv id="Dev">,
<Envt id="Test">, ,
<DB id="DM">, ]

Having the following fields for my money class.
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Money {
//Fields for money will hold dollars and cents
private long dollars;
private long cents;
My task is to use those fields and make a toString method that returns them like a dollars sign. For instance, if there are 32 dollars and 40 cents, then in my String method I have to return something similar to this "$32.40."
I have already tried some of the methods, but they don't seem to work fine.
public String toString() {
DecimalFormat formatter=new DecimalFormat("$#0");
DecimalFormat formatCents=new DecimalFormat(".00");
return formatter.format(dollars)+ formatCents.format(cents);
}
Code:
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Money
{
//Fields for money will hold dollars and cents
private long dollars;
private long cents;
[Code] ....
Actually changed a little on my code and I believe strongly this should work; however, doesn't seem to. In my demo,
public class Dem {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Money myMoney=new Money(7.10);
System.out.print(myMoney.toString());
}
}
I pass this, but I get "$700.00" as the answer... confused...
My calculation is wrong in the toString method, but still the cents do not appear to be showing.
