Getting Wrong Values When Calculating Perimeter And Area?

Mar 22, 2015

I've been given a school assignment that reads, "Rewrite the main class Geometry so it takes in the dimensions for the triangle and ellipse as user inputs and create a Triangle and an Ellipse class. Use the appropriate variable types, constants, variable names and computational formulas.

Triangle class will have a computePerimeter and a computeArea methods Ellipse class will have a computeArea method Create Report class

• Create a method createReport that takes the values returned from Triangle and Ellipse and combines them in the following message and displays it. Format the values so that they have 2 decimals.

“The triangle has a perimeter of [perimeter] with an area of [area] while the ellipse has an area of [area]”

• Create a method switchReport that takes the original string from createReport and changes the message to display using the available methods in the String class

“The ellipse has an area of [area] while the triangle has an area of [area] with a perimeter of [perimeter]”"

I've run into a problem when creating the createReport method. Everytime i run it i get incorrect values for the perimeter and area (namely i get zero every time).

my code is as follows:

public class Triangle
{
public double base;
public double height;
public double hypotenuse;
private double tArea;
private double perimeter;
  public Triangle()
{
base = 0;
height = 0;
hypotenuse = 0;

[code]....

For the triangle class and

public class Report {
  Triangle tri2 = new Triangle();
Ellipse eli2 = new Ellipse();
  public Report() { 

public void createReport() {
System.out.println("The triangle has a perimeter of "+tri2.computePerimeter() +" with an area of " +tri2.computeTArea() +" while the ellipse has an area of " +eli2.computeEArea() );
}

for the report class.the Geometry class allows you to input values and if i skip the report and simply print the perimeter and area they are correct. However with the report class it simply gives me zeros.

Input Length And Width - Calculate And Print Perimeter And Area Of A Rectangle

Feb 16, 2015

Create a program to input the length and width of a rectangle and calculate and print the perimeter and area of the rectangle. To do this you will need to write a Rectangle class and a separate runner class. Your program should include instance variables, constructors, an area method, a perimeter method, a toString method, accessor and mutator methods, and user input. Your runner class should include 3 Rectangle objects. One default rectangle, one coded rectangle, and one user input rectangle. All methods should be tested in the runner class.

This is my code:

import java.util.Scanner;
 public class Rectangle {
double length;
double width;
public Rectangle() {

[Code] ...

What have I done??? I have created this program using the few different resources with which I am supplied, but I don't understand the resources.

Calculating Area Of A Rectangle (height Multiply By Width)

Mar 19, 2014

I was suppose to create a simple Java program for calculating the area of a rectangle (height * width). Then check the user’s input, and make sure that they enter in a positive integer, and letting them try again if they enter in a negative number. (I'm not sure how to get them to try again.

I am suppose to use an "if" statements and indeterminate loops to achieve the solution. The program will have the following requirements:

1. Ask the user to enter in both a height and width (as an integer)
2. If the user enters in a negative number, display an error
3. If the user enters in a negative number, give them another chance to enter in the correct value
4. Calculate the area and display to the screen once two positive integers have been entered.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class RectangleAreaCalc
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int length;
int width;
int area;

Keep Getting Wrong Variable Values?

Oct 24, 2014

Whenever I run this I get:

There are not enough funds to do that

Balance: $0.0
Monthly Interest Rate: 0.375%
Account Start Date: Fri Oct 24 08:03:40 EDT 2014

I assumed that this is because the constructor Account(); is setting the variables to 0 every time the program runs even though I'm passing other variables through to methods and constructors. I've looked up similar programs and this is how it's done though. The steps to my homework say to create a no-arg constructor Account() that creates a default(0) account Id and balance. What did I do wrong?

import java.util.Date;
public class Account {
 private int Id;
private double balance;
private double annualInterestRate;
private Date dateCreated = new Date();
 public static void main (String [] args){
//Objects of Account to get non-static methods

JSF :: ValueChangeEvent NewValue Method Giving Wrong Value When Component Values Change Indirectly

Aug 1, 2014

My form looks like this:

<h:form>
<h:panelGrid columns="2" style="margin-bottom:10px" cellpadding="5">
<p:outputLabel for="filetype" value="FileType: " />
<p:selectOneRadio valueChangeListener="#{selectView.changeServerAndSignmethod}" onchange="submit()" id="filetype" value="#{selectView.filetype}">
<f:selectItems value="#{selectView.filetypes}" itemLabel="#{filetype}" itemValue="#{filetype}" />
</p:selectOneRadio>
<p:outputLabel for="signmethod" value="Sign Method: " />
<p:selectOneMenu valueChangeListener="#{selectView.changeServers}" onchange="submit()" id="signmethod" value="#{selectView.signmethod}">
<f:selectItems value="#{selectView.signmethods}" itemLabel="#{signmethod}" itemValue="#{signmethod}" />

[code]....

As you can see there are two listener in my xhtml file one for filetype and other for signmethod. When filtype changes signmethod has to change which in turn changes servers. And if user changes signmethod using dropdown then also server should change. But my problem is when filetype changes, both the listeners are called, as signmethod also changea but the value in event object (e.getNewValue()) is not the new one but old one. Here is the SelectView Bean.This is the static initialisation part just for checking the output at the end of question.

static {
initFiletypes.add("Windows");
initFiletypes.add("Mobile");
initFiletypes.add("Mac");
initFiletypes.add("Solaris");
initFiletypes.add("Jar");

windowsSignmethods.add("Microsoft");
windowsSignmethods.add("Driver");
windowsSignmethods.add("Driver_Pagehash");
windowsSignmethods.add("HDR");
windowsSignmethods.add("Java2");
windowsSignmethods.add("Javame");
windowsSignmethods.add("MicrosftApps");

[code]....

I am changing servers in changeServerAndSignmethod by selecting first signmethod from signmethod arraylist which is giving correct result. But changeServers is also getting fired taking wrong event object's newValue method and changing servers to wrong values. When changeServers is fired bydirectly changing signmethod, by dropdown, it gives correct result. Is there a way I can stop changeServers to fire when the change came from changing filetypes rather than direct change by user on signmethod selectOneMenu.

Calculating Values And Passing From Two-dimensional Array

Jan 29, 2014

Long story short: The program takes user values (temperature) and converts them to the opposite (C >> F / F >> C)

I originally started this program with three separate arrays but then decided that it would be a good opportunity to use a two-dimensional array and one other.

The two-dimensional array has 2 rows, 10 columns. The second is a normal String array ...

Java Code:

String[][] myTemperatures = new String[2][9];
String inputAssembly[] = new String[9]; mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

I prompt the user for to enter temperature values, using a GUI and jbutton to distinguish F/C. Each time the user clicks 'continue', the values are stored into the two-dimensional array. One row holds the temperature, the other holds the C or F designation.

Java Code:

// CONTINUE BUTTON CLICK ACTIONS
class ContinueButtonListener implements ActionListener{
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
input = view.getTempValue();

[Code] ....

This is where I am experiencing the trouble and I cannot seem to get the Debug to work properly here. When the two-dimensional array is full OR the user clicks 'calculate' instead of 'continue', the Calculate event is performed via an ActionListener.

Java Code:

// CALCULATE BUTTON CLICK ACTIONS
class CalculateButtonListener implements ActionListener{
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String hold;
Double temp;

And I get a ton of errrors ...

Java Code:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "[Ljava.lang.String;@7441b1fd"
at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Unknown Source)

[Code] ....

I imagine the issue lies within how I am handling the two-dimensional array in the CALCULATE event and/or converting the String[][] to String then parsing to an Integer.

Would this be better done is separate arrays (not using one two-dimensional, but storing 34C, 45F ... in one. I think this would be difficult for me to parse for conversions).

BinarySearch Gone Wrong

Jan 25, 2015

Searching methods and sorting methods, I tried some (SelectionSort, InsertionSort, BubbleSort, SequentialSearch) and they all work, but I am having problems right now with my BinarySearch method. The problem(s) I have right now is that the method is only finding some numbers in my array, such as 1 and 8, but when I search for the other ones it only buffers and the program has to be stopped manually, since it doesn't print anything. I tried rearranging the while-loop's circumstances but that didn't work.

how to optimize my coding for future tasks so I dont get the same problem(s).

public class BinarySearch {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int[]A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9};
int searchedNumber = 3;

JRE Uses Wrong Timezone

Jun 26, 2015

I have a problem with timezone in my java application. My current/correct timezone is "Europe/Berlin" or CEST. When I type the following command as my user I get the correct output back:
 
$ date "+%Z %z"
CEST +0200
 
But when I run my java application it is using the timezone GMT+0100. I have executed the following Java code to verify:
 
import java.util.Date;
import java.util.TimeZone;
public class TimeTest {
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        long time = System.currentTimeMillis();

[Code] ....
 
When I run it the following output is generated:

Current time in milliseconds = 1435319087443 => Fri Jun 26 12:44:47 GMT+01:00 2015
Current time zone: GMT+01:00
Fri Jun 26 12:44:47 GMT+01:00 2015
 
So where does java get its timezone from? It's different from the default system timezone.
 
I am running on Redhat 6.6 with Java 1.7.0_79
 
java version "1.7.0_79"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_79-b15)

Apache POI Method Returning Wrong Value

public int getDataRange() throws IOException{
int rowCount = 0;
Iterator<Row> rows = sheet.rowIterator();
while(rows.hasNext()){
HSSFRow row = (HSSFRow) rows.next();
rowCount++;

Wrong Version Appearing For Java Command

Sep 8, 2011

I am a novice to coding and very new to Java. It appears that I am having a similar problem as the user above "Scott Allen". With a few exceptions. My issue is that when I run the command "javac" from the command prompt I am receiving the same error:- "javac is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file"

After reading the comments from above I have configured my System Variables "Path" and "JAVA_HOME" to match the following:
JAVA_HOME: C:Program FilesJavajdk1.6.0_21in
Path: %JAVA_HOME%in; [First Variable]

There is no "Path" User variable on my computer, although there is a "TEMP" and "TMP" in the User Environment variables.

Currently I have the following Java related software installed:
- C:Program FilesJavajre6
- C:Program FilesJavajdk1.6.0_21
- C:Program FilesSunJavaDB
- C:Program FilesEclipse-jee-galileo-3.5.2

I have confirmed the "javac.exe" is located within the in directory of Javajdk.1.6.0_21..When I send "Java -version" to the command prompt the following is returned: java version "1.6.0_26"..Immediately I noticed that the version is wrong, but don't know why or what to do. Below is the output from the command "Java" using the command prompt.

Usage: java [-options] class [args...]
(to execute a class)
or java [-options] -jar jarfile [args...]
(to execute a jar file)

where options include:

-client to select the "client" VM
-server to select the "server" VM
-hotspot is a synonym for the "client" VM [deprecated]
The default VM is client.

Adding Message That A Wrong Character Has Been Entered?

Nov 6, 2014

So the idea of this program is that you enter a number, it will give out a radius ... After the radius is given then, it will ask if you want to continue yes or no, if yes then it will repeat the process. If you select no then you will be greeted with a message saying "programme complete, See you later" ...

This all works fine and the code is below... however I want to add a pop up message if someone enters an invalid Character (anything that is not a number) ...

Get Wrong Type Error When Calling Methods

Apr 21, 2015

Basically I'm trying to code this program but I keep getting error can't be applied to given types. I know it has to do with my method trying to be called by an array, but I'm just kinda lost.

Write a program that prompts the user to input cash amounts and use a method to calculate the average amount for a week given 7 inputs of daily cash intake amounts for a cash register. Use an array to store the values. Recall that average is the sum of the values divided by the number of values. The method should take argument(s) of type double and return average weekly cash amount as a double.

Make sure you test your program using the test data given below and calls the averageCash() method defined above passing in the values. Verify that the input values are greater than or equal to 0. Negative numbers are not allowed. Output the values used and the averageCash value.

import java.util.*;
public class ArrayHandout {
public static void main(String args[]) {
int[] a=new int[6];
Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);

Wrong Entries Deleting In Array List

Aug 15, 2014

I have a problem with this application , I have a button that allows users to delete entry's from the array list, but i've noticed when i go back and click display entry's the correct entry has not been deleted.....for example if i enter a,1,2 then b,1,2, then c,1,2 in fields, then delete c,1,2 when i actually go to display the data entered a,1,2 will be gone not the one i entered.

So it seems to be deleting the entry at index 0 of the array list no matter what and not the chosen item..Delete Button Code

private void deleteBtnActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt)
{
if (numTf.getText().equals("") || nameTf.getText().equals("") || yearTf.getText().equals(""))
{

JavaFX 2.0 :: BarChart Wrong Data Displayed

Aug 28, 2014

I'm using BarChart and I've a very strange problem. Is not very simple create a test case to understand where is the problem.

In the first image is displayed a bar with the value of 2 but as you can see the y axis is not correct.

In the second image the value displayed is 4 but the y axis is completely busted.

Important thing: In my real app I change data of the chart every time the user change a combobox value (the period).
 
First image
Second image
 
This is a test case that simulate what I'm doing in my app with the only difference that data are fetched remotely with an async request in my real app.
 
Chart.java

public class Chart extends Application implements Initializable {
    @FXML
    private BarChart<String, Integer> chart;
    private ObjectProperty<ObservableList<Series<String, Integer>>> seriesProperty = new SimpleObjectProperty<ObservableList<Series<String, Integer>>>();

[Code] .....

Unfortunately with this simple test case the chart display correctly data.

I am trying to connect to Sql Server database using Oracle UCP with sqljdbc4-3.0 JDBC driver for Sql Server,with different ports and instances.

– the issue is with the port being ignored in the server string.

For example, using port 1440 connects to the default instance (which is on port 1433) rather than MSSQLINSTANCE1 which is on 1440.

Below are Server hosts used.

sql005.sqlasoftware.com (connects correctly to the default instance)
