String Split Method To Tokenize String Of Characters Inputted?
Sep 27, 2014I am currently trying to make a calculator in Java. I want to use the String split method to tokenize the string of characters inputted. I thought I was using the String split method wrongly, because I had surrounded the characters I wanted to delimit with square brackets. However, when I removed the square brackets, the code threw an exception when I pressed the equal button. The exception was a PatternSyntaxException exception. Am I using the String split method wrongly? And why is the exception thrown? Here is my code:
import javax.swing.*;//import the packages needed for gui
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import static java.lang.Math.*;

View Replies View RelatedHow To Randomly Select A String In Array Based On Corresponding Number
Dec 21, 2014I'm trying to generate a random word from the array that I have made including the words by making it corresponding with a randomly generated number. So for example, if the number generated is 0, then the word that the person has to guess would be "AUNT". How would I transfer the randomly generated number from one method into the array method to get the word the person has to guess?
Write a program called Word Guessing Game. Open the file FourLetterWords.txt and write the contents into an array of Strings (the file has 87 words in it). Then use a randomly generated number between 0 and 86 to select a word. The player will then try to guess the word selected by the game. The player is allowed 7 tries, if the player does not guess the word on the 7th try he/she losses. Display the letter of the word as they are guessed in the correct order, you will also display the incorrect letters. The game is over when:
- The player completes the word, or guesses the whole word correctly.
- The player does not guess the word in seven tries.
The player must also be allowed to terminate the game.
The game must have at least 5 classes:
- Main Class
- Class to return a random integer between 0 and 86.
- Class to return a populated array of 87, 4 letter words.
- Class to return a character that the player enters from the keyboard.
- Class to display both the correctly guessed letters and the incorrect letters.
My code (it is not complete, my attempt to do what I am trying to do is obviously not working.)
import java.util.Scanner;
public class WordGuessingGame {
public static void main(String[] args) {
final int NUMBER_OF_WORDS = 87;
RandomWordGenerator.random(NUMBER_OF_WORDS);

Ignore Certain Characters In A String
Apr 5, 2014I'm trying to loop through a string and depending on the character, add a JLabel to a game. The problem is the character 'L' represents a lantern but is also used in the reply the game gives which is "LOOKREPLY". I've tried to use some code to ignore the LOOKREPLY bit but it's not working. Here's what I've tried.
else if(message.charAt(i) == 'L' && message.charAt(i+1) != 'O' | message.charAt(i+1) == 'Y'){
JLabel localLabel = new JLabel();
localLabel.setIcon(lantern);
panel.add(localLabel);
panel.revalidate();
panel.repaint();
But the first image on all of the JLabels is always a lantern, which is what L represents. As it's only 1 lantern this leads me to believe that it's ignoring the first 'L' but for some reason it's not ignoring the 'L' at the end of LOOKREPLY.

Getting Characters Into Array From A String
Oct 17, 2014As of right now my code can take characters from a string to an array from a string like "ABCD" but the project says I have to take it from a string like "A B C D" how can I correct my code to grab the characters from a single spaced line?
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter Order of Cars:");
String carsInput = sc.next();
int x = carsInput.length();
int[] cars = new int[x];
for (int i=0; i < cars.length; i++) {
cars[i] = carsInput.charAt(i)-64;
}
Combining Characters Into A String
Sep 10, 2014So what my program is supposed to do is take a number inputted by the use and then take a phrase. It then changes that phrases letter by the number inputted prior for example if you type in 2 as your int and Hello as your phrase you should get JGNNQ, which i can do. but the problem is that when i run it, it outputs like this:
J
G
N
N
Q
As separate characters how can I combine those characters in 1 string so it looks like JGNNQ? this is my code
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Dcod_MAin {
private static final Object[] String = null;
public static void main(String[] args){
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
System.out.println("What is the day of the month");
int shift;

Removing Specific Characters From A String
May 7, 2014I just need to write a simple program/function that replaces certain letters from a string (i.e. censor( "college", "aeiou" ) returns "cllg"). I'm trying to get the code right first, and then write a function for it.I basically just thought that I would iterate over the first string, and once I had the first character, I would then iterate over the second string, to see if the character exists. I'm getting a "dead code" error on my second loop because I put the second "break."
public class ap {
public static void main(String [] args){
String s = "Hello";
String s2 = "aeiou";

How To Check A String For NON-Alphabetic Characters
Oct 2, 2014I have to check a String input from the user in the form of firstName lastName (i.e. John Smith). I have to check for an exception called NonAlphabeticCharacterException that gets thrown if there is anything but a number in that string. This is what I have right now but should I create an array of char for the alphabet and then check the whole string for non alphabetic characters?
for(int i=0; i<name.length(); i++) {
if()){
throw new NonAlphabeticCharactersException("Non-alphabetic character found");
}

Characters From String In Alphabetic Order Using Quicksort
Oct 1, 2014I am trying to do a program that takes all of the chars from a string and orders them in alphabetical order. It works fine, but when a is a last letter of a string it isn't being sorted.
Example: bcba = bbca, omnibus = bimnous (here u is in wrong place)
Here is my code:
public class sorty{
public static void sort(char[] a, int low, int high){
int i = low;
int j = high;
if (j - i < 2) return;
int m = (j+i)/2;

String Characters Display First Three Multiple Times
Sep 26, 2014I am trying below challenge to display first three characters three times if the size of the string is greater than 3.
Say if i send hello i should get helhelhel
if i send xyz i should get xyzxyzxyz
I wrote as below
public String front3(String str) {
if(str.length()==3){
return str+str+str;
}
if(str.length()>3){
String str2=new String(new char[]{str.charAt(0),str.charAt(1),str.charAt(2)});
return str2;
}
}
I am getting error as below
Error:public String front3(String str) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This method must return a result of type String
Possible problem: the if-statement structure may theoretically allow a run to reach the end of the method without calling return. Consider adding a last line in the method return some_value; so a value is always returned.
Byte Array To String Gives Strange Characters
Jun 30, 2014In this simple example, I print a byte array to String:
Java Code:
import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import java.nio.charset.Charset;
public class PrintByteArray {
public void print(){
System.out.println(Charset.defaultCharset());
byte[] arr = {1, 2, 3, 4};
[Code] ....
However, Eclipse prints out strange boxes, which I was unable to copy into this message.
It's supposed to print out the values of the bytes. What am I doing wrong?
Change Input String To Array Of Characters
Dec 11, 2014I am trying to change an input String to an array of characters, but it only stores the word before the space into the array. Here is the code:
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println(" Enter text: " );
String text = scanner.next();
char[] characterArray = text.toCharArray(); // convert string to array of characters
String char = "";
for( i = 0; i < characterArray.length; i++) {
char = char + characterArray[i]
} System.out.println(char);
Just typing hello gives me hello, but when I type hello world it does not type in the word "world".I am trying to change an input String to an array of characters, but it only stores the word before the space into the array.Here is the code:

char[] characterArray = text.toCharArray(); // convert string to array of characters
String char = "";
for( i = 0; i < characterArray.length; i++) {
char = char + characterArray[i]

String Manipulation - Extract Substrings Consisting Of First N-4 And Last Three Characters
Feb 18, 2014I do have a quick question about string manipulation. You see I've been given a simple exercise that involves asking the user to input a number between 1,000 and 999,999 and displaying the result. Simple enough, but the caveat is that if the user keys in the comma, say 24,000 instead of 24000 for example, the program is not to display the comma. I don't see how to do this without an 'if' statement. The book says the 'if' is not necessary but does offer this hint: "Read the input as a string. Measure the length of the string. Suppose it contains n characters. Then extract the substrings consisting of the first n-4 characters and the last three characters."
What good is n-4 going to do if the string's lengths varies?
Here's what I have written thus far:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class P13
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Please enter a number between 1,000 and 999,999: ");

Compare 2 Strings - Generate New String With Matching Characters
Jul 3, 2014I'm attempting a small program as I'm teaching myself the ropes. In it, I need to compare one string (the base) to another which is just the base string that's had it's characters shuffled.
Java Code:
String base = "ABCDEFG"
String shuffled = "CDAFBEG" mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
What I need to do is run a loop that shuffles the base string each time, but compares and saves any characters that match in the correct location. For example, if shuffled = "CDAFBEG", then the G would be "locked" in place and the rest of the characters shuffled and looped back to the comparison.
I have all the code I need for shuffling the string, but I'm not sure how I would go about comparing each character and then also locking it in place. I get the basics, I think, of needed to use several variables.

import org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException;
import org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlObject;
public class ParseXMLData {
public static XmlObject parseXML(String stringXML) {
XmlObject xmlObject = null;
[Code] ....
success case
---------------------------
i/p------<aaa><bbb>This converts string to xml</bbb></aaa>
o/p---<aaa><bbb>This converts string to xml</bbb></aaa>
Failer case
-----------------
i/p----<aaa><bbb>This fails if it contains < symbols</bbb></aaa>
expected o/p----<aaa><bbb>This fails if it contains < symbols</bbb></aaa>

View Replies View RelatedFill A Panel With Seats
Jun 13, 2014We get a database and some DAO classes. We had to fill a ShowPanel with different shows being given in a theatre, and then when you choose from this you get several dates. Then when you click a date, the seatings appear in the SeatPanel. I got the first part with the shows and dates. But Im stuck at getting the seatings.We have a controller class which calls the shows+dates (this happens in one method). But i always get a nullpointerexception for the seatings. (this happens in a different method). I think i just don't know how to link the chosen show+date with the seatings.For the moment i have
