How To Calculate Difference Between Two Entered Days Of Week

Mar 19, 2014

I need to create a simple Java program that calculates the difference between two entered days of the week with the following requirements:

-Ask the user to enter in a day of the week by name (e.g. Monday)
- Ask the user to enter in another day of the week by name (e.g. Friday)
- Create a static method other than main that takes in two Strings as input, and returns an integer value equal to the difference between the two days
- Use an array with the days of the week in it to find each entered in day of the week, and use their indices to calculate the difference
- Output the difference for the user to see

Difference In Days Between Two Days?

Feb 19, 2014

How to find out number of days elapsed between two days. I know that if hours elapsed between two days is above 24, its the next day. But this is not always the case for e.g.

02-19-2014 17:30:00 PM and 02-20-1014 13:15:00 PM

In the above case hour difference is <24.

Difference In Days Between Dates

Dec 5, 2013

I know this has been covered before but none of the answers made sense to me. I'm hoping there is an easy way to do this. I have 2 user inputted strings that I have converted to dates and I just want the difference in days.

My code :

import java.util.Date;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.text.ParseException;
public class DateTest {
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) throws ParseException {

[Code] ....

Apparently I can't just subtract the dates like I would in VB.

For Loop Program - Calculate Total Earnings For 30 Days

Oct 5, 2014

So I've attempted a for loop for this type of problem:If you receive $0.01 on the first day of your allowance, and the daily rate doubles each day after, calculate the total earnings for 30 days.

Output should be like:
Day ----- Daily allowance - Total allowance
1 -------- 0.01 -------------- 0.01
2 -------- 0.02 -------------- 0.03
3 -------- 0.04 -------------- 0.07

My code so far:

public class Allowance
{
public static void main (String[] args)
{
int day = 0;
double daily = 0.0;
double total = 0.1;
System.out.println("Day Daily Allowance Total Allowance");
for(day = 0; day <= 30; )

How To Calculate Difference Between Two Dates

Oct 19, 2014

I have been tasked with creating an invoice (school assignment). Part of the calculations is creating an interest depending on the amount of days between the current date entered, and invoice date entered (The program prompts the user to enter both the current and invoice dates by asking for the day, month and year).

We are also supposed to set the contructor to a default date of 1/1/1900.. but I don't know how or where to code that.

How to calculate the difference between the CurrentDate and Invoice. I have displayed the dates to the user as follows.

public void displayDate() {
System.out.println("
Today's Date: " + month + "/" + day + "/" + year);
}
public void displayInvDate() {
System.out.println("
Invoice Date: " + invMonth + "/" + invDay + "/" + invYear);

Unable To Pull Out Lowest Week Number In Program

Apr 29, 2014

This program reads off of a text file that I have attached to my post. It is supposed to:

display the total sales for each week
the average daily sales for each week
the total sales for all of the weeks
the average weekly sales
the week number that had the highest amount of sales
the week number that had the lowest amount of sales

I can get everything but the very last one. In my code you will see that I tried to use a really large number so it would pull out the lowest amount, but it still didn't work: low = 100000000;

Here is what I'm trying to do using arrays.

gather sales amount for the week
display the total of sales

display the highest sale amount
display the lowest sale amount

using occurrences determine how many times the amount occurred for the week

make a sales main
make a sales data

This is what i have so far but I'm confused on how to start the occurrence and where it would be placed in order to get the information from the array

App That Calculates And Displays Total Basic Pay Week - Overtime Pay

Oct 16, 2014

Having just started college, Bob has been busy looking for a part-time job to fund his new college social life and after only two weeks of looking he has managed to get two job offers! Each job comes with different hours, basic rates of pay and over-time rates so he needs to work out which would get him the most money.

Develop an application that would allow Bob to enter his basic pay rate, his number of regular hours work per week and his number of overtime hours per week. The application should then calculate and display Bobs total basic pay for the week, his overtime pay for the week and his total pay including overtime.

Your application should use instantiable classes to separate the calculations from the user input and output.

Save the instantiable class as Pay.java

Note: The overtime rate is 1.5 times the basic rate of pay

This is my instantiable class code which compiles correctly

public class Pay{
//Declare Data members/Variables
private double pay;
private double hours;
private double overtime;
private double totalBasicPay;

[Code] .....

My errors in the second bit of code that i have never seen before

"C:UsersAndreDownloadsPayApp.java:25: error: no suitable method found for println(<null>,String)
System.out.println(null,"Please enter Basic Pay");
^
method PrintStream.println() is not applicable

Rainfall Analysis For The Number Of Days According To User Input

Feb 24, 2015

I am assigned with a project that will as the user for the amount of days they would like data entered, then loop asking them for these numbers. once it reaches the entered amount of days it will display a menu for which the user can enter the number they want on the list and it will display the data. the menu has 6 items. Total, Average, Determine if its a Drought, Flood or normal rainfall, highest of data entered, lowest of data entered, and 6 is to quit the program.

So far i have total and average working properly. Still looking at how to display drought, flood, and normal.

Main problems, i cannot get highest and lowest to display correct data.

Also when entering 6, or an invalid menu choice, neither "goodbye" or "invalid choice, choose again" gets printed. Rather the loop for entering data continues.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class RainAnalysis {
/*
* Project 1 This program will analyze the rainfall for the number of days a user inputs.
*/
 
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
int numOfDays = 0;
double rainfallAmount = 0.0;

[Code] ....

Here is a sample output to show what happens when i put in 6 after the menu is displayed.

also i noticed that it does not say the correct day when displaying the lowest and highest rainfall. this is because i put count, i did not know what else to put in order to get the correct day.

how many days do you want to monitor rainfall?5

Enter the rainfall for day 1.01
Enter the rainfall for day 2.1
Enter the rainfall for day 36
Enter the rainfall for day 43
Enter the rainfall for day 51

Rainfall Data Display Menu:
1 - Display total rainfall.
2 - Display rain average for the period.
3 - Display if drought, flood, or normal conditions.
4 - Display the day and amount of the highest rainfall.
5 - Display the day and amount of the lowest rainfall.
6 - Quit the program.

Enter your choice:
4
Day5 has the highest rainfall with 6.0 inches.

Rainfall Data Display Menu:
1 - Display total rainfall.
2 - Display rain average for the period.
3 - Display if drought, flood, or normal conditions.
4 - Display the day and amount of the highest rainfall.
5 - Display the day and amount of the lowest rainfall.
6 - Quit the program.

Enter your choice:
5
Day5 has the lowest rainfall with 0.1 inches.

Rainfall Data Display Menu:
1 - Display total rainfall.
2 - Display rain average for the period.
3 - Display if drought, flood, or normal conditions.
4 - Display the day and amount of the highest rainfall.

6 - Quit the program.

Enter your choice:

Calendar (Days Enum) - Determine If Day Is Weekday Or Weekend

Oct 17, 2014

The instructions state: Create the following values for the enum (and make sure that they are spelled correctly, case matters):

a. SUN
b. MON
c. TUE
d. WED
e. THU
f. FRI
g. SAT

Create a private constructor for the Day enum that takes a boolean value. This boolean will determine if the day is a weekday (if it is true) or weekend (if it is false). Document it with a JavaDoc. This value will need to be stored as part of the object. Update the enum values so that they correctly call the constructor. Saturday and Sunday are the only days considered part of the weekend.

Implement the following methods:
a. boolean isWeekday()
i. Returns true if the day is a weekday.

b. Boolean isWeekend()
i. Returns true if the day is a weekend. (How could you determine that?)

c. String toString()
i. Returns the full name of the day for the enum value (i.e. Monday or Tuesday). Use either a set of nested ifs or a switch statement.

Hint: You will want to compare the this reference against the possible values in the enum.

Program To Determine Number Of Days In A Year Up To And Including The Current Day

Nov 23, 2014

So basically we have this question to do : Write a method dayNumber that determines the number of days in a year up to and including the current day. The method should have three int parameters: year, month, and day. If the value of any parameter is invalid, the method should print a warning message and return the value zero. The table gives some examples of the action of the method. Accept any non-negative year as being valid. You may want to assume the existence of a method numberOfDays that returns the number of days in a given month of a given year. And you should have a method call isLeapYear, if the user enter a year that is a leap year.

This is what I did so far:

class dayMonthYear {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Enter a year");
int year = In.getInt();
System.out.println("Enter the month for '1' to be January - '12' to be december");

[Code] ....

It works and compiles but my problem is that: let say I enter "12" for December and December has 31 days, so what my program will do since December has 31 days, it thinks each month has 31 days and add them up which will give me 372 when it's suppose to give me 365. How do I make it that it won't do that and that it will work if the year is a leap year too.
