How To Implement Collections Binary Search Method On ArrayList Of Custom Objects
May 11, 2012
I'm doubted regarding the implementation of Collections.binarySearch() method on an ArrayList of objects of a custom class Movie.
Here is the movie class :
public class Movie implements Comparable<Movie> {
String movieName;
String rating;
String director;
String theme;
[Code] .....
The sort/binarySearch in searchByMovieName function is done with natural sorting (and Comparable Interface in Movie class). I mean no comparators involved here. And the comparator that I used for sorting/binarySearching on Movies Director attribute in searchByMovieDirector function is :
public class MovieDirectorComparator implements Comparator<Movie> {
public int compare(Movie movie1, Movie movie2) {
return movie1.getDirector().compareToIgnoreCase(movie2.getDirector());
}
}
But I was not able to implement binarySearch ?? How to implement the binarySearch here. I have google to see only binarySearch working on Arrays or probably ArrayList of String only, but not on ArrayList of custom objects.

I am trying to implement a simple binary search tree . How can I make a node in the tree which should store two pieces of information: a String variable called name, and a int variable called mark. ..
public class BinarySearchTree<E> implements Comparable<E> {
public BinaryTree<E> root;
int size;
int mark;
String name;
// Constructor
public BinarySearchTree()

I have been trying to implement custom request method in HTTP header while posting my data to the server URL. My application specific URL accepts -X parameter and -d for the data and it is mandatory for that url. Basically I am trying to dump JSON data into my influx DB using CURL command which is working fine from the shell. But the issue is, if I am implementing the same in java with proper approach, it is not supported or working. My CURL command is :
curl -X POST -d '<my_json_data>' '<my_url>'
How can I implement the same in java using HttpUrlConnection or other available approach?

We are required to write a binary‐search method to find an int within an array of ints. Without using any functions besides the basics (for loops, if statements, etc.)
I have this so far:
public int binarySearch(int[] ints, int n) {
for(int i = 0; i < ints.length; i++) {
if(ints[i] == n) {
return ints[i];
}
}
}
Does this look somewhat correct?

if some of you worked with Unity Game engine (C#) the idea is that game has main loop and once per cycle it call for example Update() method in all objects which implement certain interface.
I would like to repeat such pattern in Java for another another program, not even game related, but I would still need a main loop and event driven behaviour with async call backsSo question is how to implement the fallowing scenario:
Imagine i have interface which implement some methods and one of them is Execute()
I have the main controller class which implement main loop, also multiple other classes which implement the same interface with method Execute(). How can i call this Execute() method on all objects which implement that interface each loop cycle?
Should i keep and track reference of each object which was implemented with this interface and go through inner "for" loop trough each reference and call manually Execute() method in each of them?what if each object implementing interface have to run Execute() method simultaneously? in parallel independent from each other?
Referring back to Unity engine and their Update() method - there is exactly the same situation:you can have multiple objects with script attached, thats script implement interface which has multiple methods and one of them is Update() and once per cycle all objects with that Update() method will be executed in parallel independently

How should I call my findSmallest method in the main class.. Here is the code:
public class Tester {
public static void main(String[] args){
try {
BinaryTree<Integer> myTree2 = new BinaryTree<Integer>();
myTree2.insert(5);
myTree2.insert(2);
myTree2.insert(7);
[Code] ....
So the question is what kind of parameter I should pass in myTree2.findSmallest()??? Here is my findSmallest method..
public E findSmallest(Node<E> parent){
if(parent.left.left == null){
E returnValue = parent.left.data;
parent.left = parent.left.right;
return returnValue;
} else {
return findSmallest(parent.left);
}
}

This is the code fragment I have for searching my ArrayList. Now, each contact is stored in the ArrayList with five elements (first name, last name, etc.) and they're Strings. The error I get when I try to compile my program lies within this code fragment. It says it cannot find the symbol for the search method. I'm not quite sure what to do with this error.
int foundIndex = SAAddressBook.search(aBook);
System.out.println();
if (foundIndex > -1)
aBook.get(foundIndex).displayContact();
else {
System.out.println("No Entry Found");
}

I'm trying to build a method that can search a binary search tree for a specific target and then return the number of probes it took to get there. It seems to me that the best way to do this would be a recursive search method and a counter that tracks the number of calls. But I'm struggling with how to implement this. Here's the code I have so far. what works/doesn't work with the method.
// Method to search the tree for a specific name and
// return the number of probes
public T search(BTNode<T> btNode) {

I am trying to make a program that compares the 3 different search algorithms(sequential/binary/hashing). I have already made the sequential search algorithm, binary and hashing part of the code.My program OPENS a data file, and then OPENS a key data file. and then searches through them using both. How to go about the binary and hashing search algorithm (in the driver program).
*I have included a zip file with:
-base program
-driver program
-data file
-key data file

The point is to use a binary search to determine how many steps it would take to get to int X, int Y in a grid that is N by N. Picture a parking lot that is square and your car is at (x,y). You can honk your horn from your key to determine the direction of the car. I need to return the amount of steps to get to the car. You can't step diagonally. I am currently getting an error that causes an infinite loop and I can't fix it.
public class ParkingLot {
public int search(int N, int X, int Y) {
int minX = 0, maxY = N, minY = 0, maxX = N;
int num = 0;
int curX, curY;
int newCurX, newCurY;
curX = (minX + maxX)/2;
curY = (minY + maxY)/2;
while (curX != X || curY != Y)

Righto, so I've crafted a binary search and a sequential search. The sequential search works perfectly fine.
However; my binary search doesn't. If I enter in incorrect data, it tells me the data I entered was incorrect. But if I enter in correct data, my sequential search tells me my datas correct, but binary search tells me I'm still incorrect. Here's my binary search + the test program.
public class ValidatorWilson
{
int[] accountNumbers = {5658845, 4520125, 7895122, 8777541, 8451277, 1302850,
8080152, 4562555, 5552012, 5050552, 7825877, 1250255,

If an array has been sorted using a comparator then why is it necessary to pass on that comparator to the binaryserach method. What I want to know is that how come the presence of a comparator reference affect the way the algorithm works?

Doing an early exercise out of the Java Examples in a Nutshell book and they are asking for 'an efficient search algorithm to find the desired position' of two floats in a sorted array that bound an int. My try is below:
public static int search(int searchnum, float[] nums){
int low = 0;
int high = nums.length - 1;
int mid = (low + high) / 2;
while(low < high){
if(nums[mid] < searchnum){
[Code] ....
This is working for the example but I would like to know if it is considered 'efficient' or even good?

I'm just getting two errors concerning line 38 where it has Arrays.sort(int roomList); and the errors state that ".class is expected" and so is a semicolon. What did I do wrong? Also, how might I tweak the code to display "Occupied" or "Unoccupied" depending on the room that was entered?
Also we're not allowed to make use of API method for binary search so that's out of the question.
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class HotelRoom
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner stdIn = new Scanner(System.in);
int[] roomList = new int[25]; // occupied rooms

The problem is it is returning -2, and also returning false when it should be true. There is no error it just is not working correctly.

I am writing binary search method. I don't want to use recursive way, I want to write this method iteratively
Java Code:
public boolean binarySearch(int[] T, int min, int max, int target)
{
int mid=(min+max)/2;
boolean found = false;
int index=0;
while (!found && T.length <= 0 )
{
if (target == mid)
{
found = true;

Where should I keep a collection of instances of my custom class? In the class itself in a static variable?
class Item {
int quantity;
static ArrayList<Item> list = new ArrayList<Item>();
Item(int q) {
quantity = q;
list.add(this);
}
// Some methods and whatnot.
}
Is it fine like this or should I implement the collection elsewhere? What say you?
