How To Reduce Number Of Parallel Arrays In Code

Mar 8, 2015

I'm building a text based "game" where you are communicating with this android creature called Gargoid , at a VERY primitive level . how it works is, simply the user type in a sentence which is decoded for meaning by comparing it with a built in list of words in order to figure out what the user is saying, and then reply with a a relevant response also from a list of built in words. the whole thing would look something like this,

user: what is your name
Gargoid : my name is Gargoid, nice to meet you
user: how is the weather
Gargoid: the weather is wonderful

so far I have 11 arrays which are the following

String[] for user typed in words used for comparison to find meaning ..An Array of String[] , 7 so far, to hold what I call the Gargoid dictionary for example String[] greeting={hi,hello,aloha}, words that indicates greeting int[] called frequency to determine which of the 7 arrays have the greatest "relevancy" to what is being said. and finally another String[] for responses here's the actual code, I want you guys to tell me if there's a way to reduce all this never ending number of arrays? and also is this code a good application of object oriented programming?

MainClass
public class GargoidMain {
public static void main(String[] args) {
TheKeyBoard keyboard=new TheKeyBoard();
TheTranslator translator=new TheTranslator();
TheBrain brain=new TheBrain();
translator.translate(keyboard.userSaysWhat());
brain.respond(translator.userSays());

Parallel Arrays - User Input Integer 1-12 / Output Name Of Month And Number Of Days In That Month

May 11, 2015

I've been working on a question using parallel arrays where the user inputs an integer 1-12 and the output will be the name of the month and the number of days in that month. This is what I have so far

import java.util.*;
public class DaysMonth
{
public static void main (String args[]) {
Scanner keyIn = new Scanner(System.in);
int[] days = new int[]{31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31};

[Code] ....

After I enter the user int it just ends.

Working With Parallel Arrays

Dec 5, 2014

The assignment was to create 3 parallel arrays to make a student database.The first array will contain 4 digit student id's, the second a string array with student names, and the third array is student gpa's. The user is to receive a dialog box asking to enter the student id, and if the id is correct the user is to see the student name and grade. If the user input does not match any value in the student id array, the user is to receive a message stating invalid id. Here is the code I have so far.

For some reason no matter what the user enters, the information for the last array entry is displayed.

public class parallelStudent
{
public static int sequentialSearch(int[] array, int value)
{
int index; //loop control variable
int element; //element the value is found at
boolean found; //flag indicating search results

Sort A Set Of Parallel Arrays

Mar 30, 2014

I am trying to sort a set of parallel arrays. I really believe that the code is correct, but it is not working out as expected.This is the specific code for the sort:

Java Code: for (int y = 1; y < (dataArray.length + 1); y++)
{
for (int x = 0; x < dataArray.length - 1 ; x++)
{
if ((dataArray[x][1]) <= (dataArray[x + 1][1]));
{
tempOpen = dataArray[x][1];
dataArray[x][1] = dataArray[x + 1][1];
dataArray[x + 1][1] = tempOpen;

Reflection To Reduce Boilerplate Code

Jul 17, 2014

I have the following classes:

abstract class BaseClass {
}
(doesn't have to be abstract if not necessary, but currently there is no need for it not to be abstract)

class InheritedClassA extends BaseClass {
DataA a;
DataB b;
DataC c;

[Code] ....

Now, I want to get the elements like follows:

BaseClass b = new InheritedClassA();
DataA dataA = b.getDataA(); //returns the DataA field if it's a data member of the inherited class, otherwise null

I know I could do something like this:

abstract class BaseClass {
public DataA getDataA() {
return null;
}
public DataB getDataB() {
return null;

[Code] ...

and override getters as necessary in the inherited classes:

class InheritedClassA extends BaseClass {
DataA a;
DataB b;
DataC c;

public DataA getDataA() {
return a;

[Code] ...

But this introduces an awful lot of boilerplate code, especially in the BaseClass class. In my current plans, there could easily be over a hundred different Data classes, and I would have to write a method that simply returns null for each.

I read about the @Inject annotation and reflection. Is it possible to reduce or eliminate the boilerplate code with these tricks, possibly by putting new methods into the classes?

Using Parallel Arrays To Store Names And Job Titles Then Display Combo Depending On Input

Dec 24, 2014

I am trying to use parallel arrays to store names and job titles, then display the name/job title combo depending on which is entered. I have always struggled with arrays, so I'm sure that's where my issue is, but I am not sure how to resolve this one. I tried to use the toString() method with the jobs to see if that would allow the job title to match to one of the titles listed, and I tried to not use the toString() method with the names to see if that would allow the name entered to match to one of the names listed in the array. Both options only display the "invalid" message no matter what I enter. What would be the best choice to use the arrays to properly display the information ....

import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
 public class JEmployeeTitle2 extends JApplet implements ActionListener
{
Container con = getContentPane();

Parallel Program - Calculate SUM And AVERAGE Of Odd Number Digits Between 25 And 75

Jun 11, 2014

You are to write a parallel program that will receive a large array of unsorted integers containing digits from 0 to 99. The program will have to calculate the SUM and AVERAGE of ODD number digits between 25 and 75 (inclusive). The user may specify the size or the array and the total processor that the machine has. The size of the array must be divisible by number of processor. Based on the given size, the computer will generate random integer numbers automatically to populate the array.

The program should display the status of the calculation for each processor. The result should be displayed after all calculations are completed.Error messages should be displayed appropriately

a) Write a sequential (non-parallel) program that will accomplish above task.
b) Write a concurrent (parallel) program that will produce the result of the above task.

when I run it the array gets sorted but how do i keep the data in other words

what it is supposed to do is grab numbers from a file, and give me the lowest 4 numbers back. I know the numbers using the array but how do i pull out the lowest 4 and keep the data true no matter what numbers or how many of them are in the file.

import java.util.Random;
public class challenged2e

static Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);
public static int i=0;
public static void main (String args[])

Sorting Arrays And Counting Number Of Swaps

Nov 2, 2013

I need to modify modules used in the book that run a bubble sort, selection sort, and insertion sort on an integer array such that each module keeps a count of the number of swaps it makes.

How do I code for this?

Then we have to design an application that uses 3 identical arrays of at least 20 integers. That calls each module on a different array, and display the number swaps made by each algorithm.

Arrays And Number Generator - Determine And Print Largest And Smallest Values

Dec 4, 2014

/*
Purpose: To write the methods and the rest program. The program should fill a 4 X 4 2 dimensional array with random numbers between 100 and 200. The program should then determine and print the largest and smallest values within the array using two Methods Largest and Smallest. The program should then determine and print the number of values within the array that are even using a function called Even. The program should also enter a loop that will only terminate when the user inputs a -1 as a choice. The loop should continue to ask the user to guess a number that was randomly generated. The program should call the Findit function to determine if the number was in the array. The program should print out the values in the array when the user selects a -1 and then terminate.
*/

public static void main(String[] args) {
int guess;
int[] array = new int[4];

We are shipping in our company the JRE bundled with the client application in order to ensure the compatibility. But when upgrading from jre6 to jre8 the size increased by 50 MB!
 
Is there a reliable and secure way to reduce the footprint of the JRE? Are there "light distributions" or a list of libs/files that can be safely removed?

Read From User Input (integer) And Reduce It By Multiplying Its Non-zero Digits

Nov 15, 2014

Write a program that reads from the user an integer and reduce it by multiplying its non-zero digits. The result of the multiplication is a number which is to be reduced as the initial one. This process continues until an integer of one single digit is obtained. For example:

64734502 (6 * 4 * 7 * 3 * 4 * 5 * 2) 20160 (2 * 1 * 6) 12 (1 * 2) 2

Your program should display the number obtained in every iteration.

Sample run1
Enter an integer: 64734502
After iteration 1: 20160
After iteration 2: 12
After iteration 3: 2

Sample run2
Enter an integer: 97737999
After iteration 1: 6751269
After iteration 2: 22680
After iteration 3: 192
After iteration 4: 18
After iteration 5: 8
