Incrementing Alphanumeric String By One

Sep 5, 2009

I have an assignment where I need to increment an alphanumeric string by one. For example AAA123 + 1 = AAA124. I'm okay with incrementing alpha or incrementing numbers, but incrementing them all together is where I am stuck. Should I just convert the entire string to ascii and increment there?

Incrementing Count By 1 Each Time

May 25, 2014

I am currently take a class, and trying to increment the count of employees I enter into an ArrayList by 1 for every entry. However, instead of incrementing by 1 each time, the current number of employeeIDs adds itself to itself, then adds 1, giving a non-sequential number (i.e. an employeeID of 75 will add itself to 75 + 1 to get a new employeeID of 151).

The following code is what I have done in terms of incrementing. (More coding has been done, but it is not used to increment, so I have omitted it.

public class Employee
{
// instance variables
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
private int employeeID;
static int newEmployeeID = 0;

[Code] ....

Incrementing Time By A Specified Interval Using Joda Library

Aug 9, 2014

public Map<Integer , String> Timeinterval(int value) {
int i = 1440/value ;
Map<Integer, String> timeInt = new HashMap<Integer, String>() ;
DateTimeFormatter formatter = null ;
for(int a=0 ; a< i ; a++) {

[Code] .....

The argument value gets it value from jsp at rumtime

The moment the control reaches at :- formatter = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("HH:mm");

it could not go beyond this . I executed this part

DateTimeFormat.forPattern("HH:mm"); by pressing cntrl+shift+I

and got this message :- could not resolve type: org.joda.time.format.DateTimeFormat

Basically what I want to do is increment time for eg: if time is 09:00 and I want to increment it by 30 then it should become 09:30 and this goes on till the time loop condition is satisfied, when i researched on net, I found out that Joda library is easirer to work with for such tasks.

Unable To Implement Alphanumeric Security Code

Apr 10, 2014

I have been trying to implement a alphanumeric security code in JAVA. Here are my specifications:

1) Numbers and letters
2) There is user input
3) In the format of NNN-LL-NNNN where N=Numbers and L=UPPERCASE letters
4) If it is incorrect print out INVALID CODE
5) If it is correct print out VALID CODE

Here is what I have produced so far...

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
//Class Declaration
class WorkingWithStrings
{
//Main Method
public static void main(String[] args)
{
//Takes input from user

[Code]...

I have taking the approach of invoking a separate method that will check the validity of the security code. However I am having an issue with creating a statement that checks if the middle two characters of the security code are capital letters. This could possibly tie in with my understanding of strings.

Method Creation - Take A String With Duplicate Letters And Return Same String Without Duplicates

Nov 7, 2014

How can I write a method that takes a string with duplicates letters and returns the same string which does not contain duplicates. For example, if you pass it radar, it will return rad. Also i would like to know how can I Write a method that takes as parameters the secret word and the good guesses and returns a string that is the secretword but has dashes in the places where the player has not yet guessed that letter. For example, if the secret word is radar and the player has already guessed the good guesses letters r and d, the method will return r-d-r.

String Split Method To Tokenize String Of Characters Inputted?

Sep 27, 2014

I 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.*;
public class CalculatorCopy {
public static void main(String[] args) {

Take Replacement String Entered By User And Print Out New String

May 22, 2014

I'm having trouble with the last few lines of the code. It's supposed to take a replacement string entered by the user and print out the new string. For some reason it's now allowing me to enter a replacement string

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Project02 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter a long string: ");
String lString = keyboard.nextLine();

[Code] ....

Output:

Enter a long string: the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog
Enter a substring: jumped
Length of your string: 44
Length of your substring: 6
Starting position of your substring in string: 20
String before your substring: the quick brown fox
String after your substring: over the lazy dog
Enter a position between 0 and 43: 18
The character at position 18 is x

Enter a replacement string: Your new string is: the quick brown fox over the lazy dog <------ isn't taking user input

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Compare Inputted String With Key String

Aug 28, 2014

I have a method for a button so when a user inputs something it then will get the string value and check it against the string value within the properties file to see if it exists.

The properties file is called GitCommands.properties that contains -- > key = value <-- in it

I realised I have not used it correctly hence why I keep getting errors - I am lost on how to use it, I think perhaps that may be the issue here? I need to reference the file but I am doing it wrong? When I do use that piece of code I get null pointer exception too...

textFieldSearch.getText().equals(GitCommands.keys());

This is my button:

JButton btnSearch = new JButton("Search");
btnSearch.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
FindSelectedKey();

[code] .....

I understand I am missing my piece of code where it states "//determine whether the string is equal to the property file key string" I understand the logic fine but not actually coding it.

Split String Based On String Length?

Jan 23, 2010

I am trying to split a string based on length(example length 5) of the string. But I am having a issues with this substring(start, end) method. I get all substring which are of length 5. But if the last substring is less than 5 then I am not getting that last substring. But I need the last substring even if it is less than 5.

String s = "fjdjfdfjgffgjhfjghfjkhjhjh";
String spLine;
for(int i=0; i<s.length(); i=i+5){
spLine = s.substring(i, (5+i));
}

Accepting String And String Array In Just ONE Method?

Mar 18, 2014

Code a Java method that accepts a String array and a String. The method should return true if the string can be found as an element of the array and false otherwise. Test your method by calling it from the main method which supplies its two parameters (no user input required). Use an array initialiser list to initialise the array you pass. Test thoroughly.

public class test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Printhelloworld();
String[] verbs = {"go", "do", "some", "homework"};
printArrays(verbs);

How To Compare String To Each Element Of String Array

Mar 28, 2014

How do I compare a String to each element of a string array?

For example:

int headscount = 0;
if (coins[i].equals("heads")){
headscount++;
System.out.println("b" + headscount);
}

This doesn't give me the right value because the IDE says that equals() is an incompatible type. I also tried changing the "heads" to an variable, but the results remains the same.

I would prefer using an Array!

String Split Method To String Array

Sep 21, 2014

So I'm creating a class which when given three inputs uses them as sides of a triangle and tells ther user what type of triangle it is, or if the input is invalid, tells them why it is invalid. I'm readin the input as a string and then trying to split it into a string array, from there checking to see if it has 3 elements.. in which the data is good at that point, and then converting them to ints and checking to see if they're negative ansd finally checking to see if they can work as sides of a triangle ie a+b >c, a+c >b , b+c >a.

I'm trying to split it into an array of strings but am getting an error, and can't seem to figure out why as this should be working from what I've read of the string.split method online.

import java.util.*;
public class TriangleTest{
private int sideA;
private int sideB;
private int sideC;
public static void main(String[] args){
TriangleTest triangle = new TriangleTest("3 4 5");

[Code] ....

The output reads [Ljava.lang.String;@15db9742

How To Convert Numeric String To Formatted String

Sep 11, 2014

I have a string value returned from a background tool that will range from 0 to possibly terabytes as a full number.  I want to format that number to use commas and to reduce the character count using an appropriate size modifier (KiB, MiB, GiB, etc).  I've tried converting the string number to a Double value using Double.parseDouble() and then performing the math based on the size of the value with this code:
 
Double dblConversionSize;
String stCinvertedSize;
dblConversionSize = Double.parseDouble(theValue);
if (dblConversionSize > (1024 * 1024 * 1024))
     stConvertedSize = String.format("%,.000d", dblConversionSize / 1024 / 1024 / 1024) + " TiB";
...
 
I've also tried using
 
     String.valueOf(dblConversionSize / 1024 / 1024 / 1024) + " TiB";
 
However, the formatting is failing and I'm either getting a format exception or the result is displayed as a number with no decimal component.

Cannot Convert From String To Boolean And Int To String

Apr 6, 2014

I have errors in the "if" and both "else if" ... The compiler says "cannot convert from String to boolean and int to String ...

instructions:

1. Add two private instance variables, String courseName and char grade to this class.

2. Add accessor and mutator methods for these instance variables.

3. Add a method register which receives an integer data type and returns String data type according to the argument passed to it ("Math" for 1, "English" for 2, "No course" for any other input)

What I have so far:

package assignment9;
 public class BannerUser
{
private int userId;
public int getUserId()
{
return this.userId;
}
public void setUserId(int userId)

I have the the string value similar to the one   which i have to split based on the delimited ","
String SampleString=" 'ab,c', 'xyz', lm,n,o  "
 
I know I can easily call split function which will eventually split the above string. But in my case the delimiter ","  , is also a part of the string. If I call the function SampleString.split(',') I will get the output as listed below
 
ab
c
xyz
lm
n
o
but the expected  output is
abc

Accept String And Number Of Repetitions As Parameters And Print String Given Number Of Times

Oct 3, 2014

I'm having a hard time with this problem, this is what I have, but I can not use two integers, I have to use one integer and a string...

This is the question:

Write a method called printStrings that accepts a String and a number of repetitions as parameters and prints that String the given number of times. For example, the call:

printStrings("abc", 5);

will print the following output: abcabcabcabcabc

This is what I attempted:

public class printStringsproject {
public static void printStrings(int abc, int number) {
for (int i = 1; i <= number; i++) {
System.out.print("abc");
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
printStrings(1, 5);
}
}

Using Int To Get A Value From A String?

Oct 10, 2014

Anyways, variable names I have gotten from the code I've gotten from Minecraft using MinecraftCoderPack & Eclipse.

So... I have a string that I am wanting to get a number from.

Example:

public static final String[] exampleLetters = new String[] {"a", "b", "c", "d", "e", "f", "g"};

And, using a public Int (with no variables in the title), I am looking to take numbers for each string letter, to be able to output the value to other code.

Example:
public int letterConversion()
a = 0, b = 1, and so on to g = 6

How would I be able to get the numerical values of each letters using a public Int without any variables in the title?

Actual Code I have right now. Again, please ignore variable names, it's what I got use to while learning.

/** The list of the types of step blocks. */
public static final String[] slabType = new String[] {"stone", "sand", "cobble", "brick", "smoothStoneBrick", "netherBrick", "quartz"};
}
/**This checks slabType for the material and registers a number to each type for other codes to use.*/
public int textureType()

[Code] ....

For what I have now, in the Int...

for ( int var2 = 0 ; var2 < slabType.length ; var2++ )

Is controlling the output. No mater what the 0 is the output...

Re-prompting For A String?

Mar 28, 2014

how to have a user input information again if their initial one was incorrect? For example, in this it will have the user go back to select an invoice number within range, but how do you do so if they enter words? I've tried next() and nextLine() but it hasn't worked.

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("What is the invoice number for your purchase?");
invoice = input.nextInt();
  System.out.println("What is the sale amount of your purchase?");
amount = input.nextDouble(); 
while (invoice < 1000 || invoice > 8000) {
System.out.println("You have entered an invalid invoice number.");
System.out.println("Please select a number between 1000 and 8000.");
invoice = input.nextInt();//having trouble knowing how to input this if it were a string.
}
