Interface Task - Manipulate Entries In A Telephone Directory
Feb 19, 2014
Write an interface Directory to manipulate entries in a telephone directory for the University. The interface must support the following operations:
1) The ability to insert new entries into the directory. Entries should be stored in alphabetical order of surname.
2) Delete entries from the directory either by name or number
3) Provide a lookup method that will find the extension no of a member of staff given his/her name. You should try to make this method run as efficiently as possible.
4) Change a person's telephone number
5) Print the telephone directory in a neatly tabulated fashion.
Write a class ArrayDirectory that implements this interface using an array to store the telephone directory information. The class must store the surname and initial for each member of staff and their telephone extension (a four digit number which may start with a zero). You may find it useful to define a class Entry to store information about individual entries. The entries should be read into the array from a text file consisting of multiple lines in the following format:
Surname<tab>Initials<tab>Telephone extension
Write a main program that reads in data from a file and then tests all the methods of your class interface. Note it is not necessary to write data back to disk (even if it has changed) in this project.
For data insertion and lookup, you should measure the performance for the average case (e.g. looking up a record in the middle of the data). To do this you can use the static method System.currentTimeMillis() which returns the time in milliseconds. To get an accurate measure of the time to perform an operation it is a good idea to perform each operation 1000 (or even 10000) times and measure the time taken. This will remove any problems due to the system clock having a coarse granularity (not ticking very often). Make sure you only time the method and not any input/output associated with it. Your documentation should include a discussion of these results.
Part 2
You decide that your solution to part 1 may be too slow to be useful when used with a real large telephone directory and make the following changes to attempt to improve the performance of your program:
1). Provide a second implementation (ListDirectory) of the Directory interface using the Java Collections List interface and LinkedList classes.
2). The changes in 1) should make adding, deleting and modifying records more efficientbut will probably reduce the time to lookup numbers. To overcome this you use a technique called hashing. Instead of storing all the records on one list you use a series of lists. The data for all people whose surname begins with "A" is stored on the first list, records for all people whose surname begins with "B" on a second list and so on. Write a third implementation (HashDirectory) of the Directory interface using this technique.
Again, you should measure the performance for the best, worst and average cases of implementations 1) and 2) above. Compare the efficiency of each of the 3 implementations in your documentation.
Part 3
Choose one of your 3 implementations from Parts 1 and 2 and embed it in a graphical user interface that allows users to perform all the methods in the Directory interface using a mouse and keyboard appropriately.

The part that i am stuck on is trying to do the entry method, delete entries method, loop up method, change persons telephone number and be able to print it.

Consider the url-pattern:
<url-pattern> /Beer/* </url-pattern>
The web app structure is: -
webapps
|
-->AdviceApp
|
-->WEB-INF
--> {{Beer}} This can be real or virtual.
My book says that /Beer/* can be a real or a virtual directory. What is the difference between the two and how do I create a virtual directory in tomcat ?

Develop an algorithm for a Java program that takes as input a single letter and displays the corresponding digit on the telephone. The letters and digits on a telephone are grouped this way:
2 = ABC 3 = DEF 4 = GHI 5 = JK 6 = MNO 7 = PQRS 8 = TUV 9 = WXYZ
The screen dialog might look like this: Enter a single letter, and I will tell you what the corresponding digit is on the telephone. R The digit 7 corresponds to the letter R on the telephone.
The program should display a message indicating that there is no matching digit for any non-alphabetic character entered by the user. Also, the application should recognize only uppercase letters. If a user enters a lowercase letter, the program should display an error message. Prompt the user with an informative message for the input value as shown above.
The application should include the input letter as part of the output.
Write the algorithm to solve this problem including steps for prompting the user, getting input from the keyboard, and displaying the results.
Write the Java program that you designed, using your algorithm as a guide. Use your algorithm as comments in the body of the main method.
Use proper indentation, and meaningful identifiers throughout the code.

im new to java and i wanna make a program using java that can add order entries for a restaurant but how to... i was hoping something that would ask to person to input one or two items and before it calculates the total amount to be paid it will ask the guy who inputs the amount whether or not there are additional orders or not before it prints out the total amount... I am pretty sure it will need an if-else statement..
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class OrderCalc {
JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
JFrame aFrame = new JFrame("OrderCalc");
aFrame.setSize(500,250);
aFrame.setVisible(true);

Write a program to calculate the telephone charges for four customers. The data for each customer consists of NAME, PREVIOUS METER READING, PRESENT METER READING. The difference between the two readings gives the number of units used by the customer for the period under consideration.
The amount due for each customer is calculated by: UNITS USED * RATE PER UNIT + RENTAL CHARGE The rate per unit and rental charge is assumed to be the same for all customers and must be input once only.
Your program must:
a. Input the rate and rental charge
b. Read the data for each customer and calculate the amount due
c. Print the information under suitable headings
d. Calculate and print the total amount due to the telephone company
************************************

I have a web form with a field Department. I want to add Sub Departments(unknown number) of one Department and then further Sub Sub Departments(unknown number) of one Sub Department. How I will make a form and how I will add this data in attached database. I have one solution:
One Department field with a button to add any sub department if any. By clicking on button, a new row will be generated with another text field and new button. In this way, it will go on. Tree like structure.
But I have another solution, JSF Tree to add or delete entries on the run time. But the problem is that I am unable to find any example of JSF tree like structure populated from database and in which we can add or delete entries on run time and on the same time these entries may also be stored in database.

I have a database of peoples names linked up to a from to enter a new employee.The form has a previous and next button that should cycle through the employees alphabetically.What im doing the cycle by now is ID which isnt in alphabetical order and just goes by the order they where entered in.
Is there any way to cycle through alphabetically instead? Is running a query each time the next/previous button is pressed the correct way or should it just grab all the names in the array. Theres probably 150 names.

I have an editable JTable that has a lot of JComboBox's as cell entries. I would like to be able to "arrow over" to said cell, and with a pressing of either a numerical button or by typing the first letter of the String selection (possibly followed by a second), be able to select the appropriate selection from the cell's JComboBox. I have tried to add a key listener to the JComboBox itself, which works given that I click on said cell and show its menu.
How would I go about ensuring that, when focus is on the cell itself, and I start typing, the appropriate selection is chosen?? (I think this might get into key binding, but I don't know if I have to try it from the scope of JTable, or from that JTable's TableModel (which I have made my custom version of).
Here is what I have so far (everything but SandwichNumber, SandwichName, and Oregano uses JComboBox): [URL] ...., how would I do such key binding?

Since musicians are supposed to use ALL free services available to them in order to promote themselves, every time we book a show I have to: update facebook, update reverbnation, update bandcamp, etc.
So I was trying to find a way to automate this task, and I found a way to output my facebook page's events to an ical file (which I can port into Google Calendars if I wish). ReverbNation and Bandcamp unfortunately don't offer any integration with anything at all period... So this is what I wanted to write some code to do (see flowchart thing).

I'm trying to put together a method that formats telelphone numbers, but there's a part of my code that not working. If I enter (305)912-5458 into the variable phoneNumb I get an index is out of range error. I added a lot of system out messages so that I can try to get an idea of why the code was crashing.
public static void main(String[] args) {
int intBegin = 0;
int intEnd = 1;
int length;
String charact;
StringBuilder numbuilder = new StringBuilder();

Assignment: Develop a GUI-based program to read the entries of a matrix from a text file. The first number is the number of rows; the second number is the number of columns. The remaining numbers are integers between 1 and 9 in row by row order. Scan the matrix, highlight (display the entries in different color) all cells that form a group of five cells with the same value horizontally, vertically or diagonally.
Example of text(.txt) file:
7 7
3623161
3666669
3936293
3594955
3289867
2493998
1399998
Example of output:
3623161
3666669
3936293
3594955
3289867
2493998
1399998
* ^^this would be what it would look like when displayed in the GUI. But it would be colored. Anything that has 5 in a row ...My Class File:
// GUI-related imports
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
// File-related imports
[code]....
EX.
0=black(when there is no combo. of 5)1=blue(horizantal combo of 5)2=red(vertical combo of 5)3=green(right diagnol combo of 5)4=purple(left diagol combo of 5)

I have a problem with this application , I have a button that allows users to delete entry's from the array list, but i've noticed when i go back and click display entry's the correct entry has not been deleted.....for example if i enter a,1,2 then b,1,2, then c,1,2 in fields, then delete c,1,2 when i actually go to display the data entered a,1,2 will be gone not the one i entered.
So it seems to be deleting the entry at index 0 of the array list no matter what and not the chosen item..Delete Button Code
private void deleteBtnActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt)
{
if (numTf.getText().equals("") || nameTf.getText().equals("") || yearTf.getText().equals(""))
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "All fields must be full");
}
else if (count == 0)

I was recently looking at the Tesseract module to convert handwritten text into typed text, however I was wondering is there anything out there, or any code which would allow me to do it the other way? I would like to load up a piece of typed up text (pdf, word, even notepad), and be able to turn it into an object for manipulation.
In the long run, I'd like to be able to open up a pdf document, click on some text, edit it, then use tesseract to turn it back into typed text.

Applications: Netbeans (8.0.1), Apache Tomcat
My Aim: Creation of a telephone book
How should it work:
I have a Database with Data of people (name, adress, phone number).
If a user enters a phone number (CLIENT) -> the correct person with the name and adress should appear.
I build up the infrastructure and now I'm at the point that I have to create a Webmethod for it. I just worked on projects like addition of two integers, hello "name", ... I think this example now is harder, BUT i can learn a lot!
