Java Program That Keeps Track Of People Names
Jan 13, 2015
I need to make a program that keeps track of peoples names, allows you to add a note to each name and preferably would reorganize whatever you put in by date or by spelling. (I suppose the phonebook application in cell phones is a good match, a supermarket's list of foods and prices would work as well).

I am trying to write a java program that asks the user for a list of names (one per line) until the user enters a blank line. At that point the program should print out the list of names entered, where each name is listed only once (i.e., uniquely) no matter how many times the user entered the name in the program. I am supposed to use an ArrayList for this problem.
My idea for a solution is to create an ArrayList<String>, read each name, i.e., line, entered and then to see if that name is already in the ArrayList. I created a for loop to check each element in the ArrayList but when I try to assign an element to a string variable I get the error "Type mismatch: cannot convert from Object to String". Not sure why that is happening because the ArrayList is defined as a String list.
Here is the code so far.
/*
* File: UniqueNames.java
*/
import acm.program.*;
import java.util.*;
[Code].....

Recently I have missed a few weeks of my class due to family emergencies. Because of this I have missed very important lectures. My professor has assigned me the following assignment:
Prices Write a Java program that specifies three one-dimensional arrays names price, amount, and total. Each array should be capable of holding 10 elements. Using a loop, input values for the price and amount arrays. The entries in the total array should be the product of the corresponding values in the price and amount arrays. After all the data have been entered, display the following output:
Total Price Amount
==== ==== ======
Under each column heading display the appropriate value.
I know how to display everything using printf, how to create the actual arrays and define the array size, but I am confused on how and what loop to use and how to construct it. This is what I have managed to write up so far:
import java.util.Scanner; // Imports the Scanner class
import java.text.DecimalFormat; // Imports the DecimalFormat class
public class Prices
{
public static void main(String [] args)
{
double[] price = new double[10];
double[] amount = new double[10];
double[] total = new double[10];
// Create a new Scanner object
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
} //End of main method
} // End of public class

I am working on a program that asks me to track the position of an imaginary ball as it bounces around an imaginary box. The user gives me input for the starting position of the ball (x,y), the bottom-left boundaries of the box (xl, yl), the top right boundaries (xr, yr) and the angle. The program then needs to find where the ball will hit the box, and then print that location and find the new angle for the next point. My program currently works in most cases if the angle is less than pi.
Here is my code
public class BouncyBall {
public static void main(String args[]){
if (args.length != 8) {
System.out.println("Error: usage is X, Y, Angle, Xl, Yl, Xr, Yr,N");
System.exit(1);
}
double x,y,xl,yl,xr,yr,angle;
int n;
x=Double.parseDouble(args[0]);
y=Double.parseDouble(args[1]);

I work for my local probate court, and one service we offer is email reminders. They fill out a form, it's entered in the system, and they will be notified when something is due. I've been allowed to create a program that will allow me to enter the information from the form to keep track of the attorney's who have signed up.
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;
public class Attempt1 {
public static void setConnection() throws SQLException {
Connection conn = null;
Statement state = null;
[Code] ....
The issue I have is the method setQuery. It displays a table with the data entered. Where it currently sits at line 21, it does not display the table, nor does it seem to terminate the program. The goal was to update the table with a few entries, and then display the Jtable. When placed above the setInsert method, it displays just fine, and will reflect the new entries added the next time you start it. I'm still learning Java outside of a classroom environment on my own, so I can only imagine that this is riddled with poor coding, but I just can't seem to figure out why it doesn't display the table after the setInsert method is called. In it's current state, this program is just meant to test functions of SQLite with Java. From there it will be created with a GUI.

I want an app that I can use to save the name, address, item sold, subject discussed and date that I visited someone - in a job similar to a sales rep. I would like to be able to choose how to sort the info so that if I sort by date I can see who hasn't been visited for the longest and start there. If I think of someone's name then of course I want to sort by name.
One of my friends says he works with "php"[? I'm still learning these terms] and everything happens online. I would like it to be an android app so it can be done without an internet connection ....

I'm working on a lab for my class. I need to create a Priority Queue in Java using an array list. The kicker is that each node has to have a "handle" which is just an object which contains the index of of the node that it's associated with. I know that sounds weird but we have to implement it this way. Anyway, my priority queue seem to work fine except the handle values apparently aren't updating correctly because I fail the handle test. Also, I run into problems with handles only after extractMin() is called, so I figured the problem would be somewhere in that method but I've been through it a million times and it looks good to me.
Here is my Priority Queue Class:
package lab3;
import java.util.ArrayList;
/**
* A priority queue class supporting operations needed for
* Dijkstra's algorithm.
*/
class PriorityQueue<T> {
final static int INF = 1000000000;
ArrayList<PQNode<T>> queue;
[Code] ....
I can post the tests too but I don't know if that would do much good. Just know that the queue works as is should, but the handles don't point to the right nodes after extractMin() is utilized.

I'm trying to create an algorithm that compares the first names of two people, which goes ahead and cancels similar characters and then counts the remaining characters to give a 0 if the remaining characters are even and a 1 if the remaining characters odd.

I want to create a program that takes n number of people (String vector) and assigns them a random group number (int) the range from 1 to k. The number n is evenly divided by k.
I have created a program that associates every String with a random int number. There is however the problem that the random generator just gives a random number, but doesn't make an equal number of people for each group. Which means even if the numbers are random, some of the numbers happen to come up more times than others.
How can I write, to make sure that each number is generated the same amount of times?

In Java® identifiers, you are allowed letters and numbers (also _ $£¢€ etc, but you should avoid them in normal identifiers). So you cannot have spaces. You cannot write public class Hello World because the javac tool will see World as a separate identifier and not understand what it means and will fail to compile the code. You must write public class HelloWorld instead. And because the class is labelled public you must call the source file Hello World. java. Since you can't have two classes with the same [fully‑qualified] name, you cannot write two public classes in the same source file.
“What about names of source files?” somebody will ask. Well, some file systems will permit spaces in file names; ext4 will and I suspect so will NTFS. Can you write file names with spaces in? You would have to have a different name of the class inside the file, because you can't have spaces, and you therefore cannot make the class public, but maybe you can write a package‑private class with a different name.
On ext4, you have to write out the name of the file and the shell will interpret the space as meaning there are two different file, so you have to escape the space.

The class Overloading below asks for two names and prints three different greetings. Your task is to write the class methods missing from the class declaration. Methods print the greetings as shown in the example print.
Hint:The names and parameter types of the needed methods can be checked from the main method because all methods are called there. This exercise also does not require you to copy the source code below to the return field.
The method declarations will suffice.
Example output
Type in the first name: John
Type in the second name: Doe
**********
Hi!
**********
Hi, John
**********
Hi, John and Doe
**********
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Overloading {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String firstName, secondName;

This is a piece of a program I am trying to write,my only problem is when an incorrect input is entered in "genreType" it still counts as a loop and therefore I do not end up with 20 results I am looking for..I have tried multiple different ways but nothing seems to work for me.

I am starting a program that is dealing with arrays. My issue, allowing a user to enter 'x' number of people into an array. How do I first allow them to enter the size of an array, and then enter strings (list) into that array. In addition to this, I need to specify the number of boxes of cookies sold by each person and keep a tally of the number of people selling cookies in each category (e.g. 1-10, 11-20...etc). Instead of having a number 100000, I want the user to enter that size, 'x'.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class cookie {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
int x = 100;
double saleCount[] = new double [x];
String[] girlScout = new String[100000];

"col1": "c10",
"col2": "c11"
},
{
"col1": "c20",
"col2": "c21",
"col3": "c22"
}
]
}
}
Next to reading I need to assign to two dimensional array, but without giving "col1","col2","col3" a lot.
The array is for example, Array[3][] = {{"c00"},{"c10","c11"},{"c20","c21","c22"}};

So I have a player an enemy and enemy bounds the enemy can go. I need to have the enemy track my position and when I go into the position (I am using a collision method for this) the enemy comes over at a speed of 1. My problem is the enemy jumps to me and then follows at speed of 2 (2 is the player speed). The code is wrong this is why it is jumping and I have my other problems. so my question is what is a good solution for this? I am trying to make a method to track playerposition() so what I am thinking I could do is find x, y of player then store those into an array and return the array to Enemy so he tracks.
player.java
public class Player{
int x = 100; // Location of player
int y = 200; // location of player
int xa = 0; // Representation of where the player goes
int ya = 0; // Representation of where the player goes
private int speed = 2;
[Code] .....
Please note this is not the entire code I have cut some things out that did not need to be there. Also, the code is just to get an idea of what I was thinking of doing. The ideas that are came up with are not meant to be a reflection of what I already have but, what I could add or replace.

I'm trying to make a canteen class that holds water. It holds two quarts of water and two quarts is 100%.
public double maxVolume;
public int percentFull;
Right now the Canteen is empty.
public void Canteen()
{
percentFull=0;
maxVolume=0;
}
And right now I'm trying to make a constructor that specifies the amount of liquid the canteen can hold and specifies the percent full.
public Canteen(double maxVolume, int percentFull)
{
}
Should I make this second Canteen an integer, a double, or something else? Also, how do I make sure the Canteen never reaches higher than 100%. I'm also curious how I can keep maxVolume and percentFull connected so the % of water is consistent with the number of quarts(2) the Canteen can hold.

I have two JFrames: frame1 and frame2. frame2 currently has focus, and I want to determine which component of frame1 would have focus if I were to switch focus to frame1, hopefully without actually temporarily changing focus.
Is it the KeyboardFocusManager who keeps track of which element in each frame has focus? Or does each container itself keep track? How does Java figure out which element in a frame gets focus when I switch to that window?

Which is the best way to keep track of the number of the objects I've created?Is is a good practice to have a static variable, which will be incremented everytime I call a contructor?
Class circle{

private static count;
Circle(double x1, double y1, double radius1){
x=x1;y=y1;radius=radius1;

The code I have below asks the user how many times you want to roll the dice. It rolls dice 1 and dice 2 randomly and gives the total. Now, I'm trying to keep track of the result of each roll using an array that is indexed by the sum of the roll of the two dice. Then I want to output my result in a table that shows each value (from 2 - 12)) and the number of times that value was rolled. I would like to do this preferably with the JTextArea class, but it doesn't have to be. I keep getting errors.The code below works for the dice rolling in the 1st paragraph. I took out all the bad code I was trying to use for the 2nd paragraph.
package Part2pack;
import java.util.Random;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
class Dice{
public static void main (String args[])
{
String input = " ";
int count = 0,dice1,dice2;

ltefera_DiceRoll diceRoll = new ltefera_DiceRoll(10);
System.out.println("Total # of pips" + "
