Searching ArrayList - Cannot Find Symbol For Search Method
Mar 30, 2014
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 am working on a StringBuffer program and I am getting the following error message: Cannot find symbol - method append(java.lang.String) with this part of the code selected:
I was given the Java code for a project and I am supposed to build unit tests to test the performance of seven sorting algorithms and I am getting the following error in my Lab1Test file...cannot find symbol: method sorta(int[]) location: class Lab1Test.
i'm working on a "name sorter" program and i want it so when i add names and such to the list box i can click sort and it sorts the names in A,B,C format.Here is my code:
I'm using Netbeans FYI and a java desktop application. Also, i have looked everywhere and even my teacher has had to look further into it, i really want to get it to work.
I am writing a palindrome program. I don't understand what is wrong with my Main method. It is giving me error and error is "Can not find symbol in main method"
import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; public class PalindromeA extends JFrame { private JTextField inText; private JTextField outText;
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]; } } }
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.
The purpose of this function is to use a Movie object and a binary search tree to find all movies that have been read in through a file that have a certain rating (G,PG,PG-13,R). The error I am getting is that it seems I am not traversing fully through the tree and therefore only some movies with the rating I search for are output, not all of them with that rating. I have tried figuring out why this is happening and at first I thought my tree was unbalanced, but I am sure it is simply because I am not traversing the tree correctly. I think my implementation in the main is close to what I need but it needs some tweaking. This is my BST class which I created and required to use for this purpose.
public class BinarySearchTree { /** * The head of the tree. */ private Node root; /** * Constructor that declares the head of tree to null. */ public BinarySearchTree() { root = null; } /** * Returns null if head of tree is empty. * @return null if head of tree is empty. */ public boolean isEmpty(){
Okay, I will be as succinct as possible. I am writing a rudimentary book store program for homework. The program consists of two class files and a main. The main issue I am having is on getting the search portion of my program to work. I will post as little as I can and still make sense. This is the block of code belongs to my public Book getBook() method, which is of the BookStore class.
I'm almost finished my Bank Account exercise and I found myself stuck at the last part. Its asking me to add a method that asks the user to input the name of the account into which they want to deposit money, then search the ArrayList for that account. If it is found, the user is asked how much money they wish to deposit.
I already have my deposit method sorted so basically what I need is just searching through the ArrayList by the name variable. I assume its don't by iterating through with some form of for loop.Heres what I have:
import java.util.Scanner; public class BankAccount { private double balance; private String name; public BankAccount(double balance, String name){ this.balance = balance;
[Code]......
And the driver class
import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.Scanner; public class BankDriver { Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); ArrayList<BankAccount> list; public BankDriver(){
An array which contain a list of names. I let for a user input and I use that to search through the array. For example lets say the string name "Christian" is stored inside the names array and the user types in Chri, the program looks in the array and finds a name that contains Chri and prints them out. How do I go about doing this?
I am having trouble compiling my simple java program, i keep having this "cannot find symbol"Untitled.jpg but the ODD thing is when i tried to run my code through online java compiler like Ideone.com it compiles perfectly fine. "Check it here".is it because of my jdk? I use the latest jdk 8. and the book I'm following is "Head First Java"..here's my code
My assignment is to create an ObjectOutputStream object mapped to a binary output file named "ItemRecord_binary.txt". So far I've created a ItemRecord class with a constructor with getters and setters and a override toString method. It compiled. This ItemRecordReport class does not compile because of a can't find symbol error. Here is the code:
import java.io.*; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.ObjectOutputStream; import java.util.Scanner; public class ItemRecordReport { private ObjectOutputStream output;
I have written the below program and while compiling i am getting error. The program and error details goes as follows,
//compute distance of light travels using Java long variable. class Light { public static void main(String args[]) { int lightspeed; long days; long seconds; long distance;
[code]....
I have given the Java file name as 'Light.java'. I have also verified the availability of the java file and compilation path. both are matching. Also, Java file name and class name defined are also same.
I keep getting errors, cannot find symbol. Not sure where I am going wrong.
java:139: error: non-static method integerPrompt(String,int,int) cannot be referenced from a static context int regNumber = integerPrompt("Enter registration number", 100, 5000); ^ Program7.java:145: error: cannot find symbol theSubject = integerPrompt(SubjectsPrompt, 1, SubjectQty); ^ symbol: variable theSubject location: class Program7
Java Code:

I have the following code snipet and I get the following errors
interface expected here [javac] private class fileFilter implements FileNameExtensionFilter{ [javac] ^ cannot find symbol [javac] symbol : method fileFilter(java.lang.Object) [javac] location: class gui.components.StartupDialog
I thought I have been getting this right, but I keep getting stuck on this one error. Here is my code. Why it keeps getting a 'cant find symbol' error?
// import statements import java.util.Scanner; // class declaration public class GradeConverter { // main method declaration public static void main(String[] args) { // display a welcome message
[code]....
It is just a simple input a number between 1-100 and it spits out the letter grade.
I have an Input Box in which the user is supposed to enter the answer to a sum, when the answer is equal to the correct answer I want to show a MessageBox that tells them they've got it correct. But when I run the project it crashes saying it 'cannot find symbol',
Heres the code too:
import javax.swing.*; import java.util.Random; import java.util.Scanner; public class SwingInputExample { public static void main(String args[])
I'm picking up Java for a class, and having prior C++ knowledge this stuff has been fairly straightforward with the exception of trying to learn the whole IO system in this language.
className.java:line_number: error: cannot find symbol myList.add(input); ^
I have dealing with this error left and right after picking up this language, and I can never seem to figure out what it's trying to tell me. I've heard people say it's referring misspelled objects or methods, but I've double and triple checked my code and that never seems to be true for me.I'm trying to make a small program which will allow me to play with the LinkedList object so I can gain some familiarity with how they work in Java, and I have this code so far:
import java.io.*; import java.util.*; public class playWithLists { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { //List<String> myList = new LinkedList<String>(); LinkedList myList = new LinkedList(); BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); String input = "";
[code]....
The compiler is giving me an error at line 16 (specifically: myList.add(input); )
import javax.swing.*; public class opt { public int code[]; public static void main(String[] args) { int xxx = 1;
[Code] ....
Where did I did wrong cus I keep getting these errors: What do I need to do to fix the errors?
F:>javac opt.java opt.java:25: error: cannot find symbol cd.checkDeclare<zz>; ^ symbol: method checkDeclare<String> location: variable cd of type code[] java:32: error: cannot find symbol
programming altogether and after almost reaching half way in the 'Head first java' book I decided to try and apply some of what I've learnt so far and write my first 'Object orientated' program. As this is pretty much the first program I've ever written, I decided to write a program to ask for two integers and add them both together and then present them to the user (the goal eventually being a basic fully working command line calculator with +,-,* and /. I'm expecting many compile errors but not the following errors below.
I have three .java files contained within a folder and after trying to figure out how to compile all three files (as they use one another) all at once, I came across this ---> javac *.java
so I typed this in the command line whilst in the directory containing the three files assuming *.java is the best approach and then I receive the following errors:
inputOutput.java:10: error: cannot find symb c.addition() = intIn.nextInteger(); ^ symbol: variable c location: class inputOutput
import java.util.*; public class CQ1v1{ public static void main(String args []) { Scanner in = new Scanner (System.in) ; String name = ""; System.out.println("Welcome to the Interrogator") ;
[Code] ....
When I compile getting
CQ1v1.java:12: error: cannot find symbol x = in.nextLine (); ^ symbol: variable x location: class CQ1v1 CQ1v1.java:21: error: cannot find symbol
