Searching Large Char Array For Matching Substrings
Feb 10, 2015
I have written an algorithm that compares the chars and returns all the found words in a 20x10 puzzle, but not for a 100x50 puzzle.
The puzzles are loaded in via text file and I have confirmed they're loading correctly.
guesses = String[] of search words
puzzle = char[][] of letters
Why it doesn't work on the large array?
Expected output:
word1, word2, word3
Actual output:
[blank line]
Here's the horizontal algorithm (row by row search)
//temp variable
ArrayList<String> temp = new ArrayList<String>();
try {
//for each guess word
for(String word : guesses) {
int count = 0;

I am having a problem with the following code. It compiles and runs fine however my output is wrong.
public class SplitString {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] string1 = split("ab#12#453", "#");
String[] string2 = split("a?b?gf#e", "[?#]");
for (int i = 0; i < string1.length; i++) {
System.out.print(string1[i] + ",");
[code]....
The split method in the String class returns an array of strings consisting of the substrings split by the delimiters. However, the delimiters are not returned. Implement the following new method that returns an array of strings consisting of the substrings split by the matching delimiters, including the matching delimiters.public static String[] split(String s, String regex)For example, split("ab#12#453", "#") returns ab, #, 12, #, 453 in an array of String, and split("a?b?gf#e", "[?#]") returns a, b, ?, b, gf, #, and e in an array of String.

When I insert: title, category, year, artist in 4 Strings And when I press "enter" i put those 4 in a array "large", and then when I can start a new music insert with 4 new string elements and add those in the large array..So: I have an array "large" with the length 19 (or so..)(max ~100 or so)Then I what to: get,in a new array "title",the elements:0,4,8,12,16 (from the large array) and put them in a scrollable list. And when I select one element in the title array I then whant to get 3 remaining elements from this. And put it in a array called selection.
So the "large" and the "title" arrays must be dynamically sizes... or be copied to a larger sized..
1 can it be done with arrays?
2 how do dynamically change the size of for example the array "title"?
3 how do I receive the elements 0,4,8,12,16 and so on, (to (
large.length-3) and add it to the title array?

{
System.out.println("Decimal Character
");
for(int j = 65; j <= 90; j++)
{
System.out.print(j);
System.out.println(" " + (char)j); //Character
}
}

'm working on a program that is to act as an inventory for a book store. There are two classes (Store and Book), and numerous methods which you will see in my code. The program is supposed to read in an inventory from a file which contains 10 books (each row in the file represents a book with an ISBN number, the price of the book, and the number in stock)and store this file into an array of type Book[]. There is then to be another method to process a purchase interactively. The Store class is also to keep a count of how many books were sold at the time of closing and also how much was made that day.
I'm having some difficulty figuring out how I should set up the purchase processing method though. I've written out how I think it would be set up (not too familiar with the terminology, but I think it would be called pseudo code?) I'll include that now along with a few other notes.
public Book[] purchase(String isbn, double price, int copies) {
int itemsSold;
double totalMade;
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please enter the ISBN number of the book you would like to purchase: ");
[Code] ....
So basically here's what needs to be accomplished with this portion of code:
1.Ask the user to enter the ISBN number of the book they'd like to purchase.
2.Search the array for the object that contains that ISBN.
3.If the ISBN isn't found in the array, display a message stating that we don't have that book.
4.If the ISBN is found but the number of copies is 0, display a message saying the book is out of stock.
5.If the ISBN is found and the number of copies is greater than 0, ask the user how many copies they'd like to purchase.
6.If the number they enter is greater than the number of copies of that book in the array, display a message stating that and ask them to enter another quantity.
7.Once the purchase is complete I need to update the array by subtracting the number of copies of that particular book that was purchased.
8.Print the updated array.
9.Display a count of how many books were purchased, and how much money was made from the purchase.
I know that code has a lot of holes in it, but I'm just trying to get everything together and figure out how to do each step.
The part I'm stuck on right now is trying to figure out how to search the array to first see if the ISBN that was entered is in the array, and then to find the number of copies of the book with that ISBN number.
In case it will visualize what this array looks like, here's a print out of the array from a sample run I just did.
ISBN: 1234567, Price: 31.670000, Copies: 0
ISBN: 1234444, Price: 98.500000, Copies: 4
ISBN: 1235555, Price: 27.890000, Copies: 2
ISBN: 1235566, Price: 102.390000, Copies: 6

How to pass the methods listed below.
public ArrayList<Person> findPerson(String searchFor)
^ this method is suppose to search an array and find whatever you search (numerical or alphabetical)
I have this
public ArrayList<Person> findPerson(String searchFor) {
Main.handleSearchPerson(keyboard, searchFor);
ArrayList<Person> matches = new ArrayList<>();
for (Person p : personList) {
boolean isAMatch = false;

I am not sure if how i am searching the method is correct or how to pass that to another class to put it inside of a switch statement.

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 currently working on a application for a car park system. It uses GUI created by myself and holds 15 parking spaces. The user has the option to add, delete or search for a specific car. When the user adds a new car, details of the car are entered, the cars registration number (saved as a string), and the user had to check one raido button if the car is expensive, large or normal.
Once this information is entered a new instance of a vehicle will be created and the bay the car is allocated to turns green and stored in one of three arrays(expensive, normal or large). I also have a fourth array for creating the parking spaces.Each array can only hold 5 vehicles apart from the fourth which can hold all 15. When searching for a vehicle the user enters the registration of the vehicle they want to find, but I have to search through all three arrays to find it, and if it does not exist showing a message saying so.These are my three arrays
public static ParkingBay[] regularBays = new ParkingBay[5];
public static ParkingBay[] largeBays = new ParkingBay[5];
public static ParkingBay[] expensiveBays = new ParkingBay[5];
String Registration; - saves registration entered from add form
String RegistrationNumber; - saves registration number from search form
I need to search to see if RegistrationNumber is in either of the three arrays if not show a message saying otherwise

I have an array of Strings, one on each line and I need to convert them into an array of char's.
For Example:
This
is
an
Example
of
what
my
input
is.
In order to accomplish that I did the following-
String[] lotsOfText = a.gettingAnArrayAsAReturn();
char [][] myCharArray = new char [lotsOfText.length] [lotsOfText.length];
for(int i=0; i<lotsOfText.length; i++){
for(int j=0;j<lotsOfText[i].length();j++){
myCharArray[i][j] = lotsOfText[j].charAt(j); }}
But whenever I try this and then try to print the output :
for (int i = 0; i < lotsOfText.length; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < lotsOfText[i].length(); j++) {
System.out.print(myCharArray[i][j]);
}
}
I get nothing. I'm not sure what's the flaw in my logic, is it the char array initialization that's wrong or is it something else ?

I have an assignment for my intro class that requires me to read from a file that is a list of songs, their artists, and the year they were released. As seen below, a print line statement prompts the user to enter an artist name, and then it uses a buffered reader to gain input, and then it is supposed to match that input.I realize that this is not a complete statement, but I'm mostly concerned with getting the .indexOf statement to work.Currently it only returns the first object in the array.
for(int i = 0; i < song.length; i++) {
System.out.println("Enter an Artist name");
String input1 = kb.readLine();
if (song[i].getArtist().indexOf(input1) > -1) {
/*tried changing -1 to -2. When I do, it returns the
first array entry, regardless of what I input*/
System.out.println(song[i].toString());
}
}

Goal this time is to take a charArray, copy it into another charArray while reversing the things in it.
E.g. charArray["!ollaH"] into charArrayNew["Hallo!"]
My first idea was to revert the stuff in the Array with a ! cause i saw earlier that u can work with that too revert booleans. Sadly i didnt happen to make it work.
Next thing i thought of was a for loop to go trough the charArray and copy every section into charArrayNew just at the opposite end.
Java Code:
import java.util.Arrays;
public class aufgabe43 {
public static void main(String[] asgr){
char[] charArray
[Code] .....
Eclipse doesn't show any errors, and as u told me last time i did include import java.util.Arrays; to output the array in the end.
When i try to compile the code eclipse returns with an error
Java Code:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 68
at aufgabe43.main(aufgabe43.java:8) mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
Which I frankly don't understand since the array . Length is exactly the same.

So I am working on a project for my Java course and for whatever reason, I am absolutely struggling with this assignment. I've made some progress but I can't seem to completely wrap my head around the algorithm I'm being told to use. I feel that everything is correct up to a particular point.I believe I am having issues moving a char array into a char matrix.
package edu.cofc.csci221.ui;
import java.lang.*;
public class Decoder
{
private int[][] M;
[code]...
Would I just need to loop through lsb one at a time and assign them to sequential spots within D? Basically call my get binary value and such in the outer loop and then use the inner to loop through both arrays and reassign values?

Example fg would be fh
hi gi
I'm having trouble getting the information from one to the other.
[code]public static char[][] translateIt(char[][] english){
int rows = english.length;
int columns = english[0].length;
char[][] chinese = new char[columns][rows];
for(int j=0; j < columns; j++){
for (int i = 0; i < rows; i++){
//chinese[i][j] = english; this is commented out because it didn't work.
}//Ending bracket of columns for loop
}//Ending bracket of rows for loop
return chinese;
}//Ending bracket of translateIt[code]

I have a string array but each cell in the 1d string array stores each character the text file is :
"START START START
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog 1234567890-= !"$%^&*()_+ QWERTYUIOP{}ASDFGHJKL:@~|ZXCVBNM<><? /.,mnbvcxzasdfghjkkl;'#][poiuytrewq789654123.0
+-*/``""$% hello this is a test file using all the characters availible on the keyboard for input END END END END"
so in the string it is:[0] = S, [1]=A, [2]=R ...ect along the text basically i need to convert each character in each cell of the 1d string array to its hesidecimal value..i have created my own method which will take in a char and return a string containing the charcters hex value.
public static String toHex(char c) {
char char2ascii = c;
int i = 0;
int num = (int) char2ascii;
String hex ="";
[code]...
what i want to do is run each cell through the toHex method so i eventually have a string array containing the hex value of each character in my text.
example..i want:
String[] hexarray = S, T, A, R, T
a run it through my method to convert to hex then it will become
String[] hexarray = 53, 54, 41, 52, 54
Im not allowed to use inbuilt libarys and classes to do the hex conversion thats why i have my own method for it .

I am relatively new to java, and i am trying to create a window inside of a 2d char array, and eventually i will have to draw other shapes in this window. so for example
* * * * * * * * *
* *
* *
* *
* *
* *
* *
* *
* * * * * * * * *
The problem is my window is not drawing correctly too the border, but a couple extra chars on the x columns. Here is code. The dimensions of the window will eventually be passed through scanner in main, if i ever work out how to even draw it.Also, in class we never learnt to use the Graphics class, so im pretty sure we are not supposed to use it.
public class Window
{ //default values
private int xRow;
private int yCol;
private char ch;
public char[][] windowz = new char[30][20]; //30,20 (yx)flat values cuz doesnt work

I know that I need to use substrings, but I'm not sure how to implement them. All of the names are red in from the file "employees.txt".
Using the file Employees.txt
1) Scan the file and create user ids for each person according to the following scheme
a) Take the first and last character of the first name, convert them to upper case
b) Take the first and last character of the last name, convert them to upper case
c) Concatenate the results from a and b
i) Example: John Brown would yield => JNBN
d) Add the length of the first name to the length of the last name, disregarding spaces
e) Concatenate the result from step c to the result of step d
i) Example: John Brown would yield => JNBN9
f) Concatenate a four digit number to the end of this.
i) The numbers should begin with 0000 and increment by 1
ii) Example: If John Brown is the fifth name in the list the resulting UserID would be => JNBN90004
2) Display the user ids in four columns with a width of 14

I'm trying to convert all letters in a 2D char array into number. As results, I want a = 0, b=1, c=2, ... z=25.
Then, I tried this as part of my code:
char [][] letters = {{'i', 'u'}, {'a', 'g'}, {'e', 'k'}};
for (int i = 0; i < letters.length; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < letters[i].length; j++) {
if (letters[i][j] >= 'a' && letters[i][j] <= 'z') {
letters[i][j] = (char) ((letters[i][j] - 'a') + '0');
}
}
}
The result of my code is not what I expected before.
From 'a' to 'j', it worked well. But, from 'k' until 'z' it didn't print expected number.
What's wrong with my code and what is the correct way to fix it?

What I'm trying to do is compare String input to a char array. Let me make it a little more plain, I'm working on a cipher assignment, and my line of thought is this: I will get String input from the user, COMPARE the characters in the string input to an alphabet array, which will then be compared to the cipher array so that the cipher's counterpart can be chosen over the alphabet's. Any way that I might compare the random input keyed in by the user to that alphabet array?

I had a Rest web service call and get InputStream.Now i want to Write Input Stream to PrintWriter of servlet.So that it can be downloaded.I am able to write String and file can be downloaded using following code, i want it to work for Input streamFollowing is code:
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename="" + name + ".pdf"");
response.getWriter().write(is);
Write can take following:
write(String)
write(char[])
write(int)
write(String, int len, int off)
write(char[], int len, int off)
I think char[] will not harm PDF file which is going to download in it
