Simple Recursion Method - Accept Integer Parameter N And Return Sum Of First N Reciprocals

Nov 1, 2014

I am practicing some basic recursion and I was trying to solve this problem

Write a method sumTo that accepts an integer parameter n and returns the sum of the first n reciprocals. In other words:

sumTo(n) returns: 1 + 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + ... + 1/n

For example, the call of sumTo(2) should return 1.5. The method should return 0.0 if passed the value 0 and should throw an IllegalArgumentException if passed a value less than 0.

This is my attempt to do it , however my output is always a 0.0 , and i do not understand why :

public static double sumTo(int n ){
if(n<0){
throw new IllegalArgumentException();
}
else if (n==0){
return 0.0;

Accept Array Of Non-negative Integers And Return Second Largest Integer

May 22, 2015

Write a function that accepts an array of non-negative integers and returns the second largest integer in the array.

Return -1 if there is no second largest.

The signature of the function is int f(int[ ] a)

Examples:

if the input array isreturn{1, 2, 3, 4}3{{4, 1, 2, 3}}3{1, 1, 2, 2}1{1, 1}-1{1}-1{}-1 

In the signature what I understood is, I should write my function with the given signature,

The return type is "int"

method name is "f"

parameter is "a" right ?
 
Writing my doubts beside the particular line in the code

public static void main()  // In the answer why they didn't use the class ?

In main method why they didn't use parameters ?(String[] args)

{
a1(new int[]{1, 2, 3, 4}); // what is "a1" here is it array name ? this line initializing the array ?
a1(new int[]{4, 1, 2, 3});
a1(new int[]{1, 1, 2, 2});
a1(new int[]{1, 1});
a1(new int[]{1});
a1(new int[]{});


static int a1(int[] a) // what is "a" here parameter ? and "a1" is method name ? why they used the array name and method name same ?

{
int max1 = -1;
int max2 = -1;
for (int i=0; i<a.length; i++)

Method That Accept Object As A Parameter

Jan 3, 2015

I have a method that accepts as a parameter an object:

public void addClient(Client c){ }

Client is a class which has a constructor that has two String parameters:

public Cliente (String name, String lastname){
this.name = name;
this.lastname = lastname;
}

In the main add a Client in this way:

addClient(new Cliente("first", "second"));

Now, i have an array of Client, so I would like to enter within this. Example:

public void addClient(Client c){
for (int i = 0; i<client.length ; i++) { // client is an array of Client object
client[i] = c; // Enter a c in the array, but does not work!
System.out.println("test "+clienti[i]); // print Client@15db9743
}
}

I have used the println for check if worked insertion, but the result shows no

Method Must Return Int Type - If Given Integer Is Strong Return A / If Not Return B

Sep 7, 2014

I want to use a method, which takes for example an int and also returns an integer. For example, if the the given integer is strong return a, if it is notstrong return b. How would you write that in a Code?

I want to use that in a more general way. I want to give a method mlong the value X of the type date and let it return an int. Type date consists of 3 int, one of them is the int month.

mlong should return an int depending on the X.moth. at the moment my code looks like this:

// File1:
public class date {
public int day;
public int month;
public int year;
}

// File 2:
public class monthlength {
public int mlong(date X) {
int t;
t = X.month;
if (t == 1 || t == 3 || t == 5 || t == 7 || t == 8 || t == 10 || t == 12)
{ return 31; }
if(t == 4 || t == 6 || t == 9 || t == 11)
{return 30;}
}

Create A Recursion Method That Takes ONLY ARRAY As A Parameter

Mar 9, 2015

so i have this question where it wants me to create a recursion method that takes ONLY THE ARRAY as a parameter, and without using loops or static variables inside the method, and then the method returns the smallest value in that array. However, i tried making the simple if statements where i compare the first element of the array with the second element using the length of the array and decreasing it to get the next elements and compare it again by calling the recursion method, but the problem is when i call the method again, the length does not decrease, even if i store it in a variable, the variable will initialize itself again, and the length wont change.

Test Driver Does Not Accept String Parameter

Jan 6, 2015

I wrote a couple classes and am trying a test driver but it is having an error I do not know how to solve.

Student Class:

public class Student{
private Course[] courseList;
private static int numCourses;
private final int maxCourses;
public Student(int max){
maxCourses = max;

[Code] .....

Error:
javac tester.java
tester.java:6: error: cannot find symbol
one = new Course(name);
^
symbol: variable name
location: class tester
1 error

Same issue, just only one error as there is only one line. It seems like it does not accept my parameters as it cannot find symbol.

I forgot to put the "" in the brackets, it's been a month since I have looked at any java and made this simple mistake.

JTextField That Accept Only Integer Input?

Jul 5, 2014

I have a GUI with a JTextField. I need to check that the input entered by the user is made up of only integers.

For example I accept: 1, 10, 530, ...

I do not accept: -10, 1.5, -6 ...

I would like to implement this control by using a regular expression so I would have a code like that.

JTextField text = new JTextField();
String input = text.getText();
boolean bool = checkInteger(input);
if(bool)
System.out.println("Ok");
else
System.out.println("Error");

The checkInteger(String input) method should check if the input string is correct or not.

How can I do to implement this control with regular expressions?

Is there an easier way to do it?

Accept Integer As Input - Display Even Or Odd

Apr 14, 2014

This program is supposed to accept an integer as an input and display the message that the number is even or odd. The main method calls a Boolean method. Write a method private static boolean iseven(int number and the message is printed from the Main method. This is what I have.

import java.util.Scanner;

Program That Accept Input Of Positive Integer And Sum All Digits

Jan 28, 2015

I am attempting to write a program that accepts input of a positive integer, reports each digit and then the sum of all digits. This is what I have so far:

*/
 package numbersum;
import java.util.*; 
public class Week4NumberSum {
static Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in); 
/**
* @param args the command line arguments

[Code]...

It works if I enter 1234567891 (10 digits)
Enter a positive integer: 1234567891
digit: 1
digit: 2
digit: 3
digit: 4
digit: 5
digit: 6
digit: 7
digit: 8
digit: 9
digit: 1

The sum of the digits is 46

But if I enter 11 digits, it fails:

Enter a positive integer: 123456789123 (12)
Exception in thread "main" java.util.InputMismatchException: For input string: "123456789123"
at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Scanner.java:2123)
at java.util.Scanner.nextInt(Scanner.java:2076)
at week4numbersum.Week4NumberSum.main(Week4NumberSum. java:26)

java - Scanner error with nextInt() - Stack Overflow gives me some infor for InputMismatchException - which I find described as In order to deal with this exception you must verify that the input data of your application meet its specification. When this error is thrown, the format of the input data is incorrect and thus, you must fix it, in order for your application to proceed its execution.

I don't understand why the 10 digit integer is OK but the 11 or > digit integer is a mismatch.

Creating A Reverse List - Integer - Using Recursion

Jan 2, 2015

I created this code, seems like it should be working properly and the code is right, but the output is not what it should be.The action gets a List<Integer> and should make it reversed.

As example: 1 2 3 4 5 ---> 5 4 3 2 1

The Nodes in the new list (lst2) should be in a reversed position.The code does compile with no errors.I do have Node<T> and List<T> classes

Java Code:

public class NodeReverse
{
public static void reverse (List<Integer> lst, Node<Integer> node, int counter, List<Integer> lst2, Node<Integer> pos) // Should make lst = lst2 while lst2 is the opposite to lst
{
node = node.getNext();
counter++;
if(node.getNext()!=null)
reverse(lst, node, counter, lst2, pos);

How To Return Values In Object Return Type Function (method)

Apr 2, 2014

How do i take input values for TwoDPoint (which are objects) and return it back in numerical values also print them.

When i create an object in main method and pass values to my function of return type TwoDPoint,it gives error:- found int,int need TwoDPoiint,TwoDPoint.

// Here is what i tried to do:

Created class TwoDPoint that contains two fields x, y which are of type int. Defined another class TestTwoDPoint, where a main method is defined.In the main method created two TwoDPoint objects.

Then I modified the class TestTwoDPoint and add another function to it. This function takes two TwoDPoints as input and returns the TwoDPoint that is farthest from the point (0,0).

Then I added another function to TestTwoDPoint. This function takes two TwoDPoints as input and returns a new TwoDPoint whose x value is the sum of x values of the input TwoDPoint's and whose y value is the sum of the y values of the input TwoDPoint's.

class TwoDPoint {
int x = 2;
int y = 4;
}
class TestTwoDPoint {
public static void main(String args[]) {
TwoDPoint obj1 = new TwoDPoint();
System.out.println(obj1.x);
System.out.println(obj1.y);

Return Integer That Is The Number Of Strings That Starts With S

Apr 29, 2014

Write a Java code of the method startsWithCount that takes an array of strings words and a String S. The method should return an integer that is the number of strings that starts with S.

For example if:words = { "All", "Arab", "size", "Almond", "Allowed", "here"} and S= "All", then the method should return 2

PHP Code:

public class StringwithCount {
public static void main (String[]args) {
String strings[] = { "All", "Arab", "size", "Almond", "Allowed", "here"};
String output= "";
for ( int i  =  0;  i < words.length; i++) {

Create MergeSort Method Without Using Recursion

Nov 6, 2014

We are supposed to create a MergeSort method without the using recursion. Most of the code is already completed, the only thing that I believe I need are two for loops (an inner and an outter) that will make calls to the merge method. I need implementing the sort method of the merge sort algorithm without recursion, where the length of the array is a power of 2. Keep merging adjacent regions whose size is a power of 2. For ex: lengths will be 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,.

public class MergeSorter {
public static void sort(int[] a) {
//for(int i = 1; i <= a.length; i++) the parameters for the for loop are wrong.
{
merge(0,0,1,a);
merge(1,1,2,a);
merge(2,2,3,a);
