Simple Program Giving Negative Result For Amount Of Calculations Done

Mar 5, 2014

Why this extremely simple program seems to be giving me a negative value for amount of calculations done within one minute ( Just using it as a bit of fun to see how different computers in the office perform).

Java Code:

class Benchmark {
public static void main(String[] args) {
long endTime = System.currentTimeMillis() + 60000;
int count = 0;
for (int i = 0; System.currentTimeMillis() < endTime; i++) {
double x = Math.sqrt(System.currentTimeMillis());
count = i;
}
System.out.print(count + " calculations per minute");
}
} mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

I am getting results between -2.1billion and -3.4billion which to me would make sense since they are not the best computers in the world but I would be expecting a positive value?

Calculations / Conversions - Calculate Correct Amount Of Change Due To A Customer

Sep 12, 2014

Here are the instructions to my assignment:

A shopkeeper in Diagon Alley needs you to write a program that will calculate the correct amount of change due to a customer. (In Diagon Alley they use three coins with different values, given below).

1. Prompt the user to input the amount of sale in Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts.

2. Prompt the user to input the amount of money given by the customer in Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts.

3. Create constants that represent:

a. 1 Galleon = 17 Sickles

b. 1 Sickle = 29 Knuts

4. Perform the necessary calculations and conversions to compute the correct change in the least number of coins.

5. create a formatted receipt recording the entire transaction.

Here are what is steps 1 and 2 and 5 but problem with are 3 and 4. I need to create the constants and use proper conversions to give the right amount of change back.

Java Code:

import java.util.Scanner;
public class OperatorFormatting {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Welcome to Flourish and Blotts");

[Code] ....

Basically, on steps 3 and 4 which are creating the constants and using the to make the proper conversions to give the customer the proper amount of change Due.

Numbers Divisible By 6 - Code Is Giving Different Result Then Expected

Aug 22, 2014

I am having problems with writing a simple program to see if a number is divisible by 6.

public void run() {
println("This program will display all numbers divisible by");
println(" 6 between 1 and 100.");
int x =1;
boolean divide =(x%6==0);

[Code] ....

It is telling that every number is not divisable by 6?

Finding Longest Increasing Sequence Not Giving Proper Result

Jan 28, 2015

Okay so I need to be able to read a file and then be able to find the longest sequence of increasing numbers.

So if the file was this, (this is Ass1Q2_test4.txt)

97 47 56 36 60 31 57 54 12 55
35 57 41 13 82 80 71 93 31 62
89 36 98 75 91 46 95 53 37 99
25 45 26 17 15 82 80 73 96 17
75 22 63 96 96 36 64 31 99 86
12 80 42 74 54 14 93 17 14 55
14 15 20 71 34 50 22 60 32 41
90 69 44 52 54 73 20 12 55 52
39 33 25 31 76 45 44 84 90 52
94 35 55 24 41 63 87 93 79 24

the output should be,

(5,0) with cost 12
(6,0) with cost 14
(6,1) with cost 15
(6,2) with cost 20
(7,2) with cost 44
(7,3) with cost 52
(7,4) with cost 54
(6,3) with cost 71
(5,3) with cost 74
(4,3) with cost 96

Greatest path is of length 10.

Now, the code that I have works, kind of. Instead of recurring several times at each point, it only recurs once.

So say I'm looking at (1,1). With (1,1) being 57. The area around it looks like this.

97 47 56
35 57 41
89 36 98

Now when I look at it, there are several paths it can take. It can go 57, 97 or 57, 89 or 57, 98. However, I'm pretty sure that it just uses the first one that corresponds with the first if statement that is valid. So I start checking north of the value, then northeast, then east, then southeast, which at southeast is where I find my first greater than value. After it finds it's first valid number, it then continues from that number, instead of checking if there are other longer paths stemming from the original value.

In conjunction with that, you can see that the printout just returns all paths from each value. Which isn't what I want. I need a way to store the longest current path, then check each path after to see if it's longer. If it is, it's replaced, if not, it stays the same.

I've also attached Ass1Q2_test4.txt

Java Program Using Apache POI Giving Exceptions

May 13, 2015

I am having some serious difficulty getting my project off the ground. I have the following code:

FileInputStream file = new FileInputStream(new File("src/retestchecker/test_sheet.xlsx"));
//Get the workbook instance for XLS file
XSSFWorkbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook(file);
//Get first sheet from the workbook
XSSFSheet sheet = workbook.getSheetAt(0);
Row row = sheet.getRow(0);
Cell x = row.getCell(3);
System.out.println(x);

Everything is properly imported, etc etc.. But I am getting this error and I am not sure what it means:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xmlbeans/XmlException
at retestchecker.RetestChecker.main(RetestChecker.java:23)
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException

[Code] .....

Java Result: 1

I am using Netbeans and the latest version of Apache POI that was released May 11, 2015.

The line 23 that the error refers to is this line:

XSSFWorkbook workbook = new XSSFWorkbook(file);

Grade Average Program - Hit Button Reseved For Calculations

Nov 23, 2014

I have written a simple grade average program. This is my code:

package programs;
 import java.util.Scanner;
 public class GradeAverage {
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
int number;
int counter = 0;
int grade;
 
[Code] ....

Now the program is working just fine but what I don't like about it is the fact that you have to enter the number of grades before entering the grades. What I would prefer is to write your grades, hit some button that is reserved for calculating the average and then get the output.

Java Program That Specifies Three One-dimensional Arrays Names Price / Amount And Total

Dec 2, 2014

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

Averaging Grades Program - Take Input From User Until They Enter Negative Number

Feb 2, 2015

Ok so I have my program working for the most part. In this program I am supposed to take input from the user until they enter a negative number and that works, the problem is that it doesn't work if I enter a negative number on the first prompt. For example if I enter a 100 it would prompt me again and if I enter a negative number it would quit and give me the average, but if I enter a negative number the first time I am prompted the program just gives me an error. How do I fix that?

import java.util.List;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Application {
public static void main(String [] args){
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
List<Integer> grades;

Exception Thrown If User Enters Negative Number - Program Gets Suspended

Oct 19, 2014

In my cs class, we have to write a program that throws an exception if the user enters a negative number, the program should prompt the user to enter only positive numbers and then let them retype the number. But everytime I throw an exception, my program gets suspended.

What am I doing wrong, or is there no way to continue a program if an exception is thrown? Does the program automatically get suspended when an exception is thrown?

try{
do
{
N = kb.nextDouble();
if(N<0) {
throw new NegativeArraySizeException();
}
else
j++;
}
while(j==0);
fill.size(N);
}
catch(NegativeArraySizeException e) {
System.out.println("The number you entered must be positive. Please try again.");

How To Print Result Of Program In Output File

I have printed the result of my program into an output file.

For some reason I can't figure out how to get the file output.txt to actually print.

I've tried printing it like I would normally print a file but it's not working.

Java Code:

final PrintStream console = System.out;
File file = new File("output.txt");
PrintStream out = new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream(file));
System.setOut(out);

System.setOut(console);
