Sorting A Map Alphabetically

Nov 30, 2014

I'm trying to create a method that takes a map and sorts it alphabetically. I think I have the logic correct but I'm getting errors when I run it:

private static void sortMapAlphabetically(
Map<String, String> termsAndDefinitions) {
Map<String, String> tempMap = new Map2<String, String>();

Sorting A Text File Alphabetically

Oct 13, 2014

So we have to create a code that reads in a file that has a huge list of words. Our code has to convert every word to all lower cases and then re-sort alphabetically. I was able to turn everything to lower case, but for the re-sorting I keep getting a null pointer exception on the line of the if statement.

import java.io.*;
public class readDict {
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
System.out.println("Opening the file...");

Sorting Data Alphabetically By Second Name In A File?

Apr 11, 2013

I have a problem sorting this file alphabetically by second name. Basically, my method sorts each column alphabetically but i would like to sort the file according to the second name.

File:
Moe     Carl
Saul     Sergio
Rocky     Louis
Ike     Ziken     

This is how my method sorts the file:

Ike          Carl
Moe          Louis
Rocky          Sergio
Saul          ziken
     
Instead
Moe     Carl
Rocky      Louis
Saul     Sergio
Ike     Ziken

Code :
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
class thedata implements Comparable
     {               
          private String firstname;
          private String secondname;

Cycle Through Database Entries Alphabetically

Aug 6, 2014

I have a database of peoples names linked up to a from to enter a new employee.The form has a previous and next button that should cycle through the employees alphabetically.What im doing the cycle by now is ID which isnt in alphabetical order and just goes by the order they where entered in.

Is there any way to cycle through alphabetically instead? Is running a query each time the next/previous button is pressed the correct way or should it just grab all the names in the array. Theres probably 150 names.

I have a project requiring me to build a program having a user input 3 words, sort them alphabetically and output the middle word. I have done some searching and seem to only come back with results for sorting 2 words. I so far have code to get the user input but I am completely lost as to how to sort them alphabetically.

import java.util.Scanner; //The Scanner is in the java.util package.
public class MiddleString {

Sort String List Alphabetically With CompareTo Method / If Else Statements - Logic Errors

Oct 6, 2014

I'm having trouble with sorting Strings- 3 strings inputted by user, and I would like to output them in alphabetical order. I've used the str.compareToIgnoreCase method, and then I've tried to loop them through a series of if/ else statements. Everything I've been able to find online (including the forums here) has suggested to use the Comparator class, or to put the strings into an array, and sort list- I really would like to stick with just the String class, and its methods .

The program itself works and compiles, but I am getting logic errors that I have been unable to solve. I'm using IntelliJ Idea, and I've ran it through the built in debugger, about 100+ times (not exaggerating, lol) just to see what it's doing in particular scenarios. For instance, I can get c, a, b, to print out as a,b,c correctly, but a,b,c, will print out as b,a,c.

For me this is kind of like a Sudoku puzzle, or a Rubik's cube! Each time I fix one scenario, it breaks another one, so I don't know if there's a(logic) solution to fix all possible scenarios (abc, acb, bac etc... to all print abc) or if possibly I just need more if statements. I've only pasted in the area where I'm having problems (the if statements). I'm a big fan of the "Next Line" syntax.

(Note: please assume the non relevant content- import Scanner class, main method, etc... I didn't want to paste the entire program.)

System.out.println("Enter the first statement: ");
//input.nextLine();
string1 = input.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter the second statement: ");
string2 = input.nextLine();
System.out.println("Enter the third statement: ");
string3 = input.nextLine();

Sorting With A Comparator

Mar 26, 2014

I am trying to sort an ArrayList of objects with the comparator as I want to sort based on a certain value for each object. I understand I would need to override compareTo() in the objects class, is there any way I can get around also needing to override for all subclasses of the object?

Sorting With Two Stacks

Oct 16, 2014

So we have to ask the user to put in a string of letters, and bring those letters in as cars to where there is a storage area and an assembly area, and we have to sort them from there into the assembly area with the smallest (A) at the head. I think I set up my code pretty well, but when I run it, no matter what I put in it returns CBAo. Say I input KATE, it should return TKEA but instead CBAo or if I input JANICE it should return NJIECA but it just returns EDCBAo. Here's my code:

import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Stack;
public class carStacksDessart

public static void main(String[] args) {

JSP :: Sorting Query In JSTL?

Jun 21, 2006

i am doing a code using JSTL to fire a query. everything come fine except the resule is not sorted as desired. i am putting the code below--

String sort_order=(String)request.getAttribute("sort_order");
request.setAttribute("sort_order",sort_order);
<sql:query var="viewQueryj" sql= "select USER_ID, PERMISSION_ID, USER_NAME from administrator order by ?">
<sql:param value="${sort_order}"/>
</sql:query>

now the resule is always sorted by USER_ID. if i want to sort it using USER_NAME i pass parameter from controller to this page in sort_oredr variable which comes fine but the result doesn't sort by name, only by id. if i hardcode USER_NAME in query then the result is as desired.

Array Sorting Using Two Different Methods

Nov 18, 2014

The following code is supposed to generate random integers and sort array1 and array2 using two different sorting methods. array1 is to be sorted with a "selection sort" method and array2 is to be sorted with the built-in Arrays.sort() method. However, array1 is the one that has a problem. It does not appear to output any values at all for array size of 4000 or more, such as array1[10000]. The assignment is to generate random integers, sort and benchmark the speeds at which array1 and array2 can generate and sort ints at array1[1000] array2[1000] array1[10000] array2[10000] array1[100000] array2[100000]

/**
*
* The following is a sorting and benchmarking program to sort
* array1 and array2 with 1,000 , 10,000 and 100,000 array sizes.
* array1 uses selection sort from section 7.4 of the book
* and array2 uses the built in Arrays.sort() method.

[code]....

I cannot post the output because the amount of data seems to have crashed the two previous posts I made on this topic due to the size of the problem.

Sorting From Lowest To Highest

I'm very new to Java and ran into a problem. My results are not in order and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

My results come out like this instead of being in order from lowest to highest: "77 99 44 55 22 88 11 0 66 33"

Here's what I have:

public ArrayIns(int max) // constructor
{
a = new long[max]; // create the array

Linked List Sorting

Apr 20, 2014

I have made a node class and im trying to implement a sorting method. I must use a selection sort but with specific instructions: "Your method should not need to use the new operator since it is just moving nodes from one list to another( not creating new nodes)

this is my current implementation ..but i am instantiating new object..

public class NodeInt
{
private int data;
private NodeInt next = null;
public NodeInt(){}
//precondition:
//postcondition:
public NodeInt(int data, NodeInt next)
{
this.data = data;
this.next = next;

edit: this is the part that worked but i had it commented out so i have the previous and current declared above but didnt copy.

Sorting 10 Double Arrays

Sep 17, 2014

I'm trying to sort 10 inputted numbers (double precision) using the Array.sort() method. I can get the 10 numbers inputted, but the output is ten 0.0s; now (and this how I know I am learning some things) I'm fairly certain that the variable number is not storing the numbers inputted by the user otherwise I wild be seeing the program work correctly.

So my question is why isn't number storing the inputs?

import javax.swing.JOptionPane;

public class KrisFrench3 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
double[] number = new double[10];
for(int i = 1; i <= i; i++) {

Stuck Sorting Arrays

Jul 1, 2014

Write a method called isSorted that accepts an array of real numbers as a parameter and returns true if the list is in sorted (nondecreasing) order and false otherwise. For example, if arrays named list1 and list2 store {16.1, 12.3,22.2, 14.4} and {1.5, 4.3, 7.0, 19.5, 25.1, 46.2} respectively, the calls is Sorted(list1) and isSorted(list2)should return false and true respectively. Assume the array has at least one element. A one-element array is considered
to be sorted. public class thirfd {

public static void main(String[] args) {
double[] arr1 = {16.1, 12.3,22.2, 14.4};
double[] arr2 = {1.5, 0.3, 7.0, 19.5, 25.1, 46.2};
isSorted(arr2);
System.out.println(isSorted(arr2));

Why Sections Not Sorting Numerically

Jan 9, 2015

I'm trying to troubleshoot on some existing code that is causing some confusion for me. The code is a snippet from a navigation display that displays Sections of an image. Each section is actually a total of 75 pages and I have an image that is being returned with over 3000 pages. Depending on other images being returned, I won't always know how many total pages or total sections will be returned.

The issue is that when the section numbers are being returned on the screen (strSectionURL = "Section "+ strSectionNumber; ) they are not in numeric order on the display. For example, instead of being 1 - 10 as they are returned (the XML response shows me the section numbers are being retrieved in numerical order), they come back "Section 4, Section 1, Section 10, etc when the URLs are displayed.

Why do they not show in numerical order on the navigation display?

Copy of the class:
NavDisplay.txt

String strInvocationId = null;
 String strStatusString = ImageDisplayHelperBean.IMG_STAT_ERROR;
 StringBuffer sbfStatus = new StringBuffer();
String strStatus = null;
String strCSSClass = "IMAGE_ERROR";
String strSectionURL = null;

Searching And Sorting Arrays

Nov 2, 2014

My code is not working properly. The ascending and descending numbers are not showing up. I believe what it is printing is the memory location. In this lab you will be coding a program that will make use of functions to search and sort an array. There will also be a print method, again complete with a full menu system. The Menu options are listed below in the section labeled menu.You will need to set up a hundred (100) position integer (int) array that is defined in main. You will also need an integer (int) variable called size. By doing this, you will have to pass the array and the size to each method you write.

Menu:

The menu should have the following eight options:
1. Fill the array with random numbers (1 -100)
2. Print the array
3. Sort the array in ascending sequence
4. Sort the array in descending sequence
5. Sequential search of the array for a
6. Binary search of the array for a target
7. Exit (this can be option zero if you prefer)

From these seven Options, one can see that six methods will be needed. Each of the six main functionalities above will need a function that does what they say. When printing the array, it is required to print the position number alongside the value. Please start your positions at zero, and not one. When doing the sorting methods, please use two different sorting algorithms. (ie, use a Min Max sort for ascending and an enhanced bubble for descending.)

For the Searching methods: you should ask for the target (number the user is searching for) in the dispatch method. Then pass the target to the search method. The search method should return the position it was found at (0 - Size) OR -1 if it was not found. Then have the appropriate messages print inside of the dispatch method.You could write another function that does this part if you wish to keep your dispatch method cleaner and more organized. But that is up to you.

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Random;
public class Lab9 {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
int [] values = new int [100];

Sorting Objects By A Number Of Fields

Mar 17, 2014

I am trying to find a concise way to write the sort methods for my class. I am supposed to make a program that can sort objects by a number of fields: year, rank, artist and title.

I used an idea from this thread : java - Sorting a collection of objects - Stack Overflow

And I am trying to use the custom comparator for my sort methods. However for some reason, the sortingBy variable fails to recognize any of the enum types.

Whenever I try to set the sortingBy variable equal to one of them, for example:

Java Code:

private Order sortingBy = Year; mh_sh_highlight_all('java');

I get a "Year cannot be resolved to a variable" error.

What I want to be able to do is make it so every time a specific method is called, say, for example sortTitle(), sortingBy will change to Title, then the SongComparator will sort using the case Title.

Is it possible to do this? I can't figure out how to modify SongComparator's object variables that way.

Java Code:

import java.util.Comparator;
public class SongComparator implements Comparator<Song> {
public enum Order {Year, Rank, Artist, Title}
public Order sortingBy;

Sorting Array In Alphabetical Order

Feb 3, 2015

I am trying to sort an array that I have by alphabetical order but I am having problems. Firstly the code that I have used to sort the array may not even do what I need but havn't got far enough to test it yet so go easy on me . I have read in some places when searching how to do this that I would have to create my own bubble sort in order to achieve this but I was hoping that Java had a built in sort method/function. Secondly I lack the knowledge in java to be able to assign an existing array or even a variable to the newly sorted array as I need the unsorted version with the original name and the newly sorted version as another.

code (This is not all of the code, I decided to include only what I thought was relevant):

import java.util.Arrays;
public class Sentence {
private String words[];
public Sentence(String[] words) { this.words = words; }
@Override
public String toString() {
return "Sentence{" +
"words=" + Arrays.toString(words) +

[Code] ....

Is it possible to shorten the sort function to just this?

public String sorted() {
return Arrays.sort(words);
}
