Trying To Calculate Fine Using Method Calls
Jul 3, 2014
I am trying to calculate a fine in a PoliceOfficer object with method calls to a ParkedCar and ParkingMeter object. The word problem is:
The fine is $25 for the first hour or part of it and $20 for every additional hour of part of it.
My code is:
public class PoliceOfficer
public static final int PARKING_FINE1 = 25;
public static final int PARKING_FINE2 = 20;
public static final int NUMBER_OF_MINUTES_OVER_PARKED = 60;
public double calculateFine(){
double calculateFine = 0;
[Code] ....
obviously the fine is not calculated correctly but I'm not sure how to proceed from here...

I have two classes (Daughter and Son) that contain some very similar method definitions:
public class Family {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Daughter d = new Daughter();
Son s = new Son();
d.speak();
s.speak();
[Code] .....
Each of those classes has a "speak" method with two out of three lines being identical. I could move those into a parent class, but I need each of the child classes to continue to exhibit its unique behavior. I'm trying the approach below, which replaces the unique code with a call to a "placeholder" method that must be implemented by each child class:
public class Family {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Daughter d = new Daughter();
Son s = new Son();
[Code] .....
This works and moves the shared code from two places (the Daughter and Son classes) into one place (the new Mother class, which is now a parent class of Daughter and Son). Something about this feels a bit odd to me, though. It's one thing for a child class to override a parent class's methods to extend or alter their behavior. But, here, I've implemented an abstract method in the parent class to alter what happens when the parent class's method (speak(), in this case) is called, without overriding that parent class method itself.

Consider the two simple Java classes below:
class Computer {
Computer() {
System.out.println("Constructor of Computer class.");
}
void On() {
System.out.println("PC turning on...");
[Code]...
After the program run, how do I trace (1) which object call which method (2) and how many times?

If i have 2 classes, Top and ClassB which extends Top
public class Top {
String variable;
public Top(){
setVariable();
}
void setVariable(){
variable = "variable is initialized in Main Class";
[code]....
So what is happening when ClassB inherits from Top?I know that the B constructor is calling super, so does that mean its calling setVariable (in Top?) but as its overridden in ClassB, then that is whats being called and setting the String variable?

I don't remember where but I faintly recall one of the oracle docs examples (dealing with GUI basics I think) having something similar to
button.add(lbl).addIcon().addActionListener(al);
but only in the aspect of using .method.method.method
The reason I'm asking is because I want to shorten this
int j = 0;
for(int i = 0; i <= 6; i+=3){
pnl[j+2].add(lbl[i+5]);
pnl[j+2].add(lbl[i+6]);
pnl[j+2].add(drop[j]);
pnl[j+2].add(lbl[i+7]);
pnl[j+2].add(btn[j]);
j++;
}
Into something like this
int j = 0;
for(int i = 0; i <= 6; i+=3){
pnl[j+2].add(lbl[i+5])
.add(lbl[i+6])
.add(drop[j])
.add(lbl[i+7])
.add(btn[j]);
j++;
}
I might be way off though... but I'm just wondering under what circumstances would this be possible
When I try it in Eclipse a little notification appears that says...
"The method add(PopupMenu) in the type Component is not applicable for the arguments (JLabel)"
When I google 'Component' I see it appears to have something to do with Serialization (which I'll need to look into)

I think its a standard concept but just not getting it. I have 3 classes:
1) Base class
2) Derived class, which extends base
3) TestClass
public class Base {
public void display() {
System.out.println("Display method in Base");
}
}
class Derived extends Base {
public void display() {
System.out.println("display method in Derived");
[Code] .....
So if i run this, my results are:
Display method in Base
display method in Derived
display method in Derived
Thats cool, no problems there, but if i change my Display method in Base and Derived to static methods then the results become:
Display method in Base
display method in Derived
Display method in Base
So why oh why does obj3.display() now print "Display method in Base"?
(and yes I know the calls should be static calls, but for sake of arguments -- or is that the whole problem, that technically obj3.display() is an incorrect call as it can only be Base.display() or Derived.display() when display() is a static method ).

I have a multithreaded application. I have a Logger class with static methods that I use across threads. Would it behoove me to add the synchronized keyword to the static methods of the Logger class since I use this class statically in different threads?

Consider the following recursive method that calculates the greatest common divisor using Euclidean method.
PHP Code:
public static int GCD ( int x , int y )
{
if ( y == 0 )
return x;
else if ( x >= y && y > 0)
return GCD ( y , x % y );
else return GCD ( y , x );
}
Trace the above method for x=32 and y=46

My application with Oracle Database only works with Ethernet, I tried to connect via wireless without any response. When I run the command netstat the port state is WAIT TIME and then be closing. The clients machines run Windows 7 and 8 and the server run Suse Linux Enterprise Server 10 SP2, if the client machine run XP all works fine. I disabled the firewalls in the both sides.

I've been looking at the calculating PI using Monte Carlos method. All of the codes request an input from the user to be able to determine PI. However, I want the program to print out only 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100,000 and 1,000,000,000 for PI.

Write method distance, which calculates the distance between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). All numbers and returned values should be of type double. Incorporate this method into an program that enable the user to enter the coordinates of the points, then calculate and display the distance by calling the method –distance.
I've tried numerous times to make it work and I'm on the right path, however I'm missing some things in the code to make my results look like this later on, which I've attached onto this post.

I have to write a program to calculate my weight on different planets and to do that, I have to read in the surface gravity of all the planets from a file using a separate method from main
public static double[] readGravity() throws IOException
{
double[] surfaceGravity = new double[8];
Scanner readFile = new Scanner("gravity1.txt");
int i = 0;
while (readFile.hasNext()) {
surfaceGravity[i] = readFile.nextDouble();
i++;
}
return surfaceGravity;
}
I get this message in the while loop when I try to run the program:
java.util.InputMismatchException;
null (in java.util.Scanner)

I have understood my programming class up to this point and now I have been given a lab that I can't figure out for the life of me. Here what I have to do: Write a program that will call a method (called f) to calculate the following function" f(x)=(x^2)-16...this is what the output should be:
x f(x)
1 -15
2 -12
3 -7
4 0
5 9
6 20
7 33
8 48
9 65
10 84
I guess it also has to print this output in a table even though my professor never mentioned it. Usually
public class Lab12 {
public static int f(int x)
{
return x*x-16;
[code]....

I need to modify the drawShape method to calculate the distance from the starting point (the diameter) of any shape regardless of how many sides I give it, but I have absolutely no clue where to begin with this. The ultimate goal of the program is to calculate the value of pi using the shape that is drawn.
Java Code:
public class PiTurtle extends Turtle
{
private double mySize;
private int mySides;
private double diameter = 0;

I am trying to write a loop that calculates the distance traveled (distance = speed * time). It should use the loop to calc how far the vehicle traveled for each hour of time. My program asks for hours and then mph but its not calculating time * speed. Here is my code.
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter Hours Traveled ");
int hoursTraveled = input.nextInt();
System.out.println("Enter MPH ");
int mph = input.nextInt();

I've just been having a go at an exercise where I have to create and use a class called Point, with two fields of type double. I have to create some methods for it, one of which is a distanceTo(Point) method, that calculates the distance to another point. I've tried to keep the distanceTo(Point) method short so have created some other methods to use within the method. My question is about the getDistance() method that I've made. As you can see below, I've given it two parameters, which are references to values within two Point objects (this.x and otherPoint.x).
double distanceTo(Point otherPoint) {
double distanceX = getDistance(this.x, otherPoint.x);
double distanceY = getDistance(this.y, otherPoint.y);
return calculateLength(distanceX, distanceY);
}

How the recursion works. I tried to figure out writing down low, mid, high at each recursive call. But I seem to be making a mistake somehow. I don't understand where the values are returned to in
if(leftmax>rightmax){
return leftmax;}
else
return rightmax;
Here's the code:
public class Maximum{
public static int max(int[] a,int low,int high){
int mid,leftmax,rightmax;
if(low==high)
return a[low];
[Code] ....
firstly leftmax=max(a,0,4)
Then what is the next line executed?Is it rightmax=max(a,5,8).
After this is it leftmax=max(a,5,6)
rightmax=max(a,7,8)
I tried to understand what these recursion calls by writing them down.But I somehow make a mistake.

I use jboss eap 6.2 under eclipse.I perform a tutorial on EJB and I want to show the difference between a stateless session bean and a statefull session bean. I want demonstrate that the first one keep its state (if it has one) but that 2 successive don't send back necessarily the same SLSB : it send back the SLSB that is ready in the pool. But I don't suceed in obtaining 2 different SLSB by 2 successive call. The system always send me back the same SLSB.
