Using Substring Methods To Format Numbers Between 1,000 And 999,999
Mar 20, 2015
Write a program that reads number between 1,000 and 999,999 from the user and prints it without a comma separating the thousands. Read the input as string. Find the length of the string and use the substring to break it into two pieces. Do not include the comma. You can then concatenate using the + symbol to reassemble without the comma. For example if the number is 123,456. First would equal 123 and second would equal 456. noCommaNumber - 123456.
I do not think it is required to only allow numbers in that range in the code. My question is how to get the first half of the number before the comma in a string to make the last line work. What I think is not doing what I need is the line String first = numberIn.substring(numberIn.indexOf(",", 0)); This is just the last thing I tried.Getting the second half is done using IndexLastOf method in the substring class javaforumquest.jpg

I am working with a program I wrote for class. I got it to compile and do what I want, But I was wondering how I can format my methods to to display a decimal with 1-2 decimal places. Would I create a method in my NumberAnalysis class to do it for me? Or would I declare an instance of the DecimalFormat class in my main method?
import java.util.Scanner; //Needed for Scanner Class
import java.io.*; //Need for File and IOException
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Ex8_11 {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{
{
DecimalFormat decformatter = new DecimalFormat("#0.00");
[Code] .....
This is my output:
Lowest Number: 1.09
Highest Number: 82.76
Total Number: 367.89000000000004
Total Average Number: 30.657500000000002
Think I just solved the answer to my own question, I did it by declaring double variables in my main method and called the methods and instantiated the variables into the methods... Is there a better way to do this?
package lesson4.skowronek;
import java.util.Scanner; //Needed for Scanner Class
import java.io.*; //Need for File and IOException
import java.text.DecimalFormat;
public class Ex8_11 {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException{

I am trying to do is extract numbers that are in word format in a long String, i.e. a song, and return each of their numerical values, in order to add them all up. So I'd like to calculate the sum of all of the numbers in the text. This has to work for any piece of text and for all numbers up to a trillion.
So I broke the string down into tokens and stored them in a String []. And I divided up the possible numbers in word format into:
LARGEST: thousand, million, billion, trillion
HUNDRED: hundred
TENS: twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, sixty, seventy, eighty, ninety
UNITS: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine
SPECIALS: ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen
I believe that these are the only words that it will need to recognize. I began reading the tokenized string from right to left and then when I came across a unit, special or tens as the first number I hit, I would then set it's numerical value and check if the word before was also a number and whether to add or multiply etc. i.e. First number hit is a two, if the number before is sixty, then I would just add it to sixty and check the word before that and so on.
However, when implementing it, it seems like an extremely long way around it. How I could implement this in a swifter manner? An example of it working would be:
"Nine Million rockets turned Three times and met Twenty Two Aliens", it would extract, Twenty Two as 2, then 20 = 22, then extract Three as 3, and then Nine Million as 1,000,000 x 9 = 9,000,000
9,000,000 + 22 + 3 = 9,000,025

I'm trying to put together a method that formats telelphone numbers, but there's a part of my code that not working. If I enter (305)912-5458 into the variable phoneNumb I get an index is out of range error. I added a lot of system out messages so that I can try to get an idea of why the code was crashing.
public static void main(String[] args) {
int intBegin = 0;
int intEnd = 1;
int length;
String charact;
StringBuilder numbuilder = new StringBuilder();

The error message I'm getting is:

I have to write a program that displays the first 100 pentagonal numbers using different methods. This is what I have so far:
Java Code:
public class FivePointOne{
public static void main(String[]args){
System.out.println("The the pentagonal numbers are: ");
}
//this method will find the penagonal numbers
public static int getPentagonalNumber(int n){
[Code] ....
But when I compile it to test it out I receive the error message "Illegal start of expression," ';' expected, and "reach end of file while parsing".

I got this code with mode methods. The results is not exactly what I want.
Code:
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.*;
public class ProcessMarks {
private static final int NMARKS = 125;
[Code] ...
Result (it's repeat number):
*Mode is = 53
*Mode is = 53
*Mode is = 53
*Mode is = 53
*Mode is = 53
*Mode is = 62
*Mode is = 62
*Mode is = 62
*Mode is = 62
*Mode is = 62
*Mode is = 67
*Mode is = 67
*Mode is = 67
*Mode is = 67
*Mode is = 67
*Mode is = 77
*Mode is = 77
*Mode is = 77
*Mode is = 77
*Mode is = 77
*Mode is = 78
*Mode is = 78
*Mode is = 78
*Mode is = 78
*Mode is = 78
*Mode is = 85
*Mode is = 85
*Mode is = 85
*Mode is = 85
*Mode is = 85
Result that i want it to be (number appear only once):
*Mode = 53, 62, 67, 77, 78, 85
or
*Mode is = 53
*Mode is = 62
*Mode is = 67
*Mode is = 77
*Mode is = 78
*Mode is = 85

(Check substrings) You can check whether a string is a substring of another string by using the indexOf method in the String class. Write your own method for this function. Write a program that prompts the user to enter two strings, and checks whether the first string is a substring of the second.
What the function should return
public class Ex2 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Input the first string:");
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
String firstString = input.nextLine();
System.out.println("Input the second string:");
String secondString = input.nextLine();
check(firstString,secondString);

Why isn't it working?
Java Code:
if ((line.substring(i,i+2)) == "go")
break; mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
I printed this to check if substring works fine, used this:
Java Code: System.out.println(line.substring(i,i+2) + " : "+ length); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
So, output:
Er : 1
ra : 2
ag : 3
go : 4
on : 5
n' : 6
'> : 7
Line:
String line = "Eragon'>";
Shouldn't it break loop after printing "go : 4"?
line.substring(i,i+2) prints go here. But if doesn't work.

Why does the substring method subtract an extra 1?
For example:
myString = "Programming and Problem Solving";
myString.substring(0, 7) would be "Program" instead of "Program".
It's not explained in the book I'm reading and didn't see it online.

I am trying for a logic that i have some emp ids as a string seperated by commas and i need the substring of emp ids as below. splitting the string as below.
public static void main(String args[]) {
String empId = "1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10";
int i;
int count = 9;
for (i = 0; i <= count; i = i + 3) {
System.out.println("Emp IDs are : " +empId);
}}
Result is:
Emp IDs are : 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Emp IDs are : 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Emp IDs are : 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Emp IDs are : 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
But I want the result like:
Emp IDs are : 1,2,3
Emp IDs are : 4,5,6
Emp IDs are : 7,8,9
Emp IDs are : 10

I'm still working with the singlylinkedlist data structure and trying to return a string of individual characters stored in each node. ( head--('J')---('A')---('V')---('A')---tail ) Hopefully this beautifully executed depiction to the left will clarify.
This is what I came up with after designing the algorithm w/ pen and paper. I know that I'm not accounting for the OutOfBound errors, an empty list, or an index < 0.... I will get to that.
Right now, I'm not sure why my assignment to the character array, ' chars[i] = cursor.getLink(getElement()); ' , is not working. The two methods getLink and getElement, type Node and T, respectively, exist in my Node class which is a private nested class in MySLList. Why would I be getting the following error: "The method getElement() is undefined for the type StringX" ? Is this a good design and implementation of the substring method?
public String substring(int index) {
char[] chars = new char[(getSize() - index)]; //getSize() defines the size of list in MySLList
Node cursor = null;
//Set the cursor to the node = index
if(cursor == head) {

I've just written a program that generates 100 numbers that range from 0 ~ 25 using arrays, the program calls another method that sorts the even numbers into a separate array and returns the array. I need it to display both arrays, however, when I run my program, the numbers of both arrays are mixed together, and I'm not sure how to separate them.
[ public class Array1
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
int array [ ] = new int[100];
for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++)
{
array[i] = (int) (Math.random() * 26);

I'm trying to make a program that generates 20 random integers between 1 and 20 and then prints the list of random numbers to the screen. After that, I want to print a different list to screen with the same numbers from the first list only skipping any number that has been already printed to the screen. So two lists are printed to the screen. The first one has 20 random numbers. The second one has those same 20 numbers but only prints the numbers in the first list that aren't duplicated. So if m
y list of 20 random integers contains three 2s and two 14s, only one 14 and one 2 is printed to the second list. Currently, my code generates 20 numbers from 1 to 20 and stores those numbers in an array but I don't know how to print solve the second part of my problem. I don't know how to print the s different list only without duplicate numbers. As a result, my output is nothing because it doesn't print any number from the first list as oppose to skipping only duplicate one.
public void randomNum(){
System.out.println("Twenty random integers: ");
int max = 20; // max value for range
int min = 1; // min value for range
Random rand = new Random();
int[] all = new int[20];

Create an integer array with 10 numbers, initialize the array to make sure there are both positive and negative integers. Write a program to generate two arrays out of the original array, one array with all positive numbers and another one with all negative numbers. Print out the number of elements and the detailed elements in each array.
public class problem3 {
public static void main(String[]args){
int[] numbers = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5};
for (int i = 0; i<numbers.length;){
if(i>0){
System.out.println(numbers);
}
else
System.out.println(numbers);
}

why the default date format that the textbox accepts is in 'mm/dd/yyyy'.For example if i entered "13-05-2014" then it would return an error stating date is invalid.If i entered "12-05-2014" then it would return "5 Dec, 2014".I did not declare any dateformat anywhere except for the datepickers which as shown above, is 'd MMM, yyyy'.Before this happened i trialed and error many different kind of codes to try to validate the date however it all didnt work and so i reverted it all back to the original codes.Last time the dateformat that the textbox accepted was 'dd/mm/yyyy' and it worked fine with my javascript function except the validation part.
Now it still works except that the dateformat changed to 'mm/dd/yyyy'.I did try to use console.log to find out what's wrong but there were no error messages.Why has the dateformat changed by itself?

2. Next I will convert the timezone to EST.
SimpleDateFormat timeZoneConvert = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z");
timeZoneConvert.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone(" EST"));
String l_MailDateEST = timeZoneConvert.format(messageDate.trim());
Once the code run I encounter the said error.
