Write Java Program That Asks User For List Of Names?

May 21, 2015

I am trying to write a java program that asks the user for a list of names (one per line) until the user enters a blank line. At that point the program should print out the list of names entered, where each name is listed only once (i.e., uniquely) no matter how many times the user entered the name in the program. I am supposed to use an ArrayList for this problem.

My idea for a solution is to create an ArrayList<String>, read each name, i.e., line, entered and then to see if that name is already in the ArrayList. I created a for loop to check each element in the ArrayList but when I try to assign an element to a string variable I get the error "Type mismatch: cannot convert from Object to String". Not sure why that is happening because the ArrayList is defined as a String list.

Here is the code so far.

/*
* File: UniqueNames.java
*/
import acm.program.*;
import java.util.*;

How To Write A Program To Record Names And Dates

Mar 2, 2014

I want an app that I can use to save the name, address, item sold, subject discussed and date that I visited someone - in a job similar to a sales rep. I would like to be able to choose how to sort the info so that if I sort by date I can see who hasn't been visited for the longest and start there. If I think of someone's name then of course I want to sort by name.

One of my friends says he works with "php"[? I'm still learning these terms] and everything happens online. I would like it to be an android app so it can be done without an internet connection ....

How To Append New Entry In A List Of 100,000 Names Without Iterating List Each Time

Apr 22, 2015

I have a list of 100,000 + names and I need to append to that list another 100,000 names. Each name must be unique. Currently I iterate through the entire list to be sure the name does not exist. As you can imagine this is very slow. I am new to Java and I am maintaining a 15+ year old product. Is there a better way to check for an existing name?

I have an assignment where I'm supposed to write a program where the user inputs a month between 1-12 and then the right amount number in every month. I've tweaked the code a bunch of times, but I keep getting this error message:

Scanner scanner = new Scanner (System.in);
System.out.print("Skriv ett manadsnummer: ");

Java Program That Keeps Track Of People Names

Jan 13, 2015

I need to make a program that keeps track of peoples names, allows you to add a note to each name and preferably would reorganize whatever you put in by date or by spelling. (I suppose the phonebook application in cell phones is a good match, a supermarket's list of foods and prices would work as well).

Write A Program That Reads From User Several Lines Of Input

Mar 24, 2014

a. Assume that we have a list of employees' names of a company and their ages. Write a program that reads from the user several lines of input. Each line includes an employee's name and his/her age (as an integer). The program should calculate and print the following:

- The average age of all employees (rounded to 2 decimal places).
- The oldest employee and his/her age.

Hints:

You could assume that the user will insert valid data and at least one employee.
You could assume that the oldest employee is only one person.
User could stop the program via entering the word "end" as an employee's name.

Sample Input and Output: In each line, insert an employee's name and his/her age To halt the program, insert "end" as an employee's name

Adam 30
Tom 41
Ted 45
Karl 30
end

The average age of all employees is 36.50.The oldest employee is Hisham whose age is 45

Program That Asks To Create 2 Arrays

I'm just learning about arrays. I have a small program to write that asks to create 2 arrays. One holding 5 names of flowers. One holding the prices of those 5 flowers. I ask the user what kind of flower they want and the quantity. I then need to create a loop that locates the flower name and uses that index to find the cost of the flower. I am struggling on how to write in code how to use one array index to find another. Example: Roses and $.50.

Write A Program That Prompts User To Enter Two Positive Integers And Prints Their Sum

Jan 9, 2015

Write a program (TwoIntegers.java) that prompts the user to enter two positive integers and prints their sum (by addition), product (by multiplication), difference (by subtraction), quotient (by division), and remainder (by modulation). When the user enters 5 and 3, the output from your program should look exactly like the following:

Enter two positive integers: 5 3
The sum is 8.
The product is 15.
The difference is 2.
The quotient is 1.
The remainder is 2.

import java.util.Scanner;
public class TwoIntegers {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Enter two positive integers: ");
Scanner userInput = new Scanner("System.in");
int integer1 = userInput.nextInt();

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

Randomizing Names From A List?

Feb 2, 2014

I'm trying to use the DataFactory class to pull in a list of names, as I need to populate my app in development with randomized test data for testing.

DataFactory

So, I can get a random name like so:-

package domainentities;
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.Collections;
import org.fluttercode.datafactory.AddressDataValues;

[Code] .....

But - it always prints 'Lindsey'. I need a way of completely randomizing but I can't see the class has a method to let me do this? I can use the randomize method but this takes an int argument which will always bring back the same index value (same name).

I wonder if I am over complicating this. I can use a simple String array of names, but I don't want, like 10,000 names in my array and I want a good way of generating good, randomized data. Perhaps a .csv file of names could be read in? Here is a second method I wrote but I don't have the skills to know how to read the array values from my large .csv file:

public String randomSecondName(){
String[] lastNames = {"Smith", "Jones", "Collins","Jackson",
"Dearsley", "Trump", "Carr", "O'Connell", "Dyer", "Furstzwangler" };
Random ran = new Random();
String lastName = lastNames[ran.nextInt(lastNames.length)];
return lastName;
}
