Calculations Within A Set Method
Feb 13, 2015
I am almost done with the assignment, but I am having an issue with this step: "Create a field to hold the gallery commission. This field cannot be set from outside the class. it is computed as 20% of the price, and should be set whenever the price is set. Put the code to calculate and set the commission in the setPrice() method"
import java.util.Scanner;
public class PaintingHarness
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
// put code here
// Created object so we can take input from the Scanner
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
Painting myPainting = new Painting();

I've created a method to calculate the ratio of one vowel to another, but I was hoping to get some feedback on another way I could approach the problem. The first bit of code is to find the vowels and assign them to an array ( for me, it seemed the easier thing to do in order to easily access the data). In the other bit of code, I have a method with two arguments (the vowels) to calculate the ratio.
public void findVowels(StringBuilder message, String delimiter) {
subString = message.toString().toLowerCase().split(delimiter);
vowelCounter = new int[5][subString.length];
// Remove all whitespace
for (int index = 0; index < subString.length; index++) {
subString[index] = subString[index].replaceAll("s", "");

A complex number is defined as z=a+i*b, where a is the real part, and b is the imaginary part. In other words, in order to define a complex number, we need the two floating numbers a and b. Write methods that perform for each of the following operations with complex numbers z1 = a1 + i*b1, and z2 = a2 + i*b2:
Addition: z1 + z2=(a1+a2) + i*(b1+b2)
Subtraction: z1 - z2=(a1-a2) + i*(b1-b2)
Multiplication: z1*z2 = (a1*a2 - b1*b2) + i*(a1*b2 + b1*a2)
Division: z1/z2 = (a1*a2 +b1*b2)/(a2^2 + b2^2) + i*(b1*a2 - a1*b2)/(a2^2 + b2^2)
Create a test program that asks for the real and imaginary parts of two complex numbers from the user, and displays the results of the four operations, writing the formula as shown above, and replacing the a1, a2, b1 and b2 with the numbers entered by the user.The professor used the incorrect complex number equations and has notified the students of his error. I have run into a few problems thus far.
1. I'm not sure how to use floating numbers with the Math.pow(double, double) function, since its requires doubles!? So instead of using floating numbers, I've knowingly switched them all to double in order to see if the code itself is working properly for the purposes of this forum. Is there a way that I can modify this function so that it will work for floating numbers?
2. Regarding the division method, an error stating that c and d have not been initialized and I'm not sure how to change it because the other calculation methods work fine. Why do I need to initialize c and d in the division method and not the others?
3. Am I on the right path? I have surfed the web to see how others completed the program and they all appear very different than mine...
package program5;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Program5 {
static double a, b, c, d;
static double i = Math.pow(-1,1/2);

I have made a simple form, it consists of 3 text box's textbox1, textbox2 and textbox3 as well as 1 button button1. What I want to be able to do is put numbers into textbox 1 and 2 and then show the multiplication of these numbers in textbox 3 when the button is pressed and I was wondering what is the standard way of reading these numbers from the text box and allowing us to do the conversion obviously in the textbox its a string and we need to convert to an int or double or whatever to be able to perform calculations on them then convert it back into a string to display in text box 3?

I have some data files that take this form:
D14
J3
N1
a26
[code]...
I also have this code that takes the file, goes through each line using a loop and counts the total of all the integers on each line, it also then loops and takes each integer on each line and divides it by the total calculated in the previous loop but I don't know what code to manipulate the strings to do these calculations. After these calculations I want to write the updated values to the text file I originally took the data in from. So as an example the total I already for this file to be '232' so the first line would be D 0.06 because 14/232 = 0.06034482758 and rounded to 2 decimal points is 0.06.
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileReader;

I am having problems figuring out how to make calculations using a two dimensional array. The problem is finding the distance of a projectile given the launch velocity and angle. The equation is x = v^2*sin(2theta)/g. I understand how to implement this equation using the toRadians() and Sin() methods. What I don't understand is how to calculate the distance values with a multi dimensional array.
double [][] data = { {20, 15},
{50, 35},
{80, 45},
{100, 65},
{150, 85},
{10, 50},
{110, 8}};
My array has the velocities on the left and angles on the right. I tried using nested loops but I don't know how to access the two pieces of data at a time which I need.

I've created several methods in another class to perform certain matrix calculations. Do I need to have mutator method in this calculation class to define the column length of the matrix object? I understand why the following code is not working, but I was hoping to get a quick and easy workaround. I'm not sure how to initialize the size of the column for newMatrix within the method.
public int [][] sum(int matrixOne[][], int matrixTwo[][]) {
int sumMatrix [][] = new int[matrixOne.length]["WHAT TO PUT HERE"];
for (int i = 0; i < matrixOne.length; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < matrixOne[i].length; j++) {
sumMatrix[i][j] = matrixOne[i][j] + matrixTwo[i][j];
System.out.println("matrixSum" + sumMatrix[i][j]);
}
}
return sumMatrix;
}
Then I will use this method to print the new matrix:
public void printMatrix(int newMatrix [][]) {
for (int i = 0; i < newMatrix.length; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < newMatrix[i].length; j++) {
System.out.print(newMatrix[i][j] + " ");
}
System.out.println("");
}
}
Is all of this overkill and should I just define all the methods within the same class to avoid these issues?

I have to ask the user to enter 4 whole numbers, and then the program will calculate:
> x numbers are positive and even
> x numbers are positive and odd
> x numbers are negative and even
> x numbers are negative and odd
but I have trouble with the conditions. How do I form the conditions to calculate this? My professor said I can do this with only four IFs (or ELSE IF). This is what I did:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Calc{
public static void main(String [] args){
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int pe = 0, po = 0, ne = 0, no = 0;
/* four variables for each result
pe - positive even
po - positive odd
ne - negative even
no - negative odd

I am trying to put together a small application in my spare time. Nothing major, but one thing I want it to do is accept a few inputs, and take those and add them to a table with columns for use later (printing, calculations, etc). I was originally looking at something like Jtable, but that looks just like an excel spreadsheet done Java, so not what I'm looking for.
I'm looking for something that's read-only, where I can insert data from input fields, and then perform calculations with the column data later.

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.

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.

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?

I have to write a method called censor that gets an array of strings from the user as an argument and then returns an array of strings that contains all of the original strings in the same order except those with length of 4. For example if cat, dog, moose, lazy, with was entered, then it would return the exact same thing except for the words with and lazy.
Currently, my code so far just prints [Ljava.lang.String;@38cfdf and im stuck.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class censorProgram {
public static void main (String args[]){
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
System.out.println ("How many words would you like to enter?");
int lineOfText = input.nextInt();
[Code] ....
I have to make new string array in the method and return words without four letters in the main method

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

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.
