Creates Array Of 3 Consecutive Ints (0 - 7) User Has To Guess What Those Numbers Are
Aug 16, 2014
I have the following program. In a nutshell, I creates an array of 3 consecutive ints and the user has to guess what those numbers are, knowing that they are between 0 and 7, this is from Head First Java. In the book, the code has a bug that is made on purpose and they challenge you to fix it. As you can see bellow, every time a user's guess matches a int in the array, the NumOfHits is increased by one. When the NumOfHits is 3 (the length of the array) the game finishes.
The bug is that if you guess 1 and 1 is in the array, if you type in 1, 3 times, I will increase the NumOfHits 3 times and end the game as if you had won. To solve the bug, you need to find a way to tell the program that if the user already guessed that number, it should no longer be taken into account and we shouldn't increase the NumOfHits if the same number is provided.
I "fixed" this by searching for the index of the number that matches an int of the array, and changing that index's value to 100, since the user knows that the numbers are between 0 and 7, they will not submit 100.
The result? If the user submits 2 and 2 is in the array, the value of its indexed is replaced by 100, so that if the user submits 2 again it doesn't count as a match.
Please see the comments in the code
import java.io.*;
import java.util.Arrays;
class DotCom{
int NumOfHits = 0;
int[] LocationCells;
public void setLocationCells(int[] locs){
LocationCells = locs;
[Code] .....
The code works, but for some reason, some times I get a ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException run time error and it appears to be somehow random. This is what I saw on the command line earlier
C:Userspablo.alvarez>java launchDotCom
Enter a number: 3
missed
Enter a number: 4
hit
Enter a number: 5
hit
Enter a number: 7
missed
Enter a number: 5
missed
Enter a number: 4
missed
Enter a number: 3
missed
Enter a number: 4
missed
Enter a number: 5
missed
Enter a number: 6
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: -1
at DotCom.checkYourSelf(launchDotCom.java:16)
at DotComGame.startGame(launchDotCom.java:59)
at launchDotCom.main(launchDotCom.java:72)
As you can see here, 3 returned 'missed' but 4 and 5 returned hit. Since the numbers are in sequence and are only 3, it makes sense that the last number is 6 (4,5,6). You will then notice that when I submitted 3 and 4 again it returned 'missed' as expected, because the numbers were already matched earlier, but then when I submitted 6, it returned the error seen above.
Sometimes this doesn't happen at all, sometimes it happens at the 2nd guess or third, it appears to be somehow random. I'm familiar with the error message, but I don't see where I'm using an index that doesn't exist in the array. The only time I'm referencing an array index is on
LocationCells[index] = 100;
but the index variable will only hold a value if the int submitted by the user matches on of the values in one of the indexes, so how is it that I'm going over the number of available indexes?

im trying to do a program to find if numbers are consecutive or not! if they are consecutive i need a true as a return and a false when they are not... i did this program and im sure i did something wrong because i keep only true returns ..
Example: (3,5,7) (1,2,2) (7,7,9) should return a false!
Java Code: import java.util.*;
public class Consecutive{
public static void main (String [] args){
Scanner console= new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter three numbers");
String numbers = console.nextLine();
System.out.println( "The numbers (" + numbers + ") is '" + consecutive( numbers ) + "'" );
}//end of main

I wanted to know if I was off to the right start. I am trying to write a program using the for loop the calculate the product of the consecutive numbers 4 through 8 but so for I am getting 3 values output and I only want 1 value at the print out.
The code I am using outputs the numbers too large. I am trying to see where I went wrong.
for ( int i = 4 ; i <= 8; i++)
{
int j = i++;
int k = j++;
int l = k++;
int m = l++;
System.out.println( + (i*j*k*l*m) );

I need to find if the number entered by the user are consecutive or not!
Ex:this should return a true!! This should return false!
(1,2,3) (3,5,7)
(3,2,4) (1,2,2)
(-10,-8,-9) (7,7,9)
My program seems to work ok when i enter number in order like 1,2,3 = true , and all the numbers for false seem to be working as well! my problem is when i enter number like 3,2,4 that are not in order but still are consecutive!! I thought that another if statement would be the solution but i have tray several different ones and still can't make it work !!!
Java Code:
import java.util.*;
public class Consecutive{
public static void main (String [] args){
Scanner console= new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter three numbers");
String numbers = console.nextLine();

How do I make it so that if both numbers are entered between 10 and 20 it will print false?
The assignment: Ask the user to enter 2 ints. Output "true" if one of them is in the range 10 - 20 inclusive, but not both. Otherwise output "false"
12 99 → true
21 20 → true
8 99 → false
15 17 → false
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Practice {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//get user input
Scanner user_input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Enter a number: " );

I am creating a hangman code. So the game i am creating is 2 player, first player enters the word and second player guesses. i made the code but i don't know how to restrict the first player from adding random characters into the secret word because for my project the word can only contain letters. so i need making the code so the player 1 can only enter letters.
My code is below:
/**
* Auto Generated Java Class.
*/
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Hangman {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input= new Scanner(System.in);
String player1,player2;
int wrongguessamount = 0; //keeps the count of the amount of wrong guesses
int correctguessamount = 0; //keeps count of the amount of correct guesses
int maxincorrect=6;//makes sure the user cant guess more than 6 times

The problem occurs after the user inputs the guess.... it either runs the for loop if guess = numtoguess and reveals the answer even if the user input is wrong.... or it always runs the first if statement in the while loop if guess!= to numtoguess... heres the code
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] Answers = {"yes", "Yes", "No", "no"};
String Name = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Hello, What is your name?","Random Game", JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE);
String UI = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, Name + " do you want to play a game", "Random Game", JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE);

if I want to add a number of X consecutive values in an array and get the minimal total value along with the indexes that caused this result, how can I do that? for example:
X = 2
array[4] = (5,2,8,6,7)
start adding every 2 consecutive values as following:
array[0]+array[1] = 5+2 = 7 //minimal value
array[1]+array[2] = 2+8=10
array[2]+array[3] = 8+6= 14
array[3]+array[4] = 6+7=13
output:
minimal value = 7
indexes of minimal values are: 0 and 1

I just learned about 2D arrays and am still trying to get a grasp on the concepts. I'm a little confused by how you return all the values in a row to add up and display the sum if the row is entered by the user.
import java.util.*;
public class RowSum {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner s = new Scanner (System.in);
int userpick = 0;
int sum = 0;

I am trying to write a code that asks the user to input ten numbers and then finds and displays the smallest number out of the ones given. I am supposed to implement arrays into the program to do this. But the problem I have run into is that when I compile the code in jgrasp, I am given several error messages and I am not quite sure what I have done wrong. I'm assuming it is either a syntax or a logical error on my part but reading over the code I do not understand what is causing these errors.
This is the most current draft of my code:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Exercise7_9 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
double[] numbers = new double[10];
//Enter ten double numbers: Scanner(System.in)
java.util.Scanner input = new java.util.Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please enter ten numbers: ");
[Code] ....
/* Sample Run:
Enter ten numbers: 1.9, 2.5, 3.7, 2, 1.5, 6, 3, 4, 5, 2
*/
And these are the exact error messages:
----jGRASP exec: javac -g Exercise7_9.java
Exercise7_9.java:35: error: '.class' expected
if (double m > list[i]) {
^
Exercise7_9.java:35: error: illegal start of expression
if (double m > list[i]) {

Working on a program that creates an array from a file, organizes it in various ways, and then prints the results. Right now I'm specifically having trouble with the printAry() method - when I try to run it, I receive a NullPointerException for the active line in printAry() (EDIT: line 102). Not sure which sections are important to this, so I will include the client class and most of the service. I realize that the amount of documentation I included is not necessary, but it is required for the class.
class Lab3StudentAryService
{
private int count;
private Lab3StudentData [] studentAry = new Lab3StudentData[50];
/*
@param: none
@return: none
reads file and converts to array.

Write a Java program that asks the user to store 10 numbers in an array. You should then print the array in the order entered and then print in reverse order. However, instead of putting all the information in the main, you should use a class called PrintIt. The PrintIt class should have an instance variable that is an array to hold the numbers. You should have a method that will print the array in the order entered. You will also need a method to print in reverse oder. Then create a tester class that asks the user to enter 10 numbers and puts them in an array.
So far I've got this.
public class printIt {
int i;
int [] numArr = new int [10];
public printIt () {
i = -1;
[Code] .....
Output:
Enter a number:
8
34
Forward:
8
34
Reverse:
34
8
end
what i want as an number is being able to print out 10 numbers but this only lets me do two numbers. Why is that so?

The main Method
-Create a main method declares and creates an integer array called nums that can hold 15 integers.
-Use a for loop to fill that array with multiples of 3: 0, 3, 6, 9, etc.
-Then use similar for loop to print each value in the array on one line, with each value separated by a single space.
-Compile and run the program to see the result:0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 39 42
As you write other methods, you'll also modify the main method to make calls to them. The printArray MethodWrite a method called printArray that accepts an integer array as a parameter. This method does not return a value, and must be declared as static so that the main method can call it. Instead of printing the array in the main method, move that loop into this method. Call the printArray method from the main method. Compile and run the program to verify it prints the sam result as before.Add a println statement so that after printing the array values on one line, it then moves to the following line.Finally, modify the loop in the printArray method so that, instead of using a traditional for loop, it instead uses a for-each loop. Compile and run the program again.
Part III: More Array Methods
The linearSearch Method In lecture we looked at a method that performed a binary search on a sorted array. A much simpler (though much less efficient) search is a linear search, that simply starts at the front of the array and looks at each element in turn until it finds it or reaches the end.Create a method called linearSearch that accepts an integer array and a single int value as parameters. The goal of the method is to find the second parameter (the target) in the array. The method should return a single int representing the index of the target value. This method should not print any output itself. In this method, use a traditional for loop to scan through the elements in the array. As soon as you find the target value, return the index of that value.
If you scan through the entire array without finding the target value, return a -1.Modify the main method to call the linearSearch method and print the results. Call it twice, searching for the value 18 (which it should find) and the value 10 (which it should not). Including the previous activity, the output of the main method should now look similar to this:0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 39 42
The index of 18 is 6
The index of 10 is -1
The sumArray Method
The sumArray method should take an integer array as a parameter and return a single integer representing the sum of all values in that array.Use a for-each loop to access each value in the array and compute a running sum. After the loop, return the total.Call the method from the main method, producing the following augmented output:0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 39 42
The index of 18 is 6
The index of 10 is -1
The sum of this array is 315
The addValue Method...The addValue method should accept an integer array and a single int as parameters. The purpose of the method is to add the second parameter to EACH value in the array. The addValue method does not return a value, but the elements inside the array will be modified. Call the addValue method from the main method, adding 100 to each element in the array. Then call the printArray method again to see the modified array values:0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 33 36 39 42
The index of 18 is 6
The index of 10 is -1
The sum of this array is 315 100 103 106 109 112 115 118 121 124 127 130 133 136 139 142
Test a Different Array..Finally, duplicate the content of the main method to perform similar tests on another array. Instead of filling it with multiples of 3, fill it with multiples of 4. And instead of using an array size of 15, use an array size of 20.Modify the values search for to include one that is in the array and one that isn't.Rerun the main method and carefully check the results.If you haven't been doing it all along (which you should), make sure the appropriate class and method documentation is included.When you're satisfied that all methods are working correctly, modify the main method to delete the second array tests.

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);

Random random = new Random();
[Code] ....
If you look at the code, I set "playerOne" and "playerTwo", to set them as what was passed in from another class..
In the Animal constructor.
in that constructor the value is 2. But when I use it in the "Bash()" method it is 0 in the console.
Why doesnt the playerOne and playerTwo stay the value it is assigned in the constructor.??

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)
