I'm just putting together a little 'horse racing' program while I'm learning Java, and I have a class called Race that creates an array list of thorougbred horses called field, and asks the user to enter then names of the each horse in the field, with a maximum of 14 horses. The problem occurs with the current code that I have:
import java.util.*;
public class Race {
RaceHelper helper = new RaceHelper();
ArrayList<thoroughbred> field = new ArrayList<thoroughbred>();
public void setField() { //enter the horses in the race and determine the size of the field
[code]....
the statement of the index position and current size was for me, so I could see what was going on.What I don't understand is the while loop. not that the class doesn't compile and run (you can see that it does), it's the output. Why does the <= sign allow one more entry and increase the size of the field to 15?
Less than or equal to 14 should give a maximum field size of 14, right, With the starting object at index position at zero and going up to 13, for a total size of 14 thoroughbred objects if I just use while (field.size()<14) or a for loop, then the output is fine; it allows a max of 14 entries and prints the results. I thought it had something to do with the size being zero based, but that doesn't seem to matter -- unless it does matter and I'm missing it. why the comparison I'm using produces this output? a field of 14 horses shouldn't matter whether it's zero or 1 based, as long as the size of the field is 14, so why the extra entry with this while condition?
Design a class named Person and its two subclasses named Student and Employee. Make Faculty and Staff subclasses of Employee. There is also a MyDate class as explained below. A person has a name, address, phone number, and email address. A student has a status (freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior). Define the status as an integer which can have the value 0 (for "Freshman"),
1 (for "Sophomore"), 2 (for "Junior"), and 3 (for "Senior"),
but don't allow the status to be set to any other values. An employee has an office, salary, and dateHired. The dateHired is a MyDate field, which contains the fields: year, month, and day. The MyDate class does not explicitly inherit from any class, and it should have a no-arg constructor that sets the year, month, and day to the current year, month, and day. The MyDate class should also have a three-argument constructor that gets three int arguments for the year, month and day to set the year, month and day.
A faculty member has office hours and a rank. Define the rank as a String (for values like "Professor" or "Instructor"). A staff member has a title, which is also a String. Use data types for the fields as specified, or where one is not specified, use a data type that is appropriate for the particular field. Write a test program called TestEveryone.java that creates a Person, Student, Employee, Faculty, and Staff object, and invoke their toString() method (you don't need to call the objects' toString() method explicitly).
Note: Your MyDate.java class is the object class that your dateHired field is created from in the Employee.java class.
Do not use the Person, Employee or Faculty classes defined on pages 383 and 384 of the book. Create new ones.Here is the code I have so far concerning the employee and MyDate.
public class Employee extends Person { private String office; private double salary; //private MyDate dateHired; //7 argument constructor for employee public Employee(String name, String phoneNumber, String email, String address, String office, double salary /*MyDate dateHired*/) { super(name, phoneNumber, email, address);
I have this ListInterface class that has operations for my linked list and a LList class. The Llist and ListInterface classes are perfect. My job is to create a driver, or a demo class that showcases these operations. That being said, heres the driver so far:
import java.util.*; public abstract class DriverWilson implements ListInterface { public static void main(String[] args) {
I will implement a page where I have a List<String> account, then it will populate inputText and its value corresponding of the size of the List.
For example, I have 10 values in List<String> account, it must populate 10 inputText with value on it and an empty inputText beside it (for the user to input some values on it).
I am taking the Class Algorithms and Datastructures and got an assignment for Lab that really throws me off. The goal is to create an Array out of a given CSV file, implement several Methods that get the size of array, etc.
I am still stuck in the first part where the CSV has to be imported into the Array. My problem is that I need a mechanism that figures out the needed size for the Array, creates the array, and only then transfers the data from the CSV.
The list consists of the following wifi related values:
MAC-Adress, SSID, Timestamp, Signalstrength.
These are on the list, separated by comma. The Columns are each of these, and the rows are the four types of values making up the information on a certain wifi network.
The catch is, we are not allowed to use any of the following:
java.util.ArrayList java.util.Arrays and any class out of java.util.Collection.
So far I used the BufferedReader to read in the file and tried to implement the array, but I get an arrayindexoutofboundsexception.
Below is my Code (Its still an active construction zone):
public class WhatsThere { public WhatsThere(String wifiscan) throws IOException { } public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { // WhatsThere Liste = new WhatsThere(String wifiscan); String[][] arrayListe = new String[0][0];
we have an Arraylist<Tweet>, and this class is defined as followe: public class Tweet implements Comparable<Tweet>, Serializable. now if we implement the method comparteTo, then will it be sorted automatically? I want to sort this array by any insert.
**NO ARRAYLIST IS ALLOWED!** And the textfile is passed into the method. How to get the size for the array non-randomly inside the method from the passed Scanner file?? What if you have lots of numbers of lines, so how could that be done?
I have doubts about this line Exam[] object = new Exam[12];
How does the keyword this in the CoffeeSize class refer to the size of the coffee ? I am also confused as to how the CoffeeSize constructor comes into play to determine the cost.
public class Test { public static void orderCoffee(CoffeeSize size) { size.print(); } public static void main(String[] args) { orderCoffee(CoffeeSize.SMALL); }
The array size is fixed improve it to automatically increase the array size by creating a new larger array and copying the contents of the current array into it .I am using a course class and here is the code for the class
public class Course { private String courseName; private int numberOfStudents; private String[] students = new String[100]; public Course(String courseName)
[Code] ....
As you can see I have the array set to size 100, how do i make so it increments each time the user adds a student.
I come to the point: I just started to learn java through various manuals and in one of them I came across a declaration of an array that I do not understand:
int[][] multiArr = new int[2][];
the manual says that you can allocate the multidimensional array multiArr by defining size in only the first square bracket but I can't undestand how you can use this array. Seems to be no way to store data with it!
I'm working on an assignment that says the following.
" The array size is fixed in Listing 10.6. Improve it to automatically increase the array size by creating a new larger array and copying the contents of the current array to it.Implement the dropStudent method.Add a new method named clear() that removes all students from the course.
Write a test program that creates a course, adds three students, removes one, and displays the students in the course."
10.6 Listing
public class Course { private String courseName; private String[] students = new String[100]; private int numberOfStudents; } public Course(String courseName) { this.courseName= courseName;
[Code]...
My Test Code based off of book
public static void main(String[] args) { Course course1= new Course("Business"); course1.addStudent("Jay"); course1.addStudent("Silent Bob"); course1.addStudent("Dante"); course1.dropStudent("Jay");
[Code]....
My adjusted 10.6
public class Course { private String courseName; private String[] students = new String[100]; private int numberOfStudents; } public Course(String courseName) { this.courseName= courseName;
[Code]...
The problem I'm having is, for the first part of the question where I need to automatically increase the array size. I'm really not great at this stuff. I have tried breaking it down, but can't "get it", I guess.
I assume, it'd be a loop that checks to see if the student array is full and if so, do the increaseArray() part, by maybe multiplying the student array and then assigning it. I just don't know how to do it haha.
My *best* attempt at the loop so far has been
if (students == students.length){ int bigArray = 2*students.length; String increaseArray()= new String[students]; System.arraycopy(students, 0, increaseArray, 0, students.length); students= increaseArray;
I am having trouble with an assignment. I need the user to input the size of the array and print when asked. In my program, it prints 100 numbers instead of the user input number, such as 15.
import java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Scanner; import java.util.Random; public class Lab9 { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); int [] values = new int [100];
I am trying to make a code that copies the users String to a char array. However, I am in a predicament: since I would not know the exact size of the users String I am left with the options of either making my array large by default, filled in with, lets say 25, empty spaces per index OR starting out with a default size of 1, with an empty space, and then some how increase the size from there.
At this moment I am leaning on the first option, creating a large default array and then deleting the unused values. However, this brings me to my actual question: if I set the non used indexes to null, if that wont give me an error, would that change the size of my array?
Ex: //lets say i finally copied all of the values and this is the result char[] word = {'b', 'o', 'b', ' ', ' '}; for(int i = word.length(); i > 0; i--){ if(word[i] == ' ')//delete the value so the size decreases word[i] = null;//if possible }
protected void randomise() { int[] copy = new int[]; // used to indicate if elements have been used boolean[] used = new boolean[array().length]; Arrays.fill(used,false); for (int index = 0; index < array().length {
I'm working on a program to create a blackjack game using objects (one for card, deck. and hand). Withing my hand object I am trying to add cards to the hand but it is only adding the last card i try to add and giving null values for the the ones before.
class BlackJackHand { private BlackJackCard [] hand; public void addToHand(BlackJackCard c) { if (hand == null) { BlackJackCard [] tempHand = new BlackJackCard[1]; tempHand[0] = c; hand = tempHand;
[Code] ....
What I want this section to do is add cards to the current hand. I was intending for it the hand to be null at first and the if(hand == null) piece to add the card the first time and then the else piece would be used when the hand already has at leas one card. I want the else section to create a temporary array that is one larger than my current hand, copy the cards from the old hand to the new hand, and then add a new card to the last space before rewriting the old hand as what the temporary hand is.
The code I am using to test if the addToHand() is working is
class BlackJackTest { public static void main (String[]args) { BlackJackCard c1= new BlackJackCard(1,0); BlackJackCard c2= new BlackJackCard(1,4); BlackJackCard c3= new BlackJackCard(1,5); BlackJackHand h1 = new BlackJackHand();
[Code] .....
BlackJackCard has the parameters (int suit, int value)
This should print: ace of clubs 4 of clubs 5 of clubs
Write a program to create an integer array of size 20. Then, the program should generate and insert random integers between 1 and 5, inclusive into the array. Next, the program should print the array as output.
A tremor is defined as a point of movement to and fro. To simulate it, the program will generate a random number between 0 and 19, which represents the location in the array (i.e. index number). Then, the 3 numbers to the left and right of this location should be reset to the value 0. If there isn't 3 numbers to the left and right you may assume a lesser number depending on the boundaries of the array.
Then, the final array should be printed as output. There is no user input for this program.Your program must include, at least, the following methods:
-insertNumbers, which will take as input one integer array and store the random numbers in it. -createTremor, which will generate the random number as the location and return it.
I am trying to print a loop inside an array of a greater size than the loop itself. Like for example I have an array of size 7 but it has only 3 elements.
now what I want to do is print these three numbers in a loop so that my array[3]=2;array[4]=3;array[5]=4 ...... till the last one. Also the array could be any size and not just 7.
I am trying to create an array list without using the built in arrayList class that java has. I need to start the array being empty with a length of 5. I then add objects to the array. I want to check if the array is full and if not add a value to the next empty space. Once the array is full I then need to create a second array that starts empty and with the length of the first array + 1.
The contents of the first array are then copied into the new array without using the built in copy classes java has and then the new array ends up containing 5 elements and one null space the first time round. The first array is then overwritten with the new array containing the 5 elements and the null space. The process then starts again adding values until the array is full which will be 1 more value then recreating the second array empty and the length of the first array + 1. This is my attempt at creating this but I have run into multiple problems where I get only the last value I added and the rest of the values are null:
public class MyArrayList { public Object arrayList[]; public MyArrayList(Object[] arrayList) { this.arrayList = arrayList;
I have a quick polymorphism question. I have a parent class and a sub class that extends the parent class. I then declare an array of parent class but instantiate an index to the sub class using polymorphism. Do I have to have all the same methods in the child class that I do in the parent class? Here is an example of what I mean.
public class ParentClass { public ParentClass(....){ } public String doSomething(){ } } public class ChildClass extends ParentClass { public ChildClass(....)
[Code] ....
Is polymorphism similar to interfaces where the child class needs all the same methods?
I have a list of uninstanciated class types and I wanted to call a static function from these "Class<? extends PropControl>" (without using reflection) that would create a new corresponding object instance but it appears I cant do that in java so now I want to create a factory that takes a class type as aparameter to create the corresponding object instance but this code dont compile:
Java Code:
public PropControl Create(Class<? extends PropControl> cls) { if(cls==HouseControl.class) <---- ERROR { here I create a new instance of HouseControl (that inherits PropControl) } } mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
I get this error :
incomparable types: Class<CAP#1> and Class<HouseControl>
where CAP#1 is a fresh type-variable:
CAP#1 extends PropControl from capture of ? extends PropControl
I have to write a test class for a Contacts class called ContactTest and store the instances of Contacts created into a LinkedList.The ContactTest class should implement the addition andremoval of contacts to the Linked List and display its contents.
So far I have this, which stores the information entered into a Linked List, the problem is I don't know how I go about doing the addition and removal part.
Contacts Class
public class Contacts implements InterfaceContacts { String fname; String lname; String phone; String email; //constructors public Contacts( ){ this("****", "****", "****", "****");
