How To Get A Compound Interest Program To Work
Apr 10, 2014
/code
package com.eclipsedistilled.cis125;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class HowellBank {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//Written by George Torgerson
//Chapter 4 Link to Logic 7
//Program that accepts an account number, the account owner's first

This is for college homework. Fictional bank. I would like the year to look like Year 1, Year 2, etc.

I need getting started designing and creating a program that calculates simple and compound interest. Simple interest in this case means that interest is only applied to the original amount. For instance, if a person deposits $1000 at 10% annual interest, then after one year they would have $1100 (the original $1000 plus the $100 interest) and after two years they would have $1200 (the original $1000, plus the $100 earned the first year, plus the $100 earned the second year).
With compound interest, the interest is applied to all money earned. So, starting with $1000 at 10% annual interest, after one year the user would have $1100 (the original amount plus $100 interest) and after two years the user would have $1210 (the $1100 they started with at the beginning of the year plus the $110 interest).
The requirements of this program are:
-Create a class that will hold methods to calculate the interest. Do not include the main method in this class.
-In the class that is used to calculate the interest, include a method to print to the screen, by interest period, the starting amount for the period, the interest earned for the period, and the total amount at the end of the period. Note that each period represents the time frame for how often it is updated. If annual is selected the period is every year. If it is semi-annual it is every six months. If it is quarterly it is every three months.
-Create a demo class that will use your interest calculation class. Prompt the user for the original amount, the type of interest (simple or compound), the annual interest rate, and whether it is updated annually, semi-annually, or quarterly. Use method calls to your calculate interest class to do all calculations and display the result. Loop the program until the user chooses to quit.
Sample output ($10000 initial investment, 10% simple interest, annual, for 4 years):
Period Beginning Amount Interest Earned Ending Amount
1 10000.00 1000.00 11000.00
2 11000.00 1000.00 12000.00
3 12000.00 1000.00 13000.00
4 13000.00 1000.00 14000.00

I am trying to change this code to use only integers to calculate the compound interest.
// Compound-interest calculations with for.
public class Interest {
public static void main( String args[] ) {
double amount; // amount on deposit at end of each year
double principal = 1000.0; // initial amount before interest
double rate = 0.05; // interest rate
[Code] .....
And here is the output I get :
Why do I get the output after year 2? I assume it has something to do with the remainder.
I also have to format this output with the decimal point, etc.. which I think I will be ok with after I get through this part.

I'm making a loan calculator that uses compound interest... I need the program to return the monthly payment, how much of it is principal and how much of it is interest, which depends on how many months into your loan you are... So basically all I need is the algorithm to calculate how much of your monthly payment (depending on how many months in you are) is interest and how much of it is principal.

I just cant seem to understand the order of precedence here.
class Test{
public static void main(String[] args){
int k = 1;
k += (k = 4) * (k + 2);
System.out.println( k );
}
}
From what I have read compound operators have the lowest order of precedence... But the above piece of code makes the assignment k = 1 + (k = 4) * (k + 2) before evaluating the rest of the statement first.
It then evaluates (k = 4) and proceeds with the remained of the statement 1 + 4 * (4 + 6)....
I dont understand why the first k is assigned 1 but the remaining ks 4. Should they not all be 1 or 4 (I would have thought 4, since += has the lost order of precedence so is evaluated last)??

I created the following hangman program, but it only works for one word file inputs. How can I modify the program to make it work for files with a multiple word phrase?
/**This program is a basic Hangman game. It takes a word or phrase from a file, and then asks the user to guess the letters in it. The program ends when the user inputs 8 wrong guesses.

Is there some way to create compound shapes/paths in JavaFX?
For the record I'm not implying the use of the methods intersect, subtract, or union. These produce other shapes. A compound shape/path is one that has a knockout of some sort. For instance, a circle within a circle, such as in a 2d donut shape. Alternatives do not include a circle with a thick stroke nor an overlayed circle with the background color. Specifically, JavaFX supports the FillRule, in the case of the Path object. However, there doesn't appear to be an "add" method as there was in the Area shape in Swing.

i am fairly new to java but have made a few projects so i do know most aspects that would allow me to complete the task its just i have been stuck at the same place now for 2 days.The project is to create a java program that can read specific data within a csv file to work out the averages etc. The csv file is a database of different weather stats . an example of the first 12 months of the csv file is below..
[CSV FILE]
year ,month,average rainfall etc
1946 15.70.616108.131.5
1946 28.23.56111.871
1946 38.82932.9 102.9
1946 414.16.3029.2 150.5
1946 513.96060.7 143.6
[code]...
I know that once the data is indexed i can than use a double to find the average of the 12 specific pieces of data and so on. once this is complete i should than be able to transfer the data to a simple graph.

The problem is as follows: I've been running java script using git bash and at one point it tells me that I need to increase heap size because apparently it takes more than 1gb to run. However although I manually increase it via control panel>programs>java nothing changes. I've been told that I need to ' figure out how to use 64bit java (and a VM that supports 64bit) in order to increase the maximum memory allocation (heap size) to something north of 2g.'
My laptop has 8GB worth of RAM (Windows 7)so it shouldn't technically have problems running anything above 1G. But there is apparently a 1GB wall But increasing the heap size to above 2G results in an error stating that VM doesn't initialize within git bash, I thought that my java is 32 bit so I downloaded a 64 bit java. Now how and if it is even possible to allocate a program to run under 64 bit java and if I should delete the other java version.

how does recursion works, I don't understand why it prints al numbers going up again?This is the code
void print2(int n){
if (n<0){
out.printf(" %d",-1);
return;
}
out.printf(" %d", n);
print2(n-1)
out.printf(" %d", n);
}
this should be the output if n is 6: 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6.

I need to create a chart for work and comes across this sample from mbostock's chord diagram (bl.ocks.org/mbostock/4062006).
I only need to revise the tick label (names, display positions) but I don't know how to do it as I have 0 experience with Java.
My sample data for the var matrix is
[0,100,100,100]
[0,0,99,98]
[0,0,92,84]
[0,99,0,0]
which shows flows between country A, B, C and D.
I would like to revise the tick labels, so that:
1) Instead of showing 0K 5K 10K, I would like to show the country names (A - D), with no number or tick. I figured out this one by just commenting out all the codes relating to ticks.
2) Place the country names in the center of the arch. I don't know how to do this one.

I've got a panel which an arbitrary number of text fields may be added to at run time. I've got it set up so that the window's height, and the height of the panel in which the fields appear will never exceed the height of the screen.What I don't have is a way to make the panel scroll to access the fields that are being visually truncated. I'm setting the autoscrolls on the panel to true, but when I run the program, the fields are simply truncated.
pnlDeclensions.setAutoscrolls(true);

I use Chrome rather than IE. Recently I got an error message when I tried to deposit a check online.
It said that I needed up get a newer version of Java than 6.10, so I downloaded 7u51.
When I tried to deposit the check again, Chrome asked if I wanted to run the app, and I said yes, but that took me back to the download link again.
I spent almost an hour with my bank experts, but they were unable to solve the problem.
When we tried it on Internet Explorer, it worked fine.
Later, I discovered that on the Java Control Panel under the Default Browser for Java, it has only IE and Mozilla, with the IE being checked and greyed out.
I'm assuming that's why the problems on Chrome, even though up until a few days ago, I was able to deposit checks using Chrome-Java.

All I am trying to do is to make a section of code execute if two strings are equal. The two strings are userId and "A001062". When I use the debugger in Eclipse, I can see the value of userId as "A001062" but whatever string comparison I try never evaluates to true. I have tried
userId=="A001602"
userId.equals("A001602")
"A001602.equals(userId)
Assigning A001062 to a string called AAA and comparing userId to AAA
My code is as follows. I have also attached a screen shot from the Eclipse Debugger which makes me think the string comparison should succeed. I never see the debugger execute the print line nor do I see the print line on the JBOSS console.
String userId = StringUtils.trim(nextLine[HR_USER_ID]);
String AAA="A001062";
if (userId.intern().equals(AAA.intern())) {System.out.print("MKP1: " + userId+"-"+managerId);}
if (userId.compareTo("DTS0428")==0) {System.out.print("MKP2: " + userId+"-"+managerId);}

I have a code issue and I have a below question for the same.Assuming data[] is of type byte[], is the below statement in java -
while((data[p++] & 0x80) == 0x80);
same as -
while ( (data[p] & 0x80) == 0x80 ) { p++; }
I tried with do { p++; } while ( (data[p] & 0x80) == 0x80 ); That also doesn't seem to be the same thing. I am not putting code around this but essentially if I make this change for not using data[p++] code stops working!

I have a simple applet that doesn't stray outside the sandbox. It used to work fine before Java 7 but now it craps out with security warnings. It does nothing but play a game, it doesn't even save the state of the game. This is the applet, it's a very simple chess program.
The warnings and popups I'm getting are:
activate javaTM platform SE 7U?allow now?activation blocked by security settings - I never changed any security settings and as I said, this applet stays firmly in the sandbox so I can't see what the issue is.Viewing the java error window I see
Java Plug-in 10.51.2.13
Using JRE version 1.7.0_51-b13 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
User home directory = C:UsersMike
----------------------------------------------------
c: clear console window
f: finalize objects on finalization queue
g: garbage collect
h: display this help message
l: dump classloader list
m: print memory usage
o: trigger logging
[code]....
why it shows the C:UsersMike directory in the above listing, there is no access to files etc.The applet plays fine if I run it in appletviewer.What do I need to do to make this simply work in anyone's browser? I have a similar problem with a (rather funky) Connect 4 program I wrote. It worked fine for years and then just stopped with the Java 7.
