Subtracting A Negative Fraction?

Mar 10, 2014

For some reason, I'm getting the correct result, but my negative sign is having issues. For example, if I do 1/4 - (-2/4), I get (-3/4).

Here is my minus method for subtracting fractions.

/**
Subtracts a fraction from another fraction.
@param toUse, the fraction to subtract.
@return minusFraction, the result after subtraction.
*/
public Fraction minus(Fraction toUse)

[Code] .....

Here is my reduce() method, just in case...

/**
Reduces the fraction, if possible, to it's simplest form.
Converts negative fractions to the form -x/y, or if -x/-y --> x/y
*/
private void reduce() {
int lowest = Math.abs(numerator);
int highest = Math.abs(denominator);

[code]...

I only switched an operator from my previous addition method, given here as well. I think only switching the + to a - may have caused my issue.

/**
Adds two fractions together.
@param toUse, the fraction to be added.
@return plusFraction, the sum of the two fractions.
*/
public Fraction plus(Fraction toUse) {

[Code] .....

Adding And Subtracting Positive Or Negative Two Numbers Of Any Length With Strings?

Feb 3, 2014

You are to design a Java application to carry out additions and subtractions for numbers of any length. A number is represented as an object which includes a sign and two strings for the whole and decimal parts of the number. And, the operations must be done by adding or subtracting characters directly. You are not allowed to convert these strings to numbers before the operation.

The program must use a "Number" class which includes at least the following methods:

Number ( );
Number (double n);
Number add (Number RHS);
Number subtract (Number RHS);
String toString ( );

This is what i have but it only adds positive numbers and it doesn't subtract problems like 7.05-8.96. Also some of it was what our teacher gave us like alignwhole method

import java.util.Scanner; 
public class Number{
private String whole;
private String decimal;
private String sign;
  public static void main (String[] args){
 System.out.println("Enter two numbers");

[code]....

Fraction Class - Calculating Less Than Percentage GCD On Negative Numbers

Feb 15, 2014

I've been writing a fraction class code below that does a number of arithmetic calcs and when I run it these are the results I get. My gcd doesn't work when it comes to negative fractions and I'm not quite sure how to print.out the boolean methods ((greaterthan)), ((equals))and ((negative)). I'm also not sure if I have implemented those 3 methods properly. I'm still learning how to do unit testing.

Subtracting Strings - Parsing Two Values To Ints

Nov 5, 2014

I have started learning Java and have some across some difficulties. I'm trying to subtract two strings.

for example, with these strings;"032"&&"100". I want to be able to subtract each number individually so that the answer would be "032". 0-1;3-0;2-0;. if i get a negative number, the number would be zero. hence, the 0-1 staying zero in the answer.

I have tried using substring, and parsing the two values to ints, but don't know what to do next. I have also tries using a for loop, to go through each arrays of the strings. I am not allowed to use StringBuilder and I need to return "032".

Here's what i've done so far:
 
public static String appliquerCoup( String combination, String coup ) {
String nouveauCoup=""; 
if(combination!=null&&coup!=null){
for(int i=0;i>combinaison.length();i++){

Adding And Subtracting In Budget Program - Display Table Showing Transactions

Mar 15, 2014

Budget program. Here is my situation, I have 2 tabs in a GUI, one tab adds a transactions when the add button is clicked, and in the other tab displays a table showing all the transactions. In my code, I want it so that when the user chooses a deposit(combo box variable name = cbType, indexnumber for deposit is 0) it will add to the total and when the user chooses withdraw(index number is 1) then it will subtract it from the total. Here is the code.... (note as well, the code also adds a new row to the table)

//add button clicked
private class BtnAddActionListener implements ActionListener {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
((DefaultTableModel)table.getModel()).addRow(new Object[]{
cbMonth.getSelectedItem() + "/" + txtDay.getText() + "/" + cbYear.getSelectedItem(),
cbCategory.getSelectedItem(),

[Code] .....

So when I tested the program with 2 transactions, the first transaction was a deposit and the 2nd transaction was a withdraw. The end product was that both amounts were subtracted from the total. When I did a withdraw first and a deposit second, the amounts were both added together.

Changing Double To Fraction

Jan 6, 2015

I was wondering how you would change a double to a fraction.

For Example:
double x = .5

From this we know that the fraction is obviously 1/2 (simple form of course), but what are the steps necessary to convert the double to the fraction 1/2?

Creating Methods Using Arrays - Fraction Class

Sep 27, 2014

I am trying to get the average of 3 different fraction arrays. I made a fraction class and I made methods such as read() and average() in this new class.

package fractions;
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class FractionArrays {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Fraction completeFraction = new Fraction(5,6);

[Code] ....

I was wondering if there was any way to use the arrays I created in the read method in the average method. If I find that out I should be able to do it on my own. Is there a way to make the arrays public to use in different methods?

Fraction Calculator Prints Correct Answer But Not In Decimal

Feb 23, 2015

package FracCalc;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class FracCalc {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
 
int n1 = 0; //n1 = first numerator user have to enter
int d1 = 0; //d1 = first denominator user have to enter
int n2 = 0; //n2 = second numerator user have to enter
int d2 = 0; //d2 = second denominator user have to enter
int numeratorAnswer = 0; //calculates numerator of an equation
int denominatorAnswer = 0; //calculates denominator of an equation
 
[code]...

I mean its not that important but i figure it will be better if I could print out the answer both in fraction format and decimal format. while my answer prints in fraction just fine how do i show it in decimal?

System.out.println("");
 
System.out.print("And ");
System.out.print("answer in Decimal is: ");
 
decimalAnswer = ((double)numeratorAnswer/denominatorAnswer);
System.out.println((float)decimalAnswer);

Replace Negative Zero With Zero When Printing?

Mar 2, 2015

How do you replace negative zero value with a zero value when Printing results:

I want to remove the minus sign in -0.0000 and instead have 0.0000.

I am Printing coordinates and I do not want to have negative zero.

the coordinates are defined as double.

System.out.format(java.util.Locale.US," %.4f %.4f %.4f %.4f%n"xCur ,yCur,xNext,yNext);

0.0000 1.0000 -0.0000 0.0000

Getting Negative Number For Product Of Odd Integers

Sep 18, 2014

I am not sure what is happening with my code, but it is giving me a negative number. I am trying to write a program that calculates the product of the odd integers between 1 and 25. I messed with the program and as soon as you enter a number over 22, the end result is a negative number.

int total = 1;
for (int i = 1; i <= 25; i += 2){
total *= i;

Input Validation For Negative Numbers

Feb 20, 2014

I am very new to Java. I have been working for a couple months on a program for school. It has not gone well. I finally was able to scrap together a working program, but i left something out that needs to be. I have to include input validation to check for negative values, prompting users to re-enter values if negative. I have included my current code, the program works perfectly, but what to do about the negative numbers.

Java Code:

package gradplanner;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class GradPlanner {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
int numofclasses = 0;
int totalCUs = 0;

Removing Negative Number From Array

Jul 20, 2014

Ask the user to enter a sequence of at most 20 nonnegative integers. Your program should have a loop that reads the integers into an array and stops when a negative is entered (the negative number should not be stored). Invoke the average method to find the average of the integers in the array (send the array as the parameter).

how can I remove the negative number from the array and calculate the average of the posive elements without the negative ones? This is my code so far...

import java.util.Scanner;
import javax.swing.JApplet;
public class Parameters
{
//-------------------------------------
//Calls the average and minimum methods
//with different numbers of parameters
