Write A Static Method That Simulates Flip Of Weighted Coin

Apr 22, 2015

I am supposed to write a static method that simulates a flip of a weighted coin by returning either heads or tails each time it is called. The coin is twice as likely to turn up heads as tails. My idea was to of course use a random class

Random flip = new random

and somehow initialize it so 3 numbers are called and create if statements so that when 0 and 1 are called heads returns and when 3 is called tails is.How do I put all this together?

Flip Function - Making Coin Stop On Random Heads Or Tails

Nov 19, 2014

I cannot figure out why my buttons don't work. I believe my problem is in the flip function. I am very new to programming and I am about as good at code logic as I am at real logic lol. Also I am lost on how to go about making the coin stop on a random heads or tails.

Coin cF;
void setup() {
size (600, 600);
cF = new Coin(0,0,0);
}
void draw() {
background(100,100,100);
//Coin(int lX,int lY, int cSize)
//location(int l_x, int l_y)
//flip()

[Code] ....

Write A Class Called Coin Which Will Be Used By A Program Called CountFlips

May 1, 2014

i am trying to write a coin program:Write a class called Coin which will be used by a program called CountFlips.

1. The class, is an object created from this program. It is composed of data values and methods. It should contain a main method and should output the number of flips done (an integer that will be read from the user), the number of heads and tails that occur.

2. The CountFlip class will flip a coin multiple times and counts the number of ‘heads’ and ‘tails’ that result. This class should have a method called flip() of type void; a method called isHead() of type Boolean and a toString() method that will return the current face of the coin as a string.

So i created 2 classes, one called Coin.java & the other CountFlips.java,

PHP Code: package test;
public class Coin {
private final int heads = 0;
private final int tails = 1;
private int facetype;
private int flips;

[code]....

This is my code inside the method:

@Post
public static String getDetails(Representation entity) throws Exception {
String customerId = getQuery().getValues("cus_id");
}

I use this code in Restlet Representation. I try to get the value from the Request API. But I am facing the problem as "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method getQuery() from the type Resource".

Can Static Method Return Instances Of Same Class In Special Case Where Everything Is Static?

Jun 27, 2014

From what i understand static methods should be called without creating an instance of the same class . If so why would they return an instance of the same class like in the following : public static Location locateLargest(double[][] a) , the Location class being the same class where the method is defined . I don't understand this , does it mean that every field and every method in the class must be static ? Meaning that you cannot have instances of the class because everything is static . Or it's just a mistake and the class Location cannot have a static method: public static Location locateLargest(double[][] a) ?

Update User - Cannot Make Static Reference To Non-Static Method

Apr 26, 2015

I can't figure out what this error message "Cannot make a static reference to the non-static method getEndUserCharge(long, long, long, long) from the type UpdateUserWS" actually means.

The error is coming from:

public void updateDetailsPackage() {
some unrelated code
long zero=0;
double endUserCharge=0;
endUserCharge = UpdateUserWS.getEndUserCharge(long zero, long zero, long zero, long zero); <-------- error is here

Non-Static Method Cannot Be Called From Static Context Errors

Jul 27, 2014

I'm working on a banking program that is supposed to use 3 classes (Account-base class, CheckingAccount, and SavingsAccount) and several methods to display the banking information (ID, balance after a withdrawal and deposit, and the annual interest rate). This should be a pretty simple program, but I'm getting hung up on one portion of it. I'm getting some compiler errors, all of which deal with non-static variables being called from a static context (I'll also post these errors following the code). Up until the middle of last week, we just declared everything as static, but that's changed and I'm having trouble figuring out when to and when not to use static when declaring my methods, hence the compiler errors.

import java.util.Date;
public class Account {
private int id = 0;
private double balance = 0;
private double annualInterestRate = 0;
private Date dateCreated = new Date();

[Code] ....

Here are the compiler errors I am receiving:

Compilation completed. The following files were not compiled:
6 errors found:

How To Have Static Or Non-static Method Reference As Parameter

Nov 18, 2014

I had a TestColor class which contained methods to change hue, saturation, brightness, red, green, blue of TestColor's instances but also had static methods which take in an additional parameter for an instance of TestColor and returns the affected instance of TestColor. Now instead of having one method for every possible color effect to be applied to an image, how can I have one method that takes in an Image parameter, a static or non-static method reference from TestColor parameter and lastly an intensnity value parameter. This is so that I can make an affectedImage object instance inside the method and a Graphics2D object for drawing to each pixel of the new image, now I have one for loop and one nested for loop for the x and y pixels of width and height of the old image and inside the nested for loop I'd create a TestColor by calling getRGB on the image's pixel. Then I would apply the static or non-static method reference somehow to change the color with the intensnity value and after applying it draw to the new Image with Graphics2D. How to would I parametize a method reference and be able to use it in such way?

Calling A Non Static Method From Static Method

Jun 24, 2014

We know that a non static method can not be directly refrenced from static method but in the example given below there is no such error.Why?

class A
{
private void display()
{
System.out.println("In A");
}

public static void invoke (A x)
{
x.display();

[code]....

In above case a non static method display() is being invoked from static method invoke ()but it is not giving error.why?

Why Global Var Initialized With Static Method And Not By Other Static Global Var Declared After Its Usage

Jul 27, 2013

Take this:

class test
{
static int i=j;
static int j=10;
.....
 
this will give illegal forward reference ....
 
but this will compile successfully ..
 
class test
{
static int i=test1();
static test1()
{
return 20;
}
}
.....
 
plz assume we have main method in both cases ..
 
java would be loading all static members first and would be assigning default values .. and then will be running all the initializers from to bottom ..Why second case is a compile success and not first .. as in second also test1 method is declared after its usage ..

Program That Has Weighted Average Code

Sep 28, 2014

I am doing a program that has a weighted average calculation and everything compiles and runs. It is just that my weighted average seems to be calculating incorrectly.This is the type of output I should see:

Homework:
Number of assignments? 3
Assignment 1 score and max? 14 15
Assignment 2 score and max? 16 20
Assignment 3 score and max? 19 25
Sections attended? 4
Total points = 65 / 80
Weighted score = 40.63
Exam 1:
Score? 81
Curve? 0
Total points = 81 / 100
Weighted score = 16.2
Exam 2:
Score? 95
Curve? 10
Total points = 100 / 100
Weighted score = 30.0
Course grade = 86.83

Below is my code and I think even after getting up this morning and looking at it, I have an error in the calculations, but I can;t pinpoint it.This program is supposed to receive input from user, and calculated the grades of a student with a weighted average
 
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Grades{
private double weightExam;
private double score;
private double curveAmount;
private double scoreTotal;

Static Method Related

Jan 31, 2014

Book says static methods can not access object instance variables. But the following code successfully prints out

ba.balance = 10
instance var = 5.

It seems like Static method is able to access the instance variable of another class, as well as the instance variable of main class. What gives ?

class InitProcess {
public static void main(String[] args) {
mymethod();
}
int x = 5;

Find Weighted Average Of Four Test Scores

Apr 17, 2015

Write a program in JAVA in response to the following prompt:

Design a GUI program to find the weighted average of four test scores. The four test scores and their respective weights are given in the following format:

testscore1 weight1
...

For example, the sample data is as follows:

75 0.20
95 0.35
85 0.15
65 0.30

The user is supposed to enter the data and press a Calculate button. The program must display the weighted average.

Here is what I have written:

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class weightedaverage2 extends JFrame {
private JLabel Score1L,Score2L,Score3L,Score4L;

[Code] .....
