How to print out information from data used in arrays?

My code asks for a user to enter how many wins, losses, and ties 6 different sports teams have gotten throughout a season. How can I make it so that once all the information has been received, it will print out how many wins, ties, and losses each team have gotten, as well as displaying the total amount of each?
Code:
package SMKTeamStandings;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class SMKTeamStandings {
public static Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
public static int number(int max, int min) {
int teamchoice = 0;
for (boolean valid = false; valid == false;) {
teamchoice = in.nextInt();
if (teamchoice >= min && teamchoice <= max) {
valid = true;
} else {
System.out.println("Please enter a different value.");
}
}
return teamchoice;
}
public static boolean finished(boolean[] completedArray) {
int i = 0;
boolean done;
for (done = true; done == true;) {
if (completedArray[i++] == false) {
done = false;
}
}
return done;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
int teamChoice = 0, gamesNum;
String[] sportteams = {"Basketball", "Football",
"Hockey", "Rugby",
"Soccer", "Volleyball"};
boolean[] completed = new boolean[sportteams.length];
int[][] Outcome = new int[64][sportteams.length];
for (boolean done = false; done == false;) {
for (int i = 0; i < sportteams.length; i++) {
System.out.print(i + 1 + " - " + sportteams[i]);
if (completed[i] == true) {
System.out.println(" - Finished");
} else {
System.out.println();
}
}
System.out.print("\nChoose a team from the list above:");
teamChoice = number(6, 1);
teamChoice--;
System.out.print("\nHow many games total did the " + sportteams[teamChoice]
+ " team play this season?: ");
gamesNum = in.nextInt();
System.out.format("\n %10s %10s %10s %10s %10s \n\n", "", "Possible Outcomes:",
"1 - Win",
"2 - Tie",
"3 - Loss");
for (int wintieloss = 0; wintieloss < gamesNum; wintieloss++) {
System.out.print("\nEnter the outcome for game "
+ (wintieloss + 1) + ": ");
Outcome[wintieloss][teamChoice] = number(3, 1);
}
System.out.println("\n");
completed[teamChoice] = true;
done = finished(completed);

If I understood you correctly, you just want to output the data you got from the user. To do that you could go through the data array using a for loop and accessing the data using indices.
for(int team = 0; team < sportteams.length; team++) { // for each team
System.out.println((team + 1) + " - " + sportteams[team]); // output the team
int game = 0; // index of the current game
while(Outcome[game][team] != 0) { // while there is data
System.out.print("Game " + (game + 1) ": " + Outcome[game][team] + " "); // print the data
game++; // increment the index
}
System.out.println("Total games: " + game); // print the last index == total number of games
System.out.println();
}

Replace a int or long with a string in for loop?

I needed to print the Fibonacci Sequence up to 50 numbers, which I eventually figured out, but I also need to replace certain numbers that are divisible by some number with certain words. I kind of figured this out. I got the words to come up, but I could not replace the number. I tried using String.valueOf and replaceAll, but the number still keeps showing up. I left that part of the code in comments because it was not working. I am going to post my code below:
public static void main(String[] args) {
long n = 50;
System.out.print("1 ");
long x = 0;
long y = 1;
String mult3 = "cheese";
String mult5 = "cake";
String mult7 = "factory";
String mult2 = "blah";
for (long i = 1; i < n; i++) {
long forSum = x + y;
x = y;
y = forSum;
if(forSum==89){
System.out.println("");
}
if(forSum==10946){
System.out.println("");
}
if(forSum==1346269){
System.out.println("");
}
if(forSum==165580141){
System.out.println("");
}
if(forSum %3 == 0){
//String mult3 = String.valueOf(forSum);
//String mult4 = "cheese";
//String mult3cheese = mult3.replaceAll(mult3, mult4);
//System.out.print(mult3cheese);
System.out.print(mult3);
}
if(forSum %5 == 0){
System.out.print(mult5);
}
if(forSum %7 == 0){
System.out.print(mult7);
}
if(forSum %2 == 0){
System.out.print(mult2);
}
System.out.print(forSum + " ");
}//for loop for forSum
}//public static void main

You need to place some "continue" statements to skip past the line that prints the number, if you have matched a "replace the number" condition:
public static void main(String[] args) {
long n = 50;
System.out.print("1 ");
long x = 0;
long y = 1;
String mult3 = "cheese";
String mult5 = "cake";
String mult7 = "factory";
String mult2 = "blah";
for (long i = 1; i < n; i++) {
long forSum = x + y;
x = y;
y = forSum;
if(forSum==89){
continue;
}
if(forSum==10946){
continue;
}
if(forSum==1346269){
continue;
}
if(forSum==165580141){
continue;
}
if(forSum %3 == 0){
//String mult3 = String.valueOf(forSum);
//String mult4 = "cheese";
//String mult3cheese = mult3.replaceAll(mult3, mult4);
//System.out.print(mult3cheese);
System.out.print(mult3 + " ");
continue
}
if(forSum %5 == 0){
System.out.print(mult5 + " ");
continue;
}
if(forSum %7 == 0){
System.out.print(mult7 + " ");
continue;
}
if(forSum %2 == 0){
System.out.print(mult2 + " ");
continue;
}
System.out.print(forSum + " ");
}//for loop for forSum
}//public static void main
"continue" means "skip the rest of the code inside this loop and do the next iteration of the loop"

I have got it working so that it keeps count of the games won and lost, as well as assigning a score based on the amount of attempts/lives saved but I haven't been able to find a way to get it to keep a total score for all of the games played. Each game unfortunately has a seperate score. If anyone can advise me on a way of doing this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Create an int totalScore variable where winCounter, loseCounter and score are defined. Then increment it after each call to scoreGame()
score = scoreGame(attempts);
totalScore += score;
System.out.println("Your score is: " + score);
If you want to permanently save statistics between sessions then it's a whole nother story. You would need to write your scores to a file after each round and then start your program by reading this score file. It's hardly impossible, but requires a bit more code.

Pulling multiple elements out of an array and labeling them specifically

I need to program an array that functions as horses in a race. Everytime the user presses enter the horses will "run" or the array will add random numbers to them and update their position. The console is printing their position after every button press. I need to label the 1st 2nd and 3rd horses after the race is over (when the horses hit 15). I cannot figure out how to do this.
Right now I am searching through the array and if an element of the array is greater than or equal to 15 I have it set to print the first place horse. How do I make it so that it will print the 2nd and 3rd place as the next highest positions (ex. 1st = 15, 2nd = 13, 3rd = 12)?
Also, it appears that my program will not stop. How do I get it to stop after 15 or higher is reached? Thank you!
import java.util.*;
public class HorseRace2{
public static void main(String[ ] arg){
Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in);
int range = 3;
int win = 15;
final int SIZE = 3;
Random ran = new Random( );
boolean winner = false;
int[ ] arrRan = new int[SIZE];
System.out.print("Off to the races! Press enter to make the horses run.");
String readString = reader.nextLine();
while(readString!=null){
System.out.print(readString);
if(readString.equals("")){
for(int i = 0; i<arrRan.length; i++){
arrRan[i] = arrRan[i] + (ran.nextInt(3) + 1);
System.out.println("Horse " + (i+1) + ":" + arrRan[i]);
}
}//end if
if(reader.hasNextLine()){
readString = reader.nextLine();
System.out.println("Please press enter to make the horses run.");
}
for(int i = 0; i<arrRan.length; i++){
if(arrRan[i]>=win){
System.out.println("1st place: Horse " + (i+1));
}
}
}//end while
}//close main
}//close class

It's not stopping because the condition readString != null isn't being violated.
For it to print the non-1st place horses, sort the array and assign places as applicable.
For it to stop, try replacing while( readString != null ) with while( nobodyHasWon ). Make a boolean boolean nobodyHasWon = true and set it to false when a horse has won (i.e., after System.out.println("1st place: Horse " + (i+1));).
Alternatively, you could do this:
// assumptions made: there is only one winner at 15, the rest are below 15, there are no ties, and the first ranked horse has been found
int second, third, secondValue, thirdValue;
secondValue = 0; thirdValue = 0;
for( int i = 0; i < arrRan.length; i++ ) {
if( i != <indexOfFirstPlaceHorse> )
{
if( arrRan[ i ] > secondValue ) {
second = i;
secondValue = arrRan[ i ];
}
}
}
for( int i = 0; i < arrRan.length; i++ ) {
if( i != <indexOfFirstPlaceHorse> && i != second ) {
if( arrRan[ i ] > thirdValue ) {
third = i;
thirdValue = arrRan[ i ];
}
}
}

Try this one I updated the code.

Java count longest possible array

I'm doing a coin toss program, and am trying to determine the longest possible run of heads or tails that were tossed. I already have code for determining if toss is heads or tails, but now need to count longest possible run. Help! Here's my code for the basic program.
public static void coin_toss(char [] toss)
{
int s = 0;
try
{
for (s = 0; s <= toss.length; s++)
{
double flip;
flip = (double)(Math.random());
if (flip < 0.5)
toss[s] = 't';
else
toss[s] = 'h';
}//end of for loop to load array
}
catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException errorMessage)
{
System.out.println("\nSubscript out of bounds");
System.out.println("Subscript went past the limit of " + toss.length);
System.out.println("Last value of subscript was --> " + s);
System.out.println("-------------------------------------------------");
System.out.println(errorMessage);
System.out.println("-------------------------------------------------");
}
}//end of toss coin
public static double percent_heads (char [] toss)
{
double percent_h;
int heads = 0;
for (int s = 0; s < toss.length; s++)
{
if (toss[s] == 'h')
heads = heads + 1;
}
System.out.println("There were " + heads + " heads results");
percent_h = (double)heads / toss.length;
return (percent_h);
}//end of heads percentage function
public static double percent_tails (char [] toss)
{
double percent_t;
int tails = 0;
for (int s = 0; s < toss.length; s++)
{
if (toss[s] == 't')
tails = tails + 1;
}
System.out.println("There were " + tails + " tails results");
percent_t = (double)tails / toss.length;
return (percent_t);
}//end of tails percentage function
public static void main(String [] args)
{
int num_toss = 0;
double heads, tails;
double percent_t, percent_h;
DecimalFormat percent = new DecimalFormat ("#0.00%");
System.out.print("How many tosses would you like? --> ");
num_toss = GetInput.readLineInt();
char [] toss = new char[num_toss];
System.out.println("You chose " + toss.length + " tosses");
coin_toss(toss);
heads = percent_heads(toss);
tails = percent_tails(toss);
System.out.println("The percentage of heads was --> " + percent.format(heads));
System.out.println("The percentage of tails was --> " + percent.format(tails));
longest_toss(toss);
java.util.Date today = new java.util.Date();
System.out.println("\nProgram terminated at " + today);
System.exit(0);
}//end of main method
}//end of class

There is a method I came up with.
public static void longest_toss(char[] toss){
int longestrun = 0;
int curlongestrun = 0;
char prevrun = toss[0];
for (int s = 1; s < toss.length; s++)
{
if (toss[s] == prevrun) {
curlongestrun++;
}else {
curlongestrun=0;
}
if(curlongestrun>longestrun){
longestrun = curlongestrun;
}
prevrun = toss[s];
}
System.out.println("Longest run is : " + longestrun + " Coin side : " + prevrun);
}

You can get maximum index of the array toss[] as Integer.MAX_VALUE - 8
Here it is less by 8 because, in the source code of java.util.ArrayList class, it is clearly mentioned that, MAX_ARRAY_SIZE = Integer.MAX_VALUE - 8 provided you have sufficient memory to hold the content of array with this much data.

int getLongestHeads(char [] toss){
int longestHeads = 0;
for(char c : toss)
{
if(longestHeads > 0 && c == 'h'){
longestHeads = longestHeads + 1;
}
else{
longestHeads = 0;
}
if(c == 'h' && longestHeads == 0) {
longestHeads = 1;
}
}
return longestHeads;
}
