We Keep Coding

Java Program Unable to receive the input and program terminated prematurely

I'm not sure y this coding is not receiving the input for the adjust variable and gets terminated before it runs completely
public class Question {
int id;
String name;
String type;
double amt;
public Question(int id, String name, String type, double amt) {
this.id = id;
this.name = name;
this.type = type;
this.amt = amt;
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{ }
}
import java.util.*;
public class Answer {
public static void gettype(Question[] q,String adjust)
{
for(int i=0;i<2;i++)
{
if(q[i].getType()==adjust)
{
System.out.println(q[i].getId());
}
}}
public static void main(String[] args) {
int id;
String name,type,adjust;
double amt;
Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in);
Answer a=new Answer();
System.out.println("enter 2 car inputs");
Question[] q=new Question[2];
for(int i=0;i<2;i++)
{
id=s.nextInt();
s.nextLine();
name=s.nextLine();
type=s.nextLine();
amt=s.nextDouble();
q[i]= new Question(id,name,type,amt);
}
adjust=s.nextLine();
a.gettype(q,adjust);
}
}
While running the code i am able to get the inputs for the car object array.But after that i am not able to get the values for the variable adjust.
So please need help with this one.
I have tried simply to print the objects at the constructor side.
But not able to receive the 9th input which will be assigned to the var adjust

I think this is better. You should understand why mine works.

this.id = id;
this.name = name;
this.type = type;
this.amt = amt;
}
int getId() {
return id;
}
String getName() {
return name;
}
String getType() {
return type;
}
double getAmt() {
return amt;
}

return sb.toString();

array in object oriented programming

I'm a beginner in object-oriented programming and this is my first little project.I've heard that here everyone can help you in your code and this is my first time.Anyway, my problem why array doesn't store any value?
Here is the code:
public class Information {
private IT_Members[] member= new IT_Members[10];
private int counter = 0;
Information()
{
for ( int ctr=0;ctr<member.length;ctr++)
{
member[ctr] = new IT_Members ();
}
}
public void Add(IT_Members member)
{
if(counter<10)
{
this.member[counter].setName(member.getName());
this.member[counter].setDeparment(member.getDeparment());
this.member[counter].setPostion(member.getPostion());
this.member[counter].setID(member.getID()+counter);
counter++;
}
else
System.out.println("Add List Full");
}
public void Display()
{
if (counter!=0)
{
for (int ctr=0;ctr<10;ctr++){
System.out.println(this.member[ctr].getName()+
this.member[ctr].getDeparment()+
this.member[ctr].getPostion()+
this.member[ctr].getID());
}
}
else
System.out.println("No member yet!");
}
Here is the Main class:
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class Interface {
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Scanner in=new Scanner(System.in);
IT_Members input1 = new IT_Members();
Information input2 = new Information();
int x=1;
while(x!=0)
{
System.out.println(" \n[1] Add new student member. \n[2] View members.\nChoose now: ");
int choose = in.nextInt();
switch (choose){
case 1:
System.out.println("Name: ");
input1.setName(in.nextLine());
System.out.println("Deparment: ");
input1.setDeparment(in.nextLine());
System.out.println("Postion: ");
input1.setPostion(in.nextLine());
System.out.println("Student record has been added. ");
break;
case 2:
input2.Display();
break;
}
}
.........................................................................
public class IT_Members {
private String name,deparment,postion;
private int ID=1000;
private int Flag=0;

"\nDeparment: " + this.deparment +
"\nPostion: " + this.postion +
"\nID: " + this.ID;
return str;
}
}
Please, I'm stuck with this I appreciate any help.
Thanks.

You never call the Add function in the Information class. Therefore you never initialize any of the array elements you then want to display.
You need to add input2.Add(input1) before you print that is has been added.

You have to create every time a new Object and in the end you have to add in the list.
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Arrays;
public class Interface {
public static void main(String[]args)
{
Scanner in=new Scanner(System.in);
Information input2 = new Information();
int x=1;
while(x!=0)
{
System.out.println(" \n[1] Add new student member. \n[2] View members.\nChoose now: ");
int choose = in.nextInt();
switch (choose){
case 1:
IT_Members input1 = new IT_Members();// this need to be here so that every time crete new object
System.out.println("Name: ");
input1.setName(in.nextLine());
System.out.println("Deparment: ");
input1.setDeparment(in.nextLine());
System.out.println("Postion: ");
input1.setPostion(in.nextLine());
input2.Add(input1); // that was missing
System.out.println("Student record has been added. ");
break;
case 2:
input2.Display();
break;
}
}

Please I would like know How would I implement JOptionPane instead of import java.util.Scanner;
I also have 4 separate classes
If i implement JOptionPane will it clean up the code I would also like to know any changes anyone would make.

Start by taking a look at How to Make Dialogs...
What you basically want is to use JOptionPane.showInputDialog, which can be used to prompt the use for input...
Yes, there are a few flavours, but lets keep it simply and look at JOptionPane.showInputDialog(Object)
The JavaDocs tells us that...
message - the Object to display
Returns:user's input, or null meaning the user canceled the input
So, from that we could use something like...
String value = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("What is your name?");
if (value != null) {
System.out.println("Hello " + value);
} else {
System.out.println("Hello no name");
}
Which displays...
Now, if we take a look at your code, you could replace the use of scan with...
public static String getInput(String inputType) {
String input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the " + inputType + ": ");
return input;
}
As an example...
Now, what I might recommend is creating a simple helper method which can be used to prompt the user in a single line of code, for example...
public class InputHelper {
public static String promptUser(String prompt) {
String input = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(prompt);
return input;
}
}
which might be used something like...
String value = InputHelper.promptUser("Please enter the hours worked");
hours_ = Double.parse(value);
And this is where it get's messy, as you will now need to valid the input of the user.
You could extend the idea of the InputHelper to do automatic conversions and re-prompt the user if the value was invalid...as an idea

It is much easier than you think, if you try. Get used to reading the Java API.
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/JOptionPane.html
Even has examples.
String input;
JOptionPane jop=new JOptionPane();
input=jop.showInputDialog("Question i want to ask");
System.out.println(input);

How to sort ArrayList Java

I have this arrayList that i need to first sort from greatest to least by both item price and then after i need to sort it by the amount of items sold. Whats the easiest way to accomplish this? thanks!

Write a custom comparator:
public SalesPersonComparator implements Comparator<salesPerson> {
public int compare(final salesPerson p1, final salesPerson p2) {
// get the comparison of the unit prices (in descending order, so compare p2 to p1)
int comp = new Double(p2.getUnitPrice()).compareTo(new Double(p1.getUnitPrice()));
// if the same
if(comp == 0) {
// compare the units sold (in descending order, so compare p2 to p1)
comp = new Integer(p2.getUnitsSold()).compareTo(new Integer(p1.getUnitsSold()));
}
return comp;
}
}
Edit (thanks to #Levenal):
Then use Collections.sort() to sort your list.

Printing off multiple classes with

I have no idea why our professor is making us do this weird printing but its for our final, its due in an hour, and ive been trying to get it to run forever and I cant get anywhere. So i have four classes, MyWord, Section, Page and Newspaper. MyWord is just Myword. Section contains Section and MyWord. Page includes Section, Page, and MyWord. Newspaper contains them all. I have a main method that just prints off the info you type in. Here is the only example provided. All of my code is included from the classes to show I've actually done work and need help. thank you.
Word[] w = new Word[3]; //example
w[0] = new Word(“hello”);
w[1] = new Word(“bob”);
w[2] = new Word(“smith”);
Section s = new Section(w, 20);
s.print();
