why does displayed number goes above the input number in java?

Currently, I am doing an assignment on displaying all odd numbers up to a user inputted specific odd number. The requirement is to include the input number, however, I don't understand why does the code always goes to the next Odd number compared to what user inputted. Please help.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class OddNumbers {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Pls enter an odd number you want to finish to: ");
int capp_number = input.nextInt();
int startingNumber = 1;
for(int i = 0; i < capp_number; i+= 2){
startingNumber += 2;
System.out.println(startingNumber);
}

This is because i starts at 0 (It is even), and you are checking to see if it is less than capp_number (which should be odd), and then adding two to i. startingNumber starts at 1, so it is odd. So if the user enters 5 it will go like:
Iteration 1:
i (0) < 5 ? Yes:
print startingNumber+2
output: 3
i == 2
Iteration 2:
i (2) < 5 ? Yes:
print startingNumber +2
output: 5
i == 4
Iteration 3:
i (4) < 5 ? Yes:
print startingNumber +2
output: 7
i == 6
Iteration 4
i (6) < 5 No:
end loop
To fix this, start i at one:
for(int i = 1; i < capp_number; i+= 2)

Sorry, but why did you write this ?
while(startingNumber < capp_number);
i agree with a previous answer and think that there is no reason for this line. And also you should correct your loop as it was also mentioned in previous answer:for(int i = 0; i < capp_number; i+= 2)

Try this. You needed to initialise i to 1 within the for-loop. 1 is an odd number so instead of starting with an even number (0), you look for every odd number.
For example, if you start at 1: 1+2=3, 3+2=5, 5+2=7.... and so on.
For example, if you start at 0: 0+2=2, 2+2=4, 4+2=6.... and so on.
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Pls enter an odd number you want to finish to: ");
int capp_number = input.nextInt();
int startingNumber = 1;
for(int i = 1; i < capp_number; i += 2){
startingNumber += 2;
System.out.println(startingNumber);
}

Divide integer by 12 and show if remainder is odd or even [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Java Remainder of Integer Divison?
(6 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
Trying to create a program that asks the user to input a number between 20 and 100.
After the number has been entered. The program will divide the entered number by 12. The program will then say if the result of the division is even or odd. (example: the remainder of 35 divided by 12 is 11, and it is odd.)
I have started the program but cannot figure out the division part.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Chpt3_Project {
public static void main (String [] args) {
// Create a Scanner object
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
// Prompt the user to enter an integer value between 20 and 100.
int input;
do {
System.out.print("Enter a number between 20 and 100: ");
input = sc.nextInt();
if (input < 20 || input >= 101) {
System.out.println("Invalid number input!");
}
} while (input < 20 || input >= 101);
//Divide result by 12 and show if even or odd
}
}

You can use the modulo operator to check whether a number is even or odd.
Let's say you have
int n = 7;
applying the modulo operator
int r = n % 2;
will yield 1 - as what happens is this:
Divide n by 2 and return the remainder.
So, we know that if the remainder of a % 2 operation is 0, the number is even, otherwise, if the remainder is 1, the number is odd.
In your case, the code could look like this:
public static void main (String [] args) {
// Create a Scanner object
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
// Prompt the user to enter an integer value between 20 and 100.
int input = 0;
do {
System.out.print("Enter a number between 20 and 100: ");
input = sc.nextInt();
if (input < 20 || input >= 101) {
System.out.println("Invalid number input!");
}
} while (input < 20 || input >= 101);
// Divide the input by 12 and check if the remainder is an even number (== 0).
boolean isEven = (input % 12) % 2 == 0;
if(isEven) {
System.out.println("Input is an even number.");
}
else {
System.out.println("Input is an odd number.");
}
}

In order to do the math you have to first retrieve the result of modular division of N mod(12) and then check if the remainder is dividable by 2 -> ((N mod(12) mod(2)).
int remainderAfterDivisionByTwelve = n % 12; // n = 35 -> results in 11
boolean isRemainderEven = (remainder % 2) == 0; // remainder = 11 -> results in (1 == 0) false

Processing numbers program

Firstly, I'm taking AP Computer Science this year, and this question is related to an exercise we were assigned in class. I have written the code, and verified that it meets the requirements to my knowledge, so this is not a topic searching for homework answers.
What I'm looking for is to see if there's a much simpler way to do this, or if there's anything I could improve on in writing my code. Any tips would be greatly appreciated, specific questions asked below the code.
The exercise is as follows: Write a program called ProcessingNumbers that does:
Accepts a user input as a string of numbers
Prints the smallest and largest of all the numbers supplied by the user
Print the sum of all the even numbers the user typed, along with the largest even number typed.
Here is the code:
import java.util.*;
public class ProcessingNumbers {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Initialize variables and objects
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
ArrayList<Integer> al = new ArrayList();
int sumOfEven = 0;
// Initial input
System.out.print("Please input 10 integers, separated by spaces.");
// Stores 10 values from the scanner in the ArrayList
for(int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
al.add(sc.nextInt());
}
// Sorts in ascending order
Collections.sort(al);
// Smallest and largest values section
int smallest = al.get(0);
int largest = al.get(al.size() - 1);
System.out.println("Your smallest value is " + smallest + " and your largest value is " + largest);
// Sum of Even numbers
int arrayLength = al.size();
for (int i = 0; i < al.size(); i++) {
if (al.get(i) % 2 == 0) {
sumOfEven += al.get(i);
}
}
System.out.println("The sum of all even numbers is " + sumOfEven);
// Last section, greatest even number
if (al.get(arrayLength - 1) % 2 == 0) {
System.out.println("The greatest even number typed is " + al.get(arrayLength - 1));
} else {
System.out.println("The greatest even number typed is " + al.get(arrayLength - 2));
}
sc.close();
}
}
Here are specific questions I'd like answered, if possible:
Did I overthink this? Was there a much simpler, more streamlined way to solve the problem?
Was the use of an ArrayList mostly necessary? We haven't learned about them yet, I did get approval from my teacher to use them though.
How could I possibly code it so that there is no 10 integer limit?
This is my first time on Stackoverflow in quite some time, so let me know if anything's out of order.
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Usage of the ArrayList wasn't necessary, however it does make it much simpler due to Collections.sort().
To remove the 10 integer limit you can ask the user how many numbers they want to enter:
int numbersToEnter = sc.nextInt();
for(int i = 0; i < numbersToEnter; i++) {
al.add(sc.nextInt());
}
Another note is that your last if-else to get the highest even integer doesn't work, you want to use a for loop, something like this:
for (int i = al.size() - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
if (al.get(i) % 2 == 0) {
System.out.println("The greatest even number typed is " + al.get(i));
break;
}

I wouldn't say so. Your code is pretty straightforward and simple. You could break it up into separate methods to make it cleaner and more organized, though that isn't necessary unless you have sections of code that have to be run repeatedly or if you have long sections of code cluttering up your main method. You also could have just used al.size() instead of creating arrayLength.
It wasn't entirely necessary, though it is convenient. Now, regarding your next question, you definitely do want to use an ArrayList rather than a regular array if you want it to have a variable size, since arrays are created with a fixed size which can't be changed.
Here's an example:
int number;
System.out.print("Please input some integers, separated by spaces, followed by -1.");
number = sc.nextInt();
while (number != -1) {
al.add(number);
number = sc.nextInt();
}

Here is a solution that:
Doesn't use Scanner (it's a heavyweight when all you need is a line of text)
Doesn't have a strict limit to the number of numbers
Doesn't need to ask how many numbers
Doesn't waste space/time on a List
Handles the case when no numbers are entered
Handles the case when no even numbers are entered
Fails with NumberFormatException if non-integer is entered
Moved actual logic to separate method, so it can be mass tested
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
System.out.println("Enter numbers, separated by spaces:");
processNumbers(new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)).readLine());
}
public static void processNumbers(String numbers) {
int min = 0, max = 0, sumOfEven = 0, maxEven = 1, count = 0;
if (! numbers.trim().isEmpty())
for (String value : numbers.trim().split("\\s+")) {
int number = Integer.parseInt(value);
if (count++ == 0)
min = max = number;
else if (number < min)
min = number;
else if (number > max)
max = number;
if ((number & 1) == 0) {
sumOfEven += number;
if (maxEven == 1 || number > maxEven)
maxEven = number;
}
}
if (count == 0)
System.out.println("No numbers entered");
else {
System.out.println("Smallest number: " + min);
System.out.println("Largest number: " + max);
if (maxEven == 1)
System.out.println("No even numbers entered");
else {
System.out.println("Sum of even numbers: " + sumOfEven);
System.out.println("Largest even number: " + maxEven);
}
}
}

java program outputting even/odd numbers

My task is to write a java program that first asks the user how many numbers will be inputted, then outputs how many odd and even numbers that were entered. It is restricted to ints 0-100. My question is: What am I missing in my code?
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Clancy_Lab_06_03 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
int n;
System.out.println("How many numbers will be entered?");
n = input.nextInt();
while (n < 0 || n > 100) {
System.out.println("ERROR! Valid range 0-100. RE-Enter:");
n = input.nextInt();
n++;
}
int odd = 0;
int even = 0;
while (n >= 0 || n <= 100) {
n = input.nextInt();
if (n % 2 == 0) {
even++;
} else {
odd++;
}
}
System.out.println(even + "even" + odd + "odd");
}
}

Second while loop is infinite. Relplace it with something like this:
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
int b = input.nextInt();
if (b % 2 == 0) {
even++;
} else {
odd++;
}
}
Also I don't understand why are you incrementing n in first loop. For example when you will first give -5, you will be asked to re-enter the number. Then you type -1, but it gets incremented and in fact program processes 0, altough user typed -1. In my opinion it is not how it suppose to work and you should just remove this n++.
As you asked in comment - the same using while loop:
while(n > 0) {
n--;
int b = input.nextInt();
if (b % 2 == 0) {
even++;
} else {
odd++;
}
}
Also it is good idea to close input when you no longer need it (for example at the end of main method)
input.close();

You had two issues - first you were incrementing n in the first loop, rather than waiting for the user to enter a valid number.
In the second loop, you weren't comparing the number of entries the user WANTED to make with the number they HAD made - you were over-writing the former with the new number.
This version should work, although I've not tested it as I don't have java on this machine.
Note that we now sit and wait for both inputs, and use different variable names for the "how many numbers will you enter" (n) and "what is the next number you wish to enter" (num) variables? Along with a new variable i to keep track of how many numbers the user has entered.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Clancy_Lab_06_03
{
public static void main (String[] args)
{
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
int n;
System.out.println ("How many numbers will be entered?");
n = input.nextInt();
//Wait for a valid input
while (n < 0 || n > 100)
{
System.out.println ("ERROR! Valid range 0-100. RE-Enter:");
n = input.nextInt();
}
//Setup variables for the loop
int odd = 0;
int even = 0;
int num;
//Keep counting up until we hit n (where n is the number of entries the user just said they want to make)
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
//Changed this, because you were over-writing n (remember, n is the number of entries the user wants to make)
//Get a new input
while (num < 0 || num > 100)
{
System.out.println ("ERROR! Valid range 0-100. RE-Enter:");
num = input.nextInt();
}
//Check whether the user's input is even or odd
if (num % 2 == 0)
{
even++;
}
else
{
odd++;
}
}
System.out.println(even + " even. " + odd + " odd.");
}
}

import java.util.Scanner;
public class Test2 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Enter an Integer number:");
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
int num = input.nextInt();
if ( num % 2 == 0 )
System.out.println("Entered number is even");
else
System.out.println("Entered number is odd");
}
}

My suggestion to you is to have a clear separation of your requirements. From your post, you indicate you need to prompt the user for two distinct data items:
How many numbers will be entered (count)
The values to be analyzed
It is a good practice, especially when you are learning, to use meaningful names for your variables. You are using 'n' for a variable name, then reusing it for different purposes during execution. For you, it is obvious it was difficult to figure out what was 'n' at a particular part of the program.
Scanner input = new Scanner (System.in);
int count;
System.out.println ("How many numbers will be entered?");
count = input.nextInt();
//Wait for a valid input
while (count < 1 || count > 100)
{
System.out.println ("ERROR! Valid range 1-100. RE-Enter:");
count = input.nextInt();
}
Additionally, a count of zero should not be valid. It does not make sense to run a program to evaluate zero values (don't bother a program that does nothing). I believe the lowest count should be one instead.
int odd = 0;
int even = 0;
int value;
do
{
System.out.print("Enter a number between 0 and 100: ");
value = input.nextInt();
while (value < 0 || value > 100)
{
System.out.println ("ERROR! Valid range 0-100. RE-Enter:");
value = input.nextInt();
}
if (value % 2 == 0)
{
even++;
}
else
{
odd++;
}
count--; // decrement count to escape loop
} while (count > 0);
System.out.println(even + " even. " + odd + " odd.");
This example uses a do/while loop because in this case, it is OK to enter the loop at least once. This is because you do not allow the user to enter an invalid number of iterations in the first part of the program. I use that count variable directly for loop control (by decrementing its value down to 0), rather than creating another variable for loop control (for instance , 'i').
Another thing, slightly off topic, is that your requirements were not clear. You only indicated that the value was bounded to (inclusive) values between 0 and 100. However, how many times you needed to repeat the evaluation was not really clear. Most people assume 100 was also the upper bound for your counter variable. Because the requirement is not clear, checking a value greater or equal to 1 for the count might be valid, although highly improbable (you don't really want to repeat a million times).
Lastly, you have to pay attention to AND and OR logic in your code. As it was indicated, your second while loop:
while (n >= 0 || n <= 100) {}
Is infinite. Because an OR evaluation only needs one part to evaluate to TRUE, any number entered will allow the loop to continue. Obviously, the intent was not allow values greater than 100. However, entering 150 allows the loop to continue because 150 >= 0. Likewise, -90 also allows the loop to continue because -90 <= 100. This is when pseudocode helps when you are learning. You wanted to express "a VALUE between lower_limit AND upper_limit." If you reverse the logic to evaluate values outside the limit, then you can say " value below lower_limit OR above upper_limit." These pseudocode expressions are very helpful determining which logical operator you need.
I also took the liberty to add a message to prompt the user for a value. Your program expects the user to enter two numbers (count and value) but only one prompt message is provided; unless they enter an out of range value.

extract even numbers from arrayList
ArrayList numberList = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(1,2,3,4,5,6));
numberList.stream().filter(i -> i % 2 == 0).forEach(System.out::println);

Unsure what the issue is

I'm really new to this whole programming thing, and I'm trying to wrap my head around why the loop ends abruptly and does not continue to the final if statement. Can you guys help me figure out whats wrong?
import java.util.Scanner;
public class FunnyAverage {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("How many values to read? ");
int top = in.nextInt();
System.out.print("Enter Value: ");
int one = in.nextInt();
int number = 1;
int sum = 0;
sum = sum + one;
while (number <= top) {
if (one % 6 != 0 && one % 17 != 0) {
System.out.print("Enter Value: ");
one = in.nextInt();
number++;
} else if (one % 6 == 0 && one % 17 == 0) {
System.out.print("Enter Value: ");
one = in.nextInt();
number++;
}
}
if (sum / top != 0) {
System.out.print("Average: " + sum / top);
}
System.out.print("None Divisible");
}
}

The final if() condition executes if you give the right input values. I ran your code and gave the below inputs to execute the final if() statement.
How many values to read? 1
Enter Value: 1
Enter Value: 1
Average: 1None Divisible
I dont understand what are you trying in the code, but there are many things missing like i assume you want to capture the sum of the input numbers, but sum is not used in the while loop.

Looks like you end up in the non-present else case (within the while loop). Consequently, number isn't increased and you are stuck in the while loop.
Try reading one within the while loop. This way the user will be prompted to enter a new number in each loop.
Otherwise you will be stuck in the while loop once the user enters a number that isn't conform with your checks.
