Getting arrayindexoutofboundsexception while running counting non-duplicate sub str operation

I am getting ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException while running below code. I am trying to calculate total number of non-duplicate sub string values in a string. I added try catch to stop this exception. Mostly i am getting in line s2[j]=s2[k];.
public class SubStrLen2 {
public static int StrLen1(String s) {
int n = s.length();
int count=0, flag=0;
char[] s1 = s.toCharArray();
char[] s2 = s1;
// char[] s3;
for(int i=0; i<=n;i++)
{
for(int j =0;j<i; j++)
{
if(s1[i] == s2[j])
{
if(i!=j) {
flag = 1;
for(int k=j+1;k<=n;k++,j++)
{
s2[j]=s2[k];
}
break;
}
}
}
if(flag==0)
{
//s3[i]=s1[i];
count ++;
}
flag =0;
}
return count;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
String sc = "GreekGods";
try {
System.out.println("Length of the Sub str"+ StrLen1(sc));
}catch(ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
System.out.println("Error in Array");
}
}
}

There are multiple observation, a loop index start with 0 should end at total length -1, so If n is your length of Array you code be should be
for(int i=0; i<n;i++)
the same problem is at
for(int k=j+1;k<=n;k++,j++)
here you are not only using = sign which will cause ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException, but you are also incrementing j, which is part of parent loop unless it is intended, you might not get the desired result.

Append string after nth occurrence of a string

I have a string s to which I want to append another string s1 at the specified position.
String s = "17.4755,2.0585,23.6489,12.0045";
String s1=",,,,"
Now I want to add the string s1 after the n-th occurrence of "," character.
I have just started learning Java.

You can use the following method:
public String insert(int n, String original, String other) {
int index = original.indexOf(',');
while(--n > 0 && index != -1) {
index = original.indexOf(',', index + 1);
}
if(index == -1) {
return original;
} else {
return original.substring(0, index) + other + original.substring(index);
}
}

Working with Strings directly is not worth the trouble.
One easy way would be to turn your String into a List and manipulate that.
public void test() {
String s = "17.4755,2.0585,23.6489,12.0045";
// Split s into parts.
String[] parts = s.split(",");
// Convert it to a list so we can insert.
List<String> list = new ArrayList<>(Arrays.asList(parts));
// Inset 3 blank fields at position 2.
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
list.add(2,"");
}
// Create my new string.
String changed = list.stream().collect(Collectors.joining(","));
System.out.println(changed);
}
Prints:
17.4755,2.0585,,,,23.6489,12.0045

I think this is what you want
import java.util.Scanner;
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
String s = "17.4755,2.0585,23.6489,12.0045";
String s1=",,,,";
System.out.println("Enter Nth Occurrence");
try {
int n = scanner.nextInt();
long totalOccurrence = 0;
if (n != 0) {
totalOccurrence = s.chars().filter(num -> num == ',').count();
if (totalOccurrence < n) {
System.out.println("String s have only " + totalOccurrence + " symbol \",\"");
} else {
int count = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
if (s.charAt(i) == ',') {
count++;
if (count == n) {
String resultString = s.substring(0, i) + s1 + s.substring(i, s.length());
System.out.println(resultString);
}
}
}
}
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
System.out.println("Wrong input");
}
}
}
Output :
1. Enter Nth Occurrence
5
String s have only 3 symbol ","
2. Enter Nth Occurrence
2
17.4755,2.0585,,,,,23.6489,12.0045

I was asked this in a technical interview. I have no idea whatsoever please please help me.
it goes in infinite loop. I just cant find the correct logic.
not once, but twice i came across this kind of a question, so please help

Brute forced this so hard lol
public static void main (String args[]){
String input = new Scanner(System.in).nextLine();
input+=" ";
ArrayList<String> words = new ArrayList<String>();
int start = 0;
for(int i=0; i<input.length(); i++){
if(input.charAt(i)==' '){
String toAdd="";
for(int r=start; r<i; r++){

}
words.add(toAdd);
start = i+1;
}
}
for(int i=words.size()-1; i>=0; i--){
System.out.print(words.get(i)+" ");
}
}

I've used String.length() and String.substring()and String.charAt() - I hope that is allowed.
private static class Word {
private final String message;
private final int start;
private final int end;
public Word(String message, int start, int end) {
this.message = message;
this.start = start;
this.end = end;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
return message.substring(start, end);
}
}
private Word[] split(String message) {
// Split it into words - there cannot be more words than characters in the message.
int[] spaces = new int[message.length()];
// How many words.
int nWords = 0;
// Pretend there's a space at the start.
spaces[0] = -1;
// Walk the message.
for (int i = 0; i < message.length(); i++) {
if (message.charAt(i) == ' ') {
spaces[++nWords] = i;
}
}
// Record the final position.
spaces[++nWords] = message.length();
// Build the word array.
Word[] words = new Word[nWords];
for (int i = 0; i < nWords; i++) {
words[i] = new Word(message, spaces[i] + 1, spaces[i + 1]);
}
return words;
}
private String reverse(String message) {
Word[] split = split(message);
String reversed = "";
for ( int i = split.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
reversed += split[i].toString();
if ( i > 0 ) {
reversed += " ";
}
}
return reversed;
}
public void test() {
String message = "Hello how are you today?";
System.out.println(reverse(message));
}
prints
today? you are how Hello

Much more minimal but less useful. Only uses length, charAt and substring again:
public void printWordsReversed(String message) {
int end = message.length();
for ( int i = end - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
if ( message.charAt(i) == ' ') {
System.out.print(message.substring(i+1, end)+" ");
end = i;
}
}
System.out.print(message.substring(0, end));
}

The only function i'm still using is the IndexOf function, but that is not that hard to create for yourself.
static void Main(string[] args)
{
string sentence = "are you cracy";
int length = Program.StringLength(sentence);
int currentpos = 0;
List<string> wordList = new List<string>();
int wordCount = 0;
while (currentpos < length)
{
// find the next space
int spacepos = sentence.IndexOf(' ', currentpos);
string word;
if (spacepos < 0)
{
// end of string reached.
word = sentence.Substring(currentpos, length - currentpos);
wordList.Add(word);
wordCount++;
// no need to continue.
break;
}
word = sentence.Substring(currentpos, spacepos - currentpos);
wordList.Add(word);
wordCount++;
currentpos = spacepos + 1;
}
// display
for (int i = wordList.Count - 1; i >= 0; i--)
{
// after first word is display, add spaces to the output
if (i < wordList.Count - 1)
{
Console.WriteLine(" ");
}
// display word
Console.WriteLine(wordList[i]);
}
}
public static int StringLength(String sentence)
{
int numberOfChars = 0;
while (!sentence.Equals(""))
{
sentence = sentence.Substring(1);
++numberOfChars;
}
return numberOfChars;
}

Remove repeated characters in a string

I need to write a static method that takes a String as a parameter and returns a new String obtained by replacing every instance of repeated adjacent letters with a single instance of that letter without using regular expressions. For example if I enter "maaaakkee" as a String, it returns "make".
I already tried the following code, but it doesn't seem to display the last character.
Here's my code:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class undouble {
public static void main(String [] args){
Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("enter String: ");
String str = console.nextLine();
System.out.println(removeSpaces(str));
}
public static String removeSpaces(String str){
String ourString="";
int j = 0;
for (int i=0; i<str.length()-1 ; i++){
j = i+1;
if(str.charAt(i)!=str.charAt(j)){
ourString+=str.charAt(i);
}
}
return ourString;
}
}

You could use regular expressions for that.
For instance:
String input = "ddooooonnneeeeee";
System.out.println(input.replaceAll("(.)\\1{1,}", "$1"));
Output:
done
Pattern explanation:
"(.)\\1{1,}" means any character (added to group 1) followed by itself at least once
"$1" references contents of group 1

maybe:
for (int i=1; i<str.length() ; i++){
j = i+1;
if(str.charAt(i)!=str.charAt(j)){
ourString+=str.charAt(i);
}
}

The problem is with your condition. You say compare i and i+1 in each iteration and in last iteration you have both i and j pointing to same location so it will never print the last character. Try this unleass you want to use regex to achive this:
EDIT:
public void removeSpaces(String str){
String ourString="";
for (int i=0; i<str.length()-1 ; i++){
if(i==0){
ourString = ""+str.charAt(i);
}else{
if(str.charAt(i-1) != str.charAt(i)){
ourString = ourString +str.charAt(i);
}
}
}
System.out.println(ourString);
}

if you cannot use replace or replaceAll, here is an alternative. O(2n), O(N) for stockage and O(N) for creating the string. It removes all repeated chars in the string put them in a stringbuilder.
input : abcdef , output : abcdef
input : aabbcdeef, output : cdf

{

Integer ocurrence = items.get(current);
if (ocurrence == null)
items.put(current, 1);
else
items.put(current, ocurrence + 1);
}
for (int i = 0; i < str.length(); i++)
{
Character current = str.charAt(i);
Integer ocurrence = items.get(current);
if (ocurrence == 1)
result.append(current);
}
return result.toString();
}

How to remove duplicate character from a string in java?

In my program, the user enters a string, and it first finds the largest mode of characters in the string. Next, my program is supposed to remove all duplicates of a character in a string, (user input: aabc, program prints: abc) which I'm not entirely certain on how to do. I can get it to remove duplicates from some strings, but not all. For example, when the user puts "aabc" it will print "abc", but if the user puts "aabbhh", it will print "abbhh." Also, before I added the removeDup method to my program, it would only print the maxMode once, but after I added the removeDup method, it began to print the maxMode twice. How do I keep it from printing it twice?
Note: I cannot convert the strings to an array.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class JavaApplication3 {
static class MyStrings {
String s;
void setMyStrings(String str) {
s = str;
}
int getMode() {
int i;
int j;
int count = 0;
int maxMode = 0, maxCount = 1;
for (i = 0; i< s.length(); i++) {
maxCount = count;
count = 0;
for (j = s.length()-1; j >= 0; j--) {
if (s.charAt(j) == s.charAt(i))
count++;
if (count > maxCount){
maxCount = count;
maxMode = i;
}
}
}
System.out.println(s.charAt(maxMode)+" = largest mode");
return maxMode;
}
String removeDup() {
getMode();
int i;
int j;
String rdup = "";
for (i = 0; i< s.length(); i++) {
int count = 1;
for (j = 0; j < rdup.length(); j++) {
if (s.charAt(i) == s.charAt(j)){
count++;
}
}
if (count == 1){
rdup += s.charAt(i);
}
}
System.out.print(rdup);
System.out.println();
return rdup;
}
}
public static void main (String[] args) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
MyStrings setS = new MyStrings();
String s;
System.out.print("Enter string:");
s = in.nextLine();
setS.setMyStrings(s);
setS.getMode();
setS.removeDup();
}
}

Try this method...should work fine!
String removeDup()
{
getMode();
int i;
int j;
String rdup = "";
for (i = 0; i< s.length(); i++) {
int count = 1;
for (j = i+1; j < s.length(); j++) {
if (s.charAt(i) == s.charAt(j)) {
count++;
}
}
if (count == 1){
rdup += s.charAt(i);
}
}
// System.out.print(rdup);
System.out.println();
return rdup;
}

Welcome to StackOverflow!
You're calling getMode() both outside and inside of removeDup(), which is why it's printing it twice.
In order to remove all duplicates, you'll have to call removeDup() over and over until all the duplicates are gone from your string. Right now you're only calling it once.
How might you do that? Think about how you're detecting duplicates, and use that as the end condition for a while loop or similar.
Happy coding!

Shouldn't this be an easier way? Also, i'm still learning.
import java.util.*;
public class First {
public static void main(String arg[])
{
Scanner sc= new Scanner(System.in);
StringBuilder s=new StringBuilder(sc.nextLine());
//String s=new String();
for(int i=0;i<s.length();i++){
String a=s.substring(i, i+1);
while(s.indexOf(a)!=s.lastIndexOf(a)){s.deleteCharAt(s.lastIndexOf(a));}
}
System.out.println(s.toString());
}
}

You can do this:
public static void main(String[] args) {
String str = new String("PINEAPPLE");
Set <Character> letters = new <Character>HashSet();
for (int i = 0; i < str.length(); i++) {
letters.add(str.charAt(i));
}
System.out.println(letters);
}

I think an optimized version which supports ASCII codes can be like this:
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(removeDups("*PqQpa abbBBaaAAzzK zUyz112235KKIIppP!!QpP^^*Www5W38".toCharArray()));
}
public static String removeDups(char []input){
long ocr1=0l,ocr2=0l,ocr3=0;
int index=0;
for(int i=0;i<input.length;i++){
int val=input[i]-(char)0;
long ocr=val<126?val<63?ocr1:ocr2:ocr3;
if((ocr& (1l<<val))==0){//not duplicate
input[index]=input[i];
index++;
}
if(val<63)
ocr1|=(1l<<val);
else if(val<126)
ocr2|=(1l<<val);
else
ocr3|=(1l<<val);
}
return new String(input,0,index);
}
please keep in mind that each of orc(s) represent a mapping of a range of ASCII characters and each java long variable can grow as big as (2^63) and since we have 128 characters in ASCII so we need three ocr(s) which basically maps the occurrences of the character to a long number.
ocr1: (char)0 to (char)62
ocr2: (char)63 to (char)125
ocr3: (char)126 to (char)128
Now if a duplicate was found the
(ocr& (1l<<val))
will be greater than zero and we skip that char and finally we can create a new string with the size of index which shows last non duplicate items index.
You can define more orc(s) and support other character-sets if you want.

Can use HashSet as well as normal for loops:
public class RemoveDupliBuffer
{
public static String checkDuplicateNoHash(String myStr)
{
if(myStr == null)
return null;
if(myStr.length() <= 1)
return myStr;
char[] myStrChar = myStr.toCharArray();
HashSet myHash = new HashSet(myStrChar.length);
myStr = "";
for(int i=0; i < myStrChar.length ; i++)
{
if(! myHash.add(myStrChar[i]))
{
}else{
myStr += myStrChar[i];
}
}
return myStr;
}
public static String checkDuplicateNo(String myStr)
{
// null check
if (myStr == null)
return null;
if (myStr.length() <= 1)
return myStr;
char[] myChar = myStr.toCharArray();
myStr = "";
int tail = 0;
int j = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < myChar.length; i++)
{
for (j = 0; j < tail; j++)
{
if (myChar[i] == myChar[j])
{
break;
}
}
if (j == tail)
{
myStr += myChar[i];
tail++;
}
}
return myStr;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
String myStr = "This is your String";
myStr = checkDuplicateNo(myStr);
System.out.println(myStr);
}

Try this simple answer- works well for simple character string accepted as user input:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class string_duplicate_char {
String final_string = "";
public void inputString() {
//accept string input from user
Scanner user_input = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Enter a String to remove duplicate Characters : \t");
String input = user_input.next();
user_input.close();
//convert string to char array
char[] StringArray = input.toCharArray();
int StringArray_length = StringArray.length;
if (StringArray_length < 2) {
System.out.println("\nThe string with no duplicates is: "
+ StringArray[1] + "\n");
} else {
//iterate over all elements in the array
for (int i = 0; i < StringArray_length; i++) {
for (int j = i + 1; j < StringArray_length; j++) {
if (StringArray[i] == StringArray[j]) {
int temp = j;//set duplicate element index
//delete the duplicate element by copying the adjacent elements by one place
for (int k = temp; k < StringArray_length - 1; k++) {
StringArray[k] = StringArray[k + 1];
}
j++;
StringArray_length--;//reduce char array length
}
}
}
}
System.out.println("\nThe string with no duplicates is: \t");
//print the resultant string with no duplicates
for (int x = 0; x < StringArray_length; x++) {
String temp= new StringBuilder().append(StringArray[x]).toString();
final_string=final_string+temp;
}
System.out.println(final_string);
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
string_duplicate_char object = new string_duplicate_char();
object.inputString();
}
}

Another easy solution to clip the duplicate elements in a string using HashSet and ArrayList :
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class sample_work {
public static void main(String args[]) {
String input = "";
System.out.println("Enter string to remove duplicates: \t");
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
input = in.next();

your can use this simple code and understand how to remove duplicates values from string.I think this is the simplest way to understand this problem.
class RemoveDup
{
static int l;
public String dup(String str)
{
l=str.length();
System.out.println("length"+l);
char[] c=str.toCharArray();
for(int i=0;i<l;i++)
{
for(int j=0;j<l;j++)
{
if(i!=j)
{
if(c[i]==c[j])
{
l--;
for(int k=j;k<l;k++)
{
c[k]=c[k+1];
}
j--;
}
}
}
}
System.out.println("after concatination lenght:"+l);
StringBuilder sd=new StringBuilder();
for(int i=0;i<l;i++)
{
sd.append(c[i]);
}
str=sd.toString();
return str;
}
public static void main(String[] ar)
{
RemoveDup obj=new RemoveDup();
Scanner sc=new Scanner(System.in);
String st,t;
System.out.println("enter name:");
st=sc.nextLine();
sc.close();
t=obj.dup(st);
System.out.println(t);
}
}

i wrote this program. Am using 2 char arrays instead. You can define the number of duplicate chars you want to eliminate from the original string and also shows the number of occurances of each character in the string.
public String removeMultipleOcuranceOfChar(String string, int numberOfChars){
char[] word1 = string.toCharArray();
char[] word2 = string.toCharArray();
int count=0;
StringBuilder builderNoDups = new StringBuilder();
StringBuilder builderDups = new StringBuilder();
for(char x: word1){
for(char y : word2){
if (x==y){
count++;
}//end if
}//end inner loop
System.out.println(x + " occurance: " + count );
if (count ==numberOfChars){
builderNoDups.append(x);
}else{
builderDups.append(x);
}//end if else
count = 0;
}//end outer loop
return String.format("Number of identical chars to be in or out of input string: "
+ "%d\nOriginal word: %s\nWith only %d identical chars: %s\n"
+ "without %d identical chars: %s",
numberOfChars,string,numberOfChars, builderNoDups.toString(),numberOfChars,builderDups.toString());
}

Try this simple solution for REMOVING DUPLICATE CHARACTERS/LETTERS FROM GIVEN STRING
import java.util.Scanner;
public class RemoveDuplicateLetters {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner scn=new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("enter a String:");
String s=scn.nextLine();
String ans="";
while(s.length()>0)
{
char ch = s.charAt(0);
ans+= ch;
s = s.replace(ch+"",""); //Replacing all occurrence of the current character by a spaces
}
System.out.println("after removing all duplicate letters:"+ans);
}
}

In Java 8 we can do that using
private void removeduplicatecharactersfromstring() {
String myString = "aabcd eeffff ghjkjkl";
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
Arrays.asList(myString.split(" "))
.forEach(s -> {
builder.append(Stream.of(s.split(""))
.distinct().collect(Collectors.joining()).concat(" "));
});
System.out.println(builder); // abcd ef ghjkl
}
