Help needed to write algorithm to find Direction given lat/lon

Hello, i need an algorithm to find out the direction being traveled given the starting and ending lat/lon decimal coordinates. Anybody have any clues how to do it? or where i can find one to just plug into my program? thanks for your help
public String getDirection(double prevLat, double prevLon, double newLat, double newLon) {
String direction;
return direction;
}

Perhaps this helps:
http://www.cssd.ab.ca/tech/social/latitude/index.html
It will help you learn the meaning of lat/long-coords. I think you will end up with somthing like this:
if ( prevLat < newLat) {
   //we are travelling north
else {
   // we are travelling south
if (prevLong < newLong) {
   //we are travelling east?
else {
   //we are travelling west
}This could be wrong, since there is a west-long and an east-long..
Anyhow, hope this gets you on your way.
ps: is this a class-assignment??

Help needed in writting Customer exit - ABAP Code

Hi Friends,
I have a scenario in one of the query and need to write a customer exit for the same. Here is the scenario:
I am using one input variable XXX to get input from user which feeds value to one of the charateristic lets say "CHAR1" in query. I have one more characteristic "CHAR2" which has to get the value from the same variable XXX. This is not allowed in BI7.0 as the variable is Hierarchy Node type. It gives error that "Variable XXX is used for two different characteristics."
So i need to create one more vaiable YYY which will get the value from XXX and then YYY will feed value to CHAR2. I would appreciate if some one could tell me step by step how to write customer exit and give me the piece of ABAP code i need to write in my case.
Your help will be appreciated in terms of points.
Thanks,
manmit

Hi Arun,
1. What should CHAR2 take - Hierarchy node variable or something else ?
--> CHAR2 is a simple charateristic
2. In your scenario - why have CHAR1 and CHAR2 ? why not have the user enter values against CHAR2 ??
--> We dont want user to enter two input as the input values for both Chars are same.
3. Did you try using a replacement path variable with the CHAR2 variable taking values from Variable on CHAR1 ?
--> In BI7.0 replacement path variable only take values from Query results. So not able to do the same.
Thanks

Help needed to write a dialog program

Hello ABAP Gurus,
I am very much new to ABAP Programming.
Can anybody help me to write a simple Dialog Program ??
I have a database table.
I have created a screen with screen painter, and kept some input fields & a push button in it.
I want to fill the database table with the data entered into the fields on the screen.
When the user enters the data and presses the PUSH BUTTON then that data record should be stored into the Database table.
So what kinda code I have to write in PAI (Process After Input), to achieve this functionality ??
The help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Ravi
Edited by: Ravi Kiran on Oct 28, 2009 2:17 PM

It's easy:
In PAI you have do an insert into a database table, following the steps:
1.on PAI create a module: for exemple Zwrite_table.
2. inside Zwrite_table code as follow:
move var1 to wa_table-var1.
move var2 to wa_table-var2.
move var3 to wa_table-var3. etc etc
insert table ztable from wa_table.
P.s. ztable is a database table.
wa_table is a structure that have the same structure of ztable.
var1 var2 var3 etc is a variable inside your dynpro.

ok, I think I started to understand the functions. But I still can't figured out
CONTEXT
We are scanning pages and images from different newspaper. All the .tif, .jpg are on DVDs.
I'm trying to build a search page who will allow for all DVDs and All images name related to the search result. Let say I search for:

Is that exact?
Based on this example,
[http://plsql-tutorial.com/plsql-functions.htm|http://plsql-tutorial.com/plsql-functions.htm]
I would write something like:

Help Needed to Write Nim Game

I need help in writing the Nim game. I have the program written already for the user to select if they want to go first or the computer and how many stones the user wants to start with. The problem I am having is writing a loop that recognizes which player is to go first and executes the play of taking stones. Any help would be appreciated.

Perhaps there could be a boolean firstPlayerMove. Then, when the loop starts, if that is true then the first player enters the stones, otherwise second player. At the end of every time the loop is executed firstPlayerMove should equal "!firstPlayerMove."

Hi MarkSubedi,
Your requirement has been extracted and formatted as below, correct me if there's anything wrong.
I want to see min first print date on last column. For instance Wild Attire INc,there should be 5/30/2014. And 2013/11/13 for all records belongs to clear vision optical integration name.If only one record then keep same like Qball 12/1/2014.
Based on my understanding, the below code can help to achieve your requirement.

CROSS APPLY (SELECT [Min First Print Date] AS [Qball Min First Print Date] FROM CTE WHERE [Integration Name]=N'Qball') AS T
ORDER BY CNT,[Integration Name]
In your case, the data seems from the the statement query in your post. If the statement is fine, the below query can be ready to use.
;WITH DataSrc AS
SELECT ISNULL(RQPPrintAmountQpYTD,0)+ISNULL(VLQPPrintAmountQpYTD,0) as [Qualified Volume 2014],isnull(PrintamountallYtd,0)+ISNULL(VLQPPrintamountALLYTD,0) as [Total Volume 2014], integration_id as [Integration ID], integration_name as [Integration Name], left([First Print Date],10) as [First Print Date] from #Po
CTE AS
SELECT [Integration Name],MIN([First Print Date]) [Min First Print Date],COUNT(1) cnt FROM DataSrc GROUP BY [Integration Name]
SELECT [Integration Name],CASE WHEN CNT=1 THEN T.[Qball Min First Print Date] ELSE [Min First Print Date] END [Min First Print Date] FROM CTE
CROSS APPLY (SELECT [Min First Print Date] AS [Qball Min First Print Date] FROM CTE WHERE [Integration Name]=N'Qball') AS T
ORDER BY CNT,[Integration Name]
By the way, there're some columns don't make any sense if what you'd like is just the min(First Print Date), you can remove them.
If you have any question, feel free to let me know.

Help needed with recursion algorithm..

I can't seems to figure out which recursion method to use, if anyone can give me some advice, pls do..
Input: There is a row of n elecments with the initial value of 1.
Output: Change all the 1s to 0s using the following conditions.
-The first element can change from 1 to 0, and 0 to 1 at any time (without conditions).
-While the rest of the elements can only be changed to 0 when the preceeding element is 1 and all other elements are 0.
For example, when n = 3
1 1 1 - initial state of all elements
0 1 1 - change first element to 0 w/o condition
0 1 0 - change third element to 0 as only second element is 1 and rest are 0
1 1 0 - change first element to 1 w/0 condition
1 0 0 - change second element to 0 as only first element is 1 and rest are 0
0 0 0 - change first element to 0 w/o condition
I really can't think of a recursive method to work this out, and am desperate to know the answer. Can anyone please help?

Sorry about it, you can change the rest of the bit back to 1 but provided that the preceeding bit is also 1.
and that makes the question:
Input: There is a row of n elecments with the initial value of 1.
Output: Change all the 1s to 0s using the following conditions.
-The first element can change from 1 to 0, and 0 to 1 at any time (without conditions).
-While the rest of the elements can only be changed to 0 or 1 when the preceeding element is 1 and all other elements are 0.
For example, when n = 3
1 1 1 - initial state of all elements
0 1 1 - change first element to 0 w/o condition
0 1 0 - change third element to 0 as only second element is 1 and rest are 0
1 1 0 - change first element to 1 w/0 condition
1 0 0 - change second element to 0 as only first element is 1 and rest are 0
0 0 0 - change first element to 0 w/o condition
I'll check my the person who sets the question and get back to you guys as soon as possible. Thanks a lot for helping me out.

Help needed with application: "could not find the main class"

I am pretty new to java and am trying to figure out applications a bit now. The one im working on does run within my editor, but when i "test" it or try to run it from within a .jar file it returns a "could not find the main class" error.
I have a code similar to this:
public class user{
public static void main(String[] args){
new user();
public user{
Does this have to do with it? I've been trying to get this right for a couple of days now, I just wanna be able to run it (on either my pc or another) without starting the Editor.
Looking forward to receiving an answer..

It sounds like you are missing the Main-Class attribute in your manifest file. Create a file 'manifest.mf' with the following line 'Main-Class: user'
Then include that manifest in your jar:
'jar -cfm user.jar manifest.mf user.class'
Then run the jar: 'java -jar user.jar'

Need to write object to database but can't find useful examples

Hi,
Within one servlet I need to write an Attributes object to a database to be retrieved sometime later by a second servlet. All the examples of serialization code that I can find are for writing to serial or file streams. What I need is to be able to be able to write the Attributes object to a MySQL database. How do I get it into a form that I can write to the database and how do I once again turn in back into an object? I've not been able to answer those question from the examples I've found so far.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
-- Rob

There are at least two choices.
1. Serialize to a ByteArrayOutputStream, base-64-encode that data, and save as a string in the database.
2. Serialize directly to a database blob.
