Help me. i am new to java.

my question is
how do i create a size K of array, which there are two variable in side it?
the following example is in c
struct rr
int a;
int b;
rr c[k];
how do i open a file?
how do i read the data in the file to that array?
suppose that there are two numbers per line.

the doc does not show what i want
so can any one give me an example?
thxlets say you want an array of 5 of them
class rr {
   int a, b;
class RRarray{
   int k = 5;
   rr array[] = new rr[k];

    So plz can any one help me in that?
    Thanks

    But I don't know how to handel the code, I didn't
    study JSP or Java. I'm trying to learn it by doing
    this, so please can you write the code for me in jsp
    and how to put it in html then , how to do the
    connection to my database?Iam sorry to disappoint you, but no.
    If you are new to java and jsp taking up such a task to learn it is not ideal, nor
    viable. I would suggest you learn the basics of the language first, then the basics
    of jsp, then some jdbc and finally graduate to the example in question. There are
    excellent tutorials avbl for all on the net.
    Maybe someone else would even post the code here, but suggest you dont
    waste time waiting on it.
    All the best.
    Cheers,
    ram.

  • Pls help, i m totally new to java

    Hi everyone, i m new to java, i have created a page with a textfield and two buttons, can someone tell me how to pass the text that i input in the text field into my database (mysql) when i click the add button (id:addButton) and then how to retrieve a data from a column of my database when i click the show button (id:showButton)?
    my table name is todolist3 and the column in my database is item.
    Thank you very much!!!

    if u are completly new to java, u must at least read some tutorials about java and later, the tutorial of Java Studio Creator, and if u have time, something about jsp.
    i dont want to be rude, but listen my advice, if u want to make your "example" to work, u need to copy the mysql conector into core, this is inside of creator, create a data source to bind your project to mysql table, and the best part, send and receive data from your mysql database.
    any doubt just post again

  • Please help! I am new with Java

    I wrote a program of this problem but it won't run. I don't know why please help me. Thank you very much and here the problem: Define a Java class named NumberCruncher that has a single double value as its only instance variable. Then define methods that perform the following operations on its number: get, double, triple, square, cube. Thanks for reading my problem.

  • How can I open help file (HTML or .chm) from Java Web Start (new to JAVA)

    Hi All,
    Im trying to open the help file of my application.
    When trying to access the help file from the GUI (pressing F1 for launching the help file), I'm geting the an error, something like:
    "Can't show help URL: jar:file:C:\Documents and Settings\%USER%\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\javaws\cache\http\Dlocalhost\P7001\DMwebstart\RMjar-name!/com/resources/helpFiles/MyHelpFile.html"
    It seems that the file which is packed in a jar, was downloaded to the Java Web Start cache directory:
    C:\Documents and Settings\%USER%\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\javaws\cache\http\Dlocalhost\P7001\DMwebstart
    The code which is activated when launching the help file is:
    try
                ResourceBundle resourceBundle = DoubleResourceBundle.getBundle("Resource", "ResourceImpl");
                RuntimeUtil.launchFile(new File(resourceBundle.getString("help.file")));
            } catch (IOException e)
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                e.printStackTrace();
            }where the property "help.file" is in some property file in the resource bundle named "Resource", and looks like this :
    help.file="com/trax/docs/help/global/MyHelpFile.html"
    The function "RuntimeUtil.launchFile" knows how to launch any file in its default application, and indeed it does launches the html, when giving it an absolute path to the file on my PC, as "C:\Helpfiles\MyHelpFile.html" as such:
    RuntimeUtil.launchFile("C:\Helpfiles\MyHelpFile.html");My question is :
    The application is going to be deployed on a Customer PC. How can I access the html file from the code, with a relative path and not its absolute path on the customer pc, which I can't know?
    I found these restrictions regarding web start:
    (copied from "http://rachel.sourceforge.net/"):
    *Rule 1: Java Archives only. No loose files.* All your resources have to be packaged in Java Archives (jar) if you want to have
    them delivered to the user's machine and kept up-to-date automatically by Java Web Start.
    *Rule 2: No file paths.* You can't use absolute or relative file paths to locate your
    jars holding your resources (e.g. <code>jar:file:///c:/java/jws/.cache/resources.jar</code>).
    Absolute file paths won't work because you never know where Java Web Start
    will put your jar on the user's machine. Relative file paths won't work because Java Web Start
    mangles the names of your jars (e.g. <code>venus.jar</code> becomes <code>RMvenus.jar</code>)
    and every JNLP client implementation has the right to mangle your names
    in a different way and you, therefore, can't predict the name with
    which your jar will be rechristend and end up on the user's machine in
    the application cache.Seems complex or impossible, to perform a simple task like opening a file.
    Please advise (I'm new to Java and Web Start).
    BTW, I'm working with IntelliJ IDEA 5.0.
    Thanks,
    Zedik.

  • New to Java and need help with this program..please!

    I'd really appreciate any helpful comments about this program assignment that I have to turn in a week from Friday. I'm taking a class one night a week and completely new to Java. I'd ask my professor for help, but we can't call him during the week and he never answers e-mails. He didn't tell us how to call from other classes yet, and I just can't get the darn thing to do what I want it to do!
    The assignment requirements are:
    1. Change a card game application that draws two cards
    and the higher card wins, to a Blackjack application
    2. Include a new class called Hand
    3. The Hand class should record the number of draws
    4. The application should prompt for a number of draws
    5. The game is played against the Dealer
    6. The dealer always draws a card if the dealer's hand total is <= 17
    7. Prompt the player after each hand if he wants to quit
    8. Display the total games won by the dealer and total and the total games wond by the player after each hand
    9. Display all of the dealer's and player's cards at the
    end of each hand
    10. Player has the option of drawing an additional card after the first two cards
    11. The Ace can have a value of 11 or 1
    (Even though it's not called for in the requirements, I would like to be able to let the Ace have a value of 1 or an 11)
    The following is my code with some comments about a few things that are driving me nuts:
    import java.util.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.text.*;
    public class CardDeck
    public CardDeck()
    deck = new Card[52];
    fill();
    shuffle();
    public void fill()
    int i;
    int j;
    for (i = 1; i <= 13; i++)
    for (j = 1; j <= 4; j++)
    deck[4 * (i - 1) + j - 1] = new Card(i, j);
    cards = 52;
    public void shuffle()
    int next;

    Thank you so much for offering to help me with this Jamie! When I tried to call change value using:
    Card dealer = (d.changeValue());
    I get an error message saying:
    Incompatible types found: int
    required: Card
    I had my weekly class last night and the professor cleared up a few things for me, but I've not had time to make all of the necessary changes. I did find out how toString worked, so that's one question out of the way, and he gave us a lot of information for adding another class to generate random numbers.
    Again, thank you so much. I really want to learn this but I'm feeling so stupid right now. Any help you can give me about the above error message would be appreciated.

  • PLz Help New To Java

    Hey im brand new to java and i just downloaded and installed jdk-1_5_0_01-windows-i586-p now im tryin to set up the PATH permanently but i have no clue how to i went to the install notes and typed in C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_<windows>\bin in the command.com but everytime i do it says access is denied. i have no clue how to set up the path permanently beside what i tried plz help!!!

    You didn't which OS you are running, but it's fairly similar for all windows.
    Start->settings->control panel->system->advanced->environment variables
    Go to System variables, click on path, click edit button and add a semicolon and the path at the end. DO NOT REPLACE EVERYTHING THAT'S THERE NOW.
    I don't have 1.5 installed on this computer, but I'm willing to bet the real path doesn't have '<windows>' in it. Use Windows Explorer to find out where java.exe actually exists on the hard disk and use that path

  • Im new to java and hope somebody can help me with my question

    Hi!
    Im quite new to java and I just have some simple questions..
    can someone please tell what kinds of error are considered as language violation for java? where can I find more info about these errors?
    can someone give me a simple example on a kind of error that cannot be caught in both compilation and runtime? I hope someone can help me out. Thanks in advance!!

    Im just asking about errors that might go against the language definition but cant be detected.. If it "goes against the language defintion," it will be detected by the compiler. That's half of the compiler's job is to tell you what you've done that violates the language spec.
    because it confuses me when they say that such errors might occur so I just want to know what might these errors be.. sorry for that..Who's "they"? What exactly* did "they" say about "such errors"? It sounds to me like you're just confused, and you think there's something mysterious and inexplicable going on but you don't know what and don't even know what you're asking.
    I would suggest not worrying about hypothetical problems that you can't even put into words and focussing on learning Java. Along the way, if you encounter real, specific, actual problems, ask about them, and you'll probably get answers about the problems themselves and the language or theory behind them.

  • Hi, i'm new to java. need help setting the path in win XP

    hi all,
    i'm new to java technology. i've just downloaded the JDK and ran my first java program (hello world). i love it. java's gr8. i need help. i run win XP and how can i setup the path sothat i can execute my programs from the root dir??? any help in this direction will be greatly appreciated. please email me @ [email protected]
    Best regards
    Mrinal

    Go to Start menu and select Control Panel. In the Control Panel, double click on System. In the System dialogue, choose the Advanced tab. Then click on Environmental Variables. Select Path and Edit. Put ;c:\j2sdk1.4.0\bin at the end of the Path (or c:\j2sdk1.4.0\bin;) at the start of the Path. That's it.

    I can see from the code that the GUI was generated by a tool. Since you're new to Java programming, I'd recommend ditching the tool and writing everything by hand, otherwise you're not learning much. It's just like when you're learning proofs in Maths, where you start with first principles before making use of the proofs on their own.
    Also, it'll help tremendously if you could spend some time going through the Java Tutorial (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/). It's free, and I find it very useful.
