They might run it once, to make sure it does what it is suppossed to do, then simply turn it in. In the process, they haven't learned a thing. Only a very small fraction of posters will study the posted code to figure it out, as evidenced by the fact, that if the code is not 100% cut-n-paste capable for their assignment, they will come back and complain that this or that does not work, or was not done.

This will be good learning for the OP, why don't you point out what is done badly.
Did you mean using
now.add(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, daysToAdd);
instead of
now.set(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH, now.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)+daysToAdd);?
That is the main crux of it, yes, but homework or not, you should actually attempt to catch and handle the exceptions, rather than simply declaring "throws Exception". Handling exceptions in the homework assignments will cause that to become a habit and you will actually do it correctly without thinking about it. Just like constantly declaring "throws Exception" in your homework will also make that a habit, and guarnatee that you will someday also do that when it counts, thereby causing all sorts of problems (usually for coworkers).
if its something else then please do let us know.
I can also learn how to do it good :)

  • How to get the total time spent by a Portal User for a given Date?

    Hello,
    We need to develop a Daily Audit Track Report that displays
    the Users logged into our System for a given day and the total login duration in Hours( should include all the
    Login-Logouts of a given date).
    While Portal30_SSO.WWSSO_AUDIT_LOG_TABLE$ can help me get the Users login to Portal for a day, there is no Login/Logout periods in it.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Madhav

    You may want to consult with the view WWLOG_ACTIVITY_LOGS. Not sure how your environment is configured, but ours includes two WWLOG_ACTIVITY_LOG tables (1 & 2). These tables purge themselves based on your configuration. In other words, Portal will log activity in WWLOG_ACTIVITY_LOG1$ for a certain period of time, then switch to WWLOG_ACTIVITY_LOG2$ while purging the first one. You can specify the purge timetable in the Adminster tab of the Admin page (under Global Settings). If you just key on just 1 log table, you're logs may someday go blank.
    The actions used are 'login' and 'logout'. You can link the actions using the key_1 and key_2 columns of the view. From our current experience, Portal does not account for users that simply close the browser. In other words, we have not been able to get a log event for the action 'logout' for the same key_2 value if someone does this.

  • How to get the fixed result in a DES/CBC mode with fixed input data and fix

    How to get the fixed result in a DES/CBC mode with fixed input data and fixed key. Below is my program , I tried to get the checksum of the DESInputData with the DESKeyData, but each time the result is different.
    below is my code:
    byte[] DESKeyData = {(byte)0x01 ,(byte)0x01 ,(byte)0x01 ,(byte)0x01, (byte)0x01 ,(byte)0x01 ,(byte)0x01 ,(byte)0x01 };
    byte[] DESInputData = {(byte)0x31 ,(byte)0x31 ,(byte)0x31 ,(byte)0x31,(byte)0x31 ,(byte)0x31 ,(byte)0x31 ,(byte)0x31 };
    SecretKeySpec skey = new SecretKeySpec( DESKeyData, "DES" );
    Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("DES/CBC/NoPadding");
    cipher.init( Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, skey );
    byte[] result = cipher.doFinal( DESInputData );

    Use class javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec to specify IV for CBC mode cipher:
    // Create CBC-mode triple-DES cipher.
    Cipher c = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/CBC/PKCS5Padding");
    // Specify IV.
    IvParameterSpec iv = new IvParameterSpec(new byte[] { (byte)0x01, (byte)0x23, (byte)0x45, (byte)0x67, (byte)0x89, (byte)0xAB, (byte)0xCD, (byte)0xEF });
    // Initialize cipher with proper IV.
    c.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, yourKey, iv);
    // Encrypt and decrypt should work ok now.
    For more info about cryptography, search the Internet for IntroToCrypto.pdf from mr. Phil Zimmerman. This document is also part of PGP (http://www.pgp.com).
    An excellent book is 'Applied Cryptography' from Bruce Schneier (http://www.counterpane.com/applied.html).

  • How to get NEXT free NUMBER for EXTERNALLY assigned RANGEs - SNUM, MD91 ?

    Hi Experts,
    I know that, with the FM - NUMBER_GET_NEXT_V1, I can get the next # for most document #s.
    But, this FM is ONLY applicable to INTERNAL NUMBER RANGE.
    1 - But., am working with EXTERNAL NUMBER RANGE, so looking forward for a FM/BAPI, which gives me next free # for use.
    2 - If nothing is there, How to get it done? Is directly grabbing the latest # from the table/data base?
    3 - Any other ideas?
    thanq

    For an example
    Look at Attributes for SAP function ' L_TO_CONFIRM_SU' . Observe the radio button 'REmote-enabled function module - 2nd one.
    Then you can see under source code it calls other SAP FMs. This is where you call the SAP FM you found.
    A remote enabled fm requires a Logical destination when called from a program- you might already know that.

  • Any FM to get count of each week day for the given date range

    Hi guys,
    Any FM to get count of each week day for the given date range?
    eg: If i give 14/07/2008 to 14/08/2008
    I need to find how many Mondays, tuesdays...sundays in this given date range.
    If not single FM is available, any logic that gives above result is also appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Vinod.

    hi Vinod,
    this is not a full solution, I just give you a basic idea:
    DATA : lv_start TYPE sy-datum VALUE '20080714',
           lv_end   TYPE sy-datum VALUE '20080814'.
    WHILE lv_start LE lv_end.
      CALL FUNCTION 'FTR_DAY_GET_TEXT'
        EXPORTING
          pi_date = lv_start.
    * IMPORTING
    *   PE_DAY_TEXT1       =
    *   PE_DAY_TEXT2       =
    *   PE_DAY             =
    * you have to summarize the output here somehow...
      lv_start = lv_start + 1.
    ENDWHILE.
    hope this helps

  • How to know the day of a given date?

    Hello Experts,
    Is there any function module that can give the day of a given date? For example, If
    I put in 10/30/2007, it will give me Tuesday. Hope you can help me guys.Thank you and take care!

    Hi
    Yes, DATE_COMPUTE_DAY
    Sample code:
      clear: hold_day_of_week.
      CALL FUNCTION 'DATE_COMPUTE_DAY'
           EXPORTING
                DATE = workdate
           IMPORTING
                DAY  = day_of_week_num
           EXCEPTIONS
                OTHERS  = 8.
      CASE day_of_week_num.
        WHEN 1.
          hold_day_of_week = 'Monday'.
        WHEN 2.
          hold_day_of_week = 'Tuesday'.
        WHEN 3.
          hold_day_of_week = 'Wednesday'.
        WHEN 4.
          hold_day_of_week = 'Thursday'.
        WHEN 5.
          hold_day_of_week = 'Friday'.
        WHEN 6.
          hold_day_of_week = 'Saturday'.
        WHEN 7.
          hold_day_of_week = 'Sunday'.
        WHEN OTHERS.
          hold_day_of_week = 'invalid'.
      ENDCASE.
    or 
    You can use  DATE_COMPUTE_DAY to get the day number of the week (for example, today gives 5)
    then use WEEKDAY_GET which returns an itab with seven entries (one for each day of the week.)
    You enter in this itab and get the field langt to get the day name.

  • How to get the number of days between 2 given dates

    Hi all,
    How can I find the number of days between any 2 given dates.
    Thanks

    Hi
    Here's a dirty way:
    If you've got two Date objects in Java, call getTime() on each one (which gives you a value in milliseconds), then subtract the two millisecond values, and divide the result by the number of milliseconds in a day (24 * 60 * 60 * 1000). There's more `elegant' ways to do this, but this method only requires one line of Java.
    Best wishes

  • How to get back all lost photos after updating the iOS8?

    When I updated my IOS8 I thought I lost my photos, so I have restored my iPhone but after restoring I have discovered that I lost all my photos, please advise how can get/ retrieve all the lost photos specially since I didn't do backup?

    If you backed up to iCloud, you might be able to choose from more than one backup. Each backup made in iTunes on your computer usually replaces the older one, except if you use a backup to restore from. Go to iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices and check if there are more backups listed, which you can then use to restore.
    Check these articles about backups:
    Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    Choosing an iOS backup method (Should I use iTunes or iCloud to back up my iOS device?)

  • How to get iPhoto back in order after recall? Is rebuilding your photo-library dangerous?

    I recently had my iMac recalled, and when I got it back, about a quarter of my 62,000 photos only show the thumbnail vies. When I try to enter them to edit them, I get a black exclamtion point within a white circle and no access. I called support and did the 6 steps to rebuild. No results so far.
    My back-up is questionable beucase as the comupter hard-drive was dying, it stopping backing up the exteral hard-drive 4 months prior to the actual recall when they replaced my hard-drive.
    SO . . . I spent 20 hours putting every **** photo on DVD's before the recall to make sure I didn't lose them. Now I can reload the photos from the DVD's and the photos are all there and normal. However it is time consuming.
    THE QUESTION IS - SHOULD I DO THE MAJOR REBUILD WITH APPLE SUPPORT, OR CONTINUE TO RELOAD FROM MY DVD'S?

    Thanks OT,
    I did the list of repairs APPLE support gave me, but I do not believe it included thte Option+Command launch. Is that a full rebuild that risking losing my organization (books, slideshows, etc)?
    I do have two external hard drives which I alternate every few months in case of fire, and which are connected (one at a time) with time machine. Apparently during the internal hard drive failure I missed that the external backups stopped working, and the faulty hard drive would not let me back up when I tried before the recall. NOW my backup works, but it is backing up the faulty data! If I use the old back up I lose 4 months of data, if I use the new I have the fautly data. I think I am back to reloading with the DVD's I made. By the way, I made them becuase I had a computer AND it's external hard drive fail beyond repair 4 years ago. At that time I was able to rebuild my photo library from discs becuase I had made a CD or DVD of every project as I downloaded it from the camera. Heres to backing yourself up in multiply ways!
    Oh my.
