Need help writing small program!

Hi. I'm learning Java programming, and I need help writing a small program. Please someone help me.
Directions:
Create a program called CerealCompare using an if-then-else structure that obtains the price and number of ounces in a box for two boxes of cereal. The program should then output which box costs less per ounce.

class CerealCompare {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// your code goes here
}Hope that helps.
P.S. Java does not have an if-then-else statement.

Need help writing host program using LabView.

Need help writing host program using LabView.
Hello,
I'm designing a HID device, and I want to write a host program using National Instrument's LabView. NI doesn't have any software support for USB, so I'm trying to write a few C dll files and link them to Call Library Functions. NI has some documentation on how to do this, but it's not exactly easy reading.
I've written a few C console programs (running Win 2K) using the PC host software example for a HID device from John Hyde's book "USB by design", and they run ok. From Hyde's example program, I've written a few functions that use a few API functions each. This makes the main program more streamlined. The functions are; GetHIDPath, OpenHID, GetHIDInfo, Writ
eHID, ReadHIC, and CloseHID. As I mentioned, my main program runs well with these functions.
My strategy is to make dll files from these functions and load them into LabView Call Library Functions. However, I'm having a number of subtle problems in trying to do this. The big problem I'm having now are build errors when I try to build to a dll.
I'm writing this post for a few reasons. First, I'm wondering if there are any LabView programmers who have already written USB HID host programs, and if they could give me some advice. Or, I would be grateful if a LabView or Visual C programmer could help me work out the programming problems that I'm having with my current program. If I get this LabView program working I would be happy to share it. I'm also wondering if there might already be any USB IHD LabView that I could download.
Any help would be appreciated.

Need help writing Java program

I am a student conducting research as to the tolerance of users to a user interface. My idea is to take the existing tetris game but implement errors into it, so that on occasion the piece will not move in the direction you want it to. Also In the program there will need to be an introduction screen, 3 levels which end when you recieve a certain amount of points, a data table, for my use which collects information about time between moves, total time, par time( how long it would take if no errors occured), and levels completed. Also if a user fails to pass the level, at what point did they fail. The data will need to be organized in a logical order and finally there will need to be a way for me to retrieve the data. I already have the existing tetris code and I need to add to it, so if anyone could help me as I have no programming knowledge and I need this done as soon as possible, please contact me at [email protected] and I will be willing to pay for your time.
Thanks,

Need Help Writing Server side to submit form via API

Hey
I need help writing a serverside application to submit
information via API to a separate server.
I have a client that uses constant contact for email
campaigns. We want to add to her website a form taht submits the
information needed to subscribe to her email list, to constant
contact via API.
FORM.asp :: (i got this one under control)
name
email
and submits to serverside.asp
SERVERSIDE.ASP
In serverside.asp i need to have
the API URL
(https://api.constantcontact.com/0.1/API_AddSiteVisitor.jsp)
username (of the constant contact account)
password (of the constant contact account)
name (submited from form.asp)
email (submitted from form.asp)
redirect URL (confirm.asp)
Can anyone help get me going in the right direction?
i have tried several things i found on the net and just cant
get anyone to work correctly.
One main issue i keep having is that if i get it to submit to
the API url correctly - i get a success code, it doesnt redirect to
the page i am trying to redirect to.
ASP or ASP.NET code would be find.
THANKS
sam

If you are submitting a form to a script on a remote server,
and letting
that script load content to the browser, YOU have no control
over what it
loads UNLESS there is some command you can send it that it
will understand.
No amount of ASP on your server is going to change what the
remote script
does.
http://www.constantcontact.com/services/api/index.jsp
they only allow their customers to see the instructions for
the API so i
can't search to see IF there is a redirect you can send with
the form info.
But posts on their support board say that there is.

I need help writing a script that finds the first instance of a paragraph style and then changes it

I need help writing a script that finds the first instance of a paragraph style and then changes it to another paragraph style. I don't necessarily need someone to write the whole thing, by biggest problem is figuring how to find just the first instance of the paragraph style. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hi,
Do you mean first instance of the paragraph style
- in a chosen story;
- on some chosen page in every text frames, looking from its top to the bottom;
- in a entire document, looking from its beginning to the end, including hidden layers, master pages, footnotes etc...?
If story...
You could set app.findTextPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle to your "Style".
Story.findText() gives an array of matches. 1st array's element is a 1st occurence.
so:
Story.findText()[0].appliedParagraphStyle = Style_1;
//==> this will change a paraStyle of 1st occurence of story to "Style_1".
If other cases...
You would need to be more accurate.

Need help writing non-gui JMF program

I need to write a program that will convert a WAV file from a ULAW format to a GSM WAV file format. I first tried this with the Java Sound API and the WAV file format of GSM was not supported so I stumbled across JMF.
I can use the JMStudio and Export GUI programs that come with JMF to convert the wav file as needed. But now I'm trying to write a batch program (non-gui) to convert the file on the fly.
First, is this possible. Second, does anyone have any code samples of a batch java program using JMF in batch.
Thanks,

Need Help writing program

very new to java, i conceptually know what i want to do, but it is hard to apply that to writing the program. this is very introductory so i'd appreciate all and any help.
i am trying to write a program such that if I select an integer, n, as in input, the program can convert that integer into it's binary representation. for example, if the integer is 4, then the program would output 001 as the binary representation of 4.
that is the first part, the second part is to have the binary representation go from most significan bit to least significant bit, so for the integer 4 it will come out as 100 (or 000100 or 00100).
ok basically i know i want the program to divide the chosen integer by 2 and take the remainder (n%2), which will be 1 or 0. i then want the program to take the value (n/2) and have that be the new n value, then repeat the steps over and over till my n just becomes 0. i am trying to do this with a while loop, but if there is an easier way to do this, please let me know. so far wha ti have is below, kinda stuck on how to write this program, please help. the output just keeps giving me 0 and doesn't end.

consider
while (n != 0){
System.out.println(n%2);
n = n/2;
}put the reverse of the stoping condition in the parens for the loop
This loop will run while n is NOT zero. It wil stop when n is zero. Try it for a few numbers and see what it does.
Pay particular attention to what it does if the number you supplied is zero (which is the one binary number that does not have a single one in it.)
Also take a look at what it does for negative numbers and decide what you want to do in that case.

if anyone could please tell me whats wrong with my code i'd be greatful...the program is supposed to perform binary and sequential search on a sorted array of 100000 numbers.once on an item in the middle of the array once on the right side of it and once on the left side...i also need to count the number of basic operations for the same number in both sequential and binary to see whats better.and i need to check the time...i think the method call is wrong,not sure though...plz i need help.its not compiling and i dont know why..

Just add new messages to a thread you've already created. Don't create a new thread each time.
Anyway, look. This is wrong:int seqSearch(z;50000;n); //method call 4 key where key=midfor two reasons. The first is that leading "int"; it doesn't mean anything here. "int" is used to declare an integer variable, but you're not declaring a variable here, you're invoking a method. The second problem is that you're using semicolons to separate arguments in the method call, but actually commas are correct. You probably want something more like this:
int result;
result = seqSearch(z, 50000, n); //method call 4 key where key=mid.
Some more problems with your code: you're calling non-static methods in a static context (the main method is static and seqSearch isn't). You're also using "n" before you declare it, which is probably a problem.
And this makes no sense:z=2*i;because you've declared z to be an array; you can't use the multiplication operator on an array. It's not clear really what you're trying to accomplish there.
Here's what I want you to do. Take your code and completely remove the binSearch method. Just rip it out. Then in your main() method, take out all references to the binSearch method, and all references except for the first one of the seqSearch method. Fix the things I mentioned above.
Then try to compile what you have. It won't compile. You will get error messages. That's OK. Just fix them and move on. If you don't understand an error message, ask on these forums (DON'T CROSSPOST), quoting the full error message and the relevant lines of code.
After a couple hours, you'll fix the syntactical bugs, and your program will compile. Then you'll find that it compiles but the program doesn't work right. That's also OK. This is how computer programming works. It's part of the process. Don't panic. At that point, you can start trying to fix the program so it does what it's supposed to. Eventually you'll get it to work.
Then, and only then add more invocations of the seqSearch method. They won't all work, probably. You'll find more bugs. That's OK. Just repeat the process of fixing them.
When you've fixed those bugs, then, and only then, add the binSearch method. Repeat the process of fixing syntax and hunting down and fixing bugs.
Then your program will work.

Need help with inventory program!!! someone please help me!!!

Ok I have to write this inventory program for one of my classes.
For part one i needed to Create a product class that holds the item number, the name of product, the number of units in stock, and the price of each unit.
Then create a java application that displays all of the above info plus the total value of the inventory. I have done this so far with success.
For part two i needed to modify the program so the application can handle multiple items. Use an array to store the items. The output should display the information one product at a time including the item number, the name of the product, the number of units in stock, the price per unit, and the value of the inventory of that product. In addition, the output should display the value of the entire inventory.
so create a method to calculate the value of the entire inventory.(i did this)
and create another method to sort the array items by the name of the product. ( i did this)
The program compiles and runs fine except it is not doing anything from part two. It just does the same thing that it did when i wrote part one.
Does anyone know why or what i need to do to my code.
Here is my code.

You will get more help if your code is formatted better:
* Only post code that is already formatted correctly including indentations.
* Get rid of all those comments cluttering up your code.
* Make sure your posted code compiles without need for any changes. Yours doesn't at present. Where is the ProductInfo class?
Again, you want it easy for a volunteer here to read your post, otherwise he/she simply won't do it. Good luck.

Need help writing a query for following scenario

Hi all, I need some help writing a query for the following case:
One Table : My_Table
Row Count: App 5000
Columns of Interest: AA and BB
Scenario: AA contains some names of which BB contains the corresponding ID. Some
names are appearing more than once with different IDs. For example,
AA BB
Dummy 10
Me 20
Me 30
Me 40
You 70
Me 50
Output needed: I need to write a query that will display only all the repeating names with their corresponding IDs excluding all other records.
I would appreciate any input. Thanks

Is it possible to have a records with the same values for AA and BB? Are you interested in these rows or do you only care about rows with the same value of AA and different BB?
With a slight modification of a previous posting you can only select those rows that have distinct values of BB for the same value of AA
WITH t AS (
SELECT 'me' aa, 10 bb FROM dual
UNION ALL
SELECT 'me' aa, 20 bb FROM dual
UNION ALL
SELECT 'you' aa, 30 bb FROM dual
UNION ALL
SELECT 'you' aa, 30 bb FROM dual
SELECT DISTINCT aa, bb
FROM (SELECT aa, bb, COUNT(DISTINCT bb) OVER(PARTITION BY aa) cnt FROM t)
WHERE cnt > 1;

If j2sdk1.4.2_05 can't, does jdk1.3.1 can?
And anybody know where can i find pocket pc emulator so i can test my program on pc?
Many Thanks before,
tinna

hi,
I am currently doing a project in pda application. We are using jeode as a VM for the pda. But it uses java 1.2. Maybe you want to have a look at it. however u cant use the swing class in jeode and only awt is the class availlable for programming interfaces.
If you need jeode u can contact me. I can give you a free copy which was availlable till last year as now it has gone chargable.
Also do you have any idea about how can i read and write txt files or dat files from desktop using java. I want to use a usb cradle for connection.
This information would be really appreciated as I need this for my second year project.

Need help writing a script

I am trying to convert my prcess from DTS to SSIS. I am running this report out of SAP and then using Monarch to put into the correct form, then I am using the DTS to put it into the database on the SQL server. I am able to get all the other info to
move out having so much trouble here to get the plant number. The issuse is that it is on top on the page and it will change when a new plant is needed.
Thanks for any help
I need help wrting a script that will put that 7010 into a cloumn nnamed plant number.

To convert from DTS packages to SSIS you can just open the DTS package in a new SSIS project (depends on target SSIS version by using SSDT or BIDS).
The rest is mechanics how the iteration with SAP is done and may be beyond the scope of this forum.
