Remember me.....well i need some real help now....:)

Hello guys,i hope that u remember me...if not i hope that u ll help me anyway....
well,i had an assignment for my university...i posted it and u told to start reading several books and try to write some code....
i came up with the following code:
import java.util.Random;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.DateFormat;
class Account {
     double initbal;
     double deposit;
     double withdraw;
//Account constructor
Account() {
     initbal=0;
     deposit=0;
     withdraw=0;
//method for calculating the balance
double balance() {
     return (initbal+deposit)-withdraw;
class BankAccount {     
     double initbal;
     private double deposit;
     private double withdraw;
     public static void main(String args[]) {
     Account Dimitris=new Account();               //call the constructor
     CurrentAccount Over=new CurrentAccount();
try {     //exception added for fault parameters
     Dimitris.initbal=Double.parseDouble(args[0]);     //string parsing into a double
     Dimitris.deposit=Double.parseDouble(args[1]);     //string parsing into a double
     Dimitris.withdraw=Double.parseDouble(args[2]);     //string parsing into a double
     } catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) {
          System.out.println("You must enter three values!!");
     } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
          System.out.println("Only numbers are allowed!!");
     double AvlOvr;
     double bal;
     bal=Dimitris.balance();          //method called
     System.out.println("Initial balance is: "+Dimitris.initbal);
     System.out.println("Deposit Amount is: "+Dimitris.deposit);
     System.out.println("Withdraw amount is: "+Dimitris.withdraw);
     System.out.println("Overdraft limit is: "+Over.AvlOvr);
if (withdraw>(initbal+deposit)) {
     System.out.println("Insufficient Funds");
else
     System.out.println("Balance is: "+bal);
     System.out.println("Available Funds is: "+(bal+Over.AvlOvr));
     //display the date and time for the current locale     
     Date date=new Date();
     DateFormat dateFormatter=DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.SHORT,DateFormat.SHORT);
     System.out.println(dateFormatter.format(date));
class CurrentAccount extends BankAccount {
private float accId;
double AvlOvr;
CurrentAccount() {
double ovdr;
ovdr=100;
AvlOvr=ovdr;
interface Personal {
void Deposit ();
void Withdraw ();
the thing is that i need some help cause i cant find some sollutions....
i d like to give to the user a random id....
then at the CurrentAccount subclass i d like to add a Username to the user.Then Level 2 worries me as well.....I ll post u my assignment so u can have a look....If u could help me with Level 2 sollution and the thing that i told u before i d be grateful.......
by the way..i hope that u all guys have nice holidays!!!
Here is the assignment:
JAVA LAB ASSIGNMENT � B241
Bank Account
Level 1
Create a bank account that reads in the following information about a single customer
account:
Initial balance
Deposit amount
Withdraw amount
Current Date
Give the account holder a random account id number.
Display error messages if the number of parameters is incorrect or negative parameters are
entered.
Verify that the amount being withdrawn is available (i.e. make sure that the initial balance +
deposit amount is greater than or equal to the amount being withdrawn).
Calculate the balance amount in the account after the transaction has been completed.
Tasks:
- Create a BankAccount class, which defines a bank account
- Use command line arguments to read in the account information
- The customer account values are private and accessible only through the
BankAccount class
- Use the file, InsufficientFundsException.java given to you (Location:
/global_ro/rekha/B241/assignment) to create an Exception class called
InsufficientFundsException.class that throws an exception if an
InsufficientFundsException occurs in your BankAccount class. Make the necessary
changes to the file if you feel the need to do so.
- Print out the following information:
2
account holder�s id
balance amount
amount being withdrawn
the current date and time
(Hint: this will occur when the amount withdrawn is more than the total amount in the
account. Your withdraw method throws the InsufficientFundsException exception which
should be caught in your main program from where you are calling the withdraw method).
Subclass the BankAccount class for the specifics of a CurrentAccount class that adds an
additional field to the already existing information:
User name
The account balance and account id values should still be private and now accessible only
through the CurrentAccount subclass.
Allow the CurrentAccount class to provide overdraft protection of up to �100.
Task:
- Incorporate the additional functionalities into your initial program and print out the
values as before.
********************************END OF LEVEL 1 **************************
Level 2
Add the following functionalities to your Level 1 program.
Define an interface named Personal, consisting of two methods:
Deposit
Withdraw
Read in the account information specified in Level 1 for more than one user through the
command line parameters and display appropriate error messages as before.
Calculate the balance amount in each account after the transaction has been completed.
Tasks:
- Increment the account id each time a customer is added (For instance, if the first
customer id is 100, the next id should be 101 and so on).
- Implement the Personal interface in the BankAccount class.
- Print out the customer information for all customers as you did in Level 1.
*****************************END OF LEVEL 2*****************************
Level 3
Extend the above features to add some more personal information about the customer such
as:
a. Name: surname first name
b. Date of birth: day/month/year
c. Address: street
Town
Postcode
d. Phone: home number work number
e. E-mail: e-mail address
Customer�s data is stored in a file. It is retrieved from the file when the bank is opened and
stored in a memory buffer. The memory buffer is updated after every transaction. The
contents of the memory buffer are written into the file when the bank is closed.
Design a data management structure of the bank with several customers. The bank performs
�deposit� and �withdraw� transactions by using Java I/O streams.
Use the SimpleClient.java and SimpleServer.java files (Location:
/global_ro/rekha/B241/assignment) as a base for creating your own Client and Server
windows. Make the necessary changes to the files for them to work within your programs.
Tasks:
- Create a non-graphical user interface to be able to
o enter customer�s data
o display customer�s personal and account data after every transaction
- Write a JAVA program to read and write customers data from/to a file.
- Create a client � server networking environment using Java�s networking capabilities
such that data is entered through the server window and displayed by the client in the
client window.

Ela re si k eimaste k sinonomatoi...anyway...could you pleaze help me with my assignment...my other problem is that i've writen some more code for the 3rd part where it says add some more fields for the customers.I save them in a file and i restore them but i dont know how can i call them when the bank is opened....here's the rest of the code....
import java.io.*;
public class UserInfo {
public static void main(String[] args)
throws IOException {
     String k,l,m,n,o,p,q,r;
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader(
new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.print("First name:");
     k=stdin.readLine();
     System.out.print("Last name:");

  • OK, so I need some real help

    So, I've been given a shiny new t-mobile 8900 for xmas. It was bought from some website or other (new) so it didnt come with a sim, which was fine with me since I already have a pay as you go t-mobile (mates rates) sim i wanted to use. Now the problem is i cant access any sort of non-wifi internet connection. What do i do? Is there any kind of booster i can buy on my current sim or do i need another?

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Typically, you need a Blackberry Data Plan attached to the account of the SIM that you are using...generic data plans are usually not sufficient. What you need to do is to determine the precise services that you desire to use and then contact your carrier to find out what plan you need from them to provide you with those services.
    Good luck and let us know!

I always recommend that you treat your BlackBerry like any other computing device, including using a regular backup schedule...click here for an article with instructions.

  • I need some real help!

    The Ipod worked perfectly last night.I left for work this morn and turned it on .The apple logo showed up like always, but it seemed to take for ever (froze on the apple logo). So I reset it. But now it won't turn on. (battery was fully charged)So I tried to plug it in to the computer to do a restore and the computer does not pick it up. I've tried the support page at apple and the 5 step also. I'm up to date too.No noises either.

    You may still need to reset it. Be sure to do the reset with the hold switch step.
    Put the hold switch to the OFF/White position. Now toggle it ON/orange then back off again. Then press and hold both the MENU and center buttons on the iPod and hold them for a good 15 seconds or so. Your iPod should reboot starting with the Apple Logo screen.
    If it doesn't work the first time, give it a second or third go. Sometimes it takes a few tries.

  • Need some quick help - fairly urgent!

    I've just taken over a new job and have been the task of finishing the new brochure for Christmas, there's not a lot to do but a lot of the measurements need changing
    This is the layout I'm dealing with..
    All the boxes have been made in Illustrator
    The text has been done in In'Design and it seems every piece of text is it's own box if that makes sense
    My question is, if I select the whole specification box - copy, paste it into Adobe Illustrator and change the text there, then paste the edited box back into In-Design, will I lose quality when it gets printed?
    I'm worried if I do it this way it may come out blurred? Or am I just worrying about nothing?

    I couldn't find an Illy file in the end and have ended up creating tables in ID to replicate what was already there!
    Didn't take very long and I guess if I didn't do it now, I'd come across the same situation next time!

    There certainly are viable "quick fix" solutions proposed here, and if the dealine is looming and this file never needs to be touched again I might be tempted, but they are only postponing the pain for a file that needs periodic updates, and I wouldn't waste effort on them, myself, when that time can be put toward a proper rebuild now if that's the ultimate goal.

  • Replaced zd8000 motherboard and need some troubleshooting help please............

    Hello All,
     I just replaced the motherboard on our HP zd8000 (pentium 4, 3.0ghz, 2gb ram, Win XP) with a used but tested good MB and need some help with the following.
    1) I now cannot play DVD movies as the error no "dvd decoder" present which was not an issue before?  Where can I go to get a free decoder that will work, as Windows only shows paid versions?  We have the dvd burner/reader with lightscribe. SOLVED! CNET HAD DECODER.
    2) The internal temperature, according to SpeedFan, is running around 140 degrees with just some Internet browsing.  Is that a normal temperature because I only have one of three fans running on the laptop?  Is there anyway of making all three fans run to be sure there are no issues?  I am positive I hooked up everything but again only one fan seems to be running?
    3) I discovered some of the pins were damaged in the card reader.  I may get the Seller to give me a discount, no intention of tearing it apart simply for that, but is there any concern of short or otherwise?
    4) Our battery stopped charging years ago, these were notorious for such, but I purchased a new one last year and hoped the replacement MB would allow charging again.  No such luck though.  Is there anything I can do, BIOS update etc, to make the battery charge?
    5) Anything you folks can think of for me to test to insure the new motherboard is working properly?
    Thanks, Ralph 
    P.S. This was a correct replacement board according to MB serial numbers.  Everything else seems to be functioning properly other than mentioned.  Our graphics went out on the original MB.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Some of the wires had pushed out of the harness that connected the other two fans.  I double checked and re-attached those so now the laptop is running quite a bit cooler.
    EVERYTHING IS GOOD TO GO!

  • GT70 680m/8970m troubleshooting - need some experienced help!

    Hi!
    Looping for some serious help...
    After some erratic behavior my i7 3rd gen GT70 just stopped working with MSI 680m 4GB. The card shows on occasions in manager, but both - discrete and HD4000 have no installed drivers and wont work unless 680 is plugged out (then intel kicks in without prob). That happened after some automatic driver updates and possibly BIOS update. Tried a ton of these and Bioses, rather randomly, trying to solve the disappearance of my 680m from control panel, but non of them worked. To make the things worse, I've messed with EC firmware editions trying the "beta" t25,21,16,17 - one of them bricked the lappi for good... Had MSI re-flash the bios (couldn't do the blind flash myself) but they say they can't help me with 680 since it is from GT60 originally and it's not supported by GT70 (I switched it from 675 to 680 in the other MSI laptop some 8 months ago - both worked without a problem until the issue). Don't have access to check my 680m in another MSI to check if it's working and is no hardware failure, but have access to 8970m from CLEVO for some decent bucks - was wondering which bios should I install to run it in my GT70 or which bios/EC firmware to flash so my old 680 start working again... This or that... Any idea? Guys? Svet? Sure will make the donation if needed of course!

    Quote from: pjaca on 12-April-15, 13:56:25
    Checked that out. What I need is some info which BIOS to use in GT70 0ND for 680m or 8970m, particularly. My 680m stopped working after the bios/ec firmware update, still shows in manager but tries to the same resources as integrated Intel HD resulting in both not working. Is there a bios that allows for permanently switching off optimus and integrated gpu? Or the bios that will accept radeon 8970m (that works perfectly in 2nd gen MSI gt780 by the way...). Any ideas?
    No special BIOS is required to support 680M. Just use the latest BIOS release for model GT70 0NE by MSI, it should be working on the machine as long as there is no other strange issue, like a malfunction VGA card/Mobo....

  • I need some serious help with Oracle Database....PLEASE!!

  • Getting Started with Podcasting - need some direction/help

    hi,
    I need some information on how to get started Podcasting. Any good online resources, software, etc.
    I have looked at garageband3 on my iMac and it seems to be quite good, but what else is out there and does anyone have any tips or suggestions on getting started?
    Thanks in advance!!
    BCA

    I still have GB 2 so I don't know about GB's podcasting abilities (though some of the questions I see here suggest it's not all that wonderful).
    I use, and would recommend, Podcast Maker:
    http://www.potionfactory.com/podcastmaker/
    which is $29.95 and is available on a 30 day free trial.
    You make your podcast using GB or whatever program you want, and save it as an MP3 file. You then open it in Podcast Maker and add the summary and description fields, and if you want it to be an enhanced podcast you add chapters and the artwork. It will then upload it to your iDisk or the server of your choice, create the XML file, and ping the Apple Store if required. All this is seamless and easy to use.

  • Need some real serious help guys

    Pasty, I redeem a ITunes card into my account and I wanted to buy somthing and then a secruity question thing came up and I don't remember the answers
    Is there a way to reset them....please

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then the steps half-way down this page should let you reset them : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use those steps on the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use.

    I installed it in my laptop (model M8859LL/A) which I booted with my Tiger installation DVD. However, the Disk Utility Program did not pickup my new hard drive. I also booted with my DiskWarrior program and it doesn't see the disk either.
    I got in touch with Seagate. The rep. there says it could be a bad disk, but asked if my laptop was compatible with the drive. He asked me to listen for disk noise when I turned on the computer -- there was none. That convinced him that the disk was defective.
    Subsequently I found that the hard drive was indeed compatible with my laptop and that the second one was defective, so I sent that one back and ordered a replacement.
    I just installed the replacement disk, However it too is not be seen by either Disk Warrior or Disk Utility. What now???

    Hi Dan,
    If, as Matthew suggested, you have the HD connector properly seated and it still doesn't work, the HD cable/connector itself may be damaged and need to be replaced. They are relatively inexpensive, so that would be my next troubleshooting step. You should be able to find one at one of the following:

  • Need some URGENT help with 3 DVD mastering issues PLEASE! :

    Hi there,
    Firstly, I am running DVD SP 3.0.2 on Mac OS 10.4.7 on a G5 Dual 2 GHz 3Gb Ram plenty of HD space...
    I am creating a DVD with: An intro sequence, a main menu, 4 sub menus, and 4 sections with around 12 chapters each.
    I am having some big problems, and a pretty stuck. I will lest them separately below, numbered. If you are able to help, please refer clearly to which number you are helping with. Any help is MUCH appreciated! Many thanks!!
    1. Each of the 5 menus (1 main, 4 sub) have a background video, and a separate audio track. I added the background videos by simply dragging them to the assests panel, then from there onto the menu editor window. They are created in FCP and are properly encoded. However, when I click the motion button, or use the simulator, the videos do not show up. The music plays, but all i see is plain black.
    What is going on?!?!?!
    2. I am really struggling with rollover buttons. I have custom created buttons, and I wand them to have a soft red glow around them when hovered over. HOW ON EARTH DO I ACTUALLY DO THIS??
    The buttons are in photoshop so can be exported with/without background/glow in any format.
    3. Is it possible, once I have got the above rollover working, to have an image to the right hand side of my buttons which changes with the the button rollover. i.e. hover over button 1, see image 1. hover over button 2, image changes to image 2.
    PLEASE PLEASE give any help you can, I have a deadline coming up and am quite stumped. Thanks again!!

    I am still having problems regarding issue Number 1. PLEASE ANYONE HELP?!
    Sorry, I'm not sure about the motion menus. I avoid those whenever possible. But you might click on the menu in the storyline tab (whatever it's called -- the hierarchical view with the disc, tracks, slideshows, etc.) and look at the properties and see if there's anything you have to enable specifically for motion. And be sure the motion button is on on the main display/preview area, but it sounds like you already know how that works.
    For your information, here is a screen grab of the menu I am trying to create:
    http://www.redhavoc.co.uk/stuff/menu.jpg
    I think it is obvious that when a button is hovered over, I want it to glow red, and the image to the right will change to match the respective button.
    IS THIS GOING TO BE POSSIBLE????
    Yes.
    First, your menus have to be layered menus. Unfortunately, there's no way to convert non-layered menus to layered menus, so if you already have non-layered, you'll have to just delete them and create new layered menus. The button (and menu item) to create a layered menu should be right by the normal new-menu item.
    Next, the graphical work is all in Photoshop.
    Side tip: You may already know this, but I found it's best to use 640x480 for the Photoshop document. When I do text and leave it as a text object in the Photoshop file, it resizes poorly in DVDSP. So this ends up being another 720x480 vs. 640x480 square/rectangular pixel conversion thing. DVDSP plays in the 640x480 world, at least as far as the designer can see. So I keep my images at 640x480, and it doesn't have to resize, and everything looks right.
    Moving on... Set up your basic background, the part that won't change (or will have other things covering it, like for your square image).
    Then put in all the buttons and images you'll be using, each part in a separate layer. This could have fifteen buttons (you have five buttons, and there can be three versions for each -- inactive, selected, and activated versions) and five or six square images (you said one for each button, and you might want a blank default if, say, you want to add a "back" button on the menu and want some blank or default image for the square when they're on the "back" button).
    Sometimes people don't bother with a separate "active" button state, but you usually want some visual feedback that they clicked the button. Also, I usually just build the default (unselected) button into the background; that's less hassle later on, and it will just draw the selected or activated buttons over that when the user is on that button.
    Line up all your buttons and images. All the square images lined up perfectly on top of each other, all the buttons in the right places (so you'll have three buttons stacked on top of each other in each spot). Give each layer a short but quickly recognizable name, and line them up in a consistent order. (button1-default, button1-selected, button1-active, button1-squarepicture, then button2-default, ... etc.) Photoshop and DVDSP don't care, but it makes it easier for you later.
    Note that earlier versions of DVDSP won't show Photoshop layer effects. (They handle layers, just not the effects, like inner glow, outer bezel, etc.) I don't remember when they changed this, but I think it was version 4.something. So if you're using that method to make your buttons glow, you may have to flatten each selected or active button layer, and you may even need to create a dummy blank layer underneath it first to give it something to flatten onto.
    Save the file as a standard Photoshop file (.psd). Drag the file onto your DVDSP layered menu and set it as the background.
    Now, in DVDSP, create all your buttons. Just drag boxes over/around the button pictures you have. Feel free to make them extra-big; users won't see the actual area you've selected, and bigger areas makes it easier for people to hit them if they're using a mouse on a computer to watch the DVD. You can point the buttons to their targets now if you want, and set the end jumps on the tracks if you want. (I tend to set the end jumps on the tracks so they automatically select the button for the next track.)
    Now's the fun part, since it will actually hook everything up and should be easy if your naming layer order were consistent. Click on the layered menu (in that hierarchical view) and look at the properties window. (Sorry I can't remember the technical names for all these windows; I'm doing this all from memory. So feel free to ask more questions if you can't find what I'm talking about.) One of the properties tabs should have a grid of checkboxes with a list of your layers. Make sure the background is checked for all of the states. Then check the layers you want to show for each button state, as well as the corresponding square image to show for each.
    Again, I'm doing this from memory, and I can't remember exactly how things are listed in that grid. But I remember it keeps your layers in the same order you put them in the Photoshop file and shows you those names, so it should make it easy to go down the list and check the right boxes.
    And another side tip: You can update the Photoshop file, but once you've put it in DVDSP, if you change the layer order, it will screw up the check boxes you checked. It always shows you the layer names correctly, but it keeps the checkboxes in DVDSP simply assigned to the layer number, so the fifth layer will keep the same checkboxes even if you juggle them so some other layer is now the fifth layer. So if you do juggle the layers in Photoshop, go back and fix the checkbox list in DVDSP.
    I put a sample Photoshop file based on yours in
    http://dan.black.org/layered-menu-sample.psd
    It's quick and dirty, but shows the layer layout, and you should be able to drop it on DVDSP to play with. (I also won't leave it there forever, maybe a few weeks, so anybody reading this in a month or more probably will get a 404 for that url.)
    Again, doing this from memory, so feel free to ask if anything doesn't work or doesn't make sense.

  • Need some Big help pro-100

      Hello, everyone first time here, but i have been reading the forums for the past 2 weeks.   My wife just bought a Pro-100 printer 2 weeks ago, and we are haveing nothing but problems setting this thing up.  I'v been on youtube, and different forums trying to get info.   I got home installed the setup CD, followed all the steps, I'm useing a windows pc.    Here is where my problems now come into play.  I went to canon website, and downloaded the latest driver for the printer.  I also Downloaded the print shop pro.   My wife uses LR6, and she, and I have only had it maybe 4weeks, we are very new at this.   The pictures are coming out dark and muddy.  Now I have read on here from searching, it's my screen, I have gone through and have done the optimal settings possible for my screen.    PSP for some reason just wont open in LR as a plugin.  I also dont even see a icon to open it manually.  this is where im lost, and so is my wife.  From seeing several post, i went into canon my printer and put the settings on manuel.  I'm just not sure if this thing is printing at its optimal settings.  Does anyone have any info on how to actually instal PSP?   From what i also have read is If we have LR6 we really don't need PSP to get good prints, but i'm just curious as to why PSP wont install into LR6 as a plugin like i see people with on youtube.  after Downloading PSP i went to LR6 open up File>plugin extra  and it list nothing for a plugin option.  Does anyone have a guid how to get this thing loaded as a plugin?   Also if we don't need PSP and are better off just printing from LR how should i set it up?  sorry for all these questions the wife and I are pretty bad at this stuff.  if anyone could offer some insight it would be much appreciated. 

    "From what i also have read is If we have LR6 we really don't need PSP to get good prints, ..." You absolutely do not need it.  LR6 has everything you need to make the highest quality prints from the Pro-100. "Also if we don't need PSP and are better off just printing from LR how should i set it up?" You do absolutely need to learn Lightroom.   It is important you start with Page Setup.  It must match the other settings in LR.  Remember 9 times out of 10 the Pro-100 prints EXACTLY what you told it to. This one major point is where most people goof up with Lightroom. Next go through each tab and make the necessary adjustments.  If you have a specific question on how each is used, just ask.  But most are pretty self explainatory. Canon is a hardware maker. Adobe is a software maker.  Each does that job well.  Neither does the others job well!
