ParsingMethod for Array of Edit Texts android - android

My app has 4-5 EditTexts on each activity and I have 10 or so activities. I need to parse each of these to a double. So I figured I want to create a method in which I enter an EditText Array and it returns a double array with the parsed numbers.
One of the EditTexts will always be empty so I would need that specific position in the array of Doubles that are supposed to be returned to 0.
This is what I have been fiddling around with (without success so far).
public double[] parser(EditText[] editArray) {
EditText toBeParsed[] = null;
double parsed[] = null;
for (int i = 0; i < editArray.length; i++) {
try {
parsed[i] = Double.parseDouble(toBeParsed[i].getText().toString());
} catch (Exception e) {
parsed[i] = 0;}
}
Ho do i need to set this up?
Next in one of my activities I have this where I call the method (from a MiscMethods.java file)
EditText inputs[] = {i1,i2,i3,i4}
Double parsed[];
for (int i = 0; i < inputs.length; i++) {
parsed[i] = MiscMethods.parser(inputs);
}
But get a type mismatch... Why? the method returns an array of doubles and should put them into the double parsed[] array.?

It seems like you are using toBeParsed array in stead of your editArray
so
parsed[i] = Double.parseDouble(toBeParsed[i].getText().toString());
should be
parsed[i] = Double.parseDouble(editArray[i].getText().toString());

how to loop through 2d array and make the result appear in table form in android

HI below is the code which gets the four columns data from the curson and put in the 2d array. basically there are two issues one is that i get the last value as nullnullnullnull means all for columns are fetched as null.
the seconds is that i want to print the array in multitextline or if any other widget availabe so that i get four fields in a row. like
id rule_body rule_con boole
0 abc def 1
0 a f 0
c.moveToFirst();
int i=0;
while(c.moveToNext()) {
String id = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("id"));
String rb = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("rule_body"));
String cn = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("rule_cons"));
String bl = c.getString(c.getColumnIndex("boole"));
table[i][0] = id;
table[i][1] = rb;
table[i][2] = cn;
table[i][3] = bl;
++i;
}
for(int a=0;a<count_row;a++)
for(int b=0;b<count_col;b++) {
obj_ml.append(String.valueOf(table[a][b]));
}
so far i am getting all the result in a single line. any help will be appreciated.
Change your for-loop as below
for (int a=0;a<count_row;a++)
{
for(int b=0;b<count_col;b++)
{
obj_ml.append(String.valueOf(table[a][b]));
}
// add to obj_ml new line character '\n'
obj_ml.append("\n");
}

Android: Fill array up to a certain length

The situation
I have got different char[] arrays with a different amount of items. To avoid the "OutOfBounds"-Error while processing them I want to standardize them.
For Example:
My Array has following items: "5;9" --> What I want it to look like: "0,0,0,0,5,9" (fill up with "0"s to 6 items)
What I tried:
char[] myarray1 = mystring1.toCharArray();
...
for(int i=0; i<6; i++){
myarray1[i] = 0;
if(i<myarray1.length-1){
myarray1[i] = myarray1[i];
}else{
myarray1[i] = 0;
};
};
My code failed, because it evokes exactly that error...
I hope somebody can help me :)
Thanks!
The reason why your solution doesn't work is that you are using the same array for everything.
After char[] myarray1 = mystring1.toCharArray(); the length of myarray1 is 2, so you cannot simply assign entry 2,3,4 and 5 in your loop. Furthermore if you want the character ´0´ to be in the string, you need to surround your zeros with apostrophes.
You can fix your solution like this:
char[] myNewArray = new char[6];
int myarrayIndex = 0;
for(int i=0; i<6; i++)
{
if(i < (myNewArray.length - myarray1.length)) {
myNewArray[i] = '0';
} else {
myNewArray[i] = myarray1[myarrayIndex++];
};
};
System.out.println(myNewArray); //Will print out: 000059
An easier solution could be this:
myarray1 = String.format("%6s", mystring1).replace(' ', '0').toCharArray();
Firstly trying to fill 0's is not going to fix the error.
Secondly your logic is not right(assuming size as 6), change it to myString.length().
And I don't understand the point of myarray1[i] = myarray1[i];.
Anyways, every array with integer size is initialized by Zero's according to Java specs. On the other hand if you want to fill it with any other value, try Arrays.fill().
I think this function will accomplish what you're trying to do.
private static String formatString(String input)
{
String FORMATTED_STRING = "0,0,0,0,0,0";
int difference = FORMATTED_STRING.length() - input.length();
return FORMATTED_STRING.substring(0, difference) + input;
}

numberformatexception and edittext in android

Following code gives me numberformatexception. can you please tell me where to put exepcions or what to do about following lines? logcat tells that there is a problem on commented line
public void zaplatiti(){
EditText zbrojka = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.editText7);
Float[] strings = new Float[allTexts.size()];
Float zbroj=(float) 0;
for(int i=0; i < allTexts.size(); i++){
strings[i] = Float.valueOf(allTexts.get(i).getText().toString());////problem
}
for (int k=0;k<strings.length;k++){
zbroj =zbroj+ strings[k];}
}
zbrojka.setText(String.valueOf(zbroj)+"KN");
}
for(int i=0; i < allTexts.size(); i++){
try {
strings[i] = Float.valueOf(allTexts.get(i).getText().toString());////problem
}
catch (NumberFormatException e) {
// Code to execute if the entered value is not a number
}
}
This is also possible to avoid by only allowing your EditTexts to have numerical values. That will force the user to only enter a numerical value in the first place, then you don't have to catch the exception. But then you should check if the entered text is empty first.
EDIT:
For doing this you must make an if statement, but the correct comparison beetween String values is:
if ( mEditText.getText().toString().equals("String to compare with")){ ... }
the "numerical mode" of an editText could be set up in the XML file as:
android:inputType = "number"
Other valid numerical modes are numberSigned and numberDecimal.
So after changing the input type your code could look like:
for(int i=0; i < allTexts.size(); i++){
if (!allTexts.get(i).getText().toString().equals("")) {
strings[i] = Float.valueOf(allTexts.get(i).getText().toString());////problem
}
else {
// Code to execute if there is no entered value
}
}
Did you check the allTexts Array type?

Comparing two strings in android [duplicate]

Comparing two identical strings with == returns false
I am having real hard time with solving this code. This might look silly but I am not able to figure out what is happening. I am parsing a JSONArray(No big deal!) I am traversing the array with a for loop. I want to break the loop when the user input and the value matches. Here is my code
String regi = null;
JSONObject studentObject = null;
try {
JSONArray returned = test.getInternetData();
int i;
for (i = 0; i < returned.length(); i++) {
studentObject = returned.getJSONObject(i);
regi = studentObject.getString("REGISTRATION_NO");
if (regi == reg) {
name = studentObject.getString("STUDENT_NAME");
break;
}
}
course = studentObject.getString("COURSE_CODE");
Log.d("Details", name + course + regi + i);//Out put: nullGraduate081018394:name - null
//course: Graduate (same for all), regi: last registration number,
//i: giving totalnumber of objects
As per my knowledge the loop should stop when it finds a match. The COURSE_CODE will be corresponding to the student. Am I missing something?
Please note: The function getInternetData() is returning the whole JSON Array. The loop is completely traversing every object.
Strings cannot be compared with == in Java. You have to use string1.equals(string2).
Use regi.equals(reg) or regi.contentEquals(reg) instead of == and you will be fine :-)
use regi.contentEquals(reg) or !regi.contentEquals(reg) for comparison
you should use regi.contentEquals(reg)
try using this
JSONArray returned = test.getInternetData();
int i;
for (i = 0; i < returned.length(); i++) {
// added the below line
studentObject = new JsonObject();
studentObject = returned.getJSONObject(i);
regi = studentObject.getString("REGISTRATION_NO");
if (regi.equals(reg)) {
name = studentObject.getString("STUDENT_NAME");
break;
}
}
instead of just
JSONArray returned = test.getInternetData();
int i;
for (i = 0; i < returned.length(); i++) {
studentObject = returned.getJSONObject(i);
regi = studentObject.getString("REGISTRATION_NO");
if (regi == reg) {
name = studentObject.getString("STUDENT_NAME");
break;
}
}

Array Being Overwritten with Last Index in Loop

I'm working on code that takes two arrays with strings (the strings are just sentences) and allocates them to classes which are held in another array (The Sentence class array shown below in the code).
So here's my problem. When popList() is called, the for loop runs through twice and works fine, putting the first index of addStrings and addTranslation into the first class in the array. However, when the loop indexes up and runs temp.sentence = addStrings[1] again, it OVERRIDES the first class's .sentence also. Then when temp.translations = addTranslations[1] runs again it OVERRIDES the first class's .translation.
So by the end of the loop, all of the arrays are filled with the same thing: the last index of addStrings and addTranslation. Every time it loops it overwrites all the indices before it with the index it's supposed to be putting in.
Anyone know what the problem is here? Thanks!
public class Sentence {
public String sentence;
public String translation;
Sentence() {
sentence = " ";
translation = " ";
}
}
private void popStrings() {
addStrings[0] = "我是你的朋友。"; addTranslations[0] = "I am your friend.";
addStrings[1] = "你可以帮助我吗?"; addTranslations[1] = "Could you help me?";
addStrings[2] = "我不想吃啊!"; addTranslations[2] = "I don't want to eat!";
}
//Fill Sentence array with string and translation arrays
private void popList() {
int i = 0;
Sentence temp = new Sentence();
for(i = 0; i < addStrings.length && i < addTranslations.length ; i++) {
temp.sentence = addStrings[i];
temp.translation = addTranslations[i];
sentences[i] = temp;
}
}
You need to create new Sentence() inside the loop:
for(i = 0; i < addStrings.length && i < addTranslations.length ; i++) {
Sentence temp = new Sentence();
temp.sentence = addStrings[i];
temp.translation = addTranslations[i];
sentences[i] = temp;
}
Otherwise you set sentence and translation continuously in the same object.
