Have problem with populate method. I am getting next mesage: cannot find symbol - constructor sample(java.lang.String)


I have also another class called Sample:

Code :

---

/**
 * Write a description of class Sample here.
 * 
 * @author (XXX) 
 * @version (1.0)
 */
public class Sample
{
    // representing location and values.
    private String location;
    private int value;
 
    /**
     * Constructor for objects of class Sample
     */
    public Sample(String location, int value)
    {
        this.location = location;
        this.value = value;
    }
 
    public String toString()
    {
        return "[" + location + "]" + " " + value;
    }
}

The code to create the Sample objects trying to use a constructor that accepts a single string, however the Sample class defines its constructor to accept a String and an int, perhaps you were trying to do the following:

Code :

---

new Sample("Meston", 284)

---

solved, thanks! :))

next error appearing here

Code :

---

 public int highestTempRecorded()
    {
        int highest = 0;
        for(int index = 0; index < samples.size(); index++) {
           [B] if(samples.get(index).getSampleValue() > highest)[/B]
            highest = samples.get(index).getSampleValue();
        }
        System.out.println("The highest temperature recorded is:" + " " + highest);
    }

---

I Think its this:

Code :

---

samples.add(new Sample("Kings College" + " " + 265));

---

You're treating the input as one String.

try

Code :

---

samples.add(new Sample("Kings College",265));

---

that goes for all similar lines.

Thanks, this problem is solved!)

I got next error here:

Code :

---

 public int highestTempRecorded()
    {
        int highest = 0;
        for(int index = 0; index < samples.size(); index++) {
            [B]if(samples.get(index).getSampleValue() > highest)[/B]
            highest = samples.get(index).getSampleValue();
        }
        System.out.println("The highest temperature recorded is:" + " " + highest);
    }

Dunno what is wrong (

Post your exception error message

cannot find symbol - method getSampleValue()

you havent got a getSampleValue() method anywhere in your classes.

Either create one or seek an alternative way of doing what you need.

made it like this:

public int highestTempRecorded()
{
int highestTemp = samples[0];
int highestTempRecorded = 0;
for(int index = 1; index < samples.length; index++) {
if(highestTempRecorded < samples[index]) {
highestTempRecorded = samples[index];
highestTempRecorded = index;
}
}
}

got such a message: array required, but java.util.ArrayList<Sample> found

Any ideas how to solve problem?

Array[] and ArrayList are two different things

Your Sample class doesn't have the method getSampleValue() (at least not as far as I can tell).

You need to explicitly declare this method and define it.

In the future, please don't ask the same question in multiple topics. I've merged the two.

Also, please use highlight or code tags with your code.
