Is a string array with 500-1000 words read out of a file possible? Where can I get such a file.

If I wanted to make a game like Scrabble in Java, how could I include all the words?
Is there a way to import them or so? How do I do that? Is this even possible?

I tried your suggestion in post 4, but apparently I typed it in a bit wrong.

Tried it again and it works. Thanks!

Maybe I'll rephrase.

So this is my code:


String[] stringArray = {"hello","world","test","whatever"};
System.out.println("stringArray: "+ java.util.Arrays.toString(stringArray));...

Eclipse gives an error: "Array constants can only be used in initializers." in this line:

stringArray = {"banana","fish","tree","apple"};

How can I change a complete array when it's already initialized?

Can I change this array:

String[] stringArray = {"hello","world","test","whatever"};

to this:
...

This:


double test = 100/3;
System.out.print(test);
gives as output 33.0. Isn't it supposed to output 33.3333...?
Am I missing something?

yep, doing that now already. Apparently I forgot about arrays. Thanks anyway.

What's the easier way to get a random string?
At the moment I would use:



Random number = new Random();
numberR = number.nextInt(2)+1;
if (numberR==1){
System.out.println("Hi.");
}

Nevermind

Glad, I could help. :)

You forgot the dot between System and out.
Also post code inside code tags:


import java.io.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
class Main {
public static void main (String[] args) throws...

It's only console. Thanks, I'll try to use JOptionPanes.

How could I create this programm: If you start it, a loop tells something (say every 5 seconds) until you type in 'stop'.
The problem is, if I type in .nextLine(); it checks every time the loop...

So I've got the following code:


import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;


public class testframe extends JFrame{

private JButton play;

maybe... May I ask what's an IDE?

It would be realy useful to just type in jumptoLine(12); and it goes to that line. Now is there something to do so?

Thanks for helping me, GregBannon, but I hadn't read your comment since now. And by now I already know the equals method. I btw changed the programm so it auto repeats itself after you got the right...

Thanks :)

Helped me!

if (x = y != z)

tests if x is equal to y OR z.
How do I do this for .equals?

like:

if (x.equals("Hello" or "World")

I didn't want to copy it, because it's so long...

The programm runs fine until I get the number right. Then the conosle outputs:


Again? Type in yes or no.

Again? Type in yes or no.
...

So I wanted to make a simple number guessing game, which worked fine. Then I wanted to add a play again function, but... I get errors. Why? Here's the code:


import java.util.*;

public class...

thanks :) you really helped me out a lot.

now that's not important, but how long do you think would/will it take to learn java until I can create a small game?
