    Thanks for the help you two! I have the outlay I'm looking for, now I have another problem I've run into: my buttons don't appear to be working correctly.

    I've started writing my method to convert...

  3. Re: Having problems with String out of bounds errors

    Sorry for the delay, and thanks for the advice. I was able to get it to work, for the most part.

    Re: Convert CHAR to STRING

    Oh I'm sorry, I forgot the class.


    gender = Character.toString(sex);

    Now it should work.

    Re: Convert CHAR to STRING

    You're in luck. Being that a string is of the String class and not a primitive variable, it has it's own methods, one of them being the toString() method. Just input the char as the parameter and it...

    Re: Scanner vs BufferedReader?

    Ok, that makes sense. So unless I'm doing something with reading files, I can use BufferedReader to accept the input, as long as that input is generated by the user, such as entering numbers or text,...

    Re: Scanner vs BufferedReader?

    So, Scanner is better in the sense that it allows more specific operations to be done. And BufferedReader is more of a generic catch all, which seems to me more like a class that would be taught in...

    Re: Scanner vs BufferedReader?

    Thanks for the comment. I guess I'll keep using Scanner then. Probably easier than learning a whole new class anyway to accomplish the same tasks with a class I already know.

    Scanner vs BufferedReader?

    I was just curious as to why I see many people in this forum using BufferedReader over the Scanner class? I don't believe I've heard of it before I came here, I've just always used the Scanner class....

    Re: If Statement Java Need help

    You're welcome!

    As for part 4, I'm not entirely certain how your program works since I'm not the one making it, and just reading it doesn't always immediately click into place, but I'm guessing...

    Re: Possible regex problem?

    That's alright, a string would also work, but in this case I believe a single character input would limit the amount of possible errors and outcomes. In theory string will work though, as long as you...

    Re: Need help with loop

    Try defining them both right before the do while loop.


    boolean repeat = false; // A value is necessary
    char response

    Then remove the char in front of response within the loop.

    It's usually best to let someone learn on their own and just guide them than give them the answer, jeremykatz.

    Re: If Statement Java Need help

    Ok, right here I notice that you have the program return a king at value 13, but at 13 or greater it returns not a card. Shouldn't this be greater than 13 like:

    Re: 2d Array

    Well, once you have a basic understanding of 2d arrays, the rest of the program is just a bunch of if/else if statements and nested for loops.

    As for a starting point, I'd recommend finding a good...

    The easiest way I've found to loop a program is to use a do while loop around the entire thing. What you have is the original program, then a duplicate inside an if statement (which by the way needs...

    You have a "{" which never closes on the first if statement on line 27.

    Re: Repeating program issue

    That did it! Thanks a lot! We haven't covered recursion yet, though I've skimmed the chapter, so now I know what to do in the case of returning and repeating a method. Thanks again!
