Thread: Flipping a coin

So I am in a CIS 111 course and I cannot figure out how to do this program. I am at the point now where I can read java and understand exactly what the program will do but still being able to think of what class/methods to call still boggles my mind. What I am trying to do in this program is this.

1. Flip the coin 100 times
2. I want it to keep track of the highest amount of heads flips in a row.
3. I want it to keep track of the highest amount of tails flips in a row.

at the end of the program I want it to print out the highest amount of heads flips in a row and tails flips in a row. I'm honestly not sure how to achieve this with the program I currently have altered. I could really use some help here and I figure someone here could help a noobie out .

public class Runs
{
 
public static void main (String[] args)
{
 
final int FLIPS = 100; // number of coin flips
int currentRun = 0; // length of the current run of HEADS
int currentRunTails = 1;
int maxRunTails = 1;
int maxRunHeads = 0; // length of the maximum run so far
int lastflip; // I need the last flip before current flip then set current flip equal to last flip.
int currentflip;
 
// Create a coin object
Coin myCoin = new Coin(); // creates coin object
 
// Flip the coin FLIPS times
for (int i = 0; i <= FLIPS; i++) //
{
// Flip the coin & print the result
myCoin.flip();
System.out.println(myCoin);
currentflip = ;
lastflip = currentflip;
 
// Update the run information
if (myCoin.getFace() == 0)
{
currentRun++;
// currentRunTails++; // If we keep getting heads in a row it will add 1 to each time before we got heads.
if (currentRun > maxRunHeads)
maxRunHeads = currentRun;
// currentRun = 0;
}//ends the if
else //we just threw a TAILS
currentRunTails++;
if (currentRunTails > maxRunTails)
maxRunTails = currentRunTails;
}//ends the for
// Print the results
System.out.println("The highest amount of HEADS in a row we have gotten is: " + maxRunHeads);
System.out.println("The highest amount of TAILS in a row we have gotten is: " + maxRunTails);
}//ends the main
}// ends the runs class
