Thread: problem !!

Welcome to the forums! When you post code surround it in [highlight=java][/highlight] tags, it makes your code alot easier. It looks like the following line is your problem.

Scanner s = new Scanner(new File("friday.in"));

If you're trying to get the next int from a user then use:

Scanner s = new Scanner(System.in);

If your code is correct, then forgive me. It's 3am. I'll check your code again when I wake up.

Try debugging your code by adding some more println()s. For example print out the values of a,b,c ... h inside of the loops.

Also it helps when you have an error with the program's output to post the output here.

I remember doing those. Fun times...

Friday: I immediately see a bracket problem. Check that and we will work from there.
Greedy: I also see a bracket problem. Check that and we can work from there aswell.

@Brt93yoda: USACO uses input text files with the extensions .in and output text files with the extension .out. He is reading a file, not the console.

first of all thanks to u both .....
@Brt93yoda: as aussiemcgr said any way thanks
@norm : i tried and the values out side the for loop are correct ...inside the loop are printed zeros and that what i dont know why ....i will try again
@aussiemcgr : i dont think the brackets r problem as the two codes compiled successfully with me ....dont know !!

Ok, I think I was reading it wrong since its hard to read the code like that.

Specifically where in the for loops do you print out the values? If we know exactly when they are 0, it is more helpful when debugging.

after incrementing the array elements

values out side the for loop are correct ...inside the loop are printed zeros

Please post the print out from the program and post the new code with the println() statements.
Be sure to put the code in code tags.

Ok, help me read through this.
True or False (from Friday):

for (i=0 ; i == n-1 ; i++ )

This statement will only run once, since n is not reevaluated, and only if n equals 1 since i must equal 0 initially and n-1 must equal 0 for it to return true.

He actually did that quiet a few times. I wonder if he means <=?

for (i = 2; i == (np + 1); i++) { // Here
            p = s.next();
            names[i-2] = p ;
            table.put(p,0) ;
        }
 
        for (k = 1; k == np; k++) { // Here
         giver = s.next() ;
         total = s.nextInt();
         no = s.nextInt() ;
         for (j=1 ; j == no ; j++){ //Here
             if (no==0)
              break ;
             else
             taker = s.next() ;
             calc = ((total-(total%no))/no)  ;
             temp = Integer.parseInt(table.get(taker).toString()) ;
             temp = temp + calc ;
             table.put(taker , temp) ;
             temp = Integer.parseInt(table.get(taker).toString()) ;
             temp = temp - calc ;
             table.put(giver , temp) ;
            }
          }

np >>> is the number of people that the problem give which is between1 to 10
but no << urright ... it might be zero .... checkin again ..thanks
