Hey, guys... I really need your help with this...for some reason, my while loops are getting jumbled in my head and I can't see this straight. This is
java.

Problem:

The statistician for a professional baseball team collects batting data for each hitter on the team in a separate file. Each file resembles the following example from early in the season:


# AB BB B1 B2 B3 B4 HP SC
1 4 0 0 2 0 0 0 0
2 3 0 0 1 0 0 0 1
3 6 0 2 1 0 0 1 0
4 3 0 1 0 0 0 0 0
5 5 0 2 0 0 0 0 0
-1


#--Game Number
AB--At Bats
BB--Bases on balls (walks)
B1--Singles
B2--Doubles
B3--Triples
B4--Home runs
HP--Hit by pitch
SC--Sacrifices


The sentinel value of -1 at the beginning of the line marks the end of the data.

The statistisian desires a computer program that will prompt the user for the name of a file and then read the specified file and calculate a batting average (BA), a slugging percentage (SP), and an on-base percentage (OBP), as follows:

BA=(B1+B2+B3+B4)/AB
SP=(B1+B2*2+B3*3+B4*4)/AB
OBP= (B1+B2+B3+B4+BB+HP)/(AB+BB+HP+SC)

Output data must be formatted exactly as shown:

Batting Statistics
--------------------------
Games Played : 999
Batting Average : 9.999
Slugging Percentage: 9.999
On-base Percentage : 9.999

Crazy amounts of love to anyone willing
to help me.

lolz. i wish it was that simple.

import java.util.Scanner;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class BattingStatistics

public static void main (String [] args)throws IOException
{

final int SENTINEL = -1;
int AB, BB, B1, B2, B3, B4, HP, SC;
double BA, SP, OBP;

String stats = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( null, "Please enter the file name.");

File statsFile = new File(stats);
Scanner scan = new Scanner(statsFile);

scan.nextLine();

}
}


//this is what I have so far.

While I don't know shit about coding, you should wrap your code in code tags when posting it on the board...

[DryasFatalis]

whatever. it's not that hard to get the picture. :P

My Java is extremely rusty and we didn't have this fancy Scanner class when I was a little whipper-snapper but just from a really quick glace at the docs try something like this:

import java.util.Scanner;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;

public class BattingStatistics
{

    public static void main (String [] args)throws IOException 
    {

      final int SENTINEL = -1;
      int AB, BB, B1, B2, B3, B4, HP, SC, abOrSent;
      double BA, SP, OBP; 

      AB = BB = B1 = B2 = B3 = B4 = HP = SC = BA = SP = OBP = 0;
      
      String stats = JOptionPane.showInputDialog( null, "Please enter the file name.");
      
      File statsFile = new File(stats);
      Scanner scan = new Scanner(statsFile);

      while( (abOrSent = scan.nextInt()) != SENTINEL)
      {
             AB += abOrSent;
             BB += scan.nextInt();
             B1 += scan.nextInt();
             ....do this till you get to the end
       }
       //Do your overall calcs here
       //Display here
    }
}

ilumore.

dRaven 90% sure she's of the vaginal persuasion.

[budlight]

ilumore.

dRaven 90% sure she's of the vaginal persuasion.

error you just referenced a variable before you assigned it a value

[themaSk]

i'm taking java this whole year


and i hate it

[dazed]

yeah I've done this, what I did was copy Wang's program and change the vars to make it look like I wrote it. A+ btw

[DryasFatalis]

ilumore.

I'm 100% sure.

[rj45]

hai dryas

[DryasFatalis]

hai, rj. How are you doing?

[rj45]

meh i'm livin
hows youse babes?

[DryasFatalis]

I'm doing alright. Doing that college thing. Still amazed, as long as I've been here, that people still think I'm a guy. lolz.

[rj45]

you should repost the bra pic
it will convince some and make for nifty JO material for others

[DryasFatalis]

lolz. that pic was up for like 5 minutes WAYYY back in 0d5 I don't even know if i have it anymore, and probably wouldn't repost it even if I did.

[rj45]

lest we forget
lucky i still don't have that or else i'd be posting it with the quickness simply for giggles sakes

[Zain]

i think what this code translates to is
go tigers
