----------------------------------- ahmhum Sun Apr 12, 2009 7:38 pm converting int to string ----------------------------------- Ok I'm trying to convert int to string and i dun know how to, so plzz help me out here is wat im tryin to convert /*This method allows the user to choose which style of face he/she wants for the Death God.*/ public static void faceQuestion(int sword) { //Clear screens. d.clear(); c.clear(); //String face; //Call upon the various initial setup methods. { backgroundC(x,y); backgroundForDConsole(x, y); textBoxForTitles(); faceTitle(); constructBoxLeftSide(); constructBoxRightSide(); constructCircleLeftSide(); constructCircleRightSide(); face1stOption(); face2ndOption(); } //Calling upon the faceConstruct method. { faceConstruct(); } //Call upon the grid method. { grid(); } //Ask user first question. d.setTextBackgroundColor(Color.black); d.println(" Please choose your Death God's face type:"); d.println("----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"); d.println("* Please enter: *"); d.println("* (1) for Human Face *"); d.println("* (2) for Hollow Face *"); d.println("* (-1) to return to previous screen. *"); d.println("----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"); d.print(" Please enter your choice now: "); //Read input. String input = d.readLine(); //Set integers. int face=0; /* Set up 'if' construct with try/catch to determine the next choice of action for the user.*/ try { face= Integer.parseInt(input); } catch (NumberFormatException e) { //User selects defaults to invalid entry. } if (face==1) { //Calling upon the hair method. hairQuestion(sword, face); } if (face==2) { //Calling upon the hair method. hairQuestion(sword, face); } if (face==-1) { swordQuestion(); } if (-1>face||face==0||face>2) { //Call upon invalid entry. invalidEntry(); //Creating the loop. faceQuestion(face); } } //faceQuestion method so instead of it being face == 1 i want it to be 1A or 1B and so on thnx in advance Mod Edit: Remember to use syntax tags! Thanks :) Code Here ----------------------------------- Dark Sun Apr 12, 2009 9:33 pm RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- Didn't read your code but this is how to convert an int to a string. int number = 9000; String value = String.valueOf(number); In case you are wondering on how to convert a char value into a String, char c = 'k'; String value = Character.toString(c); ----------------------------------- ahmhum Sun Apr 12, 2009 10:10 pm RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- it doesn't work even when i did that ----------------------------------- ahmhum Sun Apr 12, 2009 10:20 pm RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- ok nvm it did work ----------------------------------- ahmhum Sun Apr 12, 2009 10:37 pm RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- ok now i want to convert char value to String but what you told me to do Dark, it doesn't work ----------------------------------- Dusk Eagle Sun Apr 12, 2009 10:38 pm Re: converting int to string ----------------------------------- Just out of curiosity, are you making a Death Note game? ----------------------------------- Tony Sun Apr 12, 2009 10:51 pm RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- You'd think that he'd actually use "Shinigami" then. The reference to "Hollow" makes me think Bleach, although I haven't seen nearly enough of that series to be sure. @ahmhum -- in what way does it not work? ----------------------------------- ahmhum Sun Apr 12, 2009 10:57 pm RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- it says tht the char is not defined char c = 'k'; String value = Character.toString(c); so (c) is not defined is what i get nd yea its a bleach game ----------------------------------- ahmhum Sun Apr 12, 2009 11:00 pm RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- oo and i want it to read two character so like 1A and not just 1 or A or w/e ----------------------------------- ahmhum Mon Apr 13, 2009 12:11 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- ok this is what I want to convert from char to String //Allow user to input number to see an object. public static void player1Choose(String namePlayer1,String namePlayer2) { e.clear(); d.clear(); //Set integers for choose selection. int number; int input=0; //Prompt user to input data and read the character. player1ChooseText(namePlayer1); backgroundForEConsole(); itsYourTurnText(e); makeAMoveText(e); e.setTextColor(Color.white); e.setTextBackgroundColor(Color.blue); e.println(namePlayer1+" Your score is: "+scorePlayer1+""); char play = d.getChar();; if (play == '1') { input = 1; } if (play == '2') { input = 2; } if (play == '3') { input = 3; } if (play == '4') { input = 4; } if (play == '5') { input = 5; } if (play == '6') { input = 6; } if (play == '7') { input = 7; } if (play == '8') { input = 8; } if (play == '9') { input = 9; } e.clear(); d.clear(); //Set number selection. number=input; //Try/catch construct for invalid entry. try { numberForPlayer1(number,namePlayer1,namePlayer2); } catch (NumberFormatException e) { invalidEntry(); gameGrid(); player1Choose(namePlayer1,namePlayer2); } }//choose method thnx in advance ----------------------------------- Tony Mon Apr 13, 2009 12:29 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- No. ----------------------------------- ahmhum Mon Apr 13, 2009 1:20 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- what do u mean no ----------------------------------- wtd Mon Apr 13, 2009 2:17 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- He means that's the wrong way to write that bit of code. Notice the pattern. Make your code simpler. ----------------------------------- wtd Mon Apr 13, 2009 2:19 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- Also horribly wrong: [code] if (face==1) { //Calling upon the hair method. hairQuestion(sword, face); } if (face==2) { //Calling upon the hair method. hairQuestion(sword, face); } [/code] ----------------------------------- Dark Mon Apr 13, 2009 10:05 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- those should be else ifs, after the first if. Also, use a switch statement for those ifs. Or, better yet, let play = input. parse the char into an int. ----------------------------------- Insectoid Mon Apr 13, 2009 10:22 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- What about Integer.parseInt? Or is that to go from string to integer? ----------------------------------- wtd Mon Apr 13, 2009 10:55 am RE:converting int to string ----------------------------------- Yes, yes, and you missed one. What happens if face is 1, and what happens if it's 2?
