Need help in printing a line

[supahsain08]

hi, is it possible to post a line using coordinates, forexample if i want to post a line at the following coordinates (5,6)
Like I remember in Turing you can do that

For example here is the following code which shows all the directories and files

code:

import java.io.*; import java.util.*; import java.text.*; class Asn62 {     public static void main (String [] args)     {                 System.out.println ("\t\t\t\tDirectory\n");             System.out.print ("Name");             System.out.print ("\t                   Type");             System.out.print ("\t\tLast Modified");             System.out.println ("\t\t\tLength");         String [] Directories;         String [] Files;         double [] Modified;         double [] theLength;         Files = new String [6] ;         Directories = new String [6];         Modified = new double [6];         theLength = new double [6];             File folder = new File ("F:/");         File [] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles ();           for (int i = 0 ; i < listOfFiles.length ; i++)               {                 if (listOfFiles [i].isFile ())                 {                     Files [0] = listOfFiles [i].getName ();                                   System.out.println (Files [0]);                 }                 else if (listOfFiles [i].isDirectory ())                 {                     Directories [0] = listOfFiles [i].getName ();                                 System.out.print (Directories [0]);                                 System.out.println("      Dir");                 }                   long t = listOfFiles [i].lastModified ();                   Modified [0] = t;                   long s = listOfFiles [i].length ();                 theLength [0] = s;                  }              } }

Here is the output

(how do i post all dir's in one straight line)

[HeavenAgain]

printf or String.format() or Formatter class, use the "indent" flag
eg.

code:

System.out.printf("%10s%n","hi"); System.out.printf("%10s%n","supahsain08");

[supahsain08]

k i replaced this

code:

System.out.println ("Dir");

with this

code:

System.out.printf("%25s%n","Dir");

but still the same output


Any other suggestion?

[HeavenAgain]

code:

System.out.printf("%-25s%s%n","myHomeWork","dir"); System.out.printf("%-25s%s%n","games","dir");

the negative sign cause it to left(?) align text, and by default its right(?) aligned, so we change it and add the extra space we wanted

[supahsain08]

Thank you very much

Can you please help me one more time plz
I got that part now i need help with the last modified part, how will i format that correctly



Here is the code

code:

import java.io.*; import java.util.*; import java.text.*; class Asn62 {     public static void main (String [] args)     {                 System.out.println ("\t\t\t\tDirectory\n");             System.out.print ("Name");             System.out.print ("\t                      Type");             System.out.print ("\tLast Modified");             System.out.println ("\t\t\tLength");             System.out.println ("");         String [] Directories;         String [] Files;         double [] Modified;         double [] theLength;         Files = new String [6] ;         Directories = new String [6];         Modified = new double [6];         theLength = new double [6];         File folder = new File ("F:/");         File [] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles ();         for (int i = 0 ; i < listOfFiles.length ; i++)             {                 if (listOfFiles [i].isFile ())                 {                     Files [0] = listOfFiles [i].getName ();                                 System.out.printf("%-30s%s%n",Files [0],"File");;                 }                 else if (listOfFiles [i].isDirectory ())                 {                 Directories [0] = listOfFiles [i].getName ();                                                 System.out.printf("%-30s%s%n",Directories [0],"Dir");                                                                                                                 }                 long t = listOfFiles [i].lastModified ();                 Modified [0] = t;                                 System.out.println ("\t\t\t\t\t" + Modified [0]);                 long s = listOfFiles [i].length ();                 theLength [0] = s;                       }   } }

EDIT: how will i add another another thing in this code, forexample if i want to add another word like "hi" after 35s?

code:

System.out.printf("%-30s%s%n",Files [0],"File");;

[HeavenAgain]

welcome
now, i have a question for you

code:

double [] Modified;                Modified = new double [6];                 long t = listOfFiles [i].lastModified ();                 Modified [0] = t;

modified is an array of double, length of 6, ok, and now you are only making use of the first element, what's up with that? (unless i missed some part of course )

and now you have

code:

System.out.println ("\t\t\t\t\t" + Modified [0]);

why cant you just do the same with the dir and file name?

and sorry i dont get your last question, what do you mean by, add hi after 35s? after 35 seconds? what is s

[supahsain08]

i think i figured it out

code:

import java.io.*; import java.util.*; import java.text.*; class Asn62 {     public static void main (String [] args)     {         System.out.println ("\t\t\t\tDirectory\n");         System.out.print ("Name");         System.out.print ("\t                  Type");         System.out.print ("\tLast Modified");         System.out.println ("\t\t       Length (bytes)");         System.out.println ("");         String [] Directories;         String [] Files;         double [] Modified;         double [] theLength;         Files = new String [6];         Directories = new String [6];         Modified = new double [6];         theLength = new double [6];         File folder = new File ("F:/");         File [] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles ();         for (int i = 0 ; i < listOfFiles.length ; i++)             {                 long t = listOfFiles [i].lastModified ();                 Modified [0] = t;                 long s = listOfFiles [i].length ();                 theLength [0] = s;                 if (listOfFiles [i].isFile ())                 {                     Files [0] = listOfFiles [i].getName ();                     System.out.printf ("%-26s%s%-3s%s%-3s%s%n", Files [0], "FIL", "", new Date (t), "", theLength [0]);                 }                 else if (listOfFiles [i].isDirectory ())                 {                     Directories [0] = listOfFiles [i].getName ();                     System.out.printf ("%-26s%s%-3s%s%-3s%s%n", Directories [0], "DIR", "", new Date (t), "", theLength [0]);                 }             }     } }

Output



Thanks again
