Is null an instance of anything? No, there is no type which null is an instanceof. 15.20.2 Type Comparison Operator instanceof At run time, the result of the instanceof operator is true if the value of the RelationalExpression is not null and the reference could be cast to the ReferenceType without raising a ClassCastException. Otherwise the result is false. This means that for any type E and R, for any E o, where o == null, o … Read more
Java 8 introduces a String.join(separator, list) method; see Vitalii Federenko’s answer. Before Java 8, using a loop to iterate over the ArrayList was the only option: DO NOT use this code, continue reading to the bottom of this answer to see why it is not desirable, and which code should be used instead: In fact, a string concatenation is going … Read more
Your algorithm is fine. However int is too small for your computations, it fails for this input: At some point integer overflows to negative value and your implementation goes crazy, recursing infinitely. Change int num to long num and you’ll be fine – for some time. Later you’ll need BigInteger. Note that according to Wikipedia on Collatz conjecture (bold mine): The longest progression for … Read more
How do I generate a random int value in a specific range? I have tried the following, but those do not work: Attempt 1: Bug: randomNum can be bigger than maximum. Attempt 2: Bug: randomNum can be smaller than minimum.
As the documentation says, this method call returns “a pseudorandom, uniformly distributed int value between 0 (inclusive) and the specified value (exclusive)”. This means that you will get numbers from 0 to 9 in your case. So you’ve done everything correctly by adding one to that number. Generally speaking, if you need to generate numbers from min to max (including both), … Read more
So, you have a com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link failurejava.net.ConnectException: Connection refused I’m quoting from this answer which also contains a step-by-step MySQL+JDBC tutorial: If you get a SQLException: Connection refused or Connection timed out or a MySQL specific CommunicationsException: Communications link failure, then it means that the DB isn’t reachable at all. This can have one or more of the following causes: IP … Read more
