Hi all,
Our professor is making us do some basic programming with java, he gaves a website and everything to register and submit our questions, for today I need to do this one example I feel like I'm on the right track but I just can't figure out the rest .. here is the actualy question :
**Sample Input:**
10 12
10 14
100 200
**Sample Output:**
2
4
100
And here is what I've got so far :
public class Practice {
public static int calculateAnswer(String a, String b) {
return (Integer.parseInt(b) - Integer.parseInt(a));
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println(calculateAnswer(args[0], args[1]));
}
}
Now I always get the answer 2 because I'm reading the single line, how can I take all lines into account? thank you
For some strange reason everytime I want to execute I get this error:
C:\sonic>java Practice.class 10 12
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Fact
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Fact.class

Could not find the main class: Practice.class. Program will exit.
Whosever version of answer I use I get this error, what do I do ?
However if I run it in eclipse Run as Run Configuration - Program arguments
10 12
10 14
100 200
I get no output
EDIT
I have made some progress, at first I was getting the compilation error, then runtime error and now I get wrong answer , so can anybody help me what is wrong with this :
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
import java.math.BigInteger;
public class Practice {
public static BigInteger calculateAnswer(String a, String b) {
BigInteger ab = new BigInteger(a);
BigInteger bc = new BigInteger(b);
return bc.subtract(ab);
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String line;
while ((line = stdin.readLine()) != null && line.length()!= 0) {
String[] input = line.split(" ");
if (input.length == 2) {
System.out.println(calculateAnswer(input[0], input[1]));
}
}
}
}
