Everything runs fine in my Java code except at the very end of the code. So basically I can't figure out how to print out the User's Number if it is the same. For example I am prompt the User for a starting number and an ending number (integers). So say the user enters in the same integer "10" for starting number and "10" for ending number. I want the output to only be "10" to be printed only just once. I've tried everything I can think of with trying While Loop, Do-While Loop, and For Loops but I just can't figure it out?
------------------------JAVA CODE BELOW-------------------------------------------
import java.util.Scanner;
public class LoopsAssignment {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// input Scanner
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
// ask user for a starting number and a ending number
System.out.println("Now I'll print whatever numbers you'd like!");
System.out.println("Give me a starting number: ");
startNum = input.nextInt();
System.out.println("Give me an ending number: ");
endNum = input.nextInt();
// count the users range of numbers
System.out.println("I counted your range of numbers: ");
int a = startNum;
int b = endNum;
while (a <= b) {
System.out.println(a);
a = a + 1;
}
while (a >= b) {
System.out.println(a);
a = a - 1;
}
while (a == b) {
System.out.println(a);
}
}
}
---------------------OUT PUT BELOW -----------------------------------------------------
Now I'll print whatever numbers you'd like! Give me a starting number: 10 Give me an ending number: 10 I counted your range of numbers: 10 11 10
----jGRASP: operation complete.
You could restructure your code as follows:
while (a < b) {
System.out.println(a);
a = a + 1;
}
while (a > b) {
System.out.println(a);
a = a - 1;
}
if (a == b) {
System.out.println(a);
}
You can use for loop
:
public static void printRange(int minInclusive, int maxInclusive) {
for (; minInclusive <= maxInclusive; minInclusive++)
System.out.println(minInclusive);
}
So you are either counting up, down or there's just one.
So
int step = endNum>startNum ? +1 : -1;
int a = startNum;
int b = endNum;
while (a != b) {
System.out.println(a);
a = a + step;
}
System.out.println(b);
Or put a break
in the middle of a for
loop. Also there's +=
, and a few things we can make more conventional.
int step = endNum>startNum ? +1 : -1;
for (int i=startNum; ; i+=step) {
System.out.println(i);
if (i == endNum) {
break;
}
}
The issue is in your first two while
loops where you are using " >=
" and " <=
". You can remove "="
from the condition.
However you can improve your code as suggested in other comments.
