在java中订购字符串

标签: java arrays string alphabetical

我有一个赋值,我应该创建一个对象,初始化一个字符串数组,使其具有“size”元素,并且使用的元素数量等于0。

我的问题是当我试图比较字符串以按字母顺序排列时。

int compare = storage[index].compareTo(value);
if (compare < 0)

那就是我得到nullpointerexception的运行时错误

这是我的完整代码。

package assignment2;
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        OrderedStringList myList = new OrderedStringList(5);

        System.out.println("adding 10, 5, & 7");
        myList.Insert("10");
        myList.Insert("5");
        myList.Insert("7");

        myList.Display();

        System.out.println("Value 4 find = "+ myList.Find("4"));
        System.out.println("Value 7 find = "+ myList.Find("7"));

        System.out.println("Adding 24 & 3");
        myList.Insert("24");
        myList.Insert("3");

        myList.Display();

        System.out.println("myList size: "+ myList.Size());

        if (!myList.Insert("12"))
            System.out.println("Could not add 12, full");

        System.out.println("Removing 10, adding 12.");
        myList.Delete("10");
        myList.Insert("12");

        myList.Display();
    }
}

4 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:1)

应该是

while(index < numUsed)

如果使用&lt; =,您将始终在空列表中访问索引0,该列表将为null。然后,当你尝试调用compareTo时,它会抛出一个NPE。

另外,如果null是要添加到列表中的合法值,则需要对compareTo调用进行空检查,并确定null是按字母顺序排在第一位还是最后一位。

您可以使用Arrays#sort维护订单,它已在库中提供。

public boolean Insert(String value){
    boolean result = false;

    if (numUsed < length) {
        storage[index] = value;
        numUsed++;
        result = true;
        Arrays.sort(storage); 
    }
    return result;
}

答案 2 :(得分:0)

原因如下:

public boolean Insert(String value){
    boolean result = false;
            int index = 0;
            if (numUsed < length) {
                while (index <= numUsed) { // Here the first time numUsed = 0, index = 0, index <= numUsed;
                    int compare = storage[index].compareTo(value); // The first time, storage[0] == null; NullPointException is thrown
                    if (compare < 0)
                        index++;
                }
                moveItemsDown(index);
                storage[index] = value;
                numUsed++;
                result = true;
            }
            return result;
}

也许将<=更改为<会这样做吗?

第一次运行此行

int compare = storage[index].compareTo(value);

您正在比较storage[index]哪个值为nullvalue not null or empty

使平稳运行 取代

          while(index =< numUsed) {
        int compare = storage[index].compareTo(value);
        if(compare < 0)
            index++;
    }

 while(index < numUsed) {
        int compare = storage[index].compareTo(value);
        if(compare < 0)
            index++;
    }
