Quick beginner Java help pls

public class MaxBalanceProcessor extends AccountProcessor
{
public void processAccounts()
{
double maxBalance = account[0].getBalance();
for (int k = 1; k < account.length; k++)
{
double balance = account[k].getBalance();
if (balance > maxBalance)
maxBalance = balance;
}
System.out.println("The maximum balance is " + maxBalance);
}
}


How would I go about:
a) changing it so that it finds the minimum balance instead & displays the ones in the array having the minimum balance
b) displays the ones in the array with balance less than $1000?

I think I know how to find the minimum balance by modifying that IF statement.. but do I just use another IF statement to display the accounts that are the minimum?

asking for people to do your homework for you eh?

you should post a link to the code, the forum totally screws the intentation.

You can deposit my fee in my paypal account, hehe.


(A)
public class MinBalanceProcessor extends AccountProcessor
{
public void processAccounts()
{
double minBalance = account[0].getBalance();
for (int k = 1; k < account.length; k++)
{
double balance = account[k].getBalance();
if (balance < minBalance )
minBalance = balance;
}
System.out.println("The minimum balance is " + minBalance );
}
}

(B)
public class LessBalanceProcessor extends AccountProcessor
{
public void processAccounts()
{
System.out.println( "Balances less than a $1000: " );
for (int k = 0; k < account.length; k++)
{
double balance = account[k].getBalance();
if (balance < 1000 )
System.out.println( "$" + balance );
}
}
}

Well it was a question on a test I didn't get so I wanna figure it out. But yeah.. I don't really get it.

wow man, i dont know a bit of java but that's some pretty simple code. you really should do a bit more studying or something instead of asking for answers on the internet...

 

[LuDaCriS66]

well crap... programming screws with my brain. I can never think of the code but when it's right in front of me it seems to simple...

thanks joeSmack

I been there man. My first CS course I was racking my brain trying to understand the concept of the while loop. Hehe.

Here are some tips:
1. Practice coding as much as possible.
2. Do your own stuff. Nothing too hard, keep it fun.
3. Program a little at a time to limit the number of potential bugs.
