See, that's predicated on the knowledge I actually know Java.

I know basic Javascript, and HTML.

 

I will be starting CS classes next semester...

Well.......yeah

 

 

If you were working in C++ I would be a lot more help, as I've not learned Java yet

I don't know any languages. *Gets booed out*

The real question here is, does my description of how to pull of the top three grossing films button sound reasonable and correct? Because I would assume after a semester of this course you would know enough Java to be able to handle three simple arrays in a loop

Bah to Java.

Perl solution:

[spoiler][size=1]open $movie_database, "<", "movie.dat";

while (<$movie_database>) {
 next unless /\$(\d+)\s+\$(\d+)/;
 $this_gross=$1+$2;
 $this_movie=unpack('A*',substr($_,8,40));
 if ($this_gross>$top3_gross) {
   if ($this_gross>$top2_gross) {
       if ($this_gross>$top1_gross) {
           $top3_movie=$top2_movie;
           $top3_gross=$top2_gross;
           $top2_movie=$top1_movie;
           $top2_gross=$top1_gross;
           $top1_movie=$this_movie;
           $top1_gross=$this_gross;
       }
       else {
           $top3_movie=$top2_movie;
           $top3_gross=$top2_gross;
           $top2_movie=$this_movie;
           $top2_gross=$this_gross;
       }
   }
   else {
      $top3_movie=$this_movie;
      $top3_gross=$this_gross;
   }
 }
}
close $movie_database;
printf "Top 3 Movies:\n%s \$%d\n%s \$%d\n%s \$%d",
  $top1_movie, $top1_gross,
  $top2_movie, $top2_gross,
  $top3_movie, $top3_gross;

There is a [ code ] tag, 102.

 

cls
if thread$ = "geeky" then
 print "This is the geekiest thread... EVAR."
end if

 

This is the geekiest thread... EVAR.

 

 

 

Gimme a break, all I know is QBasic.

[tk102]

the code tag doesn't work well with the spoiler tag.

 

 

 

Test

 

 

Oh.. this works...

[spoiler]test[/spoiler]

Fixed.
