Calculating a number in a category

Question

jdbarry 0 Newbie Poster

15 Years Ago

I have a slight problem here. I am writing a program that reads in a lot of hurricane data. As you can see in my code, I have read in information from the hurricane category array(this array keeps track of what category each hurricane was). I am trying to figure out how many (what number) of hurricanes there was in each category. So, I am wondering how I can calculate how many hurricanes are in each category. Does anybody know anything about this?

/**
 * The purpose of this program is to calculate the average category, 
 * pressure, and wind speed of all Atlantic Hurricanes which have 
 * occured from 1980-2006. It also tallys the number of storms in
 * each category,

Well, you definitely need to replace all of those print statements with a loop that prints each line item from the array. There is absolutely no reason to type all of that in manually - it only differs by the array index.

I'd recommend writing a small data class (a struct if you have a c background) to hold the data for each of your entries. i.e.

class HurricaneEntry{
    int year;
    String name;
    int category;
    float pressure;
    float windspeed;
}

For your frequency count on the categories, a HashMap is useful.

Your code is an ideal candidate for:

1) A class: You have a whole bunch of attributes which you are storing in separate arrays. Make a class and make a single array of that class.

2) A loop: You have a bunch of print statements where you display information, about 60 or so, but they are displaying elements of the arrays. Shorten the code considerably by putting it in a loop.

3) Removal of code from main - Everything is in the main function. Create a class or class or classes and put the code in there. Your main function shouldn't have all of that in there. You have a Hurricanes2 class, but you don't do anything with it. You just have a big main function in it. Treat it as a class, create some class variables, etc.

Anything that can be categorized can be counted, it seems to me. You have a category variable called theCategory. It's hard to give much advice till the code is redesigned, but I'd have a Hurricane class with "category" as a data member of the class. You could have sub-classes of that, one for each type of Hurricane, but that may not be necessary. Set up some type of counter variable and when you create a new Hurricane object, increment the counter for that particular Hurricane category. Or have a Collection for each Hurricane category, like a Vector, which will do the counting for you. But I think a major redesign of the program is needed regardless of the counting, and that redesign should make it easy to count.
