Hello All,
I have stuck in a problem.
There are set of strings of different length. I have to remove repeated elements from all the strings except from the string in which it appeared first.
For example say the input strings are
"3 4 7 2 15 10"
"5 7 10 2"
"8 36 30 15 4"
"9 10 2 4 11 13 15"
"12 14 10 7 13 17 20 22 21 36"
then after the removal of repeated elements the output should be
"3 4 7 2 15 10"
"5"
"8 36 30"
"9 11 13"
"12 14 17 20 22 21"
Thanks in advance

So where is your code? What have you tried?
I have the code but it will be very difficult to understand by other person as it is a intermediate part of a big code. That is why I have just put the problem part with a toy question and expected answer.

That's not the only thing that's very difficult to understand...
Post the code you have, nobody is going to just give you the answers.

I have changed the code to make it simpler to understand. Hope You will be able to understand. other than that I am not an efficient programmer. I am from management side not from technical side thats why just usedthe basic function .
Code is as follows:
/
/kss[] contains set of sting ( input strings)
//kpp[] contains the set of desired strings ( i.e. output after removal of repeated elements)
//kppp[] is trim version of kpp[] and contain the after removal of the initial space.
// v is user defined parameter
// removeChar is a class used to remove element at a particular place.
// res [][] is a 2 D matrix that contain the membership values of different elements with //respect to different strings. The element with lower membership value is removed.
String kss[]=new String[v];
String kpp[]=new String[v];
String kt[]=new String[v];
BufferedReader bufferedReader1 = null;
bufferedReader1 = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("c:\\hard.txt"));
String line1 = null;
int i1=0;
while ((line1 = bufferedReader1.readLine()) != null)
{
kss[i1]=line1;
//System.out.println(kss[i1]);
i1++;
}
bufferedReader1.close();
int ippp=1;
//System.out.println("check0");
for(int ipp=0;ipp<i1;ipp++)
{
//System.out.println(i1);
int rp;
rp=ipp;
kpp[rp]=kss[ipp];
int iz=0;
kpp[ipp]=kss[ipp];
int ixx=ippp;
//if(kss[ipp]!=null)
//{
while(ippp<(i1+1))
{
if(kss[ippp]!=null)
{
int rint1=0;
//System.out.println("check2");
//System.out.println(kss[ipp]);
//System.out.println(kss[ippp]);
String[] temp1;
String[] temp2;
String delimiter=" ";
temp1 = kpp[rp].split(delimiter);
temp2 = kss[ippp].split(delimiter);
//System.out.println("temp2 length =" +temp2.length);
for (int ix=0;ix<temp1.length;ix++)
{
//System.out.println("check3");
for (int iy=0;iy<temp2.length;iy++)
{
//System.out.println("check4");
if(temp1[ix].equalsIgnoreCase(temp2[iy]))
{
//System.out.println("check5");
String tempstr=temp1[ix];
rint1=Integer.parseInt(tempstr);
int sy1=Integer.parseInt(temp1[0]);
int sy2=Integer.parseInt(temp2[0]);
if(res[sy1-1][(rint1-1)]<=res[sy2-1][(rint1-1)])
{
removeChar rc=new removeChar();
if(kpp[ipp]!=null)
{
iz=ix;
kpp[rp]=rc.removeCharAt(kpp[rp],iz);
kt[ipp]=kpp[rp].trim();
kpp[rp]=kt[ipp];
iz--;
}
}
}
}
iz++;
}
//iz=0;
//ippp++;
}
iz=0;
ippp++;
}
ippp=ixx;
ippp++;
}
for (int az=0; az<5;az++)
{
System.out.println(kpp[az]);
}Ok, there is no way I'm going to try to trace that mess of meaningless variable names, but I will say that all you need is a List or Set to keep the numbers you have already encountered and the String.replace() method.
In fact, you only need the list if you want to retain a listing of the unique numbers. If you just want to cleanse repetitions, all you need to do is loop forward and remove them.
I agree with Ezzaral, please name your variables something significant...
Lol break down the strings using split, make string arrays and use a removeSimilar method once you got 2 arrays to compare... It's not that difficult of a process.
Have tried as per the advice of Ezzaral ( please see the code pasted below)but there is some problem in output.
kss[] is a set of input string
Input :
"3 4 7 2 15 10"
"5 7 10 2"
"8 36 30 15 4"
"9 10 2 4 11 13 15"
"12 14 10 7 13 17 20 22 21 36"
expected output
3 4 7 2 15 10
5
8 36 30
9 11 13
12 14 17 20 22 21
But actual output is not exactly same as expected
actual output happens to be
3 4 7 2 15 10
5
8 36 30
9 11 13
12 14 1 20 22 21
problem in last line .
Any suggestion please
for(int ipp=0;ipp<(length-1);ipp++)
{
for (int is=ipp+1;is<length;is++)
{
String[] temp1;
String[] temp2;
String delimiter=" ";
temp1 = kss[ipp].split(delimiter);
temp2 = kss[is].split(delimiter);
for (int ix=0;ix<temp1.length;ix++)
{
for (int iy=0;iy<temp2.length;iy++)
{
if(temp1[ix].equalsIgnoreCase(temp2[iy]))
{
String tempstr=temp1[ix];
kss[is]=kss[is].replaceAll(tempstr, "");
kss[is]=kss[is].replaceAll(" \\s+", " ");// \s+ is a regular expression. \s matches a space, tab, new line, carriage return, form feed and vertical tab and + says "one or more of those". Thus it will collapse all "whitespace substrings" longer than one character, with a single space character.
