JavaScript - Help With Arrays And Functions
Hi, new to this forum but have a quick question about arrays, I've been working on this all night, and I'm at a loss. I'm trying to calculate the gpa of a user by using arrays and functions. Everything seems to be working besides two things.
The array that contains the class names (className[]) always includes an extra two variables: my sentinel value which is finish, and "undefined"
The arrays at the end won't produce a number when multiplied together. creditData[] and qualityPoints[].
Also, if you have any suggestions on my code, I'd appreciate it. <script type="text/javascript"> <!-- /**************************************************************** ** PrintExplanation - prints a message containing instructions to the user without ** any variable needed. ** Inputs:None ** Outputs:None ****************************************************************/ function PrintExplanation() { alert("This program will calculate your Grade Point Average for any given semester.

Almost every example I see uses arrays, such as this one he http://www.codingforums.com/showthread.php?t=4313 Is it possible to not use arrays to form the average? Please describe how to do this in general terms, as was highlighted in that link ^^^ I want to learn, not copy, although one can be derived from the other... What I haveso far, assume all vars have been announced. Code: for (var d=1; d<=numofinputs; d=d+1) { input = prompt("Enter a data input" + d) } Is it possible I'm attempting this in too general a manner? ie, running before I can walk. Ok so im stuck (again) and going to try another late night getting this program to do what I want. I assume many of you have heard of ducci's game, then here is a link which will probably make it a bit more obvious http://demonstrations.wolfram.com/TheFourNumberGame/ so basically making a program that can do that, there is obviously many easy-er ways to go about doing this including... Code: function difference(numberArray) { var numLen=numberArray.length var iteration=0 var diffArray var zero document.writeln(numberArray+'<br>') do { diffArray=[] for (var i=0;i<numLen;i++) diffArray.push(Math.abs(numberArray[i]-numberArray[(i+1)%numLen])) numberArray=diffArray zero=true for (var i=0;i<numLen;i++) if (numberArray[i]) zero=false document.writeln(numberArray+'<br>') iteration++ } while (!zero) document.writeln('Iterations taken : '+iteration+'<br>') } difference([24,44,81,149]) so that codedoes everything CORRECTLY and displays it all properly... but not how I'm allowed to do it according to the question as that just has everything done under one function in one easy go ... the way I have been told to do it is by utilising 3 functions In the code below you can see how it is meant to be set out, with the comment explaining/saying what each function should do. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> //will tell you the difference between firstNumber and SecondNumber. // Number returned will always be ABOVE or Equal to 0 so will need to subtract from the higher number. function difference () var firstNumber; secondNumber; document.writeln(numberArray+'<br>') { } //will calculate the total of numbers in the array to see if they equal 0 and display total //The iteration from each square to the next square must continue until all the numbers are zero. //use function sum() that calculate the total of the numbers //If the value returned by this function is 0 then all the individual values must be zero because none of them is negative. // Write the function sum(), which should accept an array numberArray and return the sum of the numbers. function sum(numberArray) {} //makes a new array containing the differences between the pairs of numbers and then display it. //code the process that calculates a new array containing //the differences between all the pairs of adjacent numbers, using the difference() function you have already written. function calculateDifferences(numberArray) var difference; {} //Array which holds the numbers at the four corners of the square. var numberArray = [24,44,81,149];//Edit this line to change the starting numbers document.write(numberArray +'<BR>'); </SCRIPT> as im not allowed to use the first code and have to have it this long way I cant really work out how to do it :/ (im being stupid) like always i'd like to say I do want to learn so push me in the right direction and hint rather then tell me the answer as i'd prefer to make mistakes and learn to get around them etc (im currently NOT at home aswell so dont have any of my textbooks due to family issues arising and I do need to get this done so everything will be done online including research etc.) so where should I start as tbh the way it's done in the first example is well.. correct :/ and im not sure how to get it to use the 2 arguements to calculate each and every difference from in the array (and then looping around again from the last number onwards.. I need to loop the alphabet and numbers 0-9 to initialize a few thousand arrays. This is for my site and is truly needed. http://www.thefreemenu.com I currently have every array written out and it takes up to much space in my .js file. The majority of my variables are empty but necessary and need to be there (including empty) for my site to work properly. Question is the last part Here's where I'm at. Code: var NewVarLetterOrNum = "a"; eval("_oneofseveralnames_" + NewVarLetterOrNum + "='this part works';"); alert(_oneofseveralnames_a); This creates the variable _oneofseveralnames_a='this part works' Code: var newArrayLetterOrNum = "a"; eval("_oneofseveralnames_" + newArrayLetterOrNum + "= new Array();"); alert(_oneofseveralnames_a) This creates the Array _oneofseveralnames_a=new Array(); and all the values in the array are null, but, now a variable like _nl_a[1]='something' can be used elsewhere because the array exists. This is all that is necessary for now because I can probably set all the variables to be blank with something like Code: i=1 while(i<=20){ _oneofseveralnames_a[i]="1-20"; i++ } alert(_oneofseveralnames_[20]); So now you have what I came to understand in the first few hours. Now to the hard part : ( I can't make multiple array's dynamically. I dont' know if its because I don't understand loops or arrays or what and its very fustrating. As for any answer you might be so kind as to provide, if you could dumb it down that would be greatly appreciated. Code: var newArray =new Array('a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m','n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z') i=1 while(i<=26){ eval("_nl_" + newArray[i] + "= new Array();"); i++ } alert(newArray[1]) // Is b, but alert(_nl_b) //I can't get _nl_b to exist, I tried everything including taking away the quotes around the letters in every test */ var _nl_a =new Array() var _img_a =new Array() var _h_a =new Array() var _r_a =new Array() var _m_a =new Array() var _yt_a =new Array() var _i_a =new Array() The above arrays are all the array _name_ parts I need but for example, a has 10 parts, a,p2_a,p3_a,.. p10_a. I need 10 pages for each letter of the alphabet and numbers 0-9 and a special all1, p2_all1 ... p10_all1. Overall 2200 arrays that need to be declared. Currently they are all written out. /* Hi, I have written a number of functions designed to return frequency data on 1000 randomly chosen numbers using different math functions for the rounding. I would like to include all of these functions within the wrapper of another function so that only one call is needed to get returns from all of the 'inner' functions. However, while each of the functions works in isolation, the moment I wrap them in another function they stop working. The following code is one of the functions 'frequencyWrapperOne' that has been wrapped in the function 'testWrapper'. A call to testWrapper does nothing. Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Code: function testWrapper() { function frequencyWrapperOne() { var numberArrayOne = new Array(0,0,0); for (var i = 0; i < 1000; i = i + 1) { var chosenNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 3); if (chosenNumber == 0) { numberArrayOne[0] = numberArrayOne[0] + 1; } if (chosenNumber == 1) { numberArrayOne[1] = numberArrayOne[1] + 1; } if (chosenNumber == 2) { numberArrayOne[2] = numberArrayOne[2] + 1; } } return window.alert(numberArrayOne.join(',')); } } testWrapper(); Thanks. Ok here is what I have so far, my ending part of my Call Function I think is ok. for my main function. I think I misplaced the { and } I will show you all the codes I have for my main function this is what I have I think I did misplace something but I can not pin point where that one small things should be Code: unction showResults(race,name,party,votes) { // script element to display the results of a particular race var totalV = totalVotes(votes); document.write("<h2>" + race + "</h2>"); document.write("<table cellspacing='0'>"); document.write("<tr>"); document.write("<th>Candidate</th>"); document.write("<th class ='num'>Votes</th>"); document.write("<th class='num'>%</th>"); document.write("</tr>"); } for (var i=0; i < name.length; i++) { document.write("<tr>"); document.write("<td>" name[i] + "(" + party[i] + ")</td>"); document.write("td class='num'>" + votes[i] + "</td>"); var percent=calcPercent(votes[i], totalV) document.write("<td class='num'>(" + percent +"%)</td>"); createBar(party[i],percent) document.write("</tr>"); } document.write("</table>"); } </script> Just wondering if i misplaced any ; or { or } anywhere suggestions? Here is my call function Code: <script type="text/javascript"> showResults(race[0],name1,party1,votes1); showResults(race[1],name2,party2,votes2); showResults(race[2],name3,party3,votes3); showResults(race[3],name4,party4,votes4); showResults(race[4],name5,party5,votes5); </script> I been going over this, I can not seem to figure out what { i might be missing? Thanks Is there a way to activate a function from another function? It has to be in the script tag, it can't be in the HTML section. Can I use something similar to this following code? If not, can anyone give me some help? I have tried to do it various ways, and have looked it up a few times, but to no avail. Can I use something similar to this following code? If not, can anyone give me some help? if (condition) {activate functionname();} Any help I can get would be appreciated. Thanks a lot to anyone who can help. . Why do we have functions without parentheses at times? Ex 1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHYFNDzlDTE (On 2:18) Ex 2) At the bottom: Code: var panel, flag; function mousemoveResponse(e) { var x, y; if( window.event ) { x= event.x; y=event.y; } else if(e) { x=e.pageX; y=e.pageY; } if(flag) { panel.innerHTML = "Mouse is at X: " + x + ", Y: " + y ; } } function mouseoverResponse() { flag = false; panel.innerHTML = "Mouse is Over"; } function mouseoutResponse() { flag = true ; } function init() { panel=document.getElementById("panel"); flag = true; panel.innerHTML="Move the mouse..." ; document.onmousemove=mousemoveResponse; panel.onmouseover=mouseoverResponse; panel.onmouseout=mouseoutResponse; } onload=init; Code: <html> <head> <script> //declare variable //var temp = 0; var Num = parseInt(prompt('Enter an Intger')); // starts the function factorial factorial(Num); //The function is declared function factorial(currentNumber) { if(currentNumber > 1) { //temp = temp + (currentNumber); factorial(currentNumber - 1); alert(currentNumber); } else { alert("here"); } } </script> </head> <body> </body> </html> This code is suppose to take the prompt number and keep subtracting one if > 1 but it seems to be not doing that at all and doing the else statement first then + till it gets to the prompt number. I have been staring at it for a while now and cant work it out. Thanks Hi, I am creating a mashUp with google maps and have a function that creates the map, marker, infowindow and all works great. I want to add more functions to that functions file. Do I start with another function Name() put my function in the {} and then I am going to use the onclick event when I want the function to run. I also am going to add more functions to this file Is that the correct way to keep adding functions? And what is the best way of calling them in my html file? Answers and examples would be great thank you I need to input the functions for the buttons ( Push, Pop,Peek, Enqueue, and Dequeue) nothing I try works. Can anyone possible help me with one of the push, pop or peek, and then one of the Enqueue or Dequeue (any information I see online always has to do with wordpress which im not using) .

I think my brain would have exploded otherwize. Some of the problems have been simple misspellings, but when you have been staring at the same thing for hours it can sorta slip by. HOPEFULLY this will be the last thing that I need some help with. Bascially Im not sure if Im using the function command properly. When Submit Details is click it should validate the form and then when Calculate is pressed calculate the form (obviously). I think maybe my var Array table is wrong? And the way the functions are set out doesnt seem it sit right. Code: <script type="text/javascript"> var element; var itemArray = new Array(); itemArray [0] = "Bike" //not sure if these are properly writen?// itemArray [1] = "TV" itemArray [2] = "iPod" itemArray [3] = "Car" var flag="OK"; var count = 0 document.write ("<form name='myform'><br><table>"); while (count <= 3) { if (count < 3) { document.write ("<tr><td><value>Enter money from " + itemArray [count] + " sale.</td><td><input type='text' name=" + itemArray [count] + "></td></tr>"); count++ } else { document.write ("<tr><td><value>Enter the price of " + itemArray [count] + ".</td><td><input type='text' name=" + itemArray [count] + "></td></tr>"); document.write ("<tr><td><input type='submit' value='Submit Details' onClick='validateform'</td></tr>"); document.write ("<tr><td><input type='submit' value='Calculate Details' onClick='calculateform'</td></tr></table></form>"); count++ } } function validateform() //<=== doesnt run { element=document.getElementsByTagName ('input'); for (counter=0; counter<element.length; counter++) { switch (element[counter].type) { case "submit": break; default: if (isNaN(element[counter].value) || (element[counter].value == "") ) { alert("You need to enter a number into " + element[counter].name); flag="NotOK" } else { Bike=element[0].value; TV=element[1].value; iPod=element[2].value; Car=element[3].value; } break; } } } function calculateform() //<=== Doesnt run either { if (flag=="OK") { if ( (Number(element[Bike])) && (Number(element[TV])) && (Number(element[iPod])) && (Number(element[Car])) ) //<========= Gets Bike is not defined error easy// { TotalMoney= parseFloat (Bike) + parseFloat (TV) + parseFloat (iPod) if (TotalMoney >= Car) { alert ("The total money is " + TotalMoney + " and the car price is " + Car + " and you can afford the car") } else { alert ("The total money is " + TotalMoney + " and the car price is " + Car + " and you cannot afford the car") } } } } </script> I'm a newbie student coder for now, hoping to enter the wonderful world of software engineering in another year. I put together a very simple site for a class and all is well, but my "Contact SRS" form doesn't seem to want to run my JavaScript code even though I've used a JS debugger which returned no errors. When I click the Submit button it's supposed to validate the form. But I keep getting "Error on page" in the bottom IE 7 message bar (where it usually says "Done" when you load a page). There is another function that also does not work - it's in the Telephone number fields - it' supposed to check that the values entered are numbers. Would anyone be kind enough to try to run this page in your browser and see if the validation functions runs for you? If they don't, could you offer any suggestions as to code errors or possible browser settings that might be causing the problem? Thanks in advance to anyone offering their time!!!

Hello all, I’ve got a homework to do and I'm stuck, as you can see i have done all the function's (i think they are ok but not shure) with a main program I'm stuck don’t know even where to begin :/ could anyone please please help a bit? best regards <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE> The game of 21 </TITLE> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE = "JavaScript"> //FUNCTIONS /* *removes a given number of sticks * *function takes one argument numberToRemove that represents the number of sticks to be removed * if numberToRemove is more than numberOfSticks, reduces numberOfSticks to 0 * otherwise reduces numberOfSticks by numberToRemove *function returns no value */ function removeSticks(numberToRemove) { if (numberOfSticks< numberToRemove) { numberOfSticks =0 } else { (numberOfSticks = numberOfSticks - numberToRemove); } } /* *switches current player * *function takes no argument * if current player is 1, sets current player to 2 * otherwise sets current player to 1 *function returns no value */ function switchCurrentPlayer() { if (currentPlayer ==1) { return currentPlayer = 2; } { return currentPlayer = 1; } } /* *gets a number from a prompt dialogue * *function takes no argument * prompts the current player for a number of sticks to remove, with a suitable message *function returns the number the player enters */ function getChosenNumber() { ChosenNumber = window.prompt('Player ' + currentPlayer + ': Please enter either 1, 2 OR 3.'); return ChosenNumber; } //VARIABLES -- do not change this section var numberOfSticks = 21;//number of matchsticks, initially 21 var currentPlayer = 1;//player whose turn it is, Player 1 goes first var numberChosen;//variable used to hold the number the current player chooses //MAIN PROGRAM The players take turns to choose how many matches to remove, as long as there are still matches left. After each go the program outputs the number of matches that still remain and if this number is zero a message is displayed to say the current player is the winner. The turn then passes to the other player. </SCRIPT> </HEAD> <BODY> </BODY> </HTML> Using this: Code: clip.addEventListener( 'onMouseDown', my_mouse_down_handler ); function my_mouse_down_handler(client) { alert( "mouse button is down" ); } How can integrate this jQuery function so that the quick-alert div is displayed instead of alert( "mouse button is down" ); ? Code: $(document).ready(function() { $('#show-alert').click(function() { $('<div class="quick-alert">Alert Message</div>') .insertAfter($(this)) .fadeIn('slow') .animate({opacity: 1.0}, 3000) .fadeOut('slow', function() { $(this).remove(); }); }); }); Below are 2 JS functions I currently use on a site but as it is if the checkbox (1st function) is not ticked & the submit button is clicked the alert box shows but the progress image (2nd function) also shows, I was wondering if it is possible to merge these 2 together so that the progress image will only show if all criterias are filled ie the checkbox is ticked... and if so how it can be done or should I say can you post the code as I have no idea about JS these are just 2 snippets I found Code: function validate(form) { if(!document.theform.terms.checked){alert("Please read our terms and check the box"); return false; } return true; } Code: function loadSubmit() { var ProgressImage = document.getElementById('progress_image'); document.getElementById("progress").style.visibility = "visible"; setTimeout(function(){ProgressImage.src = ProgressImage.src},100); return true; } If it helps or relevant ... The form: Code: <form action="xxx.php" method="post" name="theform" onsubmit="return validate(this)"> The progress bar/image: Code: <input name="submit" type="submit" value="submit" class="contSubmit" id="btn" onclick="return loadSubmit()"> <p style="visibility:hidden;" id="progress"/><img id="progress_image" src="images/image.gif" alt=""><br />In Progress ...<p> Thank you in advance for any help |
