Sometime back we were given a java assignment but I realized the concepts looked easy but some of my friends had problems implementing them that is why I have decided to be sharing some of the java assignments that I have done in the past to help students and learners who are new to programming in java.
Question:
Write a function int findMin (int[] numbers), which yields the smallest element of numbers that contains positive integers. The result shall be -1, if numbers has the value null or the array does exclusively contain positive integers. Use several test cases.
Java Source Code:
public class FindingMinimum {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// int[] numbers =null;
// System.out.println(x);
// int[] numbers= {2,3,4,5,6,20,1,-5};
int[] numbers = { 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 20, 1 };
//int[] numbersSet1= {2,3,4,5,6,20,1,-5};
int minimumNumber = findMin(numbers);
System.out.println("The Minimum number is :\t"+minimumNumber);
//minimumNumber = findMin(numbersSet1);
//System.out.println("The Minimum number is :\t"+minimumNumber);
}
static int findMin(int[] numbers) {
int minValue = numbers[0];
if (isExclusivePositive(numbers)) {
for (int i = 1; i < numbers.length; i++) {
if (numbers[i] < minValue) {
minValue = numbers[i];
}
}
} else {
minValue = -1;
}
return minValue;
}
static boolean isExclusivePositive(int[] numbers) {
int value = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) {
value = numbers[i];
if (value < 0)
return false;
}
return true;
}
}
Output:
The Minimum number is : 1
