New to this, need help with arrays please.

I am trying to make a function that checks to see if my array is full, and if it is, 5 slots are added to the end of the array. This is waht I havve so far, I've been given two errors.

publicvoid add(double opening,double high,double low,double closing,long volume)

{

Cdate.add(Calendar.DATE, 1);

if(Cdate.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) == Calendar.SATURDAY)

{

Cdate.add(Calendar.DATE, 2);

}

DailyInfo[] D2 = newDailyInfo[currentSize];

->if(DailyInfo D2[D1[].length] = D1[] - 1)

{

currentSize = currentSize + 5;

D2 = D1.clone();

D1 = D2;

}

->}

I get a ' ) ' expected error on the top arrow

I get an 'Illeal start of expression' errow on the bottom arrow.

Any Idea why? And I just missing something really simple?

Can you explain what you expect this line to do?if(DailyInfo D2[D1[].length] = D1[] - 1)

There's several problem with it and it may be causing the second error. You definitely want to remove the DailyInfo and use == instead of =, but I can't figure out what you want "D1[]-1" to do.

WEll, I'm past that. I'm now trying to construct an array that has six bvariables per slot. A GregorianCalander, four doubles and one long.

this is the coding I ahve so far.

import java.lang.*;

import java.util.*;

import java.io.*;

public class Company{

DailyInfo[] D1;

final int BASESIZE = 5;

int current=0;

GregorianCalendar Cdate;

String name, symbol;

public void Company(String Cname, String Csymbol, GregorianCalendar

startDate)

{

//D1 = new DailyInfo[BASESIZE];

name = Cname;

symbol = Csymbol;

Cdate = (GregorianCalendar)startDate.clone();

System.out.printf("\n\n%tm/%1$td/%1$tY%n", Cdate);

}

public void add(double opening, double high, double low, double closing,

long volume)

{

Cdate.add(Calendar.DATE, 1);

current++;

if(Cdate.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK) == Calendar.SATURDAY)

{

Cdate.add(Calendar.DATE, 2);

}

if(current>=D1.length)

{

DailyInfo[] D2 = new DailyInfo[current+5];

D2 = D1.clone();

D1 = D2;

}

DailyInfo[] D1 = new DailyInfo(GregorianCalendar, double, double, double, double, long)

}

public double getHighest()

{

int cur = 0;

for(int high=0; high <= current; high++)

{

if(D1[high].high > cur)

cur = D1[high];

}

return(cur);

}

public double getLowest()

{

int curr = 10000000;

for(int low=0; low <= current; low++)

{

if(D1[low].low < curr)

curr = D1[low];

}

return(curr);

}

public String toString()

{

return(null);

}

}

ummm, sry, I wasn't to explicit in what I was trying to accomplish or what my problem was.

[code]DailyInfo[] D1 = new DailyInfo(GregorianCalendar, double, double, double, double, long);/code

its saying: Class Expected and ')' expected. on that line of code. and I apologize for the spacing, my program isn't great for copy paste.

allright, figured out the class problem. I still have the ' ) ' expected error.DailyInfo[] D1 = new DailyInfo[GregorianCalendar, double, double, double, double, long];

code]DailyInfo[] D1 = new DailyInfo[GregorianCalendar, double, double, double, double, long];[/code]Are you trying to declare an array or trying to instantiate a D1 object? The left side of the = is declaring an array. Then "new DailInfo" is the start of instantiating an object. But then you have the arguments inside [ and ]. And you need to supply variable names for the arguments. My guess is you meanDailyInfo D1 = new DailyInfo(GregorianCalendar cal, double first ,

double second, double third, double fourth, long fifth);

yeah, that's what I'm looking for, and i've tried that before

DailyInfo D1 = new DailyInfo(GregorianCalendar date, double opening , double high, double low, double closing, long volume);

That's what I have inputted based on what you said. It has all the variable names I am looking for.

I still get the ' ] ' expected though... I'm beggining to think its just the program.

I also tried

DailyInfo[] D1 = new DailyInfo(GregorianCalendar date, double opening , double high, double low, double closing, long volume);
