We Keep Coding

how to get any number of inputs from user and put it into a "params" method in c#?

so we can give any number of parameters to a method, like this:
static int sumPrices(params int[] prices) {
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < prices.Length; i++) {
sum += prices[i];
}
return sum;
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int total = sumPrices(100, 50, 200, 350);
Console.WriteLine(total);
Console.ReadKey();
}
but ... what if we wanted to get the "100, 50, 200, 350" from the USER?
in above example it's the coder giving the sumPrices method its arguments/parameters.
i mean, it would be one solution to just pass the method an array.
static int sumPrices(int[] prices) {
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < prices.Length; i++) {
sum += prices[i];
}
return sum;
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//get up to 9999 inputs and sum them using a method
bool whileLoop = true;
int[] inputs = new int[9999];
int index = 0;
while (whileLoop == true)
{
Console.WriteLine("entering price #" + index + ", type 'stop' to sum prices");
string check = Console.ReadLine();
if (check == "stop") {
whileLoop = false;
break;
}
inputs[index] = int.Parse(check);
index++;
}
int[] prices = new int[index];
for (int i = 0; i < index; i++)
{
prices[i] = inputs[i];
}
Console.WriteLine("-----------------");
Console.WriteLine(sumPrices(prices));
Console.ReadKey();
}
BUT... longer code... and has limits.
our professor basically wanted the first code, however, i don't see how and where it's
supposed be used if we didn't know the user's inputs and if params arguments were coming from the coder (unless of course, coder using the same function multiple times for convenience)
i have tried to think of a solution and i'm not exactly sure how it could be done.
but it basically goes like this.
we could get inputs from the user separated by commas:
100,200,50
and the program would translate it into params arguments:
sumPrices("100,200,50");
but as you can see... it's a string. i wonder if there's a JSON.parse() thing like in js.

The code in the OP has some unnecessary code as well as some limitations such as 9999.
Let's examine the following code:
bool whileLoop = true;
while (whileLoop == true)
{
}
This could be re-written as:
while (true == true)
{
}
or
while (true)
{
}
Next, let's examine the following code:
if (check == "stop") {
whileLoop = false;
break;
}
You've set whileLoop = false; which is unnecessary because once break is executed, excution has moved to after the loop.
Since the input array has a hard-code size of 9999, you've limited yourself to 9999 values. You may consider using a List instead or resize the array.
Try the following:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
namespace UserInputTest
{
internal class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
decimal price = 0;
List<decimal> _values = new List<decimal>();
if (args.Length == 0)
{
//prompts for user input
Console.WriteLine("The following program will sum the prices that are entered. To exit, type 'q'");
do
{
Console.Write("Please enter a price: ");
string userInput = Console.ReadLine();
if (userInput.ToLower() == "q")
break; //exit loop
else if (Decimal.TryParse(userInput, out price))
_values.Add(price); //if the user input can be converted to a decimal, add it to the list
else
Console.WriteLine($"Error: Invalid price ('{userInput}'). Please try again.");
} while (true);
}
else
{
//reads input from command-line arguments instead of prompting for user input
foreach (string arg in args)
{
if (Decimal.TryParse(arg, out price))
{
//if the user input can be converted to a decimal, add it to the list
_values.Add(price); //add
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine($"Error: Invalid price ('{arg}'). Exiting.");
Environment.Exit(-1);
}
}
}
Console.WriteLine($"\nThe sum is: {SumPrices(_values)}");
}
static decimal SumPrices(List<decimal> prices)
{
return prices.Sum(x => x);
}
static decimal SumPricesF(List<decimal> prices)
{
decimal sum = 0;
foreach (decimal price in prices)
sum += price;
return sum;
}
}
}

The trick is input from the user always starts out as strings. You must parse those strings into integers. We can do it in very little code like this:
static int sumPrices(IEnumerable<int> prices)
{
return prices.Sum();
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int total = sumPrices(args.Select(int.Parse));
Console.WriteLine(total);
Console.ReadKey();
}
See it here (with adjustments for the sandbox environment):
https://dotnetfiddle.net/Pv6B6e
Note this assumes a perfect typist. There is no error checking if a provided value will not parse.
But I doubt using linq operations are expected in an early school project, so we can expand this a little bit to only use techniques that are more familiar:
static int sumPrices(int[] prices)
{
int total = 0;
foreach(int price in prices)
{
total += price;
}
return total;
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int[] prices = new int[args.Length];
for(int i = 0; i<args.Length; i++)
{
prices[i] = int.Parse(args[i]);
}
int total = sumPrices(prices);
Console.WriteLine(total);
Console.ReadKey();
}
If you're also not allowed to use int.Parse() (which is nuts, but sometimes homework has odd constraints) you would keep everything else the same, but replace int.Parse() with your own ParseInt() method:
static int ParseInt(string input)
{
int exponent = 0;
int result = 0;
for(int i = input.Length -1; i>=0; i--)
{
result += ((int)(input[i]-'0') * (int)Math.Pow(10, exponent));
exponent++;
}
return result;
}
Again: there's no error checking here for things like out-of-bounds or non-numeric inputs, and this particular implementation only works for positive integers.

using methods for program?

So I did this hangman game, and it works perfectly fine, the only problem is that I want to use methods to organize everything.
And yes, it is a school project. I tried my best but whenever I try to put a part of the program in a method it's as if I removed a variable and it underlines it in red.
I removed them for now so it's more clear. also, the file I used contained 19 8 letters max words, one on each line.
Can someone tell me how I can incorporate methods without ruining the whole thing? also English isn't my first language plz excuse any mistakes, the code was in french and I translated it for this question. thank you very much. I appreciate your time and effort :)

Im not going to make every method for your project, I'll help kickstart on how to think about it. Look at your current code for reading the file of words. You can move that into a method -
public string[] ReadWordsFromFile()
{
string file = "path to your file here";
return File.ReadAllLines(file);
}
Or pass the file path as parameter -
public string[] ReadWordsFromFile(string filePath)
{
return File.ReadAllLines(filePath);
}
Next you can have a method to get random words -
public string GetRandomWord(string[] wordsArray)
{
Random random = new Random();
int randomIndex = random.Next(0, wordsArray.Length);
return wordsArray[randomIndex];
}
Note - words can be repeated if you do it this way, if you don't want that - then add logic to remove that item from the list once its used in the game. If you remove it within this method, its not actually going to remove it from the game, as you'll still be passing the entire array when getting a new word. Ill leave the implementation of that logic to you, if you want it.
In the "game controller" code -
you can use the above methods like this -
string file = "your path to txt file";
string[] allWords = ReadWordsFromFile(file);
string WordToGuess = GetRandomWord(allWords);
May be your next goal should be something like this -
public void GameControler()
{
// get all words here and other logic before game starts
while (Attempts > 0)
{
string WordToGuess = GetRandomWord(wordsArray);
// get letterGuessed from user
bool letterExists = CheckIfLetterExists(WordToGuess, letterGuessed);
if (!letterExists)
{
Attempts--;
ExecuteWrongGuessMethod(x, y);
}
else
{
ExecuteRightGuessMethod(w);
}
}
}
public bool CheckIfLetterExists(string word, string letter)
{
if (word.Contains(letter)) return true;
else return false;
}
public void ExecuteWrongGuessMethod(string passWhatYouNeedTo, int somethingElse)
{
// what to do when the guess is wrong e.g. Console.Writeline("wrong guess");
}
public void ExecuteRightGuessMethod(string word)
{
// logic when guess is right. e.g. Show the letter guessed within the word on the console etc.
}
All of this isn't the best way to do it. BUT I personally feel this is logically next step a beginner takes after what you've implemented. Seeing a fully well-developed program might be too much without understanding atleast some basic concepts of OOP.
After learning how to create Methods and use them, then comes classes and objects. Which should be implemented in this game, but this is all for now. I recommend you do a short C# course on coursera etc or even youtube. And slowly move towards a better understanding of SOLID principles. And by SOLID I mean an acronym for the 5 principles and not the actual word. All the best.

Getting User Input and Adding it to an array at C#

I am trying to get input from user 5 times and add those values to marks array;
Then, it will calculate the average and print positive or negative accordingly. However, I can not take input from the user it just prints "Enter 5 elements". After getting input from user how can I add them to marks array? Any tips would be helpful.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
double average =0;
int [] marks = new int[] { };
for (int a = 0; a < 5; a++){
Console.WriteLine("Enter 5 elements:");
string line = Console.ReadLine();
Console.WriteLine(line);
}
for (int i = 0; i < marks.Length; i++){
average = marks.Average();
}
if(average>0){
Console.WriteLine("Positive");
}else{
Console.WriteLine("Negative");
}
}
}

I would use a while loop combined with int.TryParse to check if the user input is a number. Also it doesn't make any sense to put average = marks.Average(); inside a for loop, because LINQ Average calculates the average of a collection (in your case the marks array).
static void Main()
{
int[] marks = new int[5];
int a = 0;
Console.WriteLine("Enter 5 elements:");
while (a < 5)
{
if (int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out marks[a]))
a++;
else
Console.WriteLine("You didn't enter a number! Please enter again!");
}
double average = marks.Average();
if (average > 0)
Console.WriteLine("Positive");
else
Console.WriteLine("Negative");
}
DEMO HERE

Edited my answer to illustrate solving your problem without a for loop.
class Program
{
const int numberOfMarks = 5;
static void Main()
{
List<int> marks = new List<int>();
Enumerable.Range(1, numberOfMarks)
.ForEach((i) => {
Console.Write($"Enter element {i}:");
marks.Add(int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out var valueRead) ? valueRead : 0);
Console.WriteLine($" {valueRead}");
});
Console.WriteLine(marks.Average() >= 0 ? "Positive" : "Negative");
}
}

This will help you, just copy and paste it.
There are some explanation with comments.
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
const int numberOfMarks = 5;
int[] marks = new int[numberOfMarks];
Console.WriteLine("Enter 5 elements:");
for (int a = 0; a < numberOfMarks; a++)
{
// If entered character not a number, give a chance to try again till number not entered
while(!int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out marks[a]))
{
Console.WriteLine("Entered not a character");
}
Console.WriteLine("You entered : " + marks[a]);
}
// Have to call Average only once.
var avg = marks.Average();
Console.WriteLine(avg > 0 ? "Positive average" : "Negative average");
Console.ReadLine();
}
}

Follow Stackoverflow Answer
since integer array is being used, and as input from the console is a string value, you need to convert it using Parse() Method. For e.g.
string words = "83";
int number = int.Parse(words);
Edit: using string variable in parsing.

C# problems with a for loop

Can someone tell me why this doesnt work. When I enter the loop it prints everything instead of one line and get the users input. It prints Enter the integer the account numberEnter the integer the account balanceEnter the account holder lastname
Got it working thanks everyone, but now the searchaccounts doesnt work
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class accounts
{
private int[] accountnum = new int[5]; //private accountnum array of five integer account numbers
private int[] accountbal = new int[5];//private balance array of five balance amounts
private string[] accountname = new string[5];//private accntname array to hold five last names
public void fillAccounts()
{
int bal;
int accountnumber;
string name;
for (int x = 0; x < 5; ++x)
{
Console.Write("Enter the integer the account number");
accountnumber = Console.Read();
Console.Write("Enter the integer the account balance");
bal = Console.Read();
Console.Write("Enter the account holder lastname");
name = Console.ReadLine();
accountnum[x] = accountnumber;
accountbal[x] = bal;
accountname[x] = name;
}
}
public void searchAccounts()
{
Console.WriteLine("Enter the account number");
int acctnum = Console.Read();
for (int x = 0; x < 6; ++x)
{
if (x < 5)
{
if (accountnum[x] == acctnum)
{
Console.WriteLine("Account #{0} has a balance of {1} for customer {2}", acctnum, accountbal[x].ToString("C"), accountname[x]);
break;
}
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("You entered invalid account number");
}
}
}
public void averageAccounts()
{
int sum = 0;
int avg;
for (int x = 0; x < 5; ++x)
{
sum = accountbal[x] + sum;
}
avg = sum / 5;
Console.WriteLine("The average dollar amount is {0}", avg.ToString("c"));
}
}
class assignment3_alt
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
accounts myclass = new accounts();
string userin;
myclass.fillAccounts();
int i = 0;
while (i != 1)
{//use the following menu:
Console.WriteLine("*****************************************");
Console.WriteLine("enter an a or A to search account numbers");
Console.WriteLine("enter a b or B to average the accounts");
Console.WriteLine("enter an x or X to exit program");
Console.WriteLine("*****************************************");
Console.Write("Enter option-->");
userin = Console.ReadLine();
if (userin == "a" || userin == "A")
{
myclass.searchAccounts();
}
else if (userin == "b" || userin == "B")
{
myclass.averageAccounts();
}
else if (userin == "x" || userin == "X")
{
break;
}
else
{
Console.WriteLine("You entered an invalid option");
}
}
}
}
}

Console.Read only reads a single character. You need to use Console.ReadLine.
Console.Write("Enter the integer the account number");
accountnumber = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
Console.Write("Enter the integer the account balance");
bal = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
Console.Write("Enter the account holder lastname");
name = Console.ReadLine();
You might also want to consider using int.TryParse instead of int.Parse so that you can better handle invalid input.

For your new question it is the same error. Just replace:
int acctnum = Console.Read();
with
int acctnum = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
or (preferably)
int acctnum;
if (!int.TryParse(Console.ReadLine(), out acctnum))
{
Console.WriteLine("You need to enter a number");
return;
}
The first will fail if the user doesn't enter a valid integer the second will print out a nice error message and return to the loop.

This is not an answer, as other have already put up some good ones. These are just a few tips about your code.
Instead of looping with while (i != 1), never changing the value of i and terminating the loop with break, it would be better to use a do-while loop, like this:
do
{
// blah blah
} while(userin != "x" || userin != "X")
It is less confusing than having a variable with no use at all.

How do I prevent crashing due to invalid input in C#?

The program I've written is set to only accept positive integers as input. If the user inputs a letter instead, then it crashes. Negative integers don't cause any problems, though it's not 'valid' in regards to how my program functions.
What I want to do is:
Prevent the program from crashing from invalid input.
Display an error message if the input is invalid
Have the program continue where it left off, without affecting the rest of the program.
Also, a part of my program involves division. Is there a way to prevent the user from entering all zeros?
This is in C#

Yes... before you do anything calculations, you need to validate the data you are going to use. If any data is incorrect, then you display a messagebox detailing the errors and return focus to the form so the user can fix the errors. Repeat as necessary.

I wrote this one many moons ago when I first learned C#. It is a conversion from a VB function that I got back in VB5 days. The major benefit of the function is that there is no error - an input will just not allow any characters outside of the predefined list.
