tenRun challenge
Hi,
I am working on below challenge
http://codingbat.com/prob/p199484
Psedo code description of approach :
1. create new array of given array size
2. loop given array in for loop
3. check each element value not greater than 10
4. if yes multiply by 10
5 if no give same value from given array to new array
I wrote my code as below
I am not passing all tests
Expected Run
tenRun([2, 10, 3, 4, 20, 5]) → [2, 10, 10, 10, 20, 20] [20, 10, 30, 40, 20, 50] X
tenRun([10, 1, 20, 2]) → [10, 10, 20, 20] [10, 10, 20, 20] OK
tenRun([10, 1, 9, 20]) → [10, 10, 10, 20] [10, 10, 90, 20] X

For each multiple of 10 in the given array, change all the values following it to be that multiple of 10, until encountering another multiple of 10. So {2, 10, 3, 4, 20, 5} yields {2, 10, 10, 10, 20, 20}.//however 3,4 became 10.10 i thought 5 should become 10tenRun([2, 10, 3, 4, 20, 5]) → [2, 10, 10, 10, 20, 20]

No, that is not correct
For each multiple of 10 in the given array, change all the values following it to be that multiple of 10
And you don't change any values before the first multiple of 10.
What multiple of 10 does the 5 follow???
What do you think the results of the following should be:
tenRun([2, 20, 3, 4, 10, 5]) → ???tenRun([2, 20, 10, 10, 10, 10])
No, that is not correct
For each multiple of 10 in the given array, change all the values following it to be that multiple of 10
Doing it by hand:
tenRun([2, 20, 3, 4, 10, 5]
2 - no change
20 - multiple of 10 - no change
3 - change it 20 since it follows that multiple of 10
4 - change it 20 since it follows that multiple of 10
10 - multiple of 10 - no change
5 - change it 10 since it follows that multiple of 10
And you don't change any values before the first multiple of 10.

This is the case we are talking about now. It is one of the original test cases that you did not understand.

falls between has nothing to do with following
multiple of does not mean multiply by
What multiple of 10 does the 5 follow in the array?
is the same as
What multiple of 10 comes before 5 in the array?
The answer in this case is 20. -- So change the 5 to 20.

This is the text of the Challenge, in case you have forgotten:
For each multiple of 10 (like 0, 10, 20, 30, ...) in the given array
change all the values following it (in the array) to be that multiple of 10
until encountering another multiple of 10.

how to start for loop from first occurrence of 10 multiple not from i=0 which resolve the issues here
You are still multiplying by 10.
That is wrong.
You have to start at 0 to look for the first multiple of 10.
What is your pseudo code?

Yes, but your code is not even close.

You should use the remainder operator to make your search. See my first comment above here.

how to use moduls operator for this challenge?
Psedo code description of approach :
1. create new array of given array size
2. loop given array in for loop
3. check each element value modulus is 0(ie reminder)
4. if yes multiply subsequent elements by same previous element value?
5 if no give same value from given array to new array

how to use moduls operator for this challenge?You can search for the condition
nums[i]%10) == 0
4. if yes multiply subsequent elements by same previous element value?No. As d-glitch has posted
... MULTIPLY are not mentioned in the Challenge.Multiply is an arithmetic operation. If we multiply 3 by 4 the result is 12. The numbers that are multiples of ten are 10, 20 ,30, 40, and so on.
ASKER
public int[] tenRun(int[] nums) {
int totalLen =nums.length;
//int[] arr=new int[len];
int firstVal=0;
for(int i=0;i<totalLen;i++){
if((nums[i]%10)==0){
firstVal=i;
break;
}
}
for(int k=firstVal;k<totalLen;k++){
if((nums[k]%10)==0){
secondVal=k;
break;
}
}
return nums;
}
i tried above approach. I have to print all values between firstval and secondval which i am not able to figure out how to proceed further esp if there is thirdval and fourthvale etc

Yes, you can combine the flag and the currVal variables for a more elegant solution.
You can come up with this sort of trick if you focus your thinking on algorithms and optimizations. You will never come up with them if you keep asking for basic help.
You are currently working on a problem that can use this exact trick. Good luck.

Look at rrz's code until you understand it. You may actually have to think about it.
That is the point.
