Concept explainers
Program plan:
- Import the required packages into the program.
- Create a class Exercise12_01 to throw the NumberFormatException exception.
- In the main() method,
- Declare the required variables.
- Check whether the length of argument is not equal to 3. If yes, display error message.
- In try block, assign the first argument value to variable.
- In catch block, catch the exception if error occurs.
- In try block, assign the third argument value to variable.
- In catch block, catch the exception if error occurs.
- Match the argument 1 with character 0 using switch case.
- If case "+" matches, then add the two numbers and stores the result.
- If case "-" matches, then subtract the two numbers and stores the result.
- If case "." matches, then multiply the two numbers and stores the result.
- If case "/" matches, then divide the two numbers and stores the result.
- Display the result.
The below program demonstrates how to operate mathematical operations and throw a NumberFormatException exception if error occurs.
Explanation of Solution
Program:
Filename: Exercise12_01.java
//Class definition
public class Exercise12_01
{
//Main method
public static void main(String[] args)
{
//Declare and initialize variables
int num1, num2, result = 0;
/*Check whether the length of argument is not equal to 3. */
if (args.length != 3) {
//Display error message
System.out.println("please use java Exercise12_01 operand1 operator operand2");
//Exit the program
System.exit(1);
}
//In try block
try {
//Assign the argument 0 as "num1"
num1 = Integer.parseInt(args[0]);
}
//In catch block
catch (NumberFormatException ex) {
//Display the exception
System.out.println("Wrong Input: " + args[0]);
return;
}
//In try block
try {
//Assign the argument 2 as "num2"
num2 = Integer.parseInt(args[2]);
}
//In catch block
catch (Exception ex) {
//Display the exception
System.out.println("Wrong Input: " + args[2]);
return;
}
//Match the argument 1 with character 0
switch (args[1].charAt(0)) {
//If case "+" matches
case '+':
/*Add the num1 and num2 and stores the result */
result = num1 + num2;
//Break the program
break;
//If case "-" matches
case '-':
/*Subtract the num2 from num1 and stores the result. *
result = num1 - num2;
;
//Break the program
break;
//If case "." matches
case '.':
/*Multiply the num1 with num2 and stores the result */
result = num1 * num2;
;
//Break the program
break;
//If case "/" matches
case '/':
/*Divide the num1 by num2 and stores the result */
result = num1 / num2;
;
}
//Display the calculated result
System.out.println(args[0] + " " + args[1] + " " + args[2] + " = " + result);
}
}
Command to run the program:
java Exercise12_01 4 + 5
4 + 5 = 9
Additional Output:
java Exercise12_01 4 - 5
4 – 5 = -1
java Exercise12_01 4x - 5
Wrong Input: 4x
