Puzzle Master
So I just joined this group called Puzzle Master (while waiting for my friends to arrive to go watch Year One)
I finished the first puzzle Hoppity Hop!… took all of 10 mins.
Heres my code. I’ll upload it later instead of just copy/pasting it in my blog.
package com.rungeek.puzzles.hoppityhop;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.IOException;
public class Main {
/**
* Hoppity Hop!
*
* This is a puzzle from Facebook.
* Website: http://www.facebook.com/careers/puzzles.php#/careers/puzzles.php?puzzle_id=7
*
* @param args input file
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
int count = 0;
if (args.length > 0) {
try {
File file = new File(args[0]);
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
String line = bufferedReader.readLine();
count = Integer.parseInt(line.trim());
} catch (IOException e) {
System.err.println("Could not find or bad file");
System.err.println(args[0]);
e.printStackTrace();
}
for (int i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
if (((i % 3) == 0) && ((i % 5) == 0)) {
System.out.println("Hop");
} else if ((i % 3) == 0) {
System.out.println("Hoppity");
} else if ((i % 5) == 0) {
System.out.println("Hophop");
}
}
} else {
System.out.println("Please enter File Location as first arg");
}
}
}
