Question

Please help with coding assignment.

Java

Write a method where you have to generate random numbers between 1 to 9 until you get the number 5, and you do it j number of times. (j represents how many times you can generate.) If you do get to 5 under j number of times, you skip a line and end the method. Write the method stopAtFive.


public int stopAtFive (int j)

Answer 1

Answer:

import java.util.Random;

class Main {

   

   public int stopAtFive (int j) {

      Random rand = new Random();

      int number = 0;

      for(int i=0; i<j; i++) {

          number = rand.nextInt(9)+1;

          System.out.println(number);

          if (number == 5) {

              System.out.println();

              break;

          }

      }

      return number;

   }

   

   public static void main(String args[]) {

       Main main = new Main();

       main.stopAtFive(20);

       main.stopAtFive(20);

   }

}

Explanation:

Your requirements do not say what has to be displayed or returned from the method, but you can use this as a starting point.
