}

}

here is the output

compile-single:

I know there are tons of errors, I need your advice. Please, this is due in 5 hours.

Thanks

Due in 5hours? That blows.

If your goal is to convert english to morse code, why are you converting the string to Integer here?

System.out.println("Input: ");  
val = BR.readLine();  
int x =Integer.parseInt(val);

Should I convert it to a character?

What you need is something like the following

		val = BR.readLine();
		for(int i = 0;i < val.length();i++) {	
		String m = morse[val.charAt(0) - 'A'];
		System.out.print(m);
		}

[333OnlyHalfEvil]

I'm assuming that your input is an english word and your program is supposed to convert it to morse code. If your input is in english than you don't need to convert it to anything. Converting it to a character doesn't make sense because it's already a character.

[davewhite]

I got the program running.It works fine, But is there any other way other than switch statement?

   import java.io.*;

public class MorseCode {

public static void main(String[] args){
	BufferedReader BR = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); 
   
	
   String[] morse = {".- ","-... ","-.-/>. ","-.. ",". ","..-. ","--. ",".... ",".. ",
   ".--- ","-.-/> ",".-.. ","-- ","-. ","--- ",".--. ","--.-/> ",".-. ","... ","- ","..- ",
   "...- ",".-- ","-..- ","-.-/>- ","--.. "};
  
   
   

BufferedReader dataIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));

String sentence = "";
System.out.println("Enter a sentence");
try{
sentence = dataIn.readLine();
}catch(Exception e){
System.out.println("Invalid Input");
}

for(int x = 0; x<sentence.length(); x++){

char ch = sentence.charAt(x);


 


switch(ch){
case 'a':
case 'A':
System.out.println(morse[0]); break;

case 'b':
case 'B':
System.out.print(morse[1]); break;

case 'c':
case 'C':
System.out.print(morse[2]); break;

System.out.print(morse[3]); break;

System.out.print(morse[13]); break;

case 'o':
case 'O':
System.out.print(morse[14]); break;

case 'p':
case 'P':
System.out.print(morse[15]); break;

case 'q':
case 'Q':
System.out.print(morse[16]); break;

case 'r':
case 'R':
System.out.print(morse[17]); break;

case 's':
case 'S':
System.out.print(morse[18]); break;

case 't':
case 'T':
System.out.print(morse[19]); break;

case 'u':
case 'U':
System.out.print(morse[20]); break;

case 'v':
case 'V':
System.out.print(morse[21]); break;

case 'w':
case 'W':
System.out.print(morse[22]); break;

case 'x':
case 'X':
System.out.print(morse[23]); break;

case 'y':
case 'Y':
System.out.print(morse[24]); break;

case 'z':
case 'Z':
System.out.print(morse[25]); break;
}
}   
System.out.println(".");

}

}

You can use if statements; but in this case, switch provides a little more organization. Also, you might want to work on your code indentations a little, as the code you just posted is very difficult to follow.

I've already posted code that doesn't use switch

}
}

It does not work.

Sorry - didn't test it properly - hang on

[g00se]

Try this:

	for (int i = 0; i < sentence.length(); i++) {
		char c = sentence.charAt(i);
		if(Character.isLetter(c)) {
		String m = morse[c - 'A'];
		System.out.print(m);
		}
	}

You can make that a little more robust with

char c = Character.toUpperCase(sentence.charAt(i));

Why won't it read space?

import java.io.*;

public class MorseCode {

public static void main(String[] args){
	BufferedReader dataIn = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); 
   
	
   String[] morse = {".- ","-... ","-.-/>. ","-.. ",". ","..-. ","--. ",".... ",".. ",
   ".--- ","-.-/> ",".-.. ","-- ","-. ","--- ",".--. ","--.-/> ",".-. ","... ","- ","..- ",
   "...- ",".-- ","-..- ","-.-/>- ","--.. "," "};
  
	   String sentence = "";
	   System.out.println("Enter a sentence: ");
	  try{
		  sentence = dataIn.readLine();
	  }catch(Exception e){
		  System.out.println("Invalid Input");
	   }


  
		  for (int i = 0; i < sentence.length(); i++) {
			   char letter = Character.toUpperCase(sentence.charAt(i));
				  String word = morse[letter - 'A'];
				  System.out.print(word+".");
			   }
		 }

	   }
