Everything is working fine, but when we select number 4, for purchase a ticket the program is crashing. Please anybody can help with this:

import java.util.*;

public class Theater {

	 public static void main(String[] args) {

		char[][] seats = new  char [15][30];
		double[] prices = new double [15];

		Scanner key = new Scanner(System.in);	  

		for (int i=1; i<seats.length; i++) {
			for (int j=1; j<seats[0].length; j++) {
			seats[i][j]='#';

		  }
	}

		 for (int i=1; i<=15; i++) {
			 System.out.println("Please enter price for Row: #"+ i);
					prices[i-1]=key.nextDouble();
				   
					 if (prices[i-1]<0) {
		  System.out.println("Price should be a positive number"); 
		  i--;
  
		}  
	  
		   }
	   

   displayMenu();


 int seleccion=getChoice(key);
 

while (seleccion!=5) {



  if (seleccion==1) {
		  System.out.println("Asientos disponibles # , Asientos ocupados *");
		  for (int i=0; i<seats.length; i++) {
		   for (int j=0; j<seats[0].length; j++) {

			System.out.print(seats[i][j]+" ");

			 }
		   System.out.println();
		   
	   }
		  
}

  else  if (seleccion==2) {

			displayPrices(prices);

		}
  else  if (seleccion==3) {

	   double totalsales = 0;
	   System.out.println("Ticket sales:");

   }

  else if (seleccion==4) {

  purchaseTicket(seats[][]);
 }
 else {
		   System.out.println("Invalid selection");
 }

	displayMenu(); //call the menu

	seleccion=getChoice(key);
}
	 }
	
 
		public static int getChoice(Scanner key) {
		
		int numsel=key.nextInt();

		if (numsel<0 || numsel>5) {
			System.out.println("The selection should be between 1-5");
		   displayMenu();
		   return getChoice(key);
		}

		 return numsel;

		}


		public static void displayMenu() {
		System.out.println("THEATER SOFTWARE MENU");
		System.out.println("1. View Available Seats");
		System.out.println("2. View Seating Prices");
		System.out.println("3. View Ticket Sales ");
		System.out.println("4. Purchase a Ticket");
		System.out.println("5. Exit the Program");
		System.out.print("ENTER YOUR CHOICE: ");

		}

		public static void displayPrices(final double prices[]) {

			System.out.println("Prices per row:");

			for (int i=1; i<=15; i++)
			{
				System.out.print("Row: #"+i+": ");
				System.out.println(prices[i-1]);

			}
		}
public static void purchaseTicket(char seats[][], final double prices[]){


System.out.println("Please enter row where you want to seat");
Scanner key = new Scanner(System.in);
int rownum=key.nextInt();
   int col=key.nextInt();

   if (seats[rownum][col]=='#') {
	   seats[rownum][col]='*';
		double totalsales=0;
	  totalsales=totalsales+prices[rownum];
		System.out.println("You have been purchase seat"+rownum+col);

   }

}
}

What is crashing about your program. What is the error?

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Uncompilable source code

[markhazlett9]

Ok your method puchase ticket is meant to accept 2 arrays... one 2-dimensional and 1 single... when you call the method inside your switch statement at case 4, you are only submitting a 2-dimensional array and not the second one. When you call a method it has to accept all the elements necessary.

ok thanks,
Now we have this problem: I'm trying to to ask the user if they want to see aviable seats before buy, but we are having troobles.

This is my code now:

[markhazlett9]

I'm a little confused.. I don't see any method in relation to the view available seats?!? Please supply a few more details about your issue.

[bonkerspr]

No, tghere is not a method,
is the selecion 1

if (seleccion==1) {
		  System.out.println("Asientos disponibles # , Asientos ocupados *");
		  for (int i=0; i<seats.length; i++) {
		   for (int j=0; j<seats[0].length; j++) {

			System.out.print(seats[i][j]+" ");

			 }
		   System.out.println();
		   
	   }
		  
}

We add this to the method;

public static void purchaseTicket(char seats[][],double prices[],double totalsales){

	   System.out.println("Do you wish to view chart of available seats?");

	  String question;
	  question=key.nextLine();

		  if (question.charAt(0)=='Y' || question.charAt(0)=='y'){

}
	   

So if the user press Y or y, it should show the users the chart of aviable/unavelable seats.
But we are having problem , maybe declaring the string inside the method.

[markhazlett9]

The if statement has no code inside of it. So even if the user presses "y" or "Y" It will not do anything. Or is it failing before it gets to that point?

[bonkerspr]

it its faileing before..
We will put as statement that..
But it is failing before that.
If you run the program and you type number 4 on the main menu you will see

[bonkerspr]

?????

[pbl]

for (int i=1; i<=15; i++) {
			 System.out.println("Please enter price for Row: #"+ i);
					prices[i]=key.nextDouble();
				   
					 if (prices[i]<0) {
		  System.out.println("Price should be a positive number"); 
		  i--;	 // <-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Basic programming practice: NEVER change the index of a for loop inside the for loop

[bonkerspr]

I already have the program complety working, but i have a problem now. i am getting this erro:
Purchase confirmed, you have been purchase seat Row:1,Seat:24
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 0

Anyone know why i am gettins this error?

[Locke]

Post the code.

I'll use pbl's idiom...

Trying to make us fix a problem without posting the code is like telling your mechanic to fix your engine without looking under the hood.
