finding sum of two dimensional array java
Solution 1
I reccomend you do it this way:
int perTotal = 0;
// top and bottom row
for (int c = 0; c < numCols; c++)
perTotal += matrix[0][c] + matrix[numRows-1][c];
// left and right column
for (int r = 1; r < numRows-1; r++)
perTotal += matrix[r][0] + matrix[r][numCols-1];
// output
System.out.println("Perimeter=" + perTotal);
Solution 2
Here is your method:
public static int perimeter(int[][] array) {
int perimter = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < array[0].length; i++) {
perimter += array[0][i] + array[array.length - 1][i];
}
for (int r = 1; r < array.length - 1; r++) {
perimter += array[r][0] + array[r][array[0].length - 1];
}
return perimter;
}
And here is your test with the array you provided :
public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(perimeter(new int[][]{{1, 2, 2, 3}, {2, 4, 4, 2}, {3, 6, 6, 3}, {4, 8, 8, 4}})); }
Output : 42
Solution 3
There is a la4j (Linear Algebra for Java) library that handles this task in 0.4.0 release (currently avaliable at GitHub: https://github.com/vkostyukov/la4j, will be avaliable at Maven this summer). So, here is the brief example:
Matrix a = new Basic2DMatrix(...); // creates a real matrix
// calculates the sum of '1' row
double d1 = a.foldRow(1, Matrices.asSumAccumulator(0));
// calculates the sum of '2'
double d2 = a.foldColumn(2, Matrices.asSumAccumulator(0));
// the helper class that fetches border elements of matrix
class PerimeterFetcher implements MatrixFunction {
private int rows;
private int columns;
public PerimeterFectcher(int rows, int columns) {
this.rows = rows;
this.columns = columns;
}
@Override
public double evaluate(int i, int j, double value) {
return i == 0 ? value : j == 0 ? value : (i + 1) == rows ? value
: (j + 1) == columns ? value : 0;
}
}
// calculates the perimeter of matrix
double p = a.fold(Matrices.asSumFunctionAccumulator(0,
new PerimeterFetcher(a.rows(), a.columns())));
UPD: The next version of la4j (0.4.5) supports sum()
method for matrices and vectors:
Matrix a = new Basic2DMatrix(...);
double s = a.sum(); // wrapper around a.fold(...);
Solution 4
Just do this:
for (int i = 0; i < ROWS; i++){
for (int j = 0; j < COLUMNS; j++){
sum = sum + myArray[i][j];
}
}
System.out.print(sum);
This should give you the sum.
Solution 5
//Requirement #7: traverse the perimeter and sum the values and display the sum
int perTotal = 0;
// First line
for (int j = 0; j < numCols; j++)
{
perTotal += matrix[0][j];
}
// If there is only one line, then it is done.
if (numRows > 1)
{
// Last line
for (int j = 0; j < numCols; j++)
{
perTotal += matrix[numRows-1][j];
}
// Other lines
for (int i = 1; i < numRows -1); i++)
{
perTotal += matrix[i][0] + matrix[i][numcols -1];
}
}
//Perimeter
System.out.println("Perimter="+perTotal);

I am working on a project where I have to read a file and enter the content into a 2D array. Then I have to sum each row, each column, and the perimeter of the matrix. I have everything working so far except the perimeter. I am trying to create separate for loops for the top row, bottom row, and middle of the two outside columns.
The matrix file looks like this:
1 2 3 4 2 4 6 8 2 4 6 8 3 2 3 4
Therefore the perimeter should add up to 42. Right now I can successfully add the first row and the last row to equal 22. However, when I add the columns to that total I get 32.
Here is the code:
import java.util.*; // Scanner class import java.io.*; // File class public class Lab10 { static public void main( String [ ] args ) throws Exception { if ( args.length != 1 ) { System.out.println("Error -- usage is: java Lab10 matdataN.txt"); System.exit( 0 ); } //Requirement #1: first int value: # of rows, second int value: # of cols File newFile = new File(args[0]); Scanner in = new Scanner(newFile); int numRows = in.nextInt(); int numCols = in.nextInt(); //Requirement #2: declare two-d array of ints int[][] matrix; matrix = new int[numRows][numCols]; //Requirement #3 & 4: read file one line at a time (nested for loops //and nextInt()) and print for (int i = 0; i < numRows; i++) { for (int j = 0; j < numCols; j++) { matrix[i][j] = in.nextInt(); System.out.print(matrix[i][j]+ " "); } System.out.println(); } //Requirement #5: traverse each row and sum the values and display the sums int rowTotal = 0; for (int i = 0; i < numRows; i++) { rowTotal = 0; for (int j = 0; j < numCols; j++) { rowTotal += matrix[i][j]; } System.out.println("Sum for row = " + rowTotal); } //Requirement #6: traverse each column and sum the values and display the sums int colTotal = 0; for (int i = 0; i < numRows; i++) { colTotal = 0; for (int j = 0; j < numCols; j++) { colTotal += matrix[j][i]; } System.out.println("Sum for col = " + colTotal); } //Requirement #7: traverse the perimeter and sum the values and display the sum //sum bottom row matrix int perTotal = 0; for (int i = (numRows-1); i < numRows; i++) { perTotal = 0; for (int j = 0; j < numCols; j++) { perTotal += matrix[i][j]; } } //sum + top row matrix for (int i = 0; i < numRows - (numRows-1); i++) { for (int j = 0; j < numCols; j++) { perTotal += matrix[i][j]; } System.out.println("Sum of perimeter = " + perTotal); } // sum + first col middle for (int i = 1; i < (numRows-1); i++) { for (int j = 0; j < numCols - (numCols-1); j++) { perTotal += matrix[j][i]; } System.out.println("Sum = " + perTotal); } // sum + last col middle for (int i = 1; i < (numRows-1); i++) { for (int j = (numCols-1); j < numCols; j++) { perTotal += matrix[j][i]; } System.out.println(perTotal); } }
I would be hugeeeeeely appreciative if anyone could help me total the middle of the first and last column (should be 2+2 and 8+8). Or if you have an altogether better way of finding the perimeter. Thanks in advance!

LaGrandMere about 11 yearsIn case there is only 1 line, you sum it twice to calculate perimeter ... Not sure what to do in this case, in my answer I considered to sum it only once with a if.

Martinsos about 11 yearsIf you are handling case when there is just one row, then you should also handle case when there is just one column
