Android :: Storing Float Numbers As Strings In Database

Apr 27, 2010

So I have an app where I put arbitrary strings in a database and later extract them like this:

CODE:......................

This works fine in all cases except for when the string looks like a float number, for example "221.123123123". After saving it to the database I can extract the database to my computer and look inside it with a DB-viewer, and the saved number is correct. However, when using cursor.getString() the string "221.123" is returned. I cant for the life of me understand how I can prevent this. I guess I could do a cursor.getDouble() on every single string to see if this gives a better result, but that feels sooo ugly and inefficient.

I just made a small test program. This program prints "result: 123.123", when I would like it to print "result: 123.123123123"

CODE:.................

Android :: Storing Short Strings And Numeric Values In Resources

Jan 11, 2010

I want to have some static numeric and text values as an application resource. For example my data is like this:

Levels 5 First_Level 500 60 1 Second_Level 500 80 1 Third_Level 200 60 1 Fourth_Level 130 30 2 Final_Level 100 30 3... and another 300 lines...

The format and order of the data is predefined and guaranteed to be valid.

I could read it with java.util.Scanner, but it's extremely slow in Android, reading a 10 KB file takes minutes. It's slow because of the regular-expression-based pattern matching inside (when I traceview'ed it).

General :: Storing And Displaying Phone Numbers Without Spaces

Jul 2, 2013

I have Nexus 4 and ever since I bought it, it saves all phone numbers with spaces between the digits (like +44 555 555 5555 etc.)

How to have these numbers with no spaces in between? I tried changing the language to English US, English UK and English Autsralia... etc. but no luck with that!!

It really bothers me as well as so many people out there as I found many people complaining about the same issue:

Android :: Storing Object Into SQLlite Database

Nov 16, 2010

I would like to store an object into a SQLlite database. I am looking for how to best do it in order to ensure that if I need to updata/change this object in the future that users of the new and old object layout will be minimally impacted. In other words I want to ensure that making changes to the object will have minimum affect on clients that do not update their software on the old database format.

I want to also ensure an easy update from the old record style to the new format. I was thinking that I could add an element in the SQL row to identify the object type with a unique name, and to identify the object version number. That way I could read the row and use the object number to control the deserializer to use the correct version of the class.

Android : Regarding Storing Of Data From User In Database

Aug 19, 2010

I am working on some sample programs, where i have to take the value from the user and store it in the database. I have used DroidDraw to create the XML code for UI.For now, I have just started with a textbox. So, I have to take the value from this textbox and store it in a database. I am using SQlite browser to create tables. I read in some forums, that one way of doing this.

1. Copy the db file in the asset folder of the android project and use the AssetManager class. But i am not able to figure out how to use the asset manager class here. Or if I could get some simpler suggestions on how to store the value from user into the database, it would be great.

Android :: Use Flat File Or Database For Storing Quotes In Application?

Oct 14, 2009

I am developing an app on Android that will randomly pick and display an inspirational quotation (or verse) from a large collection of quotations. On Android I can choose between a flat file and an SQLite database. The app should satisfy the following conditions:
Be scalable to 10^6 quotations and/or verses
Be very fast (i.e. retrieve and display a quotation, immediately at the touch of a button)
Be able to load new quotations from an external source (in a format I have not yet decided)
What data format must I use?

Android :: Strings Generated By Substring Not Treated As Hard Coded Strings

Nov 21, 2010

Dear all, I'm making a simple file decoder for Android 2.2 that needs to find the filename of the encoded file from a header. This filename should then be used as the filename for the decoded file (as you would expect).The filename is identified by the substring name=, so the actual name starts 5 places after that. The line is read by a BufferedReader and temporarily stored in currLine.For some reason I can't understand nor find on the web, Strings do not always seem to be Strings.Gives no output file, nor an IO exception. The string is parsed properly though: from the System.out debugging lines.

Android :: Most Speed-efficient Way To Hard Code Map Of Strings To Strings?

Aug 19, 2010

I've got a map of about 500 entries. Strings are all very short (less than 5 chars).Its read-only data I want to read once at app-startup. What's the best way to store this so that loading this data is fast?I've tried storing the data in a CSV in res/raw but this takes about 700ms to parse on my N1, so I'm hoping there's a faster way.

Is there any way to convert the audio file into some format and dump into the SQLite database and retrievr flexibly.

Android :: Can One Combine Android Resource Strings Into New Strings?

Aug 31, 2010

by which the resource "bar" becomes an alias for the resource named "foo".What I would for my app is a possibility to combine an existing resource prefix with different suffixes,where the resource "bar" would yield the string "foobar". Its clear that '+' doesn't work here but is there some other option to achieve such a string concatenation, so that one could define a bunch of string resources that have a common prefix?I realize of course that I could do such resource string concatenation at runtime but defining them statically in the resources would seem so much more elegant and simpler.

Android :: Same Value When Converting From String To Float

Jul 8, 2010

I have a JSON Object with a latitude and longitude String on which I get the values doing this: String latitude = picInfo.getString("latitude"); String longitude = picInfo.getString("longitude");Then I convert them to floats like this: float latInt = Float.valueOf(latitude).floatValue(); float longInt = Float.valueOf(longitude).floatValue();And place them on a GeoPoint like this: GeoPoint X = new GeoPoint((int) (latInt*1E6),(int) (longInt*1E6) ); Debugging this values I can see JAVA approximates the values, is there anyway to keep them exactly the same?

Android :: String From EditText To Float

I have an EditText for which will be using for a float number. So I'm trying to read the text from the EditText and put it into a float variable. But I seem to have a text to float problem.I've tried using Float.parseFloat(string) and just general casting, but nothing seem to do it. What can I do here? Also, is there a way to check for a valid float number before writing it to a variable?

Android :: Avoiding Float Operations In Game Design

Jun 8, 2010

I've read this in a few articles, that one should avoid floating point operations within the physics update of a game.

But how do you really achieve this? Surely all half decent games are going to involve this kind of maths?

Does it mean, convert all your variables to int, or use double instead, or simply just cut it out as much as possible?

Android :: SeekBar Minimum And Continuous Float Value Attributes

I'm looking for a way to implement a minimum value in my SeekBar and also have the option to increment decimal numbers. For example, currently my SeekBar's minimum is set to 0, but I need it to start at the value 0.2. Also, I would like to have the functionality to be able to have the user select a number from 0.2 to 10.0 at a .1 precision so they can choose the numbers 5.6 or 7.1.

Here are the style attributes for my SeekBar:

Android :: One Line Causing Lots Of Garbage Collection.String.format With Float?

Apr 13, 2009

In my ListView, there's one line of code in my ViewBinder that causes lots of garbage collection as I scroll through the list, about every two seconds...

D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13171 objects / 659576 bytes in 162ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13122 objects / 654128 bytes in 129ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13134 objects / 655416 bytes in 142ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13129 objects / 654840 bytes in 129ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13149 objects / 655000 bytes in 110ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13150 objects / 655720 bytes in 127ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13075 objects / 652256 bytes in 111ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13232 objects / 659040 bytes in 136ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13106 objects / 653920 bytes in 110ms D/dalvikvm(16312): GC freed 13155 objects / 655152 bytes in 110ms

The offending code is here, which formats a price for each item in the list: String price = cursor.getString(columnIndex); final float pricef = Float.parseFloat(price); price = new StringBuffer("$").append(String.format("%. 2f",pricef)).toString(); ((TextView)view).setText(price);

If I comment out the line with String.format, the garbage collection goes away. So what's the "right" way to do this to avoid allocations? That database field holds an unformatted text string which I'm trying to format into proper currency format (example: format "1.5" to "$1.50")

Saving Values From (Float) ArrayList Into A Bundle

Dec 4, 2012

I'm writing a game using Surfaceview and have a question relating to saving Data into a Bundle.

Initially, I had an arraylist which stored the Y co-ordinates (in the form of Integers) of sprites that will move only up and down. Declared as:

Quote:

static ArrayList<Integer> ycoordinates = new ArrayList<Integer>();

I saved them to a Bundle using the following:

Quote:

myBundle.putIntegerArrayList("myycoordinates", ycoordinates);

And restored them using this:

Quote:

ycoordinates.addAll(savedState.getIntegerArrayList ("ycoordinates"));

This all worked perfectly. However, I've had to change the whole coordinates system so it's based on Delta time to allow my sprites to move at a uniform speed across different screens. This is, again, working perfectly.

However, as a result of this change, I now have to store these values as floats rather than integers.

So, I am declaring as:

Quote:

static ArrayList<Float> ycoordinates = new ArrayList<Float>();

So that's the background, now my question is, how do I store and restore values from a Float Arraylist? There doesn't seem to be a "putFloatArrayList" or "getFloatArrayList".

(I've used an Arraylist rather than an Array as the number of sprites needs to be dynamic).
