Iterating over a HashMap using the enhanced loop (foreach) in Java is a good way to keep your code smaller, more legible and usually more semantically coherent. import java.util.HashMap; import java.util.Map; class Foo {} public class Main { public static void main(String args[]){ Map<Byte, Foo> mHash; mHash = new HashMap<Byte, Foo>(); [...]

Today I was programming a toString method for a class widely used in a application, using the very useful String.format that provides a C’s like printf formatter. @Override public String toString() { return String.format("VO[a: %.1f, b: %.1f, c: %.1f]", a, b, a+b); } %.1f means a float with one digit precision after the dot separator.

Here’s a program that lists fonts available in your JVM. You can also set the environment variable JAVA_FONTS to specify the font directory. import java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment; public class ListFonts { public static void main(String args[]){ GraphicsEnvironment e = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment(); for(String font:e.getAvailableFontFamilyNames()){ System.out.println(font); } } } By using pipes you can count how many fonts you [...]
