checking an integer to see if it contains a zero

开发者_运维技巧

Given an integer, how could you check if it contains a 0, using Java?

1 = Good
2 = Good
...
9 = Good
10 = BAD!
101 = BAD!
1026 = BAD!
1111 = Good

How can this be done?

Do you mean if the decimal representation contains a 0? The absolute simplest way of doing that is:

if (String.valueOf(x).contains("0"))

Don't forget that a number doesn't "inherently" contain a 0 or not (except for zero itself, of course) - it depends on the base. So "10" in decimal is "A" in hex, and "10" in hex is "16" in decimal... in both cases the result would change.

There may be more efficient ways of testing for the presence of a zero in the decimal representation of an integer, but they're likely to be considerably more involved that the expression above.

If for some reason you don't like the solution that converts to a String you can try:

boolean containsZero(int num) {
    if(num == 0)
        return true;

    if(num < 0)
        num = -num;

    while(num > 0) {
        if(num % 10 == 0)
            return true;
        num /= 10;
    }
    return false;
}

This is also assuming num is base 10.

Edit: added conditions to deal with negative numbers and 0 itself.

You can convert it to a string and check if it contains the char "0".

int number = 101;
if( ( "" + number ).contains( "0" ) ) {
  System.out.println( "contains the digit 0" );
}

Integer.toString(yourIntValue).contains("0");

Here is a routine that will work detect zeros in integers. To make it work with any representation (decimal, hex, octal, binary), you need to pass in the base as a parameter.

public static boolean hasZero(int num, int base) {
    assert base > 0 : "must have positive non-zero base";

    if (num == 0)
        return true;

    while(num != 0) {
        if (num % base == 0) {
            return true;
        }
        else {
            num = num / base;
        }
    }

    return false;
}

public static void main(String args[]) {
    System.out.println(hasZero(10, 10));  // true (base 10 int)
    System.out.println(hasZero(-12, 10));  // false (base 10 int)

    System.out.println(hasZero(0x10, 16)); // true (hex is base 16)
    System.out.println(hasZero(0x1A, 16)); // false (hex is base 16)
}

I don't know if this is easier but here is another way. Split the number into an array of ints. Then sort and check if the first element is zero. E.g

int n = 14501;
// after splitting
int na = {1, 4, 5, 0, 1};
// after sorting
int na = {0, 1, 1, 4, 5};

Not using Java, but it's not exactly hard to convert from C++ PS. Shame on anyone using string conversion.

bool Contains0InBase10( unsigned int i, unsigned int& next )
{
 unsigned int divisor = 10;
 unsigned int remainder = 0;
 while( divisor <= i )
 {
  unsigned int newRemainder = i%divisor;
  if( newRemainder - remainder == 0)
  {
   // give back information allowing a program to skip closer to the next
   // number that doesn't contain 0
   next = i + (divisor / 10) - remainder;
   return true;
  }
  divisor *= 10;
  remainder = newRemainder;
 }
 return false;
}
