Task / assignment
Method to insert spaces into a text and produce an evenly formatted (justified) text as a result. I wrote working Java code but it's necessary to write that in Fortran.
Working Java code I wrote
public class ProgramingLanguagesTheoryHomeWork {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String inputString = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Duis et ante at eros euismod molestie eu varius ipsum. Aenean gravida pharetra magna quis auctor. Nullam est leo, dictum ac luctus quis, aliquet eu neque. Donec in nisl enim, et malesuada odio. Nulla scelerisque tortor id justo porttitor et vulputate urna pharetra. Pellentesque mollis condimentum elementum. Cras tempor, turpis hendrerit adipiscing lacinia, dolor metus egestas velit, venenatis vulputate leo eros elementum tellus. Vivamus id dui erat. Sed dictum consequat nulla, sed gravida eros mattis in. Suspendisse ac lorem lorem, ut molestie justo. Quisque suscipit velit ut odio euismod elementum. Vestibulum tempus.";
String outputString = format(inputString, 50, 10);
System.out.println(outputString);
}
private static String format(String text, int lineLength, int beginning_indent) {
String result = "";
String[] words = text.split(" ");
int i = 0;
while( i < words.length ) {
int characterCount = 0;
ArrayList<String> wordsForLine = new ArrayList<String>();
int substractForInterval = i == words.length -1 ? 0:1;
while( ( i < words.length ) && (characterCount <= lineLength - words[i].length() - substractForInterval) ) {
if( i == 0 ) {
String beginningIndentWord = "";
for(int k=0;k<beginning_indent;k++) {
beginningIndentWord += " ";
}
wordsForLine.add(beginningIndentWord);
characterCount += beginning_indent + 1;
}
wordsForLine.add(words[i]);
characterCount += words[i].length() + 1; //the one is for the interval after each word
i++;
}
characterCount --; //substract one character for the final interval which must not exist in the formatted text
int numberOfSpacesToAddAfterEachWord = (lineLength - characterCount) / (wordsForLine.size() -1); //substract one word becouse the final word cant really take an inteterval
int numberOfLeftOverSpaces = (lineLength - characterCount) % (wordsForLine.size() -1); //substract one word becouse the final word cant really take an inteterval
int numberOfLeftOverSpacesAdded = 0;
for(int j=0;j<wordsForLine.size();j++) {
result += wordsForLine.get(j);
if( j < (wordsForLine.size() - 1) ) //check to see if its the last word of the line and not add interval to it
result += " ";
if( i != words.length && j < (wordsForLine.size() - 1) ) { //check to see if its the last line that does not need to be converted and it its not the last character from a line which can not take intervals
for(int p=0;p<numberOfSpacesToAddAfterEachWord;p++) {
result += " ";
}
if(numberOfLeftOverSpacesAdded < numberOfLeftOverSpaces ) {
result += " ";
numberOfLeftOverSpacesAdded++;
}
}
}
result += "\n";
}
return result;
}
}
Rewriting in Fortran
Initial problem
I just can`t figure out how in the world am i going to get around variable length strings and also the List variable.
Current problem
Ok After a lot of efforts i finally rolled out this ugly code.
- However it seems that I am missing some key point when it comes to concatenating spaces to a string or at least that's what I think.
- It is not outputting what it should.
