Migrate AS3 to Java

[M4tchB0X3r]

Hi Forum,

im quite new to Java, but i've been programming AS3 for quite a while now and it's time to dig more into java. So i'll be around more often in future
Not much difference, i know, but i'm haveing problems with the datatypes.
I made a flash game that expects an Array of Integers, which atm i am generating inside flash, for various reasons these need to come from the server. Ive got a java servlet and sending the array is not the problem, but when i try to convert my number generator from as3 to java i cant get seem to get the right datatypes.

this is my generator in as3.

function generateRandomNumbers()
		{
			var randomNumbers = new Array;
			var lastRanNum:uint;
			var ranNumber:uint;
			var superProbability = 0.5;
			var jokerProbability = 0.2;
			var superJokerProbability = 0.2;
			var ranSuperNumber:uint;
			var fieldLength:uint = 85;

			for (var i:uint=0; i<(fieldLength); i++)
			{
				var ranSuper = Math.random();
				var ranJoker = Math.random();
				var ranSuperJoker = Math.random();

				if (ranSuper > superProbability)
				{

					if (ranJoker < jokerProbability)
					{
						randomNumbers.push(0);
					}
					else
					{
						ranNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 9) + 1;
						while (ranNumber == lastRanNum || ranNumber == lastRanNum + 10)
						{
							ranNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 9) + 1;
						}

						lastRanNum = ranNumber;
						randomNumbers.push(ranNumber);
					}
				}
				else
				{
					if (ranSuperJoker < superJokerProbability)
					{
						randomNumbers.push(10);
					}
					else
					{
						ranSuperNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 9) + 10;
						while (ranSuperNumber == lastRanNum || ranSuperNumber == lastRanNum - 10)
						{
							ranSuperNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 9) + 10;
						}
						lastRanNum = ranSuperNumber;
						randomNumbers.push(ranSuperNumber);
					}

				}

			}

			//MonsterDebugger.trace(this,randomNumbers);
		}

var randomNumbers = new Array;
in as3 need to become
randomList = new ArrayList<Integer>();

How would i write this in java? Help would be somuch appreciated , i'm sure it will help me understanding the datatype situation alot better.
THX
ps:i can help out in any as3/flash related issues for the future

How would i write this in java?

ArrayList<Integer> randomList = new ArrayList<Integer>();

@Fubarable: I think he means Java; he refers to a servlet, ArrayList, and Integer types (none of which are present in JavaScript).

Thanks Zack. Deleting my erroneous earlier post.

Yes i mean Java! i'm fetching vars from a DB with java persistence, and additionally i want to create that array and send it to flash along with the rest.
i'm haveing troubles with this for example

ranNumber = Math.floor(Math.random() * 9) + 1;

java semms to expect ranNumber to be a Double, but to add it to the ArrayList it needs to be an int
whe i try

ranNumber.intValue()

it cant resolve method

Java is case sensitive. Double is a class and double is a primitive.
The Math.floor() method returns a double. You can cast it to an int by adding (int) before the Math....

to add it to the ArrayList it needs to be an int

Another item. You can only add objects to an ArrayList. So you would be adding Integer class objects.
The compiler with automatically convert (autobox) an int to an Integer if you use the add() method.

THX!!!

ranNumber = [B](int)[/B]Math.floor(Math.random() * 9) + 1;

thats what i was looking for ....
