So I am trying to write a program that automates making an Operations Order (or OPORD). It is pretty straight forward, but I am having some issues with my arrays, more specifically how to get them to display properly in the output. Here is my code:
import java.util.*;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class opord {
public static void main(String[] args){
//Variables
int opord_type, phase_a = 0, n = 1, tasks = 0, phase_b = 0, phase_c = 0;
//Strings for paragraph 1
String area_interest = " ", area_ops = " ", enemy_forces = " ", weather = " ", terrain = " ", friendly_forces = " ", civil_consid = " ", attach_detach = " ";
//Strings for paragraph 2
String who = " ", what = " ", where = " ", when = " ", why = " ";
//Strings for paragraph 3
String commander_intent = " ", phases;
Scanner keyboard = new Scanner(System.in);
//Array Lists
ArrayList alist = new ArrayList();
ArrayList blist = new ArrayList();
ArrayList clist = new ArrayList();
//Page One
System.out.println("Welcome to Automated OPORD");
System.out.println("Please choose which type of OPORD you want: (1:Garrison, 2:Tactical)");
opord_type = keyboard.nextInt();
if(opord_type == 1){
//Page Two
System.out.println("Paragraph One: ");
System.out.println("Situation: ");
//Indent One
System.out.println("Enter area of interest: ");
area_interest = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter area of operations: ");
area_ops = keyboard.next();
//Indent Two
System.out.println("Enter weather: ");
weather = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter terrain: ");
terrain = keyboard.next();
//End Indent Two
System.out.println("Enter enemy forces: ");
enemy_forces = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter friendly forces: ");
friendly_forces = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter civil considerations: ");
civil_consid = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter attachments and detachments: ");
attach_detach = keyboard.next();
//End Indent One
//Page Three
System.out.println("Paragraph Two: ");
System.out.println("Mission");
//Indent One
System.out.println("Enter who: ");
who = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter what: ");
what = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter where: ");
where = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter when: ");
when = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Enter why: ");
why = keyboard.next();
//End Intent One
//Page Four
System.out.println("Paragraph Three: ");
System.out.println("Execution: ");
//Indent One
System.out.println("Enter commander's intent: ");
commander_intent = keyboard.next();
System.out.println("Concept of Operations");
//Indent Two
System.out.println("Enter number of phases: ");
phase_a = keyboard.nextInt();
for (int ph=0; ph<phase_a; ph++) {
System.out.println ("Enter phase " + (ph+1));
alist.add (keyboard.next());
}//End Indent Two
System.out.println("Scheme of Movement and Maneuver");
//Indent Three
System.out.println("Enter number of phases: ");
phase_b = keyboard.nextInt();
for (int p=0; p<phase_b; p++) {
System.out.println ("Enter phase " + (p+1));
blist.add (keyboard.next());
}//End Indent Three
System.out.println("Task to Subordinate Units");
//Indent Four
System.out.println("Enter number of tasks: ");
tasks = keyboard.nextInt();
for (int h=0; h<phase_b; h++) {
System.out.println ("Enter task " + (h+1));
clist.add (keyboard.next());
}
}else if(opord_type == 2){
}
//Output for Garrison
System.out.println("Output for Garrison");
for (int ph=0; ph<phase_a; ph++){
System.out.println("Phase " + n++ + ": " + alist.get(ph));
}
for (int p=0; p<phase_b; p++){
System.out.println("Phase " + n++ + ": " + blist.get(p));
}
for (int h=0; h<phase_c; h++){
System.out.println("Phase " + n++ + ": " + clist.get(h));
}
//Output for Tactical
}
}
I need the output of the phases and the tasks to look like this:
Concept of Operations:
Phase One: Here is some text that the user input
Phase Two: Here is some text that the user input
Phase Three: Here is some text that the user input
Phase (whatever the number the user input): Here is some text that the user input
Scheme of Movement and Maneuver:
Phase One: Here is some text that the user input
Phase Two: Here is some text that the user input
Phase Three: Here is some text that the user input
Phase (whatever the number the user input): Here is some text that the user input
Task to Subordinate Units:
Task One: Here is some text that the user input
Task Two: Here is some text that the user input
Task Three: Here is some text that the user input
Task (whatever the number the user input): Here is some text that the user input
Tactical is mostly mirrored with some changes so don't worry about that, I just need to fix this code so that. I just have to get this code finished, any help would be wonderful!
Thank you!
