JAVA toString() Override https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=57023.msg1170421#msg1170421
« on: December 09, 2014, 04:48:07 pm »
I asked this earlier in chat, but what happens if I'm calling a toString method when two exist?

In the classes below, I intend on adding the following method findMin() to the BinarySearchTree class.

Code: [Select]
   public void findMin()
   {
   Node min = root;
   if(root.left != null)
   min = root.left;
   System.out.println("The smallest node is: " + min);
   }

My question is that assuming I set root to hold object type Author by setting Node root = Author example, when the print calls min.toString(), will it be the default toString() [which returns a hashcode]? Or will it call Author.toString(), returning the toString() method defined in the Author class?

For reference, I've included the two classes below.

Ah. Node has a toString(), and node.data has a toString(). If you change the findMin() method to use this:

Code: [Select]
System.out.println("The smallest node is: " + min.data);
It prints the Author's name.

I realized that the method I included in the first post needed to loop, so I changed the method to:

Code: [Select]
   public void findMin()
   {
   boolean go = true;
   while(go)
   {
   Node min = root;
   if(min.left == null)
   {
   go = false;
   System.out.println("The smallest node is: " + min);
   }
   else
   {
   min = min.left;
   }
   }
   }

But it's still returning a hash.

I know from my implementation that all nodes either have Author or null as their data. So for when I call a node, is there a way that I can have it treated as Object type Author?

EDIT- Will check .data . I feel stupid for forgetting about that.

Yeah. Definitely feel stupid now. data fixed the print issue. But now I have an issue with with findMin running forever. I have method findMax that is the same, just changing min > max and .left > .right and that method works fine.

Throw in some println's and see what's happening. In the while, before the if-else.

It's not even returning anything when I do, so I guess it's not recursive issues [having it print min.data].

What I'm seeing with recreating this in the findMax method is that it's starting at the intended solution. While this is good for output, I'm concerned with how the logic in the nodes is going.

Look closely at where you are declaring your variables. What is happening during every iteration of the while loop?
