Having problems linking this program to this class. The program takes in a set of String + double arrays and goes through a series of sorts to yield a result. Our instructions are to sort then by name and sort then by price.
Main problem is that the Strings are displaying as hexadecimal eg(Item@4fjipe) etc.
Second problem is my sorts. I just have no idea how to make them work. Please help if at all possible. I will include both the class and the program. Bear in mind they are 2 different .java working together. I'm a beginner, by the way.
public class Item
{
private String itemName; // hold the name of the item
private double itemPrice; // hold the price of the item
public Item(String s, double p) // Constructor
{
itemName = s;
itemPrice = p;
}//end constructor
public void setName(String n)
{//method to set the item name
itemName = n;
}//end method
public String getName()
{//method to get the item name
return itemName;
}//end method
public double setPrice(double p1)
{//method to set the price of the item
itemPrice = p1;
return itemPrice;
}//end method
public double getPrice()
{//method to get the price of the item
return itemPrice;
}//end method
}//end class
AND NOW THE OTHER BEGINS. THIS ONE IS STILL A HOT MESS.
