"I have modeled an assistant for a tech conference. Since there are so many attendees, registration."
public class ConferenceRegistrationAssistant {
public int getLineFor(String lastName) {
/* If the last name is between A thru M send them to line 1
Otherwise send them to line 2 */
int line;
boolean isHit = lastName.indexOf(lastName) >=13;
if (isHit) {
line = 1;
} else {
line += 1;
}
return line;
}
}

71,830 PointsHi there. Here's one way. For each name sent to the method, they expect either a 1 or a 2 back:
public int getLineFor(String lastName) {
/* If the last name is between A thru M send them to line 1
Otherwise send them to line 2 */
int line = 0;
if (lastName.charAt(0) <= 'M') {
line = 1;
} else {
line = 2;
}
return line;
}
