Not sure how to do this method

[nicomen]

Here are the specs:

2. Revise the Collection class to calculate and display (to the screen)
the average rating AND average length for all James Bond movies. Your
enhancements should include methods called displayAveRating and displayAveMinutes in this class.
Your additional output should look as follows:

The average rating for a James Bond Movie is 2.41 out of a possible 4.0
The average length for a James Bond Movie is 2 hrs and 6.2 minutes

3. Revise the program to sort the movies by year of release.

I'm really not sure how to create #2 & #3....please help!
------------------------

Here's my code:

import chn.util.*;
import apcslib.*;

public class Collection
{
private Movie[] movieList;

public Collection(String fileName)
{
loadData(fileName);
}

public void Search()
{
String actor = "Sean Connery";
double ratingToExceed = 2.0;
int minutesToExceed = 120;
int index = sequentialSearch(movieList, actor, ratingToExceed,
minutesToExceed);
System.out.println("index = " + index);
System.out.println(movieList[index].toString());
}
public int sequentialSearch(Movie[] list, String dude, double rating, int
minutes)
{
for (int i = 0; i < movieList.length; i++)
{
if (dude.compareTo(movieList[i].getBondActor()) == 0 &&
movieList[i].getFilmMin() + 60*movieList[i].getFilmHrs() >=
minutes &&
movieList[i].getFilmRating() >= rating)
return i;
}
return -1;
}
private void loadData(String fileName)
{
String movieTitle;
String bondName;
int yearReleased;
double movieRating;
int lengthHours;
int lengthMinutes;

FileInput inFile = new FileInput(fileName);

int numReleases = inFile.readInt();
movieList = new Movie[numReleases];

for (int i = 0; i < numReleases; i++)
{
movieTitle = inFile.readLine();
bondName = inFile.readLine();
yearReleased = inFile.readInt();
movieRating = inFile.readDouble();
lengthHours = inFile.readInt();
lengthMinutes = inFile.readInt();

movieList[i] = new Movie(movieTitle, bondName, yearReleased,
movieRating, lengthHours,
lengthMinutes);
}
}

public void displayInfo()
{
System.out.print(Format.center("Film Title",34));
System.out.print(Format.center("Bond Actor",16));
System.out.print(Format.center("Year",6));
System.out.print(Format.center("Rating",7));
System.out.print(Format.right("Film Length",16));
System.out.println();
System.out.println();
for (int i = movieList.length - 1; i >= 0 ; i--)
{
String output = movieList[i].toString();
System.out.println(output);
}
}

public void displayAveRating()
{
}

public void displayAveMinutes()
{
}

public void Sort()
{
quickSort(movieList,0,movieList.length - 1);
}

private void quickSort(Movie[] list, int first, int last)
{
int g = first;
int h = last;
int midIndex;
Movie dividingValue;

midIndex = (first + last) / 2;
dividingValue = list[midIndex];
do
{
while (list[g].compareTo(dividingValue) < 0)
{
g++;
}
while (list[h].compareTo(dividingValue) > 0)
{
h--;
}
if (g <= h)
{
// swap g and h
Movie temp = list[g];
list[g] = list[h];
list[h] = temp;
g++;
h--;
}
} while (g < h);
if (h > first)
{
quickSort(list, first, h);
}
if (g < last)
{
quickSort(list, g, last);
}
}

public static void main(String[] args)
{
Collection seriesData = new Collection("bond.txt");
seriesData.Sort();
seriesData.displayInfo();
seriesData.displayAveRating();
seriesData.displayAveMinutes();
seriesData.Search();
}

}

//-------------------- End of Collection class --------------------//

For your second task in the assignment, you only need private variables which will record the total of ratings and movie lengths. Divide it by the total elements before displaying.
For your third task, you need to use Collections.sort() with a custom Comparator. Refer to some tutorial
