Question

This is the question I was given:
Write a program that reads in ten numbers and displays distinct numbers (i.e., if a number appears
multiple times, it is displayed only once). (Hint: Read a number and store it to an array if it is new. If the
number is already in the array, discard it. After the input, the array contains the distinct numbers.)

I can't get my program to weed out the repeat numbers. Please help.

This is what I have:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class distinctNumbers
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

int[] nums = new int[10];
int num = 0;

for(int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++)
{
System.out.println("Enter number " + (i+1) + ": ");
int newN = input.nextInt();
nums[i] = newN;

boolean isInArray = false;

for(int j = 0; j < num; j++)
{
if(newN == nums[j])
isInArray = true;
break;
}
}
for(int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++)
{
System.out.println(nums[i]);
}
}
}

Explanation / Answer

import java.util.Scanner;

public class distinctNumbers
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

int[] nums = new int[10];
int num = 0;

for(int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++)
{
System.out.println("Enter number " + (i+1) + ": ");
int newN = input.nextInt();
boolean notfound=true;
for(int j = 0; j < num; j++)
{
if(newN == nums[j])
{
notfound = false;
break;
}
}
if(notfound)
{
nums[num] = newN;
num++;
}
}

for(int i = 0; i < num; i++)
{
System.out.println(nums[i]);
}

}
}

// fully tested Enjoy.
