Java Exercises: Accepts two integer values from the user and return the larger values

Java Basic: Exercise-63 with Solution

Write a Java program that accepts two integer values from the user and return the larger values. However if the two values are the same, return 0 and return the smaller value if the two values have the same remainder when divided by 6.
Test Data:
Input the first number : 12
Input the second number: 13
Result: 13
Input the first number : 12
Input the second number: 12
Result: 0
Input the first number : 6
Input the second number: 18
Result: 6

Sample Solution:

Java Code:

import java.util.*;
 public class Exercise63 {
 public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Input the first number : ");
        int a = in.nextInt();  
		System.out.print("Input the second number: ");
		int b = in.nextInt(); 
		System.out.println("Result: "+result(a, b));
    }
	public static int result(int x, int y)
     {  
	if(x == y)
		return 0;
	    if(x % 6 == y % 6)
		    return (x < y) ? x : y;
	    return (x > y) ? x : y;
     }
}

Sample Output: 

Input the first number : 12                                            
Input the second number: 13                                            
Result: 13

countOccurrences

Counts the occurrences of a value in an array.

Use Arrays.stream().filter().count() to count total number of values that equals the specified value.

public static long countOccurrences(int[] numbers, int value) {
    return Arrays.stream(numbers)
            .filter(number -> number == value)
            .count();
}
