Hi guy's for my computer science class I been practicing using the string class, I created a method to create three random letter where the first and last are consonants and the middle is a vowel. The method tries to create the word cat. Here is my code http://pastebin.com/VFC1J53T if anyone know's a simpler way to do this please let me know. Also can someone explain why for  k = r.nextInt(21) + 1; , were r is a random object to create a random integer between 1 and 21, I had to add 1?

Code: [Select]

return word;
word = firstWord + secondWord + thirdWord;
System.out.println(word);
the two bottom lines are unreachable code. Return obviously returns from the method to the main program, thus ends the execution flow of the method before your word is set, your return should be NULL. Have you tried this method even once?
(Also Eclipse should mark unreachable code)

Simpler way:

Code: [Select]

public static String createWord() {
          String word = "cat";
          return word;
}

r is a random object that is used for random real values between 0 and 1. The method nextInt(int n) returns a pseudorandom integer number between 0 (inclusive) and n (exclusive) on a random object.
Thus r.nextInt(21) gives a random int between 0 and 20, adding +1 shifts the range from 1 to 21.

I made my own version of your code in pawn.
Check it out and you might learn a thing or two, if you're lucky.

As enzo said above though, there are easier ways to do this, but i guess it's for educational purposes.

Lol not even my professors are so "modest", and they are genius 

Btw i don't know how much it could help him since it's another programming language

Thank's Fuse and Enzo for the help, also I noticed i pasted the wrong code but its the same thing but without the error after the return. http://pastebin.com/jBB61mfr
