Java Reflection - Getting name of color without comparision

In this tutorial I am describing how get value of field/ property defined in class dynamically using Java Reflection.
And i am using it to get name of color (java.awt.Color) using Reflection.

Instead of doing lengthy comparison (shown below), we can do this easily by using java reflection:

   public static String getNameReflection(Color colorParam) {
        try {
            //first read all fields in array
            Field[] field = Class.forName("java.awt.Color").getDeclaredFields();
            for (Field f : field) {
                String colorName = f.getName();
                Class<?> t = f.getType();
                // System.out.println(f.getType());
                // check only for constants - "public static final Color"
                if (t == java.awt.Color.class) {
                    Color defined = (Color) f.get(null);
                    if (defined.equals(colorParam)) {
                        System.out.println(colorName);
                        return colorName.toUpperCase();
                    }
                }
            }
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.out.println("Error... " + e.toString());
        }
        return "NO_MATCH";
    }

Getting name of color by Comparision
One solution to get name of color may be by comparison like this :

    public static String getNameByComparision(Color color) {
        if (color.equals(Color.RED)) {
            return "RED";
        }
        if (color.equals(Color.BLACK)) {
            return "BLACK";
        }
        // ..
        return "NOT_DEFINED";
    }

        double xDist, yDist;

        // result, but avoids a square root.
        if (distSquared <= (a.radius + b.radius) * (a.radius + b.radius)) {
            double speedXocity = b.speedX - a.speedX;

            if (dotProduct > 0) {
                double collisionScale = dotProduct / distSquared;
                double xCollision = xDist * collisionScale;
                double yCollision = yDist * collisionScale;
                // The Collision vector is the speed difference projected on the
                // Dist vector,
                // thus it is the component of the speed difference needed for

Java Collision Detection and bounce - Circle and rectangle

Collision detection between circle(any object) and rectangular wall is simple.
For collision detection we simply compare the distances. And if collision between ball and wall is detected, we change the directions of their speeds for bouncing the ball.

Here is the code:

Collision Detection of two circles - Simple Java Code

Java : Drawing of two circles, mouse motion event handler on one circle, and detect collision with other.

Determining whether or not two circles intersect or overlap or collide is done by comparing the distance between the two circles to the sum of radius of the two circles.


Full working code for collision detection only download here: 


Steps
1)Find the distance between the centers of the two circles(a and b) using the distance formula

 float dxSq = (a.x - b.x) * (a.x - b.x);
 float dySq = (a.y - b.y) * (a.y - b.y);
 int d = (int) Math.sqrt(dxSq + dySq);

2)Then the distance is compared with the radii .

    int r1Pr2 = (int) (a.radius + b.radius);
    if (d < r1Pr2) {
        System.out.println("Collided");
    } else if (d == r1Pr2) {
        System.out.println("Just touching");
    }
