Converting C# code to Java code

Question

I have to convert this little piece of C# code to Java:

const int AM = 65521;
int GetCCSufix(string a)
{            
    int c = 1, b = 0, d, e;
    var chars = a.ToCharArray();
    for(e =0; e< chars.Length; e ++)
    {
        d = chars[e];
        c = (c + d) % AM;
        b = (b + c) % AM;
    }
    return b << 16 | c;
}

And I made it this:

private int getSuffix(String a) {
    int constant = 65521;
    int c = 1;
    int b = 0;
    int d = 0;
    int e = 0;
    for(e = 0; e < a.length(); e++){
        d = a.charAt(e);
        c = (c + d) % constant;
        b = (b + c) % constant;
    }
    return b << 16 | c;
}

However, this doesn't seem to give me the same output as the C# code. What am i doing wrong?

Could you put a break point on return statement and check if the value of b is same for both codes (for same string) ? — Habib

here the variable d must be char array after that you can covert it using Integer.parseInt(); the charAt() method will return char array only. — Sathesh

@Sathesh: charAt returns a char not a string array... docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/… — pL4Gu33

How does the output differ? Provide some sample input/output for both programs to demonstrate how it's not working, rather than just saying that it's not working. — Servy

I am very sorry, the code I posted is actually working. I just discovered that i was giving it the wrong input a. Sorry for the inconvenience. — Xander

I did a verbatim translation of the original code, see if this gives the correct result. What values are you using for testing, that give different results?

private static final int AM = 65521;

int getCCSuffix(String a) {
    int c = 1, b = 0, d = 0, e;
    char[] chars = a.toCharArray();
    for (e = 0; e < chars.length; e++) {
        d = chars[e];
        c = (c + d) % AM;
        b = (b + c) % AM;
    }
    return b << 16 | c;
}
