COMP 1230
Lab 2 (Java Review Exercises)
Total Points: 45
Due: Wednesday, May 23, 2018 by Midnight
In this lab, you will model some of the real-world objects into digital objects using Java. Also you will do exercises using Arrays of objects. These exercises will help you understand how to model/create a class in Java and how to test the classes with test class.
Submission Instruction:
For each exercise, please test your code by running it with at least three different test cases by changing the input values. Take a snap-shot (screen capture) of your test runs and save them for submission. Please put all the source codes and snap- shots (screen captures) of your test runs in a folder. Name the folder as Lab2_FName (replace the FName with your first name) and zip it. Submit the zipped folder through the moodle.tru.ca.
Exercise 1 [10 points]:
Write a static method named numUnique that accepts an array of integers as a parameter and returns the number of unique values in that array. The array may contain positive integers in no particular order, which means that the duplicates will not be grouped together. For example, if a variable int[]list={7,5,22,7,23,9,1,5,2,35,6,11,12,7,9}; then the call of numUnique(list) should return 11 because this list has 11 unique values (1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 22, 23, and 35). It is possible that the list might not have any duplicates. For example if the list contain this sequence of values: |
int[] list = {1, 2, 11, 17, 19, 20, 23, 24, 25, 26, 31, 34, 37, 40, 41}; Then a call to the method would return 15 because this list contains 15 different values. If passed an empty list, your method should return 0. Note: It might be beneficial to sort the array before you count the unique elements. To sort an integer array, you can use Arrays.sort() method. |
Exercise 2 [10 points]:
In this exercise, you need to complete the following static methods and then use them.
public class Password{ public static boolean passwordValidator(String pass1, String
pass2){ // Your code goes here...
} public static String passwordGenerator(int length){
// Your code goes here }
}
- The method passwordValidator takes two alpha-numeric passwords and returns true only if all the following conditions are met:
- i) Length of the password must be between 8 and 32 characters.
- ii) Password should contain at least one upper case and one lower case alphabet.
- iii) Password should contain at least two numbers.
- iv) Password should contain at least one special character from this list {!, ~, _, %,
$, #}.
- v) Both the password strings must match.
- The method passwordGenerator – generates and returns a random password that satisfy the above-mentioned criteria with a specified length.
- Now, write a PasswordTester class – in which you should test these static methods.
Here is an example test run:
Enter a new password: test123 Re-enter the same password: test123
Password should contain at least 8 characters.
Enter a new password: qwerty123 Re-enter the same password: qwerty123
Password must contain at least 1 capital letter character.
Enter a new password: qwerTy123 Re-enter the same password: qwerTy123
Password must contain at least 1 special symbol.
Enter a new password: qwerTy_1 Re-enter the same password: qwerTy_1
Password must contain at least 2 numbers.
Enter a new password: qwerTy_12 Re-enter the same password: qwerty_12
Both passwords must match.
Enter a new password: qwerTy_12 Re-enter the same password: qwerTy_12
Success!
The test cases shown above are sample only. When you test your code, you should test it for all possible cases. If the user cannot select a valid password within 7 tries, then your program should suggest four random passwords (with different length) to the user that satisfies all rules for the password.
Take snapshots of different test runs for your program and attach those snapshots during submission.
Exercise 3 [10 Points]:
DateUtil: Complete the following methods in a class called DateUtil: |
|
To find the day of the week (Reference: Wiki “Determination of the day of the week”):
- Based on the first two digit of the year, get the number from the following “century” table.
- Take note that the entries 4, 2, 0, 6 repeat.
1700- |
1800- |
1900- |
2000- |
2100- |
2200- |
2300- |
2400- |
4 |
2 |
0 |
6 |
4 |
2 |
0 |
6 |
- Add to the last two digit of the year.
- Add to “the last two digit of the year divide by 4, truncate the fractional part”.
- Add to the number obtained from the following month table:
Non- Leap Year Leap Year |
Jan 0 6 |
Feb 3 2 |
Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 3614625035 same as above |
- Add to the day.
- The sum modulus 7 gives the day of the week, where 0 for SUN, 1 for MON, …, 6 for SAT.
For example: 2012, Feb, 17
(6 + 12 + 12/4 + 2 + 17) % 7 = 5 (Fri)
The skeleton of the program is as follows:
/* Utilities for Date Manipulation */ public class DateUtil { // Month's name – for printing public static String strMonths[] = {"Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"}; // Number of days in each month (for non-leap years) public static int daysInMonths[] = {31, 28, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31, 31, 30, 31, 30, 31}; // Returns true if the given year is a leap year public static boolean isLeapYear(int year) { …… } // Return true if the given year, month, day is a valid date // year: 1-9999 |
// day: 1-28|29|30|31. The last day depends on year and month public static boolean isValidDate(int year, int month, int day) { ...... } // Return the day of the week, 0:Sun, 1:Mon, ..., 6:Sat public static int getDayOfWeek(int year, int month, int day) { ...... } // Return String "xxxday d mmm yyyy" (e.g., Wednesday 29 Feb 2012) |
public static String printDate(int year, int month, int day) { ...... }
public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println(isLeapYear(1900)); System.out.println(isLeapYear(2000)); System.out.println(isLeapYear(2011)); System.out.println(isLeapYear(2012));
// false // true // false // true
System.out.println(isValidDate(2012, 2, 29)); // true System.out.println(isValidDate(2011, 2, 29)); // false System.out.println(isValidDate(2099, 12, 31)); // true System.out.println(isValidDate(2099, 12, 32)); // false
System.out.println(getDayOfWeek(1982, 4, 24)); // 6:Sat
System.out.println(getDayOfWeek(2000, 1, 1)); // 6:Sat System.out.println(getDayOfWeek(2054, 6, 19)); // 5:Fri System.out.println(getDayOfWeek(2012, 2, 17)); // 5:Fri
System.out.println(toString(2012, 2, 14)); // Tuesday 14 Feb 2012 }
}
You can compare the day obtained with the Java’s Calendar class as follows:
// Construct a Calendar instance with the given year, month and day
Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar(year, month – 1, day); // month is 0-based // Get the day of the week number: 1 (Sunday) to 7 (Saturday)
int dayNumber = cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK);
String[] calendarDays = { “Sunday”, “Monday”, “Tuesday”, “Wednesday”,
“Thursday”, “Friday”, “Saturday” }; System.out.println(“It is ” + calendarDays[dayNumber – 1]);
// Print result
Foot Note:
The calendar we used today is known as Gregorian calendar, which came into effect in October 15, 1582 in some countries and later in other countries. It replaces the Julian calendar. 10 days were removed from the calendar, i.e., October 4, 1582 (Julian) was followed by October 15, 1582 (Gregorian). The only difference between the Gregorian and the Julian calendar is the “leap-year rule”. In Julian calendar, every four years is a
leap year. In Gregorian calendar, a leap year is a year that is divisible by 4 but not divisible by 100, or it is divisible by 400, i.e., the Gregorian calendar omits century years which are not divisible by 400. Furthermore, Julian calendar considers the first day of the year as march 25th, instead of January 1st.
This above algorithm work for Gregorian dates only. It is difficult to modify the above algorithm to handle pre- Gregorian dates. A better algorithm is to find the number of days from a known date.
Exercise 4 [15 Marks]
Address Book Entry. Your task is to create a class called “AddressBookEntry” that contains an address book entry. The following table describes the information that an address book entry has.
- Providethenecessaryaccessor/getterandmutator/settermethodsforallthe ivars.
- Youshouldprovideaconstructorthatwillinitializeivarswiththesupplied values from the client.
- Also provide a “public String toString()” method that will return a string in the following format:
“Name: ”+<name>+”\t\t Address: “+<address>+” \t\t Tel: “+ <tel> + “\t\tEmail:” + <email>;where <name>, <address>, <tel> and <email> should be replaced by the receiver’s current state or field’s values.
Save this class in a separate file called “AddressBookEntry.java” and compile it.
AddressBook. Create another class called “AddressBook” in “AddressBook.java” and save it the same directory. The AddressBook class should contain 100 entries of the “AddressBookEntry” objects (use the class you created in the above exercise). You can use the “AddressBookEntry” class as long as both of the classes reside in the same folder. You should design and provide the following public interfaces for the address book class. In addition, please provide constructors as you think appropriate.
- Add entry – will add a new address book entry at the end of the address book, and returns “true” if the entry is successfully added, “false” otherwise.
- Delete entry – will delete an existing valid entry from the address book. The client should supply an index number to this method that will specify which entry from the address book the client wants to delete. This method returns “true” if the deletion is successful, and returns “false” otherwise. Notice that the index must be a valid entry value form the address book.
- View all entries – will display the non-empty entries of the address book with their sequence number on the screen. For example:
1. Name: Alex Address: 123 abc St. Kamloops Tel: 123-234-2192 Email: alex@tru.ca 2. Name: Dan Address: 231 XYZ St. Kamloops Tel: 223-222-2234 Email: dan@tru.ca …
d. Update an entry – will update a specified non-empty entry. (One way to design this method is that the client would supply an index number to update that entry, for example, if the method is called “updateEntry”, then to update the first entry of the address book client may call the method as follows:
updateEntry(1, “Poly”, “123 McGill Rd. Kamloops”, “123-435-7532”, poly@tru.cs);
Finally create a test client called “AddressBookTestClient” in another separate file that will have the main method and test the functionality of the address book for all the method. Make sure you test it for all possible boundary conditions in many possible ways.
Submit all java source codes doc files (make a single zip file, see the submission instruction at the beginning of the assignment) through the moodle.tru.ca.
Happy coding!
