Program Plan Intro

Largest Element

Program Plan:

  • Define the method “findMax()” which has array values, start value “start”, and end value “end” as an argument.
    • Check the “if” condition, check the value of “start” is equal to “0”.
      • If the condition is true, assign “ans[start]” into variable “ans”.
    • Check the “if” condition, check the value of “start” greater than “end”.
      • Return the value of “ans”.
    • If the condition returns false, using “if” condition check the greater value.
      • If the condition is true, assign “arr[start]” to variable “ans”.
    • Call the recursive call “findMax()” for answer.
  • Define the “main()” function:
    • Declare and initialize the appropriate variables.
    • Call the “findMax()” method and print the largest number on screen.

Write a FancyCar class to support basic operations such as drive, add gas, honk horn, and start engine. FancyCar.java is provided with method stubs. Follow each step to gradually complete all methods. Note: This program is designed for incremental development. Complete each step and submit for grading before starting the next step. Only a portion of tests pass after each step but confirm progress. The main() method includes basic method calls. Add statements in main() as methods are completed to support development mode testing. Step 0. Declare private fields for miles driven as shown on the odometer (int), gallons of gas in tank (double), miles per gallon or MPG (double), driving capacity (double), and car model (String). Note the provided final variable indicates the gas tank capacity of 14.0 gallons. Step 1 (2 pts). 1) Complete the default constructor by initializing the odometer to five miles, tank is full of gas, miles per gallon is 24.0, and the model is "Old Clunker". 2)…
