Program Plan Intro

Finding largest element in an array list

Program plan:

Filename: “Measurable.java”

This code snippet creates an interface “Measurable”. In the code,

  • Import the required packages.
  • Define a class “Measurable”.
    • Define the class member “getMeasure()”.
    • Define the method “largest()”.
      • If the size of the “objects” is equal to 0,
        • Return a value “null”.
      • Declare a variable “largest” and set its value.
      • Iterate a “for” loop,
        • If “obj” is less than “largest”,
          • Set “largest” equal to “obj”.
      • Return “largest”.

Filename: “BankAccount.java”

This code snippet creates a class “BankAccount”. In the code,

  • Define a class “BankAccount”.
    • Define the class member “balance”.
    • Define the constructor “BankAccount()”.
      • Set the value of “balance”.
    • Define the method “deposit()”.
      • Set the value of “balance”.
    • Define the method “withdraw()”.
      • Set the value of “balance”.
    • Define the method “getBalance()”.
      • Return the value of “balance”.
    • Define the method “getMeasure()”.
      • Return the value of “balance”.

Filename: “Country.java”

This code snippet creates a class “Country”. In the code,

  • Define a class “Country”.
    • Define the class members “name” and “area”.
    • Define the constructor “Country()”.
      • Set the value of “name” and “area”.
    • Define the method “getName()”.
      • Return the value of “name”.
    • Define the method “getArea()”.
      • Return the value of “area”.
    • Define the method “getMeasure()”.
      • Return the value of “area”.

Filename: “MeasurableTester.java”

This code snippet creates a class “MeasurableTester”. In the code,

  • Define a class “MeasurableTester”.
    • Define the “main” method.
      • Define an array list “accounts” and set the objects to it.
      • Add elements to “accounts”.
      • Call the method “largest()” and save the value to “largestAccount”.
      • Call the method “getBalance()” and print the value.
      • Print the expected value.
      • Define an array list “contries” and set the objects to it.
      • Add elements to “contries”.
      • Call the method “largest()” and save the value to “largestCountry”.
      • Call the method “getArea()” and print the value.
      • Print the expected value.
      • Call the method “getName()” and print the value.
      • Print the expected value.

Given the following Extended-BNF grammar of the basic mathematical expressions:  Show the derivation steps for the expression: ( 2 + 3 ) * 6 – 20 / ( 3 + 1 ) Draw the parsing tree of this expression. SEE IMAGE
Whentheuserenters!!,themostrecentcommandinthehistoryisexecuted.In the example above, if the user entered the command: Osh> !! The ‘ls -l’ command should be executed and echoed on user’s screen. The command should also be placed in the history buffer as the next command. Whentheuserentersasingle!followedbyanintegerN,theNthcommandin the history is executed. In the example above, if the user entered the command: Osh> ! 3 The ‘ps’ command should be executed and echoed on the user’s screen. The command should also be placed in the history buffer as the next command. Error handling: The program should also manage basic error handling. For example, if there are no commands in the history, entering !! should result in a message “No commands in history.” Also, if there is no command corresponding to the number entered with the single !, the program should output "No such command in history."
