Program Plan Intro

Type Parameters:

  • Type parameters are naming conventions and are important in java generic.
  • The type parameters are used to keep the type safety especially when using the java collections like, “ArrayList”, “HashMap” and so on.
    • For example, the array list is not restricted to accept any particular set of data. So, it accepts any kind of data in it, even though the user is not indented to give these kinds of values.
    • So, it needs to be controlled and the type parameters help to keep the type safety of block of code.
    • The type parameters are the names like, “K”, “E” are given at the time of declaring the class or methods, then at the time of defining, the type of these parameters are specified clearly.
  • The common type parameters are,
    • “T”-Type
    • “E”-Element
    • “K”-Key
    • “N”-Number
    • “V”-Value
  • Each type parameter has their own purpose like, the type “K” is used represent some keys and the type “N” is used to represent some numbers.
  • The type parameters can be used as the arguments of a method, return type of a method, type of class and so on.
  • For a generic class or method, the user can give different combinations of type parameters as”<K, N>”.
  • Then the user need to specify what is the type of this type parameters specifically when defining class members like, “ArrayList”, “HashMap” and so on.

If a UDP datagram is sent from host A, port P to host B, port Q, but at host B there is no process listening to port Q, then B is to send back an ICMP Port Unreachable message to A. Like all ICMP messages, this is addressed to A as a whole, not to port P on A. (a)  Give an example of when an application might want to receive such ICMP messages. (b)  Find out what an application has to do, on the operating system of your choice, to receive such messages. (c)  Why might it not be a good idea to send such messages directly back to the originating port P on A?

This week we will be building a regression model conceptually for our discussion assignment. Consider your current workplace (or previous/future workplace if not currently working) and answer the following set of questions. Expand where needed to help others understand your thinking:  What is the most important factor (variable) that needs to be predicted accurately at work? Why? Justify its selection as your dependent variable.
