Write a method that takes two string parameters, and tells whether the first is a substring of the second. You can't use framework methods that do this for you, such as indexOf(). In other words, you have to write the loops yourself. But, you can use the primitive methods such as charAt().
Also analyze the program's performance and state the big-O complexity of your method.
Provide a screenshot of the code working.
What is a HashMap? What is its purpose and how do you use it? Answer these questions in writing, and use the Java library documentation of Map and HashMap for your responses. Note that you will find it hard to understand everything, as the documentation for these classes is not very good. We will discuss the details later in this chapter, but see what you can find out on your own before reading on.
Look at the API of the Point class and find out how to construct a Point object. Write a Java program
“PointTester”, that constructs two points with coordinates (3, 4) and (–3, –4). Find the distance
between them, using the distance method. Print the distance, as well as the expected value. (You may
draw a sketch on graph paper to find the value you will expect.)
- Update your program so it randomly select coordinate points (x,y), where −50 ≤ ? ≤ 50 ??? ? ∈
[−90, 90].

- In your workshop project create a new Java class (BasicArrayList) and convert the above code to work for ArrayLists. 1. You will need to import at least one package, but you do not need to import java.lang, which is the fundamental Java package (the classes you automatically get when you write Java programs). 2. Convert the first for-loop first. Don't forget you cannot use the ArrayList method to control the for-loop (so just use the number 4). 3. Convert the last for-loop next, to view the contents of your ArrayList. 4. Convert the middle for-loop last. You may want to convert the one line of array code to two lines of ArrayList code. 5. Finally, before the last for-loop, add a new element (0) to position 0 of the ArrayList. You should print the contents of the modified ArrayList. Here is a quick review of how array elements are modified and accessed: 1. public class BasicArray{ 2. public static void main(String[] args) int[] basic = new int[4]; for (int i=0; iarrow_forwardWritten in C++ language.arrow_forwardPlease show work in javaarrow_forwardWrite the code in java and please dont plagarise or copy from other sources write it on your own and read the question carefully and do what in the question says thank you.arrow_forwardExamine the getBalance method's header and body, and then evaluate how they stack up against those of the getPrice method. I'm confused as to the differences between the two.arrow_forwardSay we are about to build an ArrayList. Your ArrayList should guarantee that the array capacity is at most four times the number of elements. What would you like to do to maintain such a limit on the capacity?

And could you describe what is the advantage of using GUIs over Command-Line Interface (CLI) operations?arrow_forwardPlease help me create a cave class for a Hunt the Wumpus game (in java). You can read the rules in it's entirety of the Hunt the Wumpus game online to get a better idea of the specifications. It's an actual game. INFORMATION: The object of this game is to find and kill the Wumpus within a minimum number of moves, before you get exhausted or run out of arrows. There is only one way to win: you must discover which room the Wumpus is hiding in and kill it by shooting an arrow into that room from an adjacent room. The Cave The Wumpus lives in a cave of 30 rooms. The rooms are hexagonal. Each room has up to 3 tunnels, allowing access to 1, 2 or 3 (out of 6) adjacent rooms. The attached diagram shows the layout of rooms in the cave. The map wraps around such that rooms on the edges (white cells) have neighbors from the opposite edge (blue cells).
