Program Plan Intro

“SELECT” command:

The “SELECT” command is used to retrieve data in a database.

Syntax for selecting values from the table is as follows:

SELECT STUDENT_ID FROM STUDENT;

  • The given query is used to display each student ID from “STUDENT” table.

Subquery:

  • Subquery means one query is placed inside with another query.
    • The inner query is called a subquery.
    • The subquery is calculated first.
      • After the subquery has been determined and the outer query can apply the results of the subquery.

Example:

The example for subquery is given below:

SELECT ORDER_NUMBER FROM ORDER_LINE WHERE BOOK_NUMBER IN(SELECT BOOK_NUMBER FROM BOOKS WHERE CATEGORY = 'CE');

The above query is used to list the order number using subquery.

  • From the given query, the subquery is “(SELECT BOOK_NUMBER FROM BOOKS WHERE CATEGORY = 'CE')”.
  • The subquery is computed first and then outer query is computed.
    • The outer query retrieves the order number on every row in the “ORDER_LINE” table for which the book number is in the results of the subquery.
      • Because that table contains only the book numbers in category “CE”, the results display the preferred list of order numbers.

“MIN” function:

  • It is the one function of aggregate function.
  • The “MIN” function is used to compute the minimum value in a column.

Example:

The example for “MIN” function is given below:

SELECT MIN(MARK_CREDIT) FROM STUDENT;

The above query is used to display the minimum mark credit from “STUDENT” table using “MIN” function.

Change the following code so that there is always at least one way to get from the left corner to the top right, but the labyrinth is still randomized. The player starts at the bottom left corner of the labyrinth. He has to get to the top right corner of the labyrinth as fast he can, avoiding a meeting with the evil dragon. Take care that the player and the dragon cannot start off on walls. Also the dragon starts off from a randomly chosen position   public class Labyrinth {    private final int size;    private final Cell[][] grid;     public Labyrinth(int size) {        this.size = size;        this.grid = new Cell[size][size];        generateLabyrinth();    }     private void generateLabyrinth() {        Random rand = new Random();        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {            for (int j = 0; j < size; j++) {                // Randomly create walls and paths                grid[i][j] = new Cell(rand.nextBoolean());            }        }        // Ensure start and end are…
Change the following code so that it checks the following 3 conditions: 1. there is no space between each cells (imgs) 2. even if it is resized, the components wouldn't disappear 3. The GameGUI JPanel takes all the JFrame space, so that there shouldn't be extra space appearing in the frame other than the game.   Main():         Labyrinth labyrinth = new Labyrinth(10);         Player player = new Player(9, 0);        Dragon dragon = new Dragon(9, 9);         JFrame frame = new JFrame("Labyrinth Game");        GameGUI gui = new GameGUI(labyrinth, player, dragon);         frame.add(gui);        frame.setSize(600, 600);        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);        frame.setVisible(true);   public class GameGUI extends JPanel {    private final Labyrinth labyrinth;    private final Player player;    private final Dragon dragon; //labyrinth, player, dragon are just public classes     private final ImageIcon playerIcon = new ImageIcon("data/images/player.png");…
Make the following game user friendly with GUI, with some simple graphics. The GUI should be in another seperate class, with some ImageIcon, and Game class should be added into the pane. The following code works as this: The objective of the player is to escape from this labyrinth. The player starts at the bottom left corner of the labyrinth. He has to get to the top right corner of the labyrinth as fast he can, avoiding a meeting with the evil dragon. The player can move only in four directions: left, right, up or down. There are several escape paths in all labyrinths. The player’s character should be able to moved with the well known WASD keyboard buttons. If the dragon gets to a neighboring field of the player, then the player dies. Because it is dark in the labyrinth, the player can see only the neighboring fields at a distance of 3 units.  Cell Class: public class Cell { private boolean isWall; public Cell(boolean isWall) { this.isWall = isWall; } public boolean isWall() { return…
