LightController And Circle Class - Creating A Constructor
Jan 6, 2015
I have two classes LightController & Circle. I need to use the LightController class to do the following:
Creates an instance of Circle with a diameter of 50 and a colour of OUColour.GREEN and assigns this new circle to the instance variable light.
Sets the xPos of light to 122.
Sets the yPos of light to 162.
I am struggling to write the correct line of code to set the colour to green and set diameter to 50.
Code for the two classes below.
001
import ou.*;
002
import java.util.*;
003
/**
004
* Class LightController
005
* This class uses the Circle class, and the Shapes window

I've a parent class with a argument constructor like below(a sample code)
public class Parent {
Parent(String name) {
System.out.println(name);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
}
}
Also I've child.class which extends Parent.class as shown below,
public class child extends Parent {
child(String name) {
super(name);
}
}
Now, I want create/modify the constructor which is in child, by taking "int i" as an input instead of "String name". How can I do that? Run time I want to execute child constructor not a parent constructor.
Condition is: Without making any changes to the Parent class

Instructions
Create a WordCounter class with a constructor that takes a file name as a parameter
The class should have two fields: one for the file name and one for a HashMap to store word count information
The constructor should call a private method, countWords, that reads in the file and counts the word frequencies
The class should contain a get method for each field, as well as a print method that prints out the map in the following format:word:frequency
When printing, the map should be sorted by either the word order or frequency (Hint: see Collections.sort)
You should include the sample text file on Blackboard. This is what i got so far
Java Code:
import java.io.File;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collections;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Scanner;
public class WordCounter

Is a constructor required to create an object, if one of its instance or class variables haven't been instantiated? Like private String string;

I want to create a simple app that takes a name from the console then compares the name to a small phone book,when the name matches another name it will return the associated phone number.
I have a small contacts class which has name and number fields,Then I have a phone book class which populates an array with 4 contact objects that I can compare the entered number against.
here is my contacts class
public class Contact
{
String name;
int number;
[Code].....
In the main method I am just trying to print out one of the fields for one contact to see if I can actually access it to compare it to the name entered.Its saying "MaryJones" cannot be resolved to a type.I'm guessing I cant create all that code in the constructor?

import java.util.ArrayList;
public class LectureRoom{
private String courseName;
private String roomNumber;
private String Lecturer;
private ArrayList <Student> studentList;
[Code] .....
Question:
Given the following BlueJ class diagram
Lecturer class (same with previous lab, no changes needed)
Student class (same with previous lab, no changes needed)
LectureRoom (changes occurs here)
1. LectureRoom has roomNumber (e.g. A301), courseName (e.g. Java), lecturer (a reference to a Lecturer object), and studentList (a reference to an ArrayList that stores Student object).
2. LectureRoom has a constructor that receives courseName, roomNumber, and Lecturer. The constructor then sets/assign the courseName, roomNumber and Lecturer. This constructor also creates the studentList arraylist object.

Prompt: Write a class encapsulating the concept of a circle, assuming a circle has the following attributes: a Point representing the center of the circle, and the radius of the circle, and integer.
Include a constructor, the accessors and mutators, and methods toString and equals.
Also include methods returning the perimeter ( 2 x 𝜋 x 𝑟 ) and area ( 𝜋 x 𝑟^2) of the circle.
Write a client (application) class to test all the methods in your class. I started out trying to thing how to do this and I mapped out a certain idea but do not know how to incorporate the point represent the center of the circle. I am not sure how to proceed further..
import java.awt.*;
public class Circle {
public static void main(String[] args) {
final double PI = 3.14;
int x,y, radius = 4;
double area;
double perimeter;

I thought you can only create a new object using private implementations and then using a constructor to set your arguments inside the parameters of the constructor to the instance variables but how come he created an object without any private implementations and just methods inside the constructor.
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class MyWindow extends JFrame {
public static void main(String[]args){
new MyWindow();
}
public MyWindow(){
setSize(500,500);
setVisible(true);
setTitle("MyWindow");
}
}

Its written that every constructor calls its super class constructor. And we know, constructors are called to create an object. Does it mean that if I am creating an object of a class, I am actually creating objects of all its super class???

This is the error i am receiving:

So i declared a class in main class but it seems there's error when i compile:
constructor xx in class xx cannot applied to given types
This is my java class:
public class trainer extends person{
String classType;
public trainer(String name, String gender, String address, int id, String classType) {
super(name,gender,address,id);
this.classType=classType;
[Code] ....
And this is the way i declared in main class:
trainer tr = new trainer();
And what i want to do is:
tr.toString();

Design a class named Person and its two subclasses named Student and Employee. Make Faculty and Staff subclasses of Employee. There is also a MyDate class as explained below. A person has a name, address, phone number, and email address. A student has a status (freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior). Define the status as an integer which can have the value 0 (for "Freshman"),
1 (for "Sophomore"),
2 (for "Junior"), and
3 (for "Senior"),
but don't allow the status to be set to any other values. An employee has an office, salary, and dateHired. The dateHired is a MyDate field, which contains the fields: year, month, and day. The MyDate class does not explicitly inherit from any class, and it should have a no-arg constructor that sets the year, month, and day to the current year, month, and day. The MyDate class should also have a three-argument constructor that gets three int arguments for the year, month and day to set the year, month and day.
A faculty member has office hours and a rank. Define the rank as a String (for values like "Professor" or "Instructor"). A staff member has a title, which is also a String. Use data types for the fields as specified, or where one is not specified, use a data type that is appropriate for the particular field. Write a test program called TestEveryone.java that creates a Person, Student, Employee, Faculty, and Staff object, and invoke their toString() method (you don't need to call the objects' toString() method explicitly).
Note: Your MyDate.java class is the object class that your dateHired field is created from in the Employee.java class.
Do not use the Person, Employee or Faculty classes defined on pages 383 and 384 of the book. Create new ones.Here is the code I have so far concerning the employee and MyDate.
public class Employee extends Person {
private String office;
private double salary;
//private MyDate dateHired;
//7 argument constructor for employee
public Employee(String name, String phoneNumber, String email, String address, String office, double salary /*MyDate dateHired*/) {
super(name, phoneNumber, email, address);
[code]....

In the process of creating a new class, I need to move my main method from the class SaveDate to the class DynamicTest. Below I have listed the code of both classes.The objective is to be able to run my program from the DynamicTest Class. I need understanding the process of moving my main method to a different class and creating an Object of a class and calling its method.
public class SaveData {
private static final Map<String, Object> myCachedTreeMap = new TreeMap<String, Object>();
public static final List<String> getLines(final String resourceParam, final Charset charset) throws IOException{
System.out.println("Please get: "+resourceParam);
if (myCachedTreeMap.containsKey(resourceParam) ) {
// Use the cached file, to prevent an additional read.

This code works
public class RedShapeDecorator extends ShapeDecorator {
public RedShapeDecorator(Shape decoratedShape) {
super(decoratedShape);
}
Below results in an error
public class RedShapeDecorator extends ShapeDecorator {
protected Shape decoratedShape;
public RedShapeDecorator(Shape decoratedShape) {
this. decoratedShape=decoratedShape;
}
So I am guessing that if you extend class, you should use super to pass objects?

I am writing a program that should take a url and scan the page for any links. It is in the beginning stages, but I ran into an error when I tried to extend a class. There's a lot going on in this code, but the error is caused by the constructor.
Error message at compile time:
"constructor Page in class Page cannot be applied to given types;
{//Constructor
^
required: String
found: no arguments
reason: actual and formal argument lists differ in length".
Here's the code(first my class, then the class I extended)
public class SearchEngine extends Page {
public static Color customGreen = new Color(69, 194, 33);
public static Color customYellow = new Color(232, 166, 12);
public static Color customBlue = new Color(25,97,255);
public static Color customYellowComp = new Color(178,125,0);

When creating a class with a constructor, why does one have to create private variables (attributes) to be used as parameters by the object? The object's parameters will be set to be exactly equal to the private variables (attributes), so what is the point of having the private variables (attributes) Why are both private variables (attributes) and parameters needed when they are set to be equal each other anyway?

I have an Abstract Class called GameColorEffect which contains a number of non-static Inner Classes that extend their Parent Class, GameColorEffect. I want to be able to create instances of the Inner Classes, however my IDE, eclipse, prompts me with the error:
No enclosing instance of type GameColorEffect is accessible. Must qualify the allocation with an enclosing instance of type GameColorEffect
And eclipse shows me a possible solution which is to turn the Inner Classes to static, this would allow me to create instances, but not really. This is because using methods from the static Inner Classes that change values in the Inner Classes will do this for every instance of the same Inner Class which is literally like a single instance. However, I want these Inner Classes to be individual with their values and still be able to use them outside as instances. I've found out a possible solution, which I'm not sure works like I want it to:
Java Code : GameColorEffect = new GameColorEffect.ExampleEffect(); mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
However, this is in-compact because sometimes all I need is to use just a method like:
Java Code : new GameColorEffect.ExampleEffect(intensity).applyEffect() mh_sh_highlight_all('java');
And another solution that I already knew prior was that I could make the Inner Classes proper classes not inside of the GameColorEffect class, but this is also in-compact because I will have to have so many classes for the so many effects that I have.

How do you test a default constructor in one class and then test it in a different class? This is the code for the Person class which has the default constructor. I'm not sure in the PersonTester class how to access this default constructor and how to test it - what I have so far for the second class is also below.
class Person {
// Data Members
private String name; // The name of this person
private int age; // The age of this person
private char gender; // The gender of this person

It is important to note that the inference algorithm uses only invocation arguments, target types, and possibly an obvious expected return type to infer types. The inference algorithm does not use results from later in the program.

The one problem in my book was to create a constructor for different shirt features, which I did and ran successfully. Out of curiosity, I also added other methods to see if it would run if the parameters were different from the constructor. It keeps giving me a constructor error. So, my question is, am I able to create a class that uses a constructor with parameters and other methods without errors? I'm guessing there's no reason to since it would be wasted space since the constructor could do it but was just curious if it's possible.
Is everything from the constructor down (in the class) and Shirt.oneShirt (in the main) just a waste of time?
Here's my example:
public class Shirt//class name.
{
int collarSize;//data field.
int sleeveLength;//data field.
int pocketNumber;//data field
public final static String MATERIAL = "cotton";//final data field for material.
public Shirt(int collarSize, int sleeveLength, int pocketNumber)//start of constructor.
{

I have a class of Date with a constructor with 3 parameters in it. Those 3 parameters are int data type just to enter month, year, day.
I have another class called Author which has a constructor of Date diedDate; as a parameter passing to the Author constructor.
I was asked to call the Date parameter is null, call the default constructor but I thought for the Date parameter I could only enter something like 0,0,0 instead of typing in null, null, null because null is for String data type isn't it?
