Why ACM Isn't Letting To Create Object From Different Class
Apr 16, 2014
I'm curious why ACM isn't letting me create an object from a different class, maybe I am missing something?
my main class:
import java.awt.Color;
import acm.program.*;
import acm.graphics.*;
public class MyClass extends GraphicsProgram {
private static final int WINDOW_W = 500;
private static final int WINDOW_H = 500;
[code]....
I have also noticed when trying to extend 'ConsoleProgram' it does the same thing with line printing (except when using system.out).
How to create object for "class B" and call the "function_B" from other different class D where class D has no connection with class A? Here is my program.
public class A(){ void print(){} } class B{ void function_B(){} } class C{ void function_C(){} }
Here, A, B, C are in the same package. But class D is in different package.
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);
I know that System is a final class and it cannot be instantiated, out is a static final variable of type PrintStream in System class and println is a method in PrintStream class.Still I don't understand why we use System.out to call println() method.To my knowledge a method can be called using an object reference, in case of static behaviors we use classname. Then why here we are using System.out.println? Can't we just create an object of PrintStream class and call the println() method as PrintStream class can be instantiated.Are there any ways of calling a method apart from those I know(I have mentioned above what I know)?
I've been writing classes over and over for school. So I create a class outside of my main class. I create a new constructor and then create objects from my main class. I hope that makes sense. So i use methods in that class to work with the object. So I have an object name I've created <dot> method name. So I can create objects and then use methods from the class, but I'm wondering can I create a method in my main class and use it on that object? I don't understand how to do that.
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?
Task:The main method of the class Things below creates an object called printer deriving from the class PrintingClass and uses that object to print text. Your task is to write the PrintingClass class.
Program to complete: import java.util.Scanner; public class Things { public static void main(String args[]) { String characterString; Scanner reader = new Scanner(System.in); PrintingClass printer = new PrintingClass(); System.out.print("Type in the character string for printing: "); characterString = reader.nextLine(); printer.Print(characterString); } }
// Write the missing class here
Note: In this exercise the solution is part of a conversion unit where many classes have been declared. Because of this the classes are not declared as public using the public attribute.
Example output
Type in the character string for printing: John Doe
John Doe
My Class: class PrintingClass { public void print(){ System.out.println(characterString); } }
Assuming that we have two classes B and C which inherit from class A. What is the best way to pass a parameter from an object of class B to an object of class C by the use of class A without using static variable and without defining a get function in B?
In the class below I'm trying to create a class that will accept dates in various formats and create a range. The first constructor is easy because I send it the begin date and end date as Date objects. Now I want to send a month(and year) in a constructor and derive the begin and end dates from it. In my constructor that accepts the month/year I need to put the this(startDate, endDate) at the top to be allowed, but the parameters are not built yet.
package com.scg.athrowaway; import java.util.Calendar; import java.util.Date; public class DateRange { private Date startDate; private Date endDate;
"You might wonder what happens when a static synchronized method is invoked, since a static method is associated with a class, not an object. In this case, the thread acquires the intrinsic lock for the Class object associated with the class. "What is a Class object associated with a class. Google search rather finds material about the Object class.
I want to know is there any way we can call parent class method using child class object without using super keyword in class B in the following program like we can do in c++ by using scoop resolution operator
class A{ public void hello(){ System.out.println("hello"); } } class B extends A{ public void hello(){ //super.hello(); System.out.println("hello1");
I am a beginner here at JAVA and I am trying to program a Gratuity Calculator using both interface class and object class but it keeps on compiling with errors saying "cannot find symbol".I tried everything to fix it but it just keeps on stating symbol.
[CODE] public class GratuityCalculator extends JFrame { /* declarations */
// color objects Color black = new Color(0, 0, 0); Color white = new Color(255, 255, 255); Color light_gray = new Color(192, 192, 192);
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.
The assignment is to create a SmartString class that implements a SmartStringInterface class (created by professor) and implements a few methods. We are basically taking a string and then taking various substrings and inserting, deleting them and undoing changes as well. Here are the methods in the interface to use along with the parameters.
public interface SmartStringInterface { public void insert(int pos, String sstring); public void delete(int pos, int count); public void undo(); public String toString();
The Undo is supposed to be able to be called multiple times (to be tested using a driver program that we must create) but the part that's got me is that the changes are only supposed to be stored. Currently, I am storing the "new" string after each change onto a stack, so that undo can just pop off the stack and it will revert to the previous string. Professor said that was wrong, so I don't know how to do it. Here is what I have so far (some of the code we have is using default StackADT stuff from our book, so if you need that I can post as well. You can see in the undo method where I currently save the string. We can use multiple stacks if needed, but the less the better. Must use at least 1. The exception code is already coded for us in another file also. I am only having to code these methods and the driver to test.
import java.util.Arrays; public class ArrayStack<T> implements StackADT<T> private final static int DEFAULT_CAPACITY = 100 private int top; private T[] stack;
how objects relate to classes and how you can create and re-use object types.on that point, but this has me baffled. I most certainly do not have a firm grasp yet on passing things to and from methods that just makes my head hurt. SO anyway I tried out one of the code examples:
/* ElectricGuitar.java */ class ElectricGuitar { String brand; int numOfPickups; boolean rockStarUsesIt;
[code]...
But I just realized this thing has no main method and only one class defined.....so I guess I just tried to compile.
//Scanner Test String stream2 = "ab34ef 56"; // create a new scanner with the specified String Object Scanner scanner = new Scanner(stream1); // find a string "World"
[Code] ....
Matched expression found by findInLine: 34
ef56
is new line? right?
The java.util.Scanner.nextLine() method advances this scanner past the current line and returns the input that was skipped. This method returns the rest of the current line, excluding any line separator at the end.
then 56 is in new line and it must return ef.What is the problem?
(Using an Existing Class: Creating Objects and Calling Accessor and Mutator Methods)
I. The Assignment
This assignment is to write a "test" class (aka: a "driver" class or "client code") that uses the class Balloon.java, available on the class web page.
To use the Balloon class, download it and store it in the src folder of your NetBeans project. Make sure you save it as Balloon.java.
The best way to learn how to use the Balloon class or any other Java class, for that matter - is to consult the documentation, Balloon.html (online). You can also read the javadoc comments that appear just above the class declaration and above each method declaration, which explain what each method does, what the method's parameters are, and what value if any - is returned by the method. The html support pages are generated from these comments.
-Review declaring variables, creating objects, calling methods that return a value vs. void methods, and accessor and mutator methods before beginning. To receive credit for this assignment, you must not modify the Balloon class in any way!
II. Your BalloonTester Class
Your BalloonTester class will have only a single method "main" and will perform each of the following operations, in the exact order listed below. Each operation may be done in one or two statements. Make sure you follow directions faithfully, and note that once you have done step 3, you can copy and paste it to do steps 6, 9, and 12.
1.Create a Balloon object with a name of your own choosing and an altitude of 100 meters.
2.Create a second Balloon object with a name of your own choosing, and specify an initial altitude of -100 meters.
3.Call the accessor methods of the Balloon class to get the name and altitude of each Balloon object. Print the data, one object per line.
4.Make the object you created in step 1 ascend to an altitude of 250 meters.
5.Call the adjustAltitude method to increase the altitude of the object you created in step 2 by 150 meters.
6.Call the accessor methods of the Balloon class to get the name and altitude of each object. Print the data, one object per line.
7.Call the adjustAltitude method to decrease the altitude of the object you created in step 1 by 150 meters.
8.Make the object you created in step 2 descend to the same altitude as the other object. You may assume that the other object is at a lower altitude.
To get credit for step 8., the statement(s) you write must always work, regardless of the actual altitude of the second object. It cannot depend on you knowing the altitude of the second object, but must utilize the fact that the object knows its own altitude. In other words, if you use a literal in any way to set the altitude, it is not correct.
9.Call the accessor methods to get the name and altitude of each object. Print the data, one object per line.
10.Move the object you created in step 1 to an altitude that is four times its current altitude. As in step 8, the statement(s) you write must work for any altitude and may not depend on you figuring out the new altitude beforehand.
11.Attempt to move the object you created in step 2 to an altitude that is 150 meters below its current altitude.
12.Call the accessor methods to get the name and altitude of each object. Print the data, one object per line.
and this is the Balloon.java given:
// File: Balloon2.java // Modified Balloon class has overloaded constructors
/** * A class to represent a hot-air balloon. Balloon objects have a name and an altitude. */ public class Balloon2 { // instance variables private String name ; // name of the balloon private int altitude; // altitude (height) of balloon in meters
I can't figure out where to create the StringHandler object. My code should take a string as input, then create StringHandler object ord with the string input. This should repeat until cancel is pressed, then ord should be sent to the Utskrift-method (a print method).
If I do like this, null is also sent to Utskrift. I dont want that to happen. If I put StringHandler last in the loop ord can not be resolved.
String text = ""; while (text != null){ text = showInputDialog(null, "Enter text:"); StringHandler ord = new StringHandler(text); if (text == null){ [Utskrift(ord.getNumber(), ord.getString(), ord.getWords()); break; } }
Write a program that prompts the user for information about some countries, creates an object for each country, and then stores the objects in an array. After the user has entered information about all the countries, your program should print out which countries in the list have the smallest and largest area and population density. Assume the user will enter information about at least one country but that the program will not have to store more than ten countries in the array. The user will indicate that they are done entering countries by typing "DONE" for a country name. Here is an example of what your program must look like when it is executed (user input is shown bold)
Please enter the name of a country: United States Enter the area in square km and population of United States: 9827000 310000000 Please enter the name of a country: Mexico Enter the area in square km and population of Mexico: 1973000 122300000 Please enter the name of a country: Canada Enter the area in square km and population of Canada: 9985000 35160000 Please enter the name of a country: Liberia Enter the area in square km and population of Liberia: 111370 4294000 Please enter the name of a country: DONE
Liberia has the smallest area at 111370 square km. Canada has the largest area at 9985000 square km. Canada has the smallest population density at 3.521282 people per square km. Mexico has the largest population density at 61.986822 people per square km.
I don't know, I'm really confused with this Java program. I don't know how to do the main part of the program where the user inputs, array, and the output.
// Access the Scanner and ArrayList class by importing the java.util package. import java.util.Scanner;
/** Project - A Country Object * The purpose of this program is for the user to enter some information at most 10 countries. After the user has entered information about all the countries, the program should print out which countries in the list have the smallest and largest area and population density. */
public class Country { private String countryName; private int theArea; private int thePopulation; public Country(String countryName, int thePopulation, int theArea)
