  • Labs are optional this week 2005-03-21

    The Friday labs are cancelled this week, because of Good Friday. The labs will be held as usual on Tuesday 9-11am and Thursday 11am-1pm. Those students who usually attend Friday labs are welcome to attend either the Tuesday or Thursday lab.

    The labs are optional this week, so all students will get 1/1 for the lab whether you attend the lab or not. This lab is great practice with 2D-arrays, so it would be a good idea to try to attend.

  • Midterm solution posted 2005-03-07

    The sample midterm solution is posted on the Tests page.

    Good luck!

  • A2 - Add getInventory() to BookStore 2005-03-06

    You must add the method getInventory() to the
    BookStore class. This method will make it easier for
    you to test your other methods for this class.

    Since this is a new requirement, I have provided the code for you:
    Assuming you have some instance variable for the inventory of books on hand:
    private String bookInventory;
    The method is as follows:
    /**
    * Returns the inventory of the books on hand at the
    * BookStore.
    * @return the inventory of the books on hand as a String
    */
    public Sring getInventory() {
    return bookInventory; // or whatever you named this instance variable.
    }

  • A2 due date extended
    to Thursday, March 10
    2005-03-05

    The submission deadline is extended to Thursday, March 10 at 9:00 a.m. (sharp). This will give you time to create a more thorough set of test cases and to ensure that your code meets the checkstyle standard. The time is given due to the length of the assignment - it is recommended that you take advantage of every minute that you get.
