PROGRAMMING ASSIGNMENT 7
Sorted List of Integers
This program focuses on implementing two collections and achieving code reuse through
inheritance.
First implement ArrayIntList, then implement SortedIntList as a variation of the
ArrayIntList. Use inheritance to make SortedIntList extend from ArrayIntList,
adding new functionality and modifying some existing functionality.
The SortedIntList has two primary differences from the ArrayIntList:
● A SortedIntList must maintain its list of integers in sorted (increasing) order.
● A SortedIntList has an option to specify that its elements should be unique (no
duplicates).
First, write the following constructors and methods on ArrayIntList:
public ArrayIntList() constructs an empty list of a default capacity (10)
public ArrayIntList(int capacity) constructs an empty list with given capacity
public void add(int value) appends given value to end of list
public void add(int index, int
value)
inserts given value at given index, shifting subsequent values
right
public int get(int index) returns the element at the given index
public int indexOf(int value) returns index of first occurrence of given value (< 0 if not
found)
public void remove(int index) removes value at given index, shifting subsequent values left
public int size() returns current number of elements in the list
public String toString() returns a string version of the list, such as "[4, 5, 17]"
public void clear() removes all elements from this list.
public boolean contains(int value) returns true if the given value is contained in this list, else
false.
public void ensureCapacity(int
capacity)
makes sure that this list's internal array is large enough to
store at least the given number of elements. Postcondition:
elementData.length >= capacity
public boolean isEmpty() returns true if this list does not contain any elements, else
false.
private void checkIndex(int index,
int min, int max)
throws an array index out-of-bounds exception if index is
not between min and max inclusive
The class SortedIntList should extend ArrayIntList, adding a few new
methods/constructors, and overriding some existing methods to modify/improve their functionality.
Write the following constructors and methods on SortedIntList
public SortedIntList() constructs an empty list of a default capacity, allowing
duplicates
public SortedIntList(boolean
unique)
constructs empty list of default capacity and given "unique"
setting
public SortedIntList(int
capacity)
constructs an empty list with given capacity, allowing
duplicates
public SortedIntList(
 boolean unique, int capacity) constructs an empty list with given capacity and "unique"
setting
public void add(int value) possibly adds given value to list, maintaining sorted order
public void add(int index, int
value)
always throws an UnsupportedOperationException
public boolean getUnique() returns whether only unique values are allowed in the list
public int indexOf(int value) same behavior as before, but optimized; see next page
public int max() returns the maximum integer value stored in the list
(throws a NoSuchElementException if the list is
empty)
public int min() returns the minimum integer value stored in the list
(throws a NoSuchElementException if the list is
empty)
public void setUnique(boolean
unique)
sets whether only unique values are allowed in the list; if set
to true, immediately removes any existing duplicates from
the list
public String toString() returns a string version of the list, such as "S:[4, 5,
17]U"
The SortedIntList class will have a field to keep track of whether or not it is limited to unique
values. The value can be set to your second constructor or by calling setUnique. Think of it as
an on/off switch that each list has.
You will override the add method to ensure that elements are added in sorted order, and you will
override the indexOf method to be more efficient by taking advantage of the list's sorted order.
You will also override toString. All other methods inherited from ArrayIntList should use
the default inherited behavior and should not be overridden.
Implementation Details:
public SortedIntList()
This constructor should initialize a list of default capacity (10) with uniqueness set to false
(duplicates allowed).
public SortedIntList(boolean unique)
This constructor should initialize a list of default capacity (10) with uniqueness set to the given
value.
public SortedIntList(int capacity)
This constructor should initialize a list with the given capacity and with uniqueness set to false
(duplicates allowed). If the capacity is negative, an IllegalArgumentException should occur.
ArrayIntList's constructor does so as well.
public SortedIntList(boolean unique, int capacity)
This constructor should initialize a list with the given capacity and with the given setting for
whether or not to limit the list to unique values (true means no duplicates, false means duplicates
are allowed). See get/setUnique below. If the capacity is negative, an
IllegalArgumentException should occur. ArrayIntList's constructor does so as well.
public void add(int value)
Your single-argument add method should be overridden to ensure a sorted list. You should no
longer add at the end of the list; instead you should add the value at an appropriate place to keep
the list in sorted order. For example, if the list is [-3, 7, 18, 42] and the user adds 27, afterward
the list should contain [-3, 7, 18, 27, 42] in that order. (See indexOf.)
The add method has to pay attention to whether the client has requested unique values only. If
so, your method must not allow any element to be added if that value is already in the list. You
should not re-sort the entire list every time an element is added. Finding the correct index and
inserting the element there is more efficient than re-sorting the whole list.
public void add(int index, int value)
For a sorted list, it does not make sense to allow the client to insert an element at any particular
index. The elements should be ordered so that the list will remain sorted. Therefore, you do not
want this method in your SortedIntList class; but you must inherit such a method because you
extend ArrayIntList. The best we can do is to "disable" this method by overriding it to always
throw an UnsupportedOperationException. The list should not be modified
public boolean getUnique()
This method should return the current uniqueness setting (true means no duplicates, false means
duplicates allowed).
public void setUnique(boolean value)
Allows client to set whether to allow duplicates in the list (true means no duplicates, false means
duplicates allowed).
If the unique switch is set to off (false), the list allows any integer to be added, even if that integer
is already found in the list (a duplicate). If the unique switch is on (true), any call to add that
passes a value already in the list has no effect. In other words, when the unique switch is true,
the add method should not allow any duplicates to be added to the list. For example, if you start
with an empty list that has the unique switch off, adding three 42s will generate the list [42, 42,
42]. But if your list has the unique switch on, adding those same three 42s would generate the
single-element list [42].
If the client sets unique to true when the list has duplicates, setUnique should remove all
duplicates and ensure that no future duplicates can be added unless the client sets unique back to
false. If the client changes the unique setting to false, the list elements do not immediately
change, but it will mean that duplicates could be added in the future.
public int max()
public int min()
These methods should return the largest and smallest element values contained in the list,
respectively. For example, in the list [4, 4, 17, 39, 58], the max is 58 and the min is 4. If the list is
empty, it has no largest or smallest element, so you should throw a NoSuchElementException.
public String toString()
This method should return a comma-separated string of the list's elements, preceded by "S:". If
the list's "unique" switch is on, the string should end with "U". For example, if the elements are
[4, 4, 17, 39, 58] and unique is off, return
"S:[4, 4, 17, 39, 58]". If the elements are [-3, 5, 15] and unique is on, return "S:[-3, 5,
15]U". Note the U.
public int indexOf(int value)
This method should be overridden to take advantage of the fact that the list is sorted. It should use
the faster binary search algorithm rather than the sequential search used in ArrayIntList. If
the element is found in the list, your indexOf should return its position. The element might occur
in the list multiple times; if so, you may return any index at which that element value appears. If
the element is not found in the list, your method should return a negative number.
We will discuss how binary search is implemented, but you should not try to implement binary
search yourself. Use the built-in Arrays.binarySearch method for all index location searching
("Where is a value currently located?" "Where should I insert a new value?"). You can find its
documentation in the Java API. For example, to search indexes 0-16 of an array called data for
values 42 and 66, you could write:
// index 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
15 16 17 18
int[] data = {-4, 2, 7, 10, 15, 20, 22, 25, 30, 36, 42, 50, 56, 68, 85,
92, 103, 0, 0};
int index1 = Arrays.binarySearch(data, 0, 17, 42); // index1 is 10
int index2 = Arrays.binarySearch(data, 0, 17, 66); // index2 is -14
When Arrays.binarySearch is unable to find a value in the list, it returns a negative number
one less than the index at which the value would have been found if it had been in the array
(sometimes called the "insertion point"). For example, in the example above the value 66 is not
found, but if it had been in the list, it would have been at index 13; therefore the search returns -14.
You should take advantage of this information when adding new elements to your list.
To get access to the Arrays class, you should import java.util.*; at the beginning of your
class.
Testing Program (SortedIntListTest.java):
Turn the following files:
● ArrayIntList.java,
● SortedIntList.java,
● ArrayIntListTest.java, and
● SortedIntListTest.java.
You are required to write a JUnit test for each method of ArrayIntList, in a file named
ArrayIntListTest.java. We recommend that you write the unit tests before you start
using ArrayIntList in order to implement SortedIntList, to rule out bugs related to
the base class you implement the sub-class.
You are required to write JUnit tests for SortedIntList, in a file named
SortedIntListTest.java. Write several test cases for your sorted int list by creating at least
two lists, adding some elements to them, calling various methods, and checking the expected
results. For full credit, your testing file must contain at least 2 test methods, and you must call at
least 3 of the different methods on the list(s) you create.
Development Strategy:
We suggest that you develop the program in the following three stages:
● First implement your basic ArrayIntList;
● Add unit tests for ArrayIntList to ensure that it is working correctly;
● Write a first version of SortedIntList that allows duplicates and doesn't worry at all about
the issue of unique values. Just keep your list in sorted order and use binary search to speed
up searching.
● Modify your code to obtain the second version of SortedIntList that keeps track of whether
the client wants only unique values. Add any state necessary and modify constructor(s) as
needed. Next modify add so that it doesn't add duplicates if the unique setting is true.
● Write the getUnique and setUnique methods. Remember that if the client calls
setUnique and sets the value to true, you must remove any duplicates currently in the
list.
Style Guidelines and Grading:
You may not use any features from Java's collection framework on this assignment, such as
ArrayList or other pre-existing collection classes. You also may not use the Arrays.sort
method to sort your list, or Arrays.toString to display your list
A major focus of our style grading is redundancy. As much as possible you should avoid
redundancy and repeated logic within your code. Note that even constructors can be redundant; if
two or more constructors in your class (or the superclass) contain similar or identical code, you
should find a way to reduce this redundancy by making them call each other as appropriate. Any
additional methods you add to SortedIntList beyond those specified should be private so
that outside code cannot call them.
Another way you should avoid redundancy is by utilizing the behavior you inherit from the
ArrayIntList superclass. You should not re-implement any ArrayIntList behavior from that
is not modified in your class. Also, if part of your class's new behavior can make use of the
superclass's behavior, you should call constructors/methods from the superclass. For example, the
ArrayIntList already contains code for adding and removing elements to the list at a specific
index, so if your SortedIntList code needs to do those things, you should not re-implement that
functionality. Properly encapsulate your objects by making any data fields in your class private.
Avoid unnecessary fields; use fields to store important data of your objects but not to store
temporary values only used within a single call to one method. Fields should always be initialized
inside a constructor or method, never at declaration.
You should follow good general style guidelines such as: appropriately using control structures
like loops and if/else statements; avoiding redundancy using techniques such as methods, loops,
and if/else factoring; properly using indentation, good variable names, and proper types; and
not having any lines of code longer than 100 characters.
Submission
Your Java source code (program) should be submitted via Latte the day it is due.
For this assignment, you are required to use the Eclipse IDE. Use Eclipse (Refactor >
Rename) to name your project Lastname_FirstnamePA7 (please make sure to use
exactly this file name, including identical capitalization). Then use Eclipse’s export
procedure; otherwise, a penalty will be applied, as our automated tests will fail to
function. The exported archive file must be named Lastname_FirstnamePA7.zip
A step-by-step guideline for exporting and importing with Eclipse is provided in the
slides on the top of the Latte page of the course.
Additional Notes
Properly heading your classes – this must be at the top of each class you write:
/**
* first_name last_name
* email@brandeis.edu
* Month Date, Year
* PA#
* Explanation of the program/class
* Known Bugs: explain bugs/null pointers/etc.
*/
Java Docs
Before every one of your Classes and methods add a Java Doc comment. This is a very
easy way to quickly comment your code while keeping everything neat.
• The way to create a Java Doc is to type:
 /** + return/enter
• This should create:
 /**
 *
 */
• Depending on your method, the Java Doc may also create additional things, such as
@param, @throws, or @return. These are auto-generated, depending on if your
method has parameters, throw conditions, or returns something. You should fill out
each of those tags with information on parameter, exception, or return value. If you
want to read more on Java Docs, you can find that here, or also refer to the end of
Recitation 1 slides. Also, add line specific comments to the more complicated parts of
your code, or where you think is necessary. Remember, you should always try to write
code so that someone else can easily understand it.
