Thursday's Lab

Research a data structure that has not been presented in class. It can be one that is part of the java libraries, one that you create, or one from another source. Describe its interface, how it is generally used, in which situations it would work well, the types of data it can store, and its general advantages and disadvantages when compared with other data structures. Also describe how to integrate it into a program. Then, create a small program that utilizes the data structure. Next Tuesday, you will present all of these things in a short presentation to the class. Then be prepared to discuss the data structures and identify which data structures could be plugged in for different scenarios.

Missing java files for homework 3?

Wondering if there was any progress made on finding the linked list code for homework 3? I haven't been able to find it, like others, in the author's files.

Homework 3 Submission

Please note, it currently states that a hardcopy is required for submission of homework 3, but an electronic copy is sufficient and preferred.

Homework Phase 3...

I'm not sure if I'm speaking for anybody else in class, but is there any way that we could have the homework due on Thursday, by class start, rather than today?

Code Reviews

Don't forget to bring a hardcopy of your code from HW1 to class today.

Question regarding Phase 2

We should probably have the same class name for our skeleton class, correct? This would be so that we could create an object of that class in our test class to be able to use the methods of the skeleton class no matter whose test class we were using.

I guess that was more than just a question.

HW1

How in depth do we need to get with this? Do we need to have a working program where the user searches for an item, and the sellers are searched to see if the item is available, and then be able to make the transaction happen, or do we just need to have a program that works with the test program you provided???

addItem method

It seems, based on the homework sheet, that there needs to be an "addItem" method but no "removeItem"? Is this correct? I know I said that I didn't explicitly see anything about an "addItem" method, but it was stated that the user can only buy items and the seller can have up to 10 items in his store.

HW1 Test File

http://cs.winona.edu/faculty/nanderson/341-s10/HW1Test.txt

The file will need to be renamed with a .java extension. Please post here if any issues are found with the file.

MSDNAA

There are two ways to get a hold of MSDNAA software. One is to login here: http://msdn06.e-academy.com/elms/Storefront/Home.aspx?campus=wsu_csc. The most software (including Visio, Microsoft Access, etc) is available this way. At the beginning of the semester, you should have been emailed your login info. If you can't find this, enter your email address and click on the password reminder link to get it sent again.

However, the easier method is to grab the software you need out of the folders provided by the CS department. This only works on campus or using a VPN to campus at home. The path is then: \\csci\msdnaa$. However, only selected software is available here. You might want to check here first, then go to the master source if what you are looking for isn't available.
