Journal #

My Saturday is like this: I wake up around 10 or 11am at the earliest, usually because my parents or just my dad will wake me up to go do something. I’m get mad, because I hate waking up early because the whole week I barely get my full 8 hours of sleep. I never sleep early Friday nights, there for I usually sleep until noon on Saturdays. This is also because I get all the sleep back from the week before. My parents and I go to the market and buy groceries or go mall to go shopping. Then, by the afternoon we are all cooking for dinner while watching TV. We find lots of things to do. Sometimes, we clean or just stay at home. Sometimes, my mother goes to work at the second job. If so, my dad and I just stay home. My dad is so annoying, he makes me do a lot of things. I, of course, don’t want to do anything because its my rest day. But I do so anyways, just to be not lazy. This is when I have nothing scheduled that day, if I do I usually just go there. I’m usually chilling at my friend’s house or we are all watching a movie. This Saturday, I actually have something for Key Club at Santa Clarita. I don’t know if I want to go though, because it is so far and it’s only for Fall Rally. Fall Rally is this Key Club convention at Six Flags, it’s really fun. I always go, we basically just cheer for our division. This Saturday, they want to all meet up to practice what we are going to do during the convention. My Saturdays are pretty boring, but I love them. Saturday is my resting day. No homework, well even if I do have homework I don’t do it on Saturdays. This is a rule I’ve made for myself. On Sunday is when I begin doing my homework.

Sec 2.1  Write an application program that creates a Vic object and then moves a CD out of its first slot into its second and also out of its fourth slot into its third.  Use reset to be sure you have enough slots.

Sec 2.2  Write an application program that uses a SmartVic object, augmented by movePut and backTake as described in the exercises, to move the CDs in the second, third, and fourth slots into the fourth, second, and third slots respectively, with minimal effort.

Sec 2.3a  Write an application program that shifts any CDs that are in the first two slots of the first two sequences to the respective stacks.

Sec 2.3b  Write an application program that removes the fifth and seventh CD from each of the first three sequences. 

Sec 2.6a  Write an instance method named seesTwoDifferent for a subclass of Vic:  The executor tells whether its current slot and the next slot exist and exactly one has a CD.  Leave the executor in its original state.

Sec 2.8b  Write an instance method public void giveCD(Vic par) for a subclass of Vic:  The executor gives the CD in its current slot to the Vic parameter who puts it into its slot (no effect if the executor is not at a filled slot or the parameter is not at an empty slot).

Sec 2.8c**  Write an instance method public void backSwap() for a subclass of Vic:  The executor swaps the CD in the current slot with the one in the slot before it.  But if there is no CD in the current slot or the one before, the method is to have no effect.  Precondition:  Both slots exist.

Listing 2.4  Write an application program whose main method creates a Vic object and then, if it has a CD in its second slot, takes that CD out and puts it in the fourth slot if possible.

Exercise 2.15  Write a method public void swapTwo() for a subclass of Vic:  The executor swaps the CD in the current slot with the CD in the following slot, except that it moves no CD at all if either CD is missing.  Leave the executor at its original position.

Exercise 2.22  Write a method public void shiftForward() for a subclass of Vic:  The executor moves the CD from the next slot into the current slot, but only if the current slot is empty and the next slot exists and is not empty.  In either case, the executor is at the next slot after the method finishes executing.

Listing 2.8  Write a query method public boolean seesTwoEmpty() for a subclass of Vic:  The executor tells whether its current slot and the next slot both exist and are empty.  Leave the executor unchanged.  Do not use a boolean variable.

Listing 2.9  Write a query method public boolean hasTwoOnStack() for a subclass of Vic:  The executor tells whether it has at least two CDs on its stack.  Leave the executor unchanged.  Use a boolean variable appropriately.  Precondition:  The current slot exists and is empty.
