Wallet Java Lab
Problem specification
Your new Wallet class implements a wallet that contains banknotes. A banknote is representedasanintforsimplicity,1fora$1bill,5fora$5bill,andsoon. Youare required to use just a simple array of int to hold the banknotes. You may NOT use an array list.
Here are some example wallets printed out:
Wallet[5, 50, 10, 5]
Wallet[]
Wallet[1, 5, 10, 50, 5]
Here's the outline of the Wallet class. You will implement each method as described below.
public class Wallet
{
// max possible # of banknotes in a wallet
private static final int MAX = 10;
private int contents[];
private int count; // number of banknotes stored in contents[]
public Wallet()
{
// your code goes here
}
public Wallet(int a[])
{
// your code goes here
}
public String toString()
{
// your code goes here
}
public int value()
{
// your code goes here
}
public void reverse()
{
// your code goes here
}
public void add(int banknote)
{
// your code goes here
}
public void transfer(Wallet donor)
{
// your code goes here
}
public void sort()
{
// your code goes here
}
public boolean remove(int banknote)
{
// your code goes here
}
public boolean sameBanknotesSameOrder(Wallet other)
{
// your code goes here
}
//EXTRA CREDIT methods follow...
public Wallet removeBanknotePairs(Wallet w)
{
// your code goes here
} }
Instance variables
Use exactly and only these instance variables:
Wallet uses the contents[] array to store ints representing banknotes. count holds the number of banknotes in contents[], so must be updated every time a banknote is added or removed.
count is 0 when a wallet is empty. MAX is the maximum number of banknotes a wallet can hold, so count is MAX - 1 when a wallet is full. count will always be the index where the next banknote is to be added.
Banknotes in a wallet are maintained in the order of arrival. A new banknote is simply added to the end of contents[] and count is incremented by 1.
When a banknote is removed from a wallet, the first occurrence of the value is removed fromcontents[]andcountisdecrementedby1. Importantly,allbanknotesabovethe removed value must be moved 'down' so that no 'holes' open in the array. For example, if wallet w is Wallet[1, 5, 10, 50, 5]:
- then after w.remove(5), w will be Wallet[1, 10, 50, 5]:
Methods
You will complete the method bodies as follows:
public Wallet()
initialize the wallet to empty
? allocate memory for the contents[] array
? initialize count
public Wallet(int a[])
initialize the wallet using the array of int named a[] an overloaded constructor
? allocate memory for the contents[] array
? initialize contents[] from a[]
? initialize count
public String toString()
return a textual representation of the wallet, in the standard format. For example:
Wallet[5, 50, 10, 5]
? use a StringBuffer to build the returned value
? convert the StringBuffer to a String and return the String
public int value()
calculate the value of the banknotes in the wallet. For example, if wallet is: Wallet[5, 50, 10, 5], value is 70
? must use count to do this, to traverse ONLY the banknotes in the wallet
? (cannot use contents.length since this traverses every element in the array
including elements that may not have been explicitly initialized, which is dangerous)
? return this number of dollars
public void reverse()
reverse the order of banknotes in a wallet e.g.
Wallet[1, 5, 10, 50, 5] when reversed becomes Wallet[5, 50, 10, 5, 1]
(IMPORTANT NOTE: do not create a new Wallet object!)
? suggested algorithm:
start an index pointing at the first banknote in contents[]
start another index pointing at the last of the banknotes in contents[] while these indexes do not meet or cross over
swap values at the indexes (use a temp variable to do this) move two indexes towards one another
public void add(int banknote)
add banknote to the wallet
? banknoteisthebanknotetoadde.g.50,5,etc
? add banknote to the end of contents[] and update count
public void transfer(Wallet donor)
transfer the contents of one wallet (the donor wallet) to the end of another, the receiver. (The receiver will be the Wallet object calling the method (i.e. the invoking object)). Leavethedonorwalletempty. Forexample:
if the receiver is Wallet[5, 10, 50, 50]
and donor is Wallet[5, 5, 10, 1, 50, 5]
then after the transfer:
receiver will be Wallet[5, 10, 50, 50, 5, 5, 10, 1, 50, 5] and donor will be Wallet[]
? should call the add() method as you implement this
? to set a wallet to empty, simply set its count to 0
public void sort()
sort the banknotes in a wallet into ascending order e.g.
Wallet[5, 50, 10, 5, 1] when sorted becomes Wallet[1, 5, 5, 10, 50]
(IMPORTANT NOTE: do not create a new Wallet object!)
? suggested algorithm:
? we saw in Week 7 a sort method that works for an array of Integer objects containing MAX elements
? take this method and modify syntax to work for contents[] and count
public boolean remove(int banknote) removefirstoccurrenceofbanknotefromthewallet. Returntrueifbanknotewas removed, false otherwise
? (this banknote may not be in the wallet)
? if banknote is removed, must update contents[] so that no holes appear, and count
public boolean sameBanknotesSameOrder(Wallet other)
return whether two wallets have exactly the same banknotes in exactly the same order Extra credit
public Wallet removeBanknotePairs(Wallet w)
create a new wallet and add to it pairs of banknotes removed from two other wallets. Return the new wallet. For example:
if w1 is Wallet[5, 1, 50, 20, 50, 5]
and w2 is Wallet[20, 10, 5, 5, 5, 50, 10] then after the method call
Wallet w3 = w1.removeBanknotePairs(w2);
w1 will be: Wallet[1, 50]
w2 will be: Wallet[10, 5, 10]
w3 will be: Wallet[5, 5, 50, 50, 20, 20, 5, 5]

Extra credit
When you have completed all other methods, implement and test removeBanknotePairs() for 20% extra credit. You must test your method using the w1 and w2 wallets given above in the description of removeBanknotePairs().
