Chapter 12, Problem 8E

Repeat Exercise 12 in Chapter 7, but use an instance of ArrayList instead of an array. Make the following slight changes to the methods to reflect that an ArrayList object can grow in size:

  • Change the constructor’s parameter from the maximum degree to the desired degree.
  • The method setConstant might need to add zero-valued coefficients before ai. For example, if a0 = 3, a1 = 5, a2 = 0, a3 = 2, a4 = 0, and a5 = 0, the polynomial would be of degree 3, since the last nonzero constant is a3. The invocation setConstant (8, 15) would need to set a6 and a7 to 0 and a8 to 15.

If a method given an ArrayList as a parameter calls a second method giving it the same ArrayList, and that second method deletes one of the elements, this will: (produce a non-deterministic result? trigger an error? have an effect? have no effect?) on the first ArrayList. Java uses: (pass by reference? pass by value?) So when an object is passed to a method, what is actually passed is just : (the name of the object? a pointer to the object? the index of the object?) . Select the correct answer
For the first part of this lab, copy your working ArrayStringList code into the GenericArrayList class.(already in the code) Then, modify the class so that it can store any type someone asks for, instead of only Strings. You shouldn't have to change any of the actual logic in your class to accomplish this, only type declarations (i.e. the types of parameters, return types, etc.) Note: In doing so, you may end up needing to write something like this (where T is a generic type): T[] newData = new T[capacity]; ...and you will find this causes a compiler error. This is because Java dislikes creating new objects of a generic type. In order to get around this error, you can write the line like this instead: T[] new Data = (T[]) new Object[capacity] This creates an array of regular Objects which are then cast to the generic type. It works and it doesn't anger the Java compiler. How amazing! Once you're done, screenshot or save your code for checkin later. For the second part of the lab,…
Complete the Course class by implementing the printRoster() method, which outputs a list of all students enrolled in a course and also the total number of students in the course. Given classes: Class Course represents a course, which contains an ArrayList of Student objects as a course roster. (Type your code in here) Class Student represents a classroom student, which has three fields: first name, last name, and GPA. (Hint: toString() returns a String representation of the Student object.) Ex: If the following students and their GPA values are added to a course: Henry Cabot with 3.5 GPABrenda Stern with 2.0 GPAJane Flynn with 3.9 GPALynda Robison with 3.2 GPA then the program output is: Henry Cabot (GPA: 3.5) Brenda Stern (GPA: 2.0) Jane Flynn (GPA: 3.9) Lynda Robison (GPA: 3.2) Students: 4 course.java import java.util.ArrayList; // Class representing a studentpublic class Course {    private ArrayList<Student> roster; // Collection of Student objects     public Course() {…
