ASSIGNMENT $2$

Assignment $2$ tests your knowledge of Decisions Structures $($Chapter $4),$ repetition structures$/$Loops $($Chapter $5)$ and Classes and

Objects in Java $($Chapter $6)$ and should be solved using concepts learned in class so far $($Chapters $1$ to $6)$ and requirements bellow.

$1.$ Design a class called YourNameMonth, replace YourName with your actual name$)$ with the $($exact$)$ fields and methods$1$

:

Field$/$Method Description

Number An integral field that holds the number of the month which is a value between $1$ and $12$ where

Number $123456789101112$

Corresponding

Name

January February March April May June July August September October November December

YourNameMonth A no$-$argument constructor that sets the Number field to $1$

YourNameMonth A constructor with one integral parameter representing the number of the month $(1,2,$ etc.$)$ and sets the Number

field to that value. If a value less than $1$ or larger that $12$ is passed, the constructor should set Number to $1$

YourNameMonth A constructor with one string parameter representing the name of the month $($January$,$February$,$ etc.$)$ that sets

the Number field to the corresponding number. If the value is invalid $($less than $1$ or larger than $12),$ should set

Number to $1.$ You should NOT add another field for the name of the month.

YourNameMonth A copy constructor that copies the Number field value from another month object.

getNumber An integral method that returns the Number field value

setNumber A void method with an integral parameter that sets the Number field to that integral number

getName A String method that returns the name of the month corresponding to the Number field value

toString A string method that returns a string with this format: $$Month is NUMBER$$ where NUMBER is the field Number

equals A Boolean method that accepts a YourNameMonth object Month$2$ as an argument and returns true if the data from

that object $($its Number$)$ is the same as the Number field of Month$2$ or false otherwise.

compareTo An integral method that accepts a Month object Month$2$as an argument and returns $0$ if Number value from the class

is the same as the number from the Month$2$ object, $-1$ if it is smaller, and $1$ if it is larger.

$2.$ Design a driver class called YourNameAssignment$2($replace YourName with your actual name$)$ in the same project as the

YourNameMonth. You will need to add the class Month to the project and add your code to the project class main method. The

program $($code$)$ should:

$$ Create three objects: Month$1$ using the first no$-$arg constructor, Month$2$ using the second constructor with $2$ as an argument,

Month$3$ using the third constructor with $$October$$ as an argument, and Month$4$ using the fourth$/$copy constructor from Month$3.$

$$ Use the getNumber to get the month number from objects Month$1,$ Month$2,$ Month$3,$ and Month$4$ and output the them.

$$ Use the getName to get the month name from objects Month$1,$ Month$2,$ Month$3,$ and Month$4$ and output them.

$$ Use the setNumber to set the Month$1$ object value to $10.$

$$ Use the toString to get the month string from objects Month$1,$ Month$2,$ Month$3,$ and Month$4$ and output them.

$$ Use the equals method of Month$1$ to compare its value with Month$2$ value and output the result.

$$ Use the compareTo method of Month$3$ to compare its value with Month$4$ value and output the result.

$3.$ Implement the classes in NetBeans IDE and JAVA: Create a JAVA project called YourNameAssignment$2($same name as the driver

class$),$ add the class YourNameMonth to the YourNameAssignment$2$ project and add your code to the YourNameMonth class and

YourNameAssignmen$2$ project$/$driver class main method. Your program should be user$-$friendly and be welldocumented$/$commented $($have comments for every line of code$).$

$4.$ Create the screenshot document for your code and output: Create a Microsoft Word document from the YourNameAssignmentN.docx template and call it YourName$-$Assignment$2.$docx $($replace YourName with your actual name$)$ with your

screenshots of the NetBeans editor window showing the complete JAVA source code for both YourNameAssignment$2($Class $1)$ and

YourNamePet $($Driver Class$)$ classes and the complete output. If the entire class JAVA source code or the output does not fit in one

screenshot or the screenshots cannot be easily read, create multiple screenshots and add multiple screenshots to the screenshot

document. If your output is longer than a line and does not fit on one screen, Wrap Text in your output panel.

$5.$ Submit your work: Submit YourName$-$Assignment$2.$docx on eCampus under the Assignment $2.$ Do not submit other types$/$formats

of files $($e$.$g$.$ no CLASS, PDF$,$ JAVA, ZIP, RAR, etc.$).$ Please take time after submitting to review the file and check it is correct and resubmit

it if there are any errors.

$1$

You are going to lose points for not documenting your code $($commenting each line of code$),$ for not naming the programs and files as requested,

not submitting the correct files, cheating, hardcoding the results, and using concepts we did not learn in class
