SUMMARY

We will provide you with the DF-2007 data files and information on how to process them. We will also provide TimeRange.class, TimePeriod.class, and TimeSlot.class.

Ideally, you will implement the entire first phase of the Schocr system, which omits the student lists and some reports. However, a large amount of credit will be given for a substantial but incomplete coding effort. No credit will be given for code which does not compile, or which cannot be run at all. It is your responsibility to make it easy for the graders to run the code you want credit for.

ASSIGNMENT DETAILS

You will turn in both source code and a written document. Both are due at 1:00 pm, Nov. 30. Hand in the written document at the start of lecture. The source code will be turned in through Checkmate.

The Java class with the public main() function should be called Schocr. (If you have more than one public main() function that we should run to see everything working, note this in a plain text file called ReadMe.txt which you submit through Checkmate.) To evaluate your implementation, we will log onto a computer with Java 1.6, open a command prompt window, cd to a folder containing your .java files, and enter

javac *.java
java Schocr

The written document

1. A cover page for scoring (attached to this handout).
2. An overview of what changes you made to your design during the implementation phase. Discuss changes to overall architecture, to the modularization of the system, to class or method names, and to individual class interfaces. Explain why you made the changes.
3. A discussion of the status of your coding effort. Indicate
   • What parts of the design you don't have written and cleanly compiling. (You will not receive any credit for code that does not compile.)
   • What parts of the system are working but are pretty buggy or missing major parts. Discuss what does work.
   • What parts of the design are working reasonably well. List any known bugs or omitted functionality.
   You do not need to find and write down every bug. The goal is to demonstrate that you are aware of the status of your coding effort. If "driver" programs you supply are required to run some of your code, note that in this section (and also, if appropriate, in ReadMe.txt). Note that you will receive very little or no credit for code that we cannot run and see working.
4. From your design in homework #2, select two classes that represent individual courses and collections of courses. If you have a class called Course and one called CourseList, they are probably the ones to choose; otherwise, choose the closest matches. (If you designed these classes, but you didn't get them coded and working at all, select any two other classes.) Create a revised and consistent-with-your-implementation version of the class interface specification of the two classes you selected. You can do this in either of two ways:
   1. Hand in a copy of your design for those modules from homework #2 section 7, with all changes marked in pen. Thus whatever is typed or printed is the original design, and modifications are in pen.
   2. Edit your original design for those modules from homework #2 section 7, so that both the original design and the new design are printed. Highlight (with a yellow highlighter pen or equivalent) what is changed from the original homework #2.
   The new, revised design must match the source code exactly.
5. A printout of the source code from your implementation that corresponds to the two classes you selected for the previous section. The goal is to make very clear how your design changed from homework #2 to homework #3. Don't print out and turn in code that does not correspond to the classes you selected.

• Indent nested sections of code appropriately and consistently.
• Start new statements on new lines.
• Follow Java naming standards (no underscores in names (except constants), method and variable names start with lower case letters, class names start with upper case letters).

Complete the assignment by yourself. Do not work in teams on this assignment.
