In this lab, the goal is to practice working with arrays. Work in pairs if you wish.
Write a main in Lab8.java and do the following:
int array named nums
containing [1, 2, 2, 3, 2, 5, 3, 6]. Also, introduce
an int variable named item with its
value 3.
occurs that takes two arguments
(item and nums) and returns true
if item occurs in nums and false if
not. And call occurs at least two times in main
and print the result. Be sure to choose argument values so that
there is at least one call that returns true and another
returning false. occurs must look for an element
from first index of the array to the last. All the way to the
last element if necessary. As soon as it finds item, it
should return instead of continuing to the last element of the
array.
occursCount that takes two
arguments (item and nums) and returns the number
of times that item occurs in nums.
And call occursCount in main and print the
result. occursCount must look for the item from first
index of the array to the last.
occursAtLeast2 that takes two
arguments (item and nums) and returns true
if item occurs in nums at least twice
and false if not. And call occursAtLeast2
in main and print the result. occursAtLeast2
must search from the first index of the array to the last. All
the way to the last element if necessary. As soon as it can
determine that item occurs at least two times
in nums, it should return instead of continuing to the
last element of the array.
occursExactly2 that takes two
arguments (item and nums) and returns true
if item occurs in nums exactly twice
and false if not. And call occursExactly2
in main and print the result. occursExactly2
must look for the item from first index of the array to
the last.
twoInRow that takes two
arguments (item and nums) and returns true
if item occurs in nums two times in a row in the array.
and false if not. For example, [0, 1, 1] has two 1's in a row, but [1, 0, 1] does not.
And call twoInRow
in main and print the result. twoInRow
must look for the item from first index of the array to
the last and can return early if it sees the item twice in a row.
Please make sure you finish these all! even if you don't finish them all in the lab session. If you have finished these all, you may leave the meeting. If you have not finished them all and yet if you stayed until the end of the session, be sure to finish them outside the lab. You know that we have instructors and TAs who can help you during their office hours. Be sure to get some help.
