Document Summary

In tutorials, student pairs will make short (6 minute) presentations about a country s corruption, violence or both, depending on what material will be covered that week in readings and lectures. Up to three pairs of students will sign up to present each tutorial. Acquire experience making presentations, a common form of communication at university and in fields like public policy. Complete original research on specific cases of corruption and violence. Apply (and share) concepts from class to specific cases and examples. We recommend that students select a specific news story, theme or topic like police corruption or paramilitary forces. Students are encouraged to choose what countries or cases that they are interested in, including those they may already have experience or insight into. Before october 11, presentations should be related to corruption. 1, presentations can be made on either corruption or violence. After november 1, all presentations should focus on violence.

Programming Writing Montreal Maps In the following questions, you will write classes that allow one to suggest a route to get from one point to another on a metro or train line. Note that for all of these questions, we will make the simplifying assumption that the earth is flat and that everything resides in 2 dimensions. (There were metros before Columbus and Galileo, right?) 6. Write a class MetroStation in which you define a new type MetroStation. (10 points) A MetroStation is defined to have the following private properties: • String name This represents the name of the metro station (e.g. Atwater, McGill, etc) • double xPosition This represents the x location of the metro station. • double y Position This represents the y location of the metro station. An MetroStation object should have the following public methods/behaviors defined on it. • A constructor that takes as input a String stationName, a double x, and a double y. The constructor should initialize the properties name, xPosition, and yPosition to these three values respectively • A method getName() which returns the name of the Metrostation. • A method get XPosition () which returns the x location of the Metrostation • A method get Position () which returns the y location of the Metrostation • A method equals (Metrostation other) which returns a boolean representing whether the name property of the this MetroStation is equal to the name property of other.

8. Write a class called WordSet representing a set of String objects which can contain an arbitrary number of strings, limited only by the memory available to the Java Virtual Machine. A set is a collection of elements, however, unlike a list, a set cannot contain duplicate elements. Therefore, as its name implies, a WordSet object cannot contain duplicate Strings that is, if one attempts to da String to a Wordset, and the wordset already contains an element which is equal to this string, the attempt will fail and the state of the Wordset will not change. All String comparisons performed in the methods defined in the Wordset class are done in a Case SENSITIVE manner. Note that in the method descriptions below, the phrase "this Wordset" means "the Wordset on which the method in question is called." Your Wordset class MUST provide the following INSTANCE methods • A constructor, which takes no parameters and initializes the new Wordset ohject so that it contains no elements • A method called add(), which takes as its only parameter a string and returns a value of type boolean. If this Wordset already contains a string which is equal to the parameter string, or the parameter String is null, then the state of this Wordset does not change and the method return false; otherwise, the parameter String is added to this Wordset. and the method returns true. • A method called remove().which takes as its only parameter a string and returns a value of type boolean. If this wordSet contains a string which is equal to the parameter String this string is removed from the WordSet and the method returns true. On the other hand, if the string parameter is null or this Wordset does not contain a string which is equal to the parameter string, then the state of this wordset does not change, and the method return false. • A method called get.size(), which takes no parameters and returns the number of strings currently stored in this Wordset. This method MUST NOT change the state of this Wordset. • A method called isMember(). which takes as its only parameter a string and retumsa value of type boolean which is true if this wordset contains the parameter String false otherwise. If the parameter String is null, this method also return false. This method MUST NOT change the state of this wordset. • A method called computebirrerence().which takes as its only parameter a Wordset and returns a new Wordset representing the difference between this wordset and the parameter Wordset: in other words, the WordSet returned by this method contains all the strings that are in this wordset, but not in the parameter Wordset. If the parameter Wordset contains all the elements of this WordSet or this WordSet contains no elements, then this method returns a new Wordset containing no elements. Finally, if the parameter Wordset is null or contains ne strings, then this method returns a new wordset which contains all the elements of this wordset. This method MUST NOT change the state of this wordset or the parameter Wordset. • A method called tostring , which takes the parameters and turns a string which is the textual representation of this wordset. This textual representation consists of the concatena tion of the following clements - The String - The text representation of each clement in the WordSet; cach pair of adjacent clements is separated by the String", but this String MUST NOT appear before the first clement or after the last element - The String") The order in which the elements of this Wordset appear in the textual representation generated by the tostring() method does not matter. If the WordSet contains to Brings, then the textual representation returned by this method is ". Note that you MUST respect proper encapsulation practices that is, the attributes and methods of your class MUST be declared using the proper visibility modifier NINT Um an array list (of string) to keep track of the string stored in a wordt ob joot Is there a method defined in the Array loist class which determines whether in clementis already wored in an array ist, and which will do a case-sensitive comparison when liked on an Arraylint of strings? See the pages 24-26 of this examination for information about potentially useful methods defined by the ArrayList class WRITE YOUR Wordset CLASS IN THE SPACE BELOW:

33. Base10 is the set of numbers created from the digits {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}. Whereas base2, which is the set of numbers created with {0,1}. We could similarly define base; as the ordered set of characters created from {X,Y,Z}. What is the following basez number, Yxz, in base ? Random graph For this section you will need to look at the classes Graph and GraphNode present in the appendix. A Graph consists of a number of nodes, each of which has connections to other nodes in the graph. You can think of nodes as a representation of a person in a social network (e.g. Facebook). The ArrayList connectedTo variable in GraphNodes is the list of friends that particular person has. For example, in the following graph, the node O is friends with node 1 and 2. On the other hand, node 2 and node 1 are not friends, hence the lack of link. 0-0 In the constructor of the Graph, the process of connecting nodes is randomized. Moreover, we will not allow a node to be connected to itself and we are going to assume that the arguments passed to the Graph constructor respect the following conditions: n > 2, and n > nbConnections. Pay close attention to the character order
