Document Summary

Lecture 1: you should be able to define prescriptivism and descriptivism, and be able to associate a given viewpoint with one or the other. prescriptivism: how people ought to speak; some ways of speaking are better than others. descriptivism: no type of english is better, or more logical or clearer than any other. Lecture 2: you should be able to define morpheme. the smallest unit of meaning: you should be able to define and identify cran- morphemes. the bound root morphemes that cannot stand alone (it"s only when they"re in combination with other morphemes that they have meaning: you should be able to define constituent. the words being part of groups (some words have a closer connection with one another than with other words in the sentence) Lecture 3: you should be able to define deictic and anaphoric.

2. In this section you will be shown several classes. Inside the code for each class will be a question. You should provide your answer to the question inside the chart. Many of the questions will ask you whether a variable has changed or not. In cases that the variable being asked about is a primitive type, you should provide your answer based on the data stored in the primitive type. In cases that the variable being asked about is a reference type, you should provide your answer based on the data stored at the Object linked to by the reference type. For example, in the first snippet, the question asks about the variable x defined in the main method. Since x is a primitive type, you should answer YES if you think the variable x has had its value changed after the method methodOne() returns. All your answers should go in the chart below: (9 points) Part Answer to question x changed (circle one)? YES NO y changed (circle one)? a changed (circle one)? b changed (circle one)? d1 a changed (circle one)? b changed (circle one)? YES e words changed (circle one)? YES NO Values in array of array referred to by y: What is printed to the screen? (a) public class ReferenceTesti public static void methodOne (int x){ x++; public static void main(String[args) { int x = 0; methodOne (x); //IS THE DATA STORED OR REFERRED TO BY X THE SAME? (ANSWER IN CHART)

7. Write a class MetroLine in which you define a new type MetroLine (10 points) A MetroLine is defined to have the following private properties: • A String representing the colour of the line (e.g. blue, red, green, etc. No numbers. It's Montreal, not Manhattan!) • A collection of MetroStation This collection can be either a built in array, an ArrayList, or any other kind of collection you feel would satisfy the requirements of the class. The collection must be able to define an ordering from "beginning" to "end" of the MetroLine. It does not matter which part you consider the beginning and which part is the "end" as long as it is consistent. (We recommend using ArrayList but you are free to do otherwise if you feel it will be casier.) A MetroLine should have the following methods defined: • A constructor which takes nothing as input and performs any initialization necessary to maintain your collection of stations. • A method addstation which takes as input a MetroStation and adds it to the end of your collection. The method can assume the station is not already part of the collection and should return void. Note that the order the MetroStations are added is the same as the path the trains will travel on (or it could be the reverse path as well). • A method hasStation which takes as input a MetroStation and returns a boolean representing whether the metro line has a MetroStation with the same name or not. A method get LineColour which returns the colour of the line. • A method get First Stop which returns the MetroStation representing the first stop of the metro line. If there is no such station (ic, if the collection of MetroStation is empty), your method should return null. • A method get PriorStop which takes as input a MetroStation and returns the stop prior to the MetroStation passed as input. You may assume that the MetroStation passed as input is indeed in the collection of MetroStations If the current station is the first stop on the MetroLine then this method should return null. You may assume that there are no "loops" in the MetroLine That is, no station is present on the same line twice. A method getNext Stop which takes as input a MetroStation and returns the stop after the MetroStation passed as input. You may assume that the Metrostation passed as input is indeed in the collection of Metrostations. If the current station is the last stop on the MetroLine, then this method should return null. You may assume that there are no "loops" in the MetroLine That is, no station is present on the same line twice. For the above methods, you may assume that there is no aliasing issue. That is to say, you can use == to compare the references, or if you are using a type such as ArrayList to maintain your list of stations, you can use the indexOf or contains method defined on an ArrayList.

Question 6.6 MARKS] Two friends like to send messages to each other, but they don't want anyone else to read the messages. To keep the messages private, they change each letter in the original message to a different letter of the alphabet. For every letter, they both know which letter will be substituted for it, which is called an encoding. The message will contain only lowercase letters. It will not contain whitespace, digits, or punctuation. The receiver of a secret message doesn't want to convert it back to the original message by hand. Instead, that person asks you to write a function to do it. Following the function design recipe, define a function that given a secret message and the encoding used, returns the original message. Choose a meaningful function name, and add a docstring that includes the type contract, the description, and two examples that return different values. You must choose the types to use to represent the data, and you will be marked not only on the correctness of the function, but also on your choice of data structures.
