OODP101 Individual Programming Solution Assessment Task 4 Answer

ASSESSMENT BRIEF

ASSESSMENT DESCRIPTION:

This assignment is an extension of Task 3.

The NSW service is conducting a survey about Opal Card weekly usage. They have collected surveys from 4 Opal card users about their daily fare in one week so far. The daily fare of each user is as follows:

**************************************************************************** Note: 1) The Sunday fare has a daily limit of $2.7 (e.g. the maximum Sunday amount is $2.7)

2) The weekly fare has a cap of $63.2 (e.g. the maximum weekly amount is $63.2)

***************************************************************************** Write a Java program that will use the above values and other similar data then generate some statistics, thus:

1. You will use a text file to read the user data (User, Mon to Sat fares).
2. You will have to create a Commuter Class with the data members and methods.
3. You will then need to store the data from the above using a file in an array of object of the commuter class.
4. You will need to add Sunday fares as input to your program.
5. Calculate total fares for each commuter and sort in descending order.
6. Save all the data to a different output text file or output the result on the screen.

Your program must not crash. You have several options to prevent crashes:

1. use try/catch
2. use regex (regular expressions)
3. use both

GENERAL NOTES FOR ASSIGNMENTS

Assignments should usually incorporate a formal introduction, main points and conclusion, and will be fully referenced including a reference list.

The work must be fully referenced with in-text citations and a reference list at the end. We strongly recommend you to refer to the Academic Learning Skills materials available in the Moodle. For details please click the link http://moodle.kent.edu.au/kentmoodle/course/view.php?id=5 and download the file “Harvard Referencing Workbook”. Appropriate academic writing and referencing are inevitable academic skills that you must develop and demonstrate.

We recommend a minimum of FIVE references, unless instructed differently by your lecturer. Unless specifically instructed otherwise by your lecturer, any paper with less than FIVE references may be failed. Work that includes sources that are not properly referenced according to the “Harvard Referencing Workbook” will be penalised.

Marks will be deducted for failure to adhere to the word count – as a general rule you may go over or under by 10% than the stated length.

GENERAL NOTES FOR REFERENCING

High quality work must be fully referenced with in-text citations and a reference list at the end. We recommend you work with your Academic Learning Support (ALS) site ( http://moodle.kent.edu.au/kentmoodle/course/view.php?id=5)available in Moodle to ensure that you reference correctly.

References are assessed for their quality. You should draw on quality academic sources, such as books, chapters from edited books, journals etc. Your textbook can be used as a reference, but not the lecturer notes. We want to see evidence that you are capable of conducting your own research. Also, in order to help markers determine students’ understanding of the work they cite, all in-text references (not just direct quotes) must include the specific page number/s if shown in the original.

PLAGIARISM: HOW TO AVOID IT

You can search for peer-reviewed journal articles, which you can find in the online journal databases and which can be accessed from the library homepage. Wikipedia, online dictionaries and online encyclopaedias are acceptable as a starting point to gain knowledge about a topic, but should not be overused – these should constitute no more than 10% of your total list of references/sources. Additional information and literature can be used where these are produced by legitimate sources, such as government departments, research institutes such as the NHMRC, or international organisations such as the World Health Organisation (WHO). Legitimate organisations and government departments produce peer reviewed reports and articles and are therefore very useful and mostly very current. The content of the following link explains why it is not acceptable to use non- peer reviewed websites: Why can't I just Google? (Thanks to La Trobe University for this video)
