COMP1721 Object-Oriented Programming

Coursework 1: Creating & Using Classes

1 Introduction

This assignment assesses your ability to implement classes and use them in a small program.

Consider the GPS data generated by a device such as a mobile phone. Your current location is represented

as a point, consisting of a timestamp, a longitude (in degrees), a latitude (in degrees) and an elevation above

sea level (in metres). Movement while GPS is enabled generates a track: a sequence of points representing

successive samples from the GPS sensor.

Your main task is to implement classes named Point and Trackthat can be used to represent points and

tracks, along with a small program that demonstrates the use of these classes. Figure 1 is a UML class

diagram showing the required features of, and relationship between, the two classes.

2 Preparation

2.1 Files Needed

Download cwk1files.zip from Minerva and unzip it. The best way of doing this on a SoC Linux machine

is in a terminal window, via the command

unzip cwk1files.zip

This will give you a directory named cwk1, containing all of the files you need.

Remove the Zip archive, then study the files in cwk1. In particular, examine the file README.md , as this

provides guidance on how to run the tests on which your mark will be largely based.

Note: all code should be written in the .java files provided in the src/main/javasubdirectory.

2.2 Method Stubs

A suite of unit tests is provided with the files for this coursework. These tests are used to verify that the

methods of the two classes have been implemented correctly. You will be awarded one mark for each test

that passes. The starting point for the coursework is to make sure that the tests compile and run.This means

that it is necessary to begin by creating method stubs: dummy versions of each method that do just enough

that the tests will compile successfully.

Refer to Figure 1 for details of the stubs that are required, and note the following:

• All stubs should have the parameter lists and return types shown in the UML diagram

• Constructors should be implemented as empty methods (nothing inside the braces)

• Any method that returns a numeric value should just return a value of zero

• Any method that returns an object should just return the valuenull

Note also that thePoint class references a class from the Java standard library namedZonedDateTime . This

is part of Java’s standard Date/Time API, defined in the package java.time—see the API documentation

for further details. To use it, you will need to add animportstatement to the start of Point.java:

import java.time.ZonedDateTime;

When you have created stubs for all the methods shown in Figure 1, you can attempt to compile and run the

tests using Gradle. See README.md for full details of how Gradle can be used.We simply note here that you

can run the tests from a Linux or macOS command line with

./gradlew test

Omit the ./ from the start of this command if you are working from the Windows command prompt, or use

.\gradlew.batto invoke Gradle if you are using Windows Powershell.

3 Basic Solution

This is worth 18 marks.

Please read all of the subsections below before starting work. We also recommend that you gain some

experience of implementing classes by doing the relevant formative exercises before you start.

3.1 PointClass

To complete the implementation of thePoint class, make the following changes toPoint.java:

• Add a field to represent the timestamp, of typeZonedDateTime(see below).

• Add fields to represent longitude, latitude and elevation, all of typedouble.

• Add code to the constructor that initialises the fields to the values supplied as method parameters,

with validation done for longitude and latitude (see below).

• Modify the ‘getter’ methods (getTime(), getLongitude(), etc) so that they return the relevant field

values, instead of the defaults like 0 ornull that were returned by the stubs.

• Change toString() so that it returns a string representation of a Point looking like this:

(-1.54853, 53.80462), 72.5 m

(The values here are longitude, then latitude, then elevation. The string should be formatted exactly

as shown here. Note the specific number of decimal places being used for each number!)

Make sure that it is not possible to create a Point object with an invalid latitude or longitude. Use the

constants provided in the class to help you with this, and throw an instance of the provided exception class,

GPSException, if inappropriate coordinates are supplied.

As you replace each method stub with its correct implementation, rerun the tests.You should see a growing

number of tests changing in status from FAILED to PASSED.

3.2 TrackClass

For the basic solution, make the following changes toTrack.java:

• Add a field suitable for storing a sequence ofPoint objects.

• Modify the constructor that take a string as its parameter, so that it initialises the field used to store

the Point objects and then calls the readFile() method.

• Add to readFile() some code that will read data from the file with the given filename, createPoint

objects from this data and then store those Point objects as a sequence (see below).

• Modify the size() method so that it returns the number of points currently stored in the track.

• Modift the get() method so that it returns thePoint object stored at a given position in the sequence.

Position is specified as an int parameter and should be validated (see below).

• Modify the add()method so that it adds a new point, supplied as a method parameter, to the end of

the track.

2

The readFile() method will need to read CSV files, examples of which can be found in thedatadirectory.

It should use a Scannerto do this. A good approach here would be to read the file line-by-line, split up the

line on commas, then parse each item separately.The lectures discuss how a file can be read in this manner.

You can use the static methodparse() of the ZonedDateTimeclass to parse the timestamp.

readFile() should NOT catch any exceptions that might occur during reading of the file. It will need an

exception specification, declaring that anIOExceptioncould happen if the named file cannot be accessed.

Your implementation should also explicitly throw a GPSExceptionif any record within the file doesn’t

contain the exact number of values needed to create a Point object. Note that you do not need to include

GPSExceptionas part of the method’s exception specification, because this exception class is not one of

Java’s ‘checked exception’ types.

The get() method should use the int value passed to it as an index into the sequence ofPoint objects, but

before doing that the method should check this int value and throw an instance of GPSExceptionif it is

not within the allowed range. Once again, note that there is no need to include an exception specification

for this.

As you replace each method stub with its correct implementation, rerun the tests.You should see a growing

number of tests changing in status from FAILED to PASSED.

4 Full Solution

This is worth a further 12 marks. It involves completing the implementation of the Trackclass and then

writing a small program that uses the two classes.

4.1 TrackClass

If you’ve completed the basic solution, there should be four remaining method stubs inTrack.java, which

should be modified as indicated below.

• Modify lowestPoint() and highestPoint() so that they return thePoint objects having the lowest

and highest elevations, respectively.

• Modify totalDistance() so that it returns the total distance travelled in metres when moving from

point to point along the entire length of the track (see below).

• Modify averageSpeed()so that it returns the average speed along the track, in metres per second

(see below)

All four of these methods should throw aGPSExceptionif the track doesn’t contain enough points to do the

necessary computation.

To implementtotalDistance(), you will need to compute ‘great-circle distance’ between adjacent points

on the track. A method to do this already exists in the Point class. Given two Point objects, pand q, the

great-circle distance in metres between them (ignoring elevation) will be given by

double distance = Point.greatCircleDistance(p, q);

To implement averageSpeed()you will need to compute the amount of time that has passed between

measurements for the first and last points on the track.You can use theChronoUnittype for this: specifically,

the between()method, which can be called on the object ChronoUnit.SECONDS to yield the time interval

in seconds between twoZonedDateTimeobjects.

Note: the ChronoUnitclass is part of Java’s standard Date/Time API. To use it, you will need to add an

importstatement to Track.java:

import java.time.temporal.ChronoUnit;

As you replace each method stub with its correct implementation, rerun the tests. Your goal here is to end

up with all 26 tests passing. If you achieve this, you can be assured of getting at least 26 marks for the

coursework.

4.2 TrackInfoProgram

Edit the file TrackInfo.java. In this file, create a small program that creates a Trackobject from data in

a file whose name is provided as a command line argument. You program should display: the number of

points in the track; its lowest and highest points; the total distance travelled; and the average speed.

3

Requiring the filename as a command line argument means that it has to be supplied as part of the command

that runs the program; the program should not be prompting for input of the filename once it has started

running!

For example, if running the program directly within a terminal window, you would need to enter

java TrackInfo walk.csv

Note that you can run the program with a suitable command line argument via Gradle:

./gradlew run

This will run the program on the file data/walk.csv.

You can also check whether your program behaves correctly when no filename has been supplied on the

command line, by doing

./gradlew runNoFile

When your program is run on walk.csv, it should generate output very similar to this:

194 points in track

Lowest point is (-1.53637, 53.79680), 35.0 m

Highest point is (-1.54835, 53.80438), 73.6 m

Total distance = 1.904 km

Average speed = 1.441 m/s

Your output doesn’t need to be identical in layout, but it should provide all the data shown here, and numbers

should be formatted with the number of decimal places shown in this example.

If no filename is supplied on the command line, your program should print a helpful error message and then

use System.exit()to terminate, with a value of zero for exit status.

The program should intercept any exceptions that occur when reading from the file or performing computation. The program should print the error message associated with the exception and then use System.exit()

to terminate, with a non-zero value for exit status.

5 Advanced Tasks

For a few extra marks, implement ONE of two options suggested below.

These tasks are more challenging and will require additional reading/research. They are also worth

relatively few marks. Attempt them only if you manage to complete the previous work fairly quickly

and easily.

5.1 Option 1: KML Files

This is worth an additional 2 marks.

1. Add to theTrackclass a new method namedwriteKML. This should have a singleString parameter,

representing a filename. It should write track data to the given file, using Google’s Keyhole Markup

Language format.

2. Edit ConvertToKML.javaand add to it a program that converts a CSV file of track data into a KML

file. The program should expect filenames for these two files as command line arguments, with the

CSV file as the first argument and the KML file as the second argument. It should deal with missing

arguments and exceptions in the same way asTrackInfo.

3. Generate a KML file for the track represented bywalk.csv. You can do this with Gradle, using

./gradlew runKML

This will generate its output in a file walk.kml, in the build subdirectory.

Visualise the file by uploading it to Google Maps (see Figure 2) or by importing it into Google Earth.

Grab a screenshot of the result and place it in the cwk1directory so that it will be included in your

submission.

5.2 Option 2: Elevation Plot

This is worth an additional 4 marks.

1. Investigate JavaFX by reading David Eck’s online Java Notes and other online sources.In particular,

you will need to research how charts can be drawn in JavaFX.

2. Edit build.gradle and uncomment the various commented-out parts relating to JavaFX.

3. Edit the file PlotApplication.java and implement in this file a JavaFX application that plots

elevation as a function of distance along a track. As with TrackInfo, the file of track data should be

specified as a command line argument.

You can run your application onwalk.csvvia Gradle, with this command:

./gradlew runPlot

Figure 3 shows an example of what the plot could look like.

6 Submission

Use Gradle to generate a Zip archive containing all the files that need to be submitted:

./gradlew submission

This produces a file named cwk1.zip. Submit this file to Minerva, via link provided for this purpose. You

can find this link in the ‘Assessment and Feedback’ section, under ‘Submit My Work’.

Note: be careful to submit the correct Zip archive here! Make sure you do not accidentally submit the Zip

archive of provided files . . .

The deadline for submissions is 14.00 Wednesday 6th March 2024. The standard university penalty of 5%

of available marks per day will apply to late work, unless an extension has been arranged due to genuine

extenuating circumstances.
