Description
1 Task 1: Complete Weekly Java Tutorial Videos
• For Lab4, you are assigned to study Week 5 Part A to Part D of the Java tutorial series:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5dxAmCmjv_7Ri55ckAVTx0IbtcJEqzz8 [ Week 5 only ]
To reference tutorial videos from the previous weeks, see:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5dxAmCmjv_6wy2m0yq2wObIWPz4tAxW6 [ All Weeks ]
These Java tutorial videos assigned to you are meant for you to:
1. Obtain extra hands-on programming experience on Java, supplementing your weekly lectures.
2. Complete the lab assignment with the necessary skills and background.
Though we do not require the submission of the weekly Java tutorial project (like in Lab0), examples and
insights discussed in these tutorials will be covered in your (written and programming) tests
and exam: should you decide to skip the weekly tutorial videos, it would be your choice.
As you study through the example Java classes in the tutorial videos, you are advised to type them out
(but absolutely feel free to add new Java classes to experiment) on Eclipse.
• You can find the iPad notes of illustrations from the tutorial videos here:
https://www.eecs.yorku.ca/˜jackie/teaching/tutorials/notes/EECS1022%20Tutorial%20on%20Java.pdf
Getting Prepared for Programming Test 2
• Your Programming Test 2 (shortly after the reading week) will cover loops and arrays.
• Three sets of practice test questions are available on the M,N,O eClass site (under the Practice Programming
Tests section).
Here is a tutorial series on the solution to each question:
• You may consider tackling some of the practice tests, which will help you complete the lab exercises.

2 Task 2: Complete Programming Exercises
Starting Task 2 should mean that you have already completed the weekly Java tutorial videos (Section 1).
2.1 Step 1: Download and Import the Starter Project
1. Download the Eclipse Java project archive file from eClass: EECS1022 W21 Lab4.zip
2. Launch Eclipse and browse to EECS1022-W21-workspace as the Workspace then click on Launch, e.g.,
3. In Eclipse:
3.1 Choose File, then Import. 3.2 Under General, choose Existing Projects into Workspace.
3.3 Choose Select archive file. Make sure that the EECS1022 W21 Lab4 box is checked under Projects.
Then Finish.

2.2 Step 2: Programming Tasks
From the Package Explorer of Eclipse, your imported project has the following structure.
• You can manually test the assigned methods using the corresponding console application classes in package
console apps. These classes are completed and given to you. See below for more descriptions.
• Your goal is to pass all JUnit tests given to you (i.e., a green bar). To run them, as shown in the Java
tutorials on Week 1, right click on TestUtilities.java and run it as JUnit tests. Of course, none of the
given tests would pass to begin with.
You must not modify these given JUnit tests.
How to Deal with a Failed JUnit Test? From the JUnit panel from Eclipse, click on the failed test, then
double click on the first line underneath Failure Trace, then you can see the expected value versus the return
value from your utility method.

2.2.1 Method to Implement: getMultiplesOf3
Problem. You are asked to implement a utility method which takes as input an array of integers and returns
another array containing all those elements that are multiples of 3. For example, if the input array is:
<2, 1, 6, 5, 4, 3>
Then the output or returned array is:
<6, 3>
Note that the length of the output array corresponds the number of elements in the input array that are multiples
of 3, meaning that if the input array is empty, or if there are no multiples of 3 in the input array, then the output
array should be empty.
Also, the output array should preserve the order in which these multiples, if any, appear in the input array. For
example, in the above example, multiples of 3 in the input array appear in the order of 6 followed by 3, which is
reflected in the output array.
Testing. Your goal is to first pass all tests related to this method in the JUnit test class TestUtilities. You
are encouraged to write additional JUnit tests. These tests document the expected values on various
cases: study them while developing your code.
However, use the console application class GetMultiplesOf3App if you wish (e.g., use the input and expected
values from the JUnit tests). Here is an example run:
How many numbers do you want to input?
10
Enter input 1:
89
Enter input 2:
23
Enter input 3:
42
Enter input 4:
87
Enter input 5:
18
Enter input 6:
36
Enter input 7:
23
Enter input 8:
97
Enter input 9:
102
Enter input 10:
987
<42, 87, 18, 36, 102, 987>
Todo. Implement the Utilities.getMultiplesOf3 method. See the comments there for the input parameters
and requirements.

2.2.2 Method to Implement: getFilteredSeq
Problem. You are asked to implement a utility method which takes as input an array (say numbers) of integers
and an integer (say n). Note that n may or may not exist in numbers. The utility method returns another array
containing all elements in numbers that are not equal to n. For example, if the input n is 3 and the input array
numbers is:
<3, 1, 2, 3, 4>
Then the output or returned array is:
<1, 2, 4>
Note that the length of the output array corresponds the number of elements in the input array that are not equal
to n, meaning that if the input array is empty, or if n does not exist in the input array, then the output array
should be just the same as the input array.
Also, the output array should preserve the order in which elements appear in the input array. For example, in
the above example, elements in the output array appear in the order of 1 followed by 2 and then by 4, which is
reflected in the input array.
Testing. Your goal is to first pass all tests related to this method in the JUnit test class TestUtilities. You
are encouraged to write additional JUnit tests. These tests document the expected values on various
cases: study them while developing your code.
However, use the console application class GetFilteredSeqApp if you wish (e.g., use the input and expected
values from the JUnit tests). Here is an example run:
How many numbers do you want to input?
5
Enter input 1:
3
Enter input 2:
1
Enter input 3:
2
Enter input 4:
3
Enter input 5:
4
Which number do you wish to filter from the input numbers?
3
<1, 2, 4>
Todo. Implement the Utilities.getFilteredSeq method. See the comments there for the input parameters
and requirements.
8
2.2.3 Method to Implement: getAllPrefixes
Problem. You are asked to implement a utility method which takes as input an array of integers and returns
another array of strings, each of which denoting a non-empty prefix of the input array. For example, if the input
array is:
<3, 1, 4>
Then the output or returned array of string values is:
<“[3]”, “[3, 1]”, “[3, 1, 4]”>
Note that the length of the output array is equal to the length of the input array. Also, elements in the output
array are “sorted” by the lengths of the prefixes (e.g,. the first element is the prefix of length 1, the second element
is the prefix of length 2).
Testing. Your goal is to first pass all tests related to this method in the JUnit test class TestUtilities. You
are encouraged to write additional JUnit tests. These tests document the expected values on various
cases: study them while developing your code.
However, use the console application class GetAllPrefixesApp if you wish (e.g., use the input and expected
values from the JUnit tests). Here is an example run:
How many numbers do you want to input?
5
Enter input 1:
3
Enter input 2:
1
Enter input 3:
4
Enter input 4:
2
Enter input 5:
5
<[3], [3, 1], [3, 1, 4], [3, 1, 4, 2], [3, 1, 4, 2, 5]>
Todo. Implement the Utilities.getAllPrefixes method. See the comments there for the input parameters
and requirements.
9
2.2.4 Method to Implement: getGroupedNumbers
Problem. You are asked to implement a utility method which takes as input an array of integers and returns
another array grouping all elements from the input array as follows, from left to right: 1) elements divisible by
3; 2) elements divided by 3 with the remainder 1; and 3) elements divided by 3 with the remainder 2. For example,
if the input array is:
<2, 4, 6, 5, 1, 3>
Then the output or returned array is:
h 6, 3
| {z }
Group 1
, 4, 1
| {z }
Group 2
, 2, 5
| {z }
Group 3
i
Note that the input and output arrays are equally long, meaning that if the input array is empty, then the output
array should be empty.
Also, each group of the output array should preserve the order in which its elements appear in the input array.
For example, in the above example, Group 2 of the output array (i.e., those divided by 3 with the remainder 1)
contains 4 followed by 1, reflecting their order in the input array.
Testing. Your goal is to first pass all tests related to this method in the JUnit test class TestUtilities. You
are encouraged to write additional JUnit tests. These tests document the expected values on various
cases: study them while developing your code.
However, use the console application class GetGroupedNumbersApp if you wish (e.g., use the input and expected
values from the JUnit tests). Here is an example run:
How many numbers do you want to input?
10
Enter input 1:
89
Enter input 2:
22
Enter input 3:
42
Enter input 4:
87
Enter input 5:
19
Enter input 6:
36
Enter input 7:
23
Enter input 8:
97
Enter input 9:
102
Enter input 10:
987
<42, 87, 36, 102, 987, 22, 19, 97, 89, 23>
Todo. Implement the Utilities.getGroupedNumbers method. See the comments there for the input parameters
and requirements.

3 Submission
1. Before you submit, you must make sure that the Problems panel on your Eclipse shows no errors (warnings
are acceptable). In case you do not see the Problems panel: click on Window, then Show View, then Problems.
Submitting programs with errors (meaning that it cannot be run for grading) will result in
possible partial, but low, marks.
2. Section 2.3 asks you to export the Java project as an archive file:
EECS1022 W21 Lab4.zip
Before you submit, verify that its unzipped version has the following structure:
