Words Assignment

Based on the Lab16c assignment from Stacey Armstrong

Introduction
The purpose of this assignment is to give students practice with Strings, arrays, and ArrayLists. It
also provides the opportunity to work with several interacting classes.
Overview
This project utilizes three new classes:
- Word- an immutable class representing a word
- Words - a class representing a list of Word objects
- WordTester- a class used to test the Word and Words classes.
Starter Code
The folder Words Student contains a JCreator project with starter code for the three classes.
WordTester (the application) is complete and only requires uncommenting to test the Word and
Words classes as they are completed. The needed imports, class headings, method headings, and
block comments are provided for the remaining classes. Javadocs are also provided for the Word
and Words classes.
Word – This part of the lab has been done for you.Look at the main WordTester to see how it
uses a Word object. Run the main to see the results of the tester code.
The Word class represents a single word. It is immutable. You have been provided a skeleton for
this class. Complete the Word class using the block comments, Javadocs, and the following
instructions.
1. Add a String instance variable named word which will contain the word.
2. Complete the one parameter constructor to initialize the word instance variable.
3. Complete the getLength method to return the number of characters in the word.
4. Complete the getNumVowels method to return the number of vowels in the word. It should
use the VOWELS class constant and String’s length, substring, and indexOf methods. Do not use
more than one loop. Do not use any String methods that are not in the AP Subset.
5. Complete the getReverse method to return a Word with the letters of this reversed.
6. Complete the toString method to return the String word.
7. Uncomment the Word test code in WordTester and make sure that Word works correctly.
Words

The Words class represents a list of words. You have been provided a skeleton for this class.
Complete the Words class using the block comments, Javadocs, and the following instructions.
Step has been done for you.
1. Add a List instance variable named words which will contain the list of words. Be sure to
specify the type of objects that will be stored in the List. Be sure that the instance variable is
private.
2. Complete the one parameter constructor to initialize the words instance variable. You will
need to create the ArrayList and add each word to it. Be sure to create a new Word object with
each String in the parameter array wordList and then add it to the ArrayList words. This would
be a great place to use a for-each loop. Your code should not generate any warnings.
3. Complete the countWordsWithNumChars method to return the number of words with lengths
of num characters.
4. Complete the removeWordsWithNumChars method to remove all words with lengths of num
characters.
5. Complete the countWordsWithNumVowels method to return the number of words that have
num vowels.
6. Complete the getReversedWords method to return an array of reversed words.
7. Complete the toString method to return the words as a String. You should utilize ArrayLists’s
toString method.
8. Uncomment the Words test code in WordTester and make sure that Words works correctly.
