Sorting Laundry
Due 10/31/2025 by 11:55pm
Objective:
Write a program that
will sort a basket of clothes into their proper drawers. If you were not aware you are sort clothes by
their type in this order:
- Top Drawer – Undergarments
- Next Drawer – Socks or Stockings
- The Following Drawer – Tops
- The Subsequent Drawer – Bottoms
- The Cape Drawer – Capes
Requirements:
- Functionality. (80pts)
- No Syntax Errors.
(80pts*)
- *Code that cannot be
compiled due to syntax errors is nonfunctional code and will receive no
points for this entire section.
- Write a class called Clothing with the following
(10pts):
- Instance Variables (1pt)
- Type: A value that
represents the type of clothing, and can only have the value
“Undergarment”, “Socks”, “Stockings”, “Top”, “Bottom”, or “Cape”. Its
default value should be “Socks”
- Color: A value that
represents the color of the clothing, and can only have the value
“Brown”, “Red”, “Pink”, “Black”, “White”, “Orange”, “Green”, “Blue”,
“Purple”, or “Grey”. Its default value should be “Black”.
- All must have the
private scope, and all above must apply for full credit.
- Constructors (2pts)
- Default: Must set all
properties to their default values mentioned in the “Instance
Variables” section.
- Parameterized: Must
take in a parameter for each instance variable in the order named
above. This means the first instance variable is the first parameter,
the second instance variable is the second parameter, and so on. This
must set the instance variable values only if the given values are
valid, but otherwise it must set the instance variables to their
default values.
- All above must apply
for full credit.
- Methods
- Accessors for the
instance variables. (1pt)
- All must be written
for full credit.
- Mutators for the
instance variables. (2pts)
- Make sure in the
mutators check for valid values named in the “Instance Variables”
Section.
- If the value that is
being set is not valid, then set the instance variable to its default
value.
- All above must apply
for full credit.
- toString (2pts): This
method returns a String with all of the instance variable values concatenated
together with the format:
[Clothing]
Type: <<Type>> Color: <<Color>>
Where values in “<<>>”
correspond to instance variable values.
- Equals (2pts): This
method takes in another instance of Clothing and only returns true if
all of the instance variables match.
- Write a class called Dresser with the following: (60pts)
- Instance Variables (5pts)
- Clothes: This is a 2D
array of type clothing where it has 5 Drawers that can only hold 10
items of clothing.
- All must have the
private scope, and all above must apply for full credit.
- Constructors (5pts)
- Default: Must construct
the clothes array given the correct dimensions.
- Methods
- No Accessors of
Mutators.
- Add (20pts): Takes in
an instance of Clothing as a parameter and returns nothing. The parameter is then sorted in their
proper drawers by its type as mentioned above. If a drawer is full make sure to tell
the user.
- Remove (20pts): Takes
in an instance of Clothing as a parameter and returns nothing. This method searches for a piece of
clothing, and if it exists it is removed. This can be done by either
setting the value to null or shifting memory addresses.
- Print (10pts): This
prints out every piece of clothing’s information in the dresser to the
console.
- Write a class called DresserFrontEnd with the
following (10pts):
- Include the main method.
- The program must prompt
the user with the options
- Add Clothes to the
Dresser
- Remove Clothes from the
Dresser
- Quit
- If the user chooses to
add clothes to the dresser, then the user must be prompted to enter the
clothes’ information. Once entered the program must add the new article
of clothing to the correct dresser drawer. If that drawer is full, then
the program may ignore the request.
- If the user chooses to
remove clothes from the dresser, then the user must be prompted to enter
the clothes’ information. Once entered the program must search and
remove that article of clothing from the dresser. If the item being
removed does not exist in the dresser, then the program may ignore the
request.
- After every operation,
the program must clearly print out the items contained in the dresser.
- All above must apply for
full credit.
- Coding Style. (10pts)
- Code functionality
organized within multiple methods other than the main method, and methods
organized within multiple classes where appropriate. (5pts)
- Readable Code. (5pts)
- Meaningful identifiers
for data and methods.
- Proper indentation that
clearly identifies statements within the body of a class, a method, a
branching statement, a loop statement, etc.
- All the above must apply
for full credit.
- Comments. (10pts)
- Your name in every file.
(5pts)
- At least 5 meaningful
comments in addition to your name. These must describe the function of
the code it is near. (5pts)
Example Dialog:
*The following
Example Dialog demonstrates the interactions between a user and ONE possible
implementation of the required software’s front-end / user interface. The
software’s front-end / user interface may be implemented in MANY different
ways and will receive full credit as long as it meets the most minimal of
the above requirements. While you may use the example dialog as a guide, it is
strongly encouraged to create the front-end / user interface in your own way. *
