Developing in the mobile space can be a daunting task for developers.  Developers must figure out which platforms they should support for their apps, purchase the hardware, and join the developer programs for each platform.   PhoneGap is an open-source set of tools that enables developers to create mobile applications for multiple devices by utilizing the same code. It is a hybrid mobile application framework that allows the use of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to write applications that are based on the open standards of the web.  MonoTouch and Mono for Android rely on the Mono Framework to function. Mono is a cross-platform open-source implementation of the .NET Framework. Answer Below.

• 1. How is sharing code is one of the most appealing reasons to use MonoTouch and Mono for Android?  Explain
• 2. How is the use of debugging tools helpful in resolving mobile application issues quickly?

 Q3: Practical Connection – 550 words ——- Separate Document 

Provide a reflection of at least 550 words of how the knowledge, skills, or theories of this course have been applied, or could be applied, in a practical manner to your current work environment. If you are not currently working, share times when you have or could observe these theories and knowledge could be applied to an employment opportunity in your field of study. Requirements:

• Provide a 2 full pages double spaced minimum reflection.
• Use of proper APA formatting and citations. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited.
• Share a personal connection that identifies specific knowledge and theories from this course.
• Demonstrate a connection to your current work environment. If you are not employed, demonstrate a connection to your desired work environment. 
• The assignment asks that you reflect how the knowledge and skills obtained through meeting course objectives were applied or could be applied in the workplace. 
• Any use of outside sources, including your own prior work, will result in a zero on the activity and a report being filed with Academic Affairs regarding plagiarism (even if self-plagiarism). 

Compare the relational data model with the object-oriented data model. What in your opinion is the distinguishing feature of each? Is there a relation between the two models?

1. The file Sorts.java contains several different sorting methods that operate on integer

arrays. We want to make these algorithms generic, like we did with the Search methods,

so that they will work on any object type.  To do this, convert the static methods to generic

methods using the same steps as in Homework 5. Be careful to consider which method

parameters (and possibly, local variables) must also be converted to use the type

parameter.

As with the search methods, sorting methods must use the compareTo method when

comparing objects to determine their order. So again we have to ensure that objects in the

arrays we sort implement the Comparable interface and modify the code to

use compareTo in place of  greater than/less than operators.  Refer back to Homework

5 and the referenced section of  the textbook.

2. Add a method isSorted to this class. This method is for determining if  an array is

sorted or not, and should also be a generic method.

3. As with the methods in Searches.java, if  I give you an array of  objects to sort that don’t

implement Comparable, the sorting method will fail (hopefully at the compile stage!).

To ensure that the type parameter used by our generic methods “screens out” object types

that aren’t searchable or sortable, replace the simple type parameter in the method header

(after the keyword static) with the following:

>

By adding this more complex form of  type parameter, things that can’t be compared

won’t compile if  someone tries to pass an array of  a non-comparable type. Furthermore,

things that inherit from a class that implements Comparable will work.

4. Test that arrays of  type String work with your methods by writing a test program in a

separate class to test your changes to the Sorts class. This program will perform the

following operations:

◦ open a file (you’ll get the file’s name from the command-line) that contains a

count, then a list of  dictionary words, one word per line

the first line in the file is the number of  words in the file; use this to create an

array of  the proper size

◦

◦ read words from each subsequent line of  the file into the array 

◦

test each sorting method as described below 

5. Download and use these test files: american-words.35, american-words.80, dictionary.txt,

and large file of  unsorted strings (the first three files are already sorted). 

6. Write a real simple program to test that an array of  some non-comparable type does

NOT work. Use your Polynomial class for this test. 

Part 1: Questions

1. (2 points) When deriving a new class from an existing class using inheritance, which

instance variables are accessible to the derived class? Write down the best answer:

1.

those with the private access modifier

2.

those with the protected access modifier

3.

those with no access modifier

4. both 1 and 2

5. both 2 and 3

2. (2 points) Show a simple example of how an alias is created in Java. For this example,

you might use String objects.

3. (4 points) Read the code below and determine what is output when it runs. Write out your

answer and show the contents of the array tee. Assume uninitialized array slots contain

0.


int[] ess;

int[] tee;

ess = new int [8];

ess[4] = 101;

tee = ess;

ess[4] = -3;

System.out.print(tee[6]);

4. (4 points) Give the order of growth estimate of the following functions using Big-O

notation:

◦ 13N + 2

◦ 13N + 2 + N

2

◦ 13N + 2 log2N

◦ 3N log2N + 23N

Part 2: Stack Questions (26 points)

1. (9 points) Practice your understanding of stacks by drawing the abstact diagram of a stack

and its contests after each stack operation. If there is no change to the stack’s state after an

operation, just say “No Change.” Be sure to label the top of stack:

LinkedStack stk = new LinkedStack();

stk.push(7);

stk.push(5);

stk.push(4);

int x  = stk.top();

stk.pop();

int y  = stk.top();

stk.pop();

stk.push(x + y);

int x  = stk.top();

int y  = stk.top();

stk.push(x * y);

stk.pop();

2. (9 points) Assume we’re using a LinkedStack to implement the stack from the

previous problem. Show the state of the stack after each instruction executed in the above

problem. Be sure to label the top of stack properly.

3. (4+4 points) Using the code for  class LinkedStack in your text, show how to add

methods equals and toString, for a stack. Just write these out here, don’t print out

the whole class.

Two stacks are equal if they have the same size, and contain the exact same items in the

same order.

The string representation toString should return of a stack is just the

word Top: followed by each element separated by a space. Note this does break the stack

discipline (that you can only see the first item in the stack) but is useful for debugging

applications that use the stack.
