Comp 152 Project 1:
Review of Comp 151

Summary:

This lab will give you the chance to refresh all of your comp 151 skills.

Due: Feb 10th at 11:55pm

Compiling:

You can use whatever you want to use to build your program. I will be using Java 7, which is also installed on lab computers so if your program works for Java 7, it works

Program Requirements:

Write a program that will

• open the file data.txt (get the file from the website here).

• Read each line into your program.

• The lines go together in groups for four.

• The first line in the group is the language's current ranking. It should be an integer
• The next line in the group is the language's ranking last year at this time. It is also an integer
• The third line in the group is the programming language name. It is a string.
• The forth line in the group is the programming language's mind share percentage
• make an object to hold those four pieces of data
• put those objects into a collection (array or ArrayList)
• loop and ask the user which they want to do (for those who did sorting in CS1)
• sort on this years ranking
• sort on last years ranking
• print the list
• quit
• or
  
• loop and ask the user which they want to do (for those who did not do sorting in CS1)
• look up item based on this years ranking
  
• look up item based on last years ranking (handle out of range gracefully.)
  
• print the list
• quit
• do this loop till the user selects quit.
  

• your name
• a  brief (one paragraph) description of how you implemented the project
• anything that is left undone in the project.
