Description
Speeding Tickets
There are two types of speeding tickets in Maryland – “Payable” and “Must Appear”. “Payable” tickets can be paid by mail, in person or online. “Must Appear” tickets require the violator to appear at the County Court House in addition to paying a fine.
| Assignment Description |
The DMV has asked you to build an application that will calculate the fees for a speeding tickets and then print a notice that will be mailed to the violator.
| Concepts tested by this assignment |
- A driver and a utility class
- UML diagram, class diagrams
- Java fundamentals, including decision structures, loops
- Constructors, Overloaded constructors
- toString method
- Formatting output with DecimalFormat
- Random Class
- Java objects & classes
- Following a Javadoc
| Classes |
Data Element Class – Ticket
- Student Created
- Include private instance variables to store information needed for a ticket. Select the correct data types for each one. The speed and speed limit will be integers and that the school zone and work zone will be Boolean.
- A constructor that takes the name, speed, speed limit, school zone and work zone.
- Another constructor that takes the name, speed and speed limit. The school zone and work zone will be set to false.
- Getters and setters for the private instance variables.
- A public method calculateFine which calculates and returns the fine (as a double) based on the table in Assignment Details.
- A public method printNotice which returns a String with the contents of the Notice. Make sure that your fine is formatted in decimal format. Please see the Assignment Details for exact wording/format. Use your name instead of Professor Kartchner.
- A private method generateTicketNum which randomly generates a ticket number between 100000 and 999999 inclusively.
- A private method generateCourtDate which randomly generates a day between 1 and 31 inclusively. All court dates will take place in October 2018.
- A private method ticketType which returns a string of either “Payable” or “Must Appear” based on the table in Assignment Details.
- A toString method that returns a string representation of a Ticket, including the ticket number and ticket type. No specific format required.
- The method headers must match the Javadoc provided for you for the Ticket class.
Driver Class – TicketDriver
- Student created
- This is the driver class for Ticket that contains a main method.
- The driver is responsible to:
- print a header
- ask the user for information about a ticket.
- Print out the notice for that ticket using the methods from the Ticket class.
- Allow user to add another ticket.
- When user is finished entering tickets, prints “Exiting the Ticket Manager”
- Refer to the program sample run for more clarification.
- Data Validation. The following data must be validated:
- Speed > 0
- Speed Limit >0 and <= 80
- Add any necessary methods to modularize your code.
GUI Driver Class – TicketGUIDriver
- Provided
- Uses methods of the ticket class
- Use as a way to test your cacluateFine and printNotice methods
- Introduction to a Graphical User Interface (GUI) driver
- Include the dmv.jpg in the same package as your .java files for the image to display.
Test Class – TicketTestDriver
- Provided
- This is the driver class for testing the methods of the Ticket class. This has been given to you to help you test the methods of your Ticket class.
