    1. Grading

Lab Goals:

  1. Review Java text files IO. a. Be able to write a Java program that reads and writes text files.
  2. Review the SafeInput Library, developed in Computer Programming I (Tom Wulf’s section)
  3. Learn more about you.

Final Result:

You will be submitting a git repository with the following naming convention, 1-meet-and-greet-<your github username>, (i.e., 1-meet-and-greet-Ygilany). The repository contains:

  1. one Java Project with the following files:
  2. PortfolioGenerator.java (has a main method)
  3. PersonReader.java (has a main method)
  4. SafeInput.java (The source file is available with the assignment instructions)
  5. The output text file from the PortfolioGenerator program.
  6. a modified README.md file that includes your self-assessment

Part 1: Writing to a text file:

  1. Create a program (java main class) called PortfolioGenerator.java.
  2. Complete the implementation of the getString and getArrayOfStrings functions in the SafeInput Library.
  3. For Extra Credit: Create a getEmail function that will validate the user Input. (Use Regular Expressions) Example
  4. The program will prompt the user (namely, you) to enter the following information
    1. Name
    2. Email
    3. Personal Background
    4. Programming Languages
      1. You don’t know ahead of time how many languages the user knows. So, use an ArrayList to store the records.
      2. Once the user has indicated that they’ve entered all their languages, move on to the next question.
    5. Achievements and interests you would like to share
      1. Same as above, you don’t know how many achievements the user will share so use an ArrayList Here as well.
      2. Once the user has indicated that they’ve entered all their achievements, export a text file that looks like the screenshot attached.
  5. Use the SafeInput Library as needed to validate the user inputs; Block and Repeat until the user gets the input correct, do not terminate the script.
  6. Run the application and answer the question (I want to learn more about YOU through this assignment)

Grading

  • The program runs with no errors.
  • The program uses ArrayLists.
  • The program generates the text file in the above format.
  • Correct implementation of the getString() function
  • Correct implementation of the getArrayOfStrings() function
  • (1 EXTRA POINTS ⭐️): If you Center your name as in the screenshot
  • (2 EXTRA POINTS 🌟): Correct Implementation of the getEmailAddress() function in the SafeInput Library.

Part 2: Reading from a file:

  1. Create a program (Java main class) called PersonReader.java.
  2. Use the JFileChooser to prompt the user to select the people.txt file (The file is available on the root directory of the project)
  3. Use the String.format method to create a neatly formatted columnar display of the data records.
