Textbook Question
Chapter 5.6, Problem 22SC
Consider this method that prints a page number on the left or right side of a page:
if (page % 2 == 0) { System.out.println(page); }
else { System.out.println(" " + page); }
Introduce a method with return type boolean to make the condition in the if statement easier to understand.

Students have asked these similar questions
canMove(int x, int y, int destX, int destY, Side s): This method returns true if the player of color s can move the piece at coordinates (x,y) can move to coordinates (destX, destY) on the board in its current state. This means that here you do need to consider this piece’s interaction with other pieces on the board. Conditions for this method to return false are given in the code.
public boolean canMove(int x, int y, int destX, int destY, Side s){
/* TODO write a method that checks if a piece at coordinates x,y can move to coordinates destX,destY
Conditions for false:
- Origin or destination coordinates are outside the board
- Piece at origin is null
- If source and destination coordinates are the same
- Piece at origin is not of the same side as s
- You can check this using piece.getSide()
- Piece cannot move to the destination by piece movement rules
- You should check this using Piece.canMove(destX,…
Exercise 2:
The intersection method computes the intersection of two rectangles-
that is, the rectangle that would be formed by two overlapping rectangles if
they were drawn, as shown at right. You call this method as follows:
Rectangle r3 = r1.intersection (r2);
Write a program IntersectionPrinter that constructs two rectangle
objects, prints them as described in Exercise 1, and then prints the rectangle
Intersection
object that describes the intersection. Then the program should print the result
of the intersection method when the rectangles do not overlap. Add a comment to your program
that explains how you can tell whether the resulting rectangle is empty.
The random class implements a random number generator, which produces sequences of numbers
that appear to be random. To generate random integers, you construct an object of the Random class,
and then apply the nextInt (50) gives you a random number between 0 and 49.
Use the Random class to construct the two rectangle objects.
1. Write the following method that returns the intersecting point between two lines (p1, p2) and (p3, p4):
public static Point 2D getIntersecting Point (
Point 2D pl, Point 2D p2, Point 2D p3, Point2D p4);
The method returns null if the two lines are parallel. Write a test program that prompts the user to enter
three points and displays the center point. Here is a sample run. (Hint: for finding the intersecting point
between two lines, see Programming Exercise 8.31.)
Enter x1, yl, x2, y2, x3, y3, x4, y4: 225 -1.0 4.0 2.0 -1.0 -2.0
The intersecting point is at (2.88889, 1.1111)
The two lines are parallel

- Create a method where a goblin will attack a zombie as long as the zombie has no health, otherwise the zombie is already dead. If the zombie has 0 or less health, the attack method should add 10 health to the zombie, bringing them closer to being alive so that they will be dead it should then return the zombies health. If the health of the zombie is positive the attack method should return "Zombie is alive, therefore it is not a zombie!". NOTE: This problem statement is extremely vague.

If the move would make the figure leave the board, cancel the move: the figure remains where it was, the state of the board doesn’t change at all, and the method immediately returns 0.
