Chapter 8, Problem 7PP
Modify the Student class in Listing 8.2 so that it implements the comparable interface. Define the compareTo method to order Student objects based on the value in studentNumber. In a main method create an array of at least five Student objects, sort them using Arrays.sort, and output the students. They should be listed by ascending student number Next, modify the compareTo method so it orders Student objects based on the lexicographic ordering of the name variable. Without modification to the main method, the

Complete the Course class by implementing the courseSize() method, which returns the total number of students in the course.
Given classes:
Class LabProgram contains the main method for testing the program.
Class Course represents a course, which contains an ArrayList of Student objects as a course roster. (Type your code in here.)
Class Student represents a classroom student, which has three fields: first name, last name, and GPA.
Ex. For the following students:
Henry Bendel 3.6 Johnny Min 2.9
the output is:
Course size: 2
public class LabProgram { public static void main (String [] args) { Course course = new Course(); // Example students for testing course.addStudent(new Student("Henry", "Bendel", 3.6)); course.addStudent(new Student("Johnny", "Min", 2.9)); System.out.println("Course size: " + course.courseSize()); } }
public class Student {
private String first; // first name private String last; // last name private…
Part 2: Sorting the WorkOrders via dates
Another error that will still be showing is that there is not Comparable/compareTo() method setup on the WorkOrder class file. That is something you need to fix and code. Implement the use of the Comparable interface and add the compareTo() method to the WorkOrder class.
The compareTo() method will take a little work here. We are going to compare via the date of the work order. The dates of the WorkOrder are saved in a MM-DD-YYYY format. There is a dash '-' in between each part of the date. You will need to split both the current object's date and the date sent through the compareTo() parameters.
You will have three things to compare against. You first need to check the year. If the years are the same value then you need to go another step to check the months, otherwise you compare them with less than or greater than and return the corresponding value. If you have to check the months it would be the same for years. If the months are the same you…
This is the question I am stuck on -
A. Create a CollegeCourse class. The class contains fields for the course ID (for example, CIS 210), credit hours (for example, 3), and a letter grade (for example, A). Include get and set methods for each field. Create a Student class containing an ID number and an array of five CollegeCourse objects.
Create a get and set method for the Student ID number. Also create a get method that returns one of the Student’s CollegeCourses; the method takes an integer argument and returns the CollegeCourse in that position (0 through 4). Next, create a set method that sets the value of one of the Student’s CollegeCourse objects; the method takes two arguments—a CollegeCourse and an integer representing the CollegeCourse’s position (0 through 4).
B. Write an application that prompts a professor to enter grades for five different courses each for 10 students. Prompt the professor to enter data for one student at a time, including student ID and course data for…

The method accepts an array of integer values as a parameter, and returns the value in the middle of the array. For instance, if an array contains five elements, then the third element would be the middle element to be returned. However, if the array contains six elements, both the third and fourth values could be considered to be the middle elements. In this case, only return the first middle value, namely, the third element of the array. Complete the method middleValue, and test the correctness of your method in main(). Particularly, you should create two arrays (arbitrary values), one array with odd length, and the other with even length, and print out the middle values of these two arrays.arrow_forward1Declare an array to store objects of the class defined by the UML above.
