Document Summary

Answer all of the following questions, and upload your completed work here. Answer the following questions (250 words max/question): explain the concept of program-data independence, and explain how it is achieved in the database approach. In file processing system, the file descriptions are stored within each database application program that accesses a given file. Since the program contains a detailed file description for these files, any change occur to a file structure requires changes to the file descriptions for all programs that access the file. The program-data independence is the separation of these data descriptions from the application programs that use the data. This can be achieved by storing the data descriptions in a central location called repository. This property of data(cid:271)ase s(cid:455)ste(cid:373)s allo(cid:449)s a(cid:374) orga(cid:374)izatio(cid:374) s data to (cid:272)ha(cid:374)ge a(cid:374)d de(cid:448)elop gradually within limits without changing the application programs that process the data. Older data models and database management software was not built on program-data independence concept.

9. Write a method with the following header public static void replace (String oldFile, string newfile, char oldChar, char newChar) throws IOException This method opens the file whose name is given by the String parameter oldFile (the input file) for reading, and opens the file whose name is given by the string parameter newlile (the output file) for writing. It then reads every lime in the input file. For each line, it creates a new line identical to the original line, creept for the fact that all occurrences of char oldchar in the original String have been replaced by occurrences of char newchar in the new line. When the new line has been properly created, it write it to the output file. Once all the lines in the input file have been read and a corresponding line has been written to the output file, the method clases both files. Additional notes: • You MAY assume that none of the parameters this method accepts are null; in other words, your method does not have to handle the case where one or more of the parameters are null. You MAY assume that all the 10-related classes have already heen imported properly . Finally, because the replace() method is specified to throw an exception object of type TORxception, you MAY assume that I/O related problems will occur while reading from the input file or writing to the output file. In other words, your method DOES NOT have to check that no such problems occur, and DOES NOT have to manage Texceptions using try-catch blocks.

9. Finally, you should write a program MontrealMaps which will suggest a path to go along the metro to get from one place to another. The only required method for MontrealMaps is a main method but of course you are allowed to write others. Your program should do the following. For any library methods that you use, make sure that you are properly importing things and handling any exceptions they may throw. (10 points) • Using an appropriate library method, you should create a Subway System object. If this method fails to initialize, you should print the message Error, not enough funding. • Use a Scanner and print statements to read the current x and y position of the user. • Use a Scanner and print statements to read the x and y position that the user wants to go to. . Find the nearest Metro Station to both the start position of the user and his final destination. • If the 2 metro stations have the same name (i.e. are the same metro station) then print It is fastest to walk there. • Otherwise, call the method findPath from the previous part to find a path from these 2 metro stations. . If the method returns null, then print Sorry, there is no path on the metro, you'll have to walk • Otherwise, print the path using the metro using the method printPath defined in the MapUtilities class in the appendix.
