CSX-351 ADVANCED PROGRAMMING CONCEPTS USING JAVA LABORATORY [0 0 2 1]

Objectives:

 To make the student learn the application of advanced object oriented concepts for solving problems.
 To teach the student to write programs using advanced Java features to solve the problems

1. a) Write a Java program that prompts the user for an integer and then prints out all prime numbers up to that
integer.
b) Write a Java program to multiply two given matrices.
2. a) Write a Java program that checks whether a given string is a palindrome or not. Ex: MADAM is a
palindrome.
b) Write a Java program for sorting a given list of names in ascending order.
3. Write a java program to create an abstract class named Shape that contains an empty method named number Of
Sides ( ).Provide three classes named Trapezoid, Triangle and Hexagon such that each one of the classes
extends the class Shape. Each one of the classes contains only the method number Of Sides ( ) that shows the
number of sides in the given geometrical figures.
4. a) Develop an applet that displays a simple message.
b) Develop an applet that receives an integer in one text field, and computes its factorial Value and returns it in
another text field, when the button named “Compute” is clicked.
5. Write a Java program that works as a simple calculator. Use a grid layout to arrange buttons for the digits and
for the +, -,*, % operations. Add a text field to display the result.
6. Write a Java program for handling mouse events.
7. a) Write a Java program that creates three threads. First thread displays “Good Morning” every one second, the
second thread displays “Hello” every two seconds and the third thread displays “Welcome” every three seconds.
b) Write a Java program that correctly implements producer consumer problem using the concept of inter thread
communication.
8. Write a program that creates a user interface to perform integer divisions. The user enters two numbers in the
textfields, Num1 and Num2. The division of Num1 and Num2 is displayed in the Result field when the Divide
button is clicked. If Num1 or Num2 were not an integer, the program would throw a NumberFormatException.
If Num2 were Zero, the program would throw an ArithmeticException Display the exception in a message
dialog box.
9. Write a Java program that implements a simple client/server application. The client sends data to a server. The
server receives the data, uses it to produce a result, and then sends the result back to the client. The client
displays the result on the console. For ex: The data sent from the client is the radius of a circle, and the result
produced by the server is the area of the circle. (Use java.net)
10. a) Write a java program that simulates a traffic light. The program lets the user select one of three lights: red,
yellow, or green. When a radio button is selected, the light is turned on, and only one light can be on at a time
No light is on when the program starts.
b) Write a Java program that allows the user to draw lines, rectangles and ovals.
11. Suppose that a table named Table.txt is stored in a text file. The first line in the file is the header, and the
remaining lines correspond to rows in the table. The elements are seperated by commas. Write a java program
to display the table using JTable component.
