CSCI 1321 (Principles of Algorithm Design II), Spring 2003:
Homework 3

Due:
Design due February 28, 2003, at 5pm; code due March 3, 2003, at 5pm.

Credit:
Design 20 points; code 40 points.

What you are to do

First review Dr. Lewis's Project Description. Then read the specific instructions for Assignment 3. In this assignment you are to design and begin implementing the class for your player (the thing in the game that moves around under the user's control). It will be a new class implementing Dr. Lewis's Player interface.

Completing the design step

As with Homework 2, you can continue to add to a previously-set-up Together project, or you can create a new project in a new directory and copy in the files from Homework 2. Again as with Homework 2, be sure every class you have designed, including your player class, contains Javadoc comments describing the class and its methods. Use Together to generate HTML documentation for your classes. For this assignment, it should go in subdirectory Local/HTML-Documents/PAD2Project/Assn3/Design of your Linux home directory.

Turning in your design

Send me e-mail (at bmassing@cs.trinity.edu) telling me that your design is ready to be graded. Please use a subject line that mentions the course name and the assignment number (e.g., ``cs1321 design 3'' or ``PAD2 design 3'').

Completing the code step

For this step, finish writing the code for the class you designed in the design step; also make any required changes to the classes you designed and wrote for previous assignments. As before, compile and test your code. Be sure to use the JAR file for assignment 3. When you are happy with how your code works, generate a final version of your documentation, as described above except putting the result in Local/HTML-Documents/PAD2Project/Assn3/Final.

Turning in your code

E-mail all your source code (.java files), and any additional files needed for your game (e.g., files created by the screen editor) to me at bmassing@cs.trinity.edu. You may use either of the following methods.
