Q, Haskell.

I need to define function encode and decode. Details about the functions are provided in code.

-- | encode
--
-- Given a string, return a list of encoded values of type (Int,Char)
--
-- >>> encode ['a','a','a','a','b','c','c','a','a','d','e','e','e','e']
-- [(4,'a'),(1,'b'),(2,'c'),(2,'a'),(1,'d'),(4,'e')]
--
-- >>> encode "hello"
-- [(1,'h'),(1,'e'),(2,'l'),(1,'o')]
--
-- >>> encode []
-- []
--
encode :: String -> [(Int,Char)]
encode = undefined

-- | decode
--
-- Given a list of encoded values of type (Int,Char), generate a string corresponding to
-- this encoding.
--
-- If the first element of any pair in the list is equal to zero or negative, 
-- skip the corresponding character in the output string, 
-- while still providing decodings for the remaining characters.
-- 
--
-- >>> decode [(4,'a'),(1,'b'),(2,'c'),(2,'a'),(1,'d'),(4,'e')]
-- "aaaabccaadeeee"
--
-- >>> decode []
-- ""
--
-- >>> decode [(-4,'a')]
-- ""
--
-- >>> decode [(3,'c'),(-4,'a'),(5,'b')]
-- "cccbbbbb"
--
-- >>>decode [(3,'c'),(0,'a'),(5,'b')]
-- "cccbbbbb"
--
-- prop> \x -> x == decode (encode x)
-- 
decode :: [(Int,Char)] -> String
decode = undefined

You need to create a Java class library to support a program to simulate a Point- of-Sale (POS) system.

General Requirements:

• You should create your programs with good programming style and form using proper blank spaces, indentation and braces to make your code easy to read and understand;

• You should create identifiers with sensible names;

• You should make comments to describe your code segments where they are necessary for

  readers to understand what your code intends to achieve.

• Logical structures and statements are properly used for specific purposes.

• Program Requirements

0. You create three classes: ProductPrices, ShoppingCart and CashRegister in the filePOSLib.java to support a POS system implemented in the program POSmain.java, which is provided.

   The POSmain program takes three file names from command line arguments. The first file contains a list of products and their prices; the second and third files are lists of items in two shopping carts of two customers. The POSmain program should first read the price file, then read each of the cart files to load a list of items in a shopping cart and store them in a ShoppingCartobjects. The price file may contain a variable number of products and the cart files may contain a variable number of items.

   POSmain then will create a CashRegister object by passing the price list to it. The POSmainprogram then will use the CashRegister object to scan items in a cart and print a receipt for each shopping cart one by one. At last, POSmain will use the CashRegister object to print a report for the day.

   The three classes you will create are described in the following UML design class diagrams. You must implement all specified fields and methods in the classes. You are free to add private fields and methods to CashRegister class if appropriate.

ProductPrices

-products: ArrayList<String>
-prices: ArrayList<Double>

+put(String product, double price)
+get(String product): double

• The put method will store the price for the product in the products and prices fields, respectively;

• The get method will return the price for the product.

ShoppingCart

-items: ArrayList<String>

+addItem(String): void
+getAllItems(): ArrayList<String>

• The addItem method will add the product to the shopping cart;

• The getAllItems method will return all items in the shopping cart.

CashRegister

-productPrices: ProductPrices
......

+CashRegister(ProductPrices)
+scanAllItemsInCart(ShoppingCart): void
+printReceipt(): void
+printReportForTheDay(): void
......

• The constructor will initialise the CashRegister object with the product prices;

• The scanAllItemsInCart will examine all items in the shopping cart and prepare to

  print the receipt for the shopping cart and report for the day;

• The printReceipt method will print the product name, price, quantity, subtotal, and

  total purchase for a shopping cart in the alphabetical order of the product names. Refer to the Testing section for the receipt format;

• • The printReportForTheDay method will print a report for the day in the alphabetical order of the product names for the cash register. Refer to the Testing section for the report format.

• You need to understand the POSmain program and observe the sample output in the Testing section to understand more how the program will work with the classes.

The academic, inventory, and financial information at the CSE (Computer Science and Engineering) department of a certain institute was being carried out manually by two office clerks, a store keeper, and two attendants. The department has a student strength of 500 and a teacher strength of 30. The head of the department (HoD) wants to automate the office work. Considering the low budget that he has at his disposal, he entrusted the work to a team of student volunteers. For requirements gathering, a member of the team who was responsible for requirements analysis and specification (analyst) was first briefed by the HoD about the specific activities to be automated. The HoD mentioned that three main aspects of the office work needs to be automated—stores-related activities, student grading activities, and student leave management activities. It was necessary for the analyst to meet the other categories of users. The HoD introduced the analyst (a student) to the office staff. The analyst first discussed with the two clerks regarding their specific responsibilities (tasks) that were required to be automated. For each task, they asked the clerks to brief them about the steps through which these are carried out. The analyst also enquired about the various scenarios that might arise for each task. The analyst collected all types of forms that were being used by the student and the staff of the department to register various types of information with the office (e.g. student course registration, course grading) or requests for some specific service (e.g. issue of items from store). He also collected samples of various types of documents (outputs) the clerks were preparing. Some of these had specific printed forms that the clerks filled up manually, and others were entered using a spreadsheet, and then printed out on a laser printer. Fo r each output form, the analyst consulted the clerks regarding how these different entries are generated from the input data. The analyst met the store keeper and enquired about the material issue procedures, store ledger entry procedures, and the procedures for raising indents on various vendors. He also collected copies of all the relevant forms that were being used by the store keeper. The analyst also interviewed the student and faculty representatives. Since it was needed to automate the existing activities of an working office, the analyst could without much difficulty obtain the exact formats of the input data, output data, and the precise description of the existing office procedures.

1. Draw use case and class diagram.

2. Write 5 functional and non-functional requirements.

When multimedia developers produce Bitmapped Images, they must consider that a bitmapped image is device-dependent. For that reason, they often need to produce multiple bitmapped images that have different spatial resolutions based on their intended use. For example, they produce a bitmapped image to be printed, and reduce its spatial resolution to be displayed on monitors.

What does it mean to say that a bitmapped image is device-dependent? Explain why different resolutions of bitmapped images are needed for different devices such as monitors and printers.
