Trace the execution of the following program assuming the input stream contains the numbers 10, 3, and 14.3. Use a table that shows the value of each variable at each step. Also show the output (exactly as it would be printed). // FILE: Trace.java // PURPOSE: An exercise in tracing a program and understanding // assignment statements and expressions. import java.util.Scanner; public class Trace { public static void main (String[] args) { int one, two, three; double what; Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print ("Enter two integers: "); one = scan.nextInt(); two = scan.nextInt(); System.out.print("Enter a floating point number: "); what = scan.nextDouble(); three = 4 * one + 5 * two; two = 2 * one; System.out.println ("one " + two + ":" + three); one = 46 / 5 * 2 + 19 % 4; three = one + two; what = (what + 2.5) / 2; System.out.println (what + " is what!"); } }

Area and Circumference of a Circle
Study the program below, which uses both variables and constants: //********************************************************** // Circle.java // // Print the area of a circle with two different radii //********************************************************** public class Circle { public static void main(String[] args) { final double PI = 3.14159; int radius = 10; double area = PI * radius * radius; System.out.println("The area of a circle with radius " + radius + " is " + area); radius = 20; area = PI * radius * radius; System.out.println("The area of a circle with radius " + radius + " is " + area); } } Some things to notice: V V V V V V The first three lines inside main are declarations for PI, radius, and area. Note that the type for each is given in these lines: final double for PI, since it is a floating point constant; int for radius, since it is an integer variable, and double for area, since it will hold the product of the radius and PI, resulting in a floating point value. These first three lines also hold initializations for PI, radius, and area. These could have been done separately, but it is often convenient to assign an initial value when a variable is declared. The next line is simply a print statement that shows the area for a circle of a given radius. The next line is an assignment statement, giving variable radius the value 20. Note that this is not a declaration, so the int that was in the previous radius line does not appear here. The same memory location that used to hold the value now 10 holds the value 20we are not setting up a new memory location. Similar for the next lineno double because area was already declared. The final print statement prints the newly computed area of the circle with the new radius.
Save this program, which is in file Circle.java, into your directory and modify it as follows: 1. The circumference of a circle is two times the product of Pi and the radius. Add statements to this program so that it computes the circumference in addition to the area for both circles. You will need to do the following: V Declare a new variable to store the circumference. V Store the circumference in that variable each time you compute it. V Add two additional print statements to print your results. Be sure your results are clearly labeled.
2. When the radius of a circle doubles, what happens to its circumference and area? Do they double as well? You can determine this by dividing the second area by the first area. Unfortunately, as it is now the program overwrites the first area with the second area (same for the circumference). You need to save the first area and circumference you compute instead of overwriting them with the second set of Data Expressions(1)

computations. So you'll need two area variables and two circumference variables, which means they'll have to have different names (e.g., area1 and area2). Remember that each variable will have to be declared. Save this program, which is in file Circle2.java, into your directory and modify it as follows:
Change the names of the area and circumference variables so that they are different in the first and second calculations. Be sure that you print out whatever you just computed. V At the end of the program, compute the area change by dividing the second area by the first area. This gives you the factor by which the area grew. Store this value in an appropriately named variable (which you will have to declare). V Add a println statement to print the change in area that you just computed. V Now repeat the last two steps for the circumference. Look at the results. Is this what you expected? 3. In the program above, you showed what happened to the circumference and area of a circle when the radius went from 10 to 20. Does the same thing happen whenever the radius doubles, or were those answers just for those particular values? To figure this out, you can write a program that reads in values for the radius from the user instead of having it written into the program ("hardcoded"). Save this program, which is in file Circle3.java, into your directory and modify it as follows: V At the very top of the file, add the line import java.util.Scanner; This tells the compiler that you will be using methods from the Scanner class. In the main method create a Scanner object called scan to read from System.in. Instead of initializing the radius in the declaration, just declare it without giving it a value. Now add two statements to read in the radius from the user: V A prompt, that is, a print statement that tells the user what they are supposed to do (e.g., "Please enter a value for the radius."); V A read statement that actually reads in the value. Since we are assuming that the radius is an integer, this will use the nextInt() method of the Scanner class. When the radius gets it second value, make it be twice the original value. Compile and run your program. Does your result from above hold?

Painting a Room
File Paint.java contains the partial program below, which when complete will calculate the amount of paint needed to paint the walls of a room of the given length and width. It assumes that the paint covers 350 square feet per gallon. //*************************************************************** //File: Paint.java // //Purpose: Determine how much paint is needed to paint the walls //of a room given its length, width, and height //*************************************************************** import java.util.Scanner; public class Paint { public static void main(String[] args) { final int COVERAGE = 350; //paint covers 350 sq ft/gal //declare integers length, width, and height; //declare double totalSqFt; //declare double paintNeeded; //declare and initialize Scanner object //Prompt for and read in the length of the room //Prompt for and read in the width of the room //Prompt for and read in the height of the room //Compute the total square feet to be painted--think //about the dimensions of each wall //Compute the amount of paint needed //Print the length, width, and height of the room and the //number of gallons of paint needed.
} }
Save this file to your directory and do the following: 1. 2. Fill in the missing statements (the comments tell you where to fill in) so that the program does what it is supposed to. Compile and run the program and correct any errors. Suppose the room has doors and windows that don't need painting. Ask the user to enter the number of doors and number of windows in the room, and adjust the total square feet to be painted accordingly. Assume that each door is 20 square feet and each window is 15 square feet.
