Constructor Detail

ConverterFrame

public ConverterFrame(int bases,
                      int powers,
                      javax.swing.JApplet applet)

Constructor notes : Parameters for the test are set as : noOfCols (number of columns) ie n columns for powers, plus one for labelling

Method Detail

displayAnswer

protected void displayAnswer()

Displays in the outPut model two rows to demonstrate the answer. The first row is the power calculations. The second row is the binary representation of the number.

getBase

public int getBase()

Returns the base to be used in this question

getCols

public int getCols()

Returns the number of columns required to display question and output

getPower

public int getPower()

Returns the power to be used in this question

getQuestion

public int getQuestion()

Returns the integer to be converted to binary in this question

getValue

public java.lang.String getValue(int row,
                                 int col)

Used for external classes to retrieve information from the students answer table.

makeDialog

protected void makeDialog(java.lang.String title,
                          java.lang.String message,
                          int messageType,
                          int optionType)

Creates a JOptionPane with user specified message.

mkUI

public java.awt.Container mkUI()

Builds User Interface on a Container Returns Container to be placed onto the required contentPane.

nextNumber

protected void nextNumber()

Resets all table models to clear. Generates a new random number and sets this number as the exercise to the student. The range of the random number is [0... (base x power)-1]

setUpIntegerEditor

protected void setUpIntegerEditor(javax.swing.JTable table)

Code modified from Sun Microsystems website. Ensures only String 0's or 1's are entered into table Strings must be used to allow the initial display for certain cells to be blank. Use of Integers requires an initial value of 0 to be displayed
