Lab must be completed and reviewed by Peer Instructor on Tuesday, Sept 2 during lab class and no later than the first 10 minutes of lab class on Thurs, Sept 4.

Description

In this lab you'll create a new Java program that will generate the output specified below.

Task 1 - Prepare to create your own 1st Java program.

• You may want to look at the Java programs from Lab 2 to remind you of the structure required. In fact, you can even copy a program, rename it, and use it to write this program.

Task 2 - Create the class and method headers

• The class name should be lab3 (so it will have to be saved in a file named what?)
• Since there will be only one method, what should the name be?
• Make sure there's a comment above the method describing what it does.

Task 3 - Build the comment (banner) at the top of the program.

• Remember to include your name, the section and course number, the assignment (lab3), and a description of what the program will do.
• Use the // or /* symbols to denote your comment.

Task 4 - Create some variable declarations.

In your program, declare 7 variables:

• three int variables (larry, moe & curly) - initial values should be set to 2, 4, & 6,
• one char variable (letter) - initial value should be set to 'X',
• one boolean variable (test) - initial value should be set to true
• two double variables (abbott & costello) - initial values should be set to 1.5 & 2.63

Task 5 - Create the print and assignment statements necessary to complete the lab.

• First, print some header lines. They should look like this: (use tabs in front of your name)

Lab 3      Your name
----      ---------

• Use the println method from the System.out object to output a string concatenated with the value of each of the 7 variables.

Example: System.out.println("larry's value is " + larry);

would produce the output: larry's value is 2

• Output a blank line.
• Output the sum of larry, moe and curly on a line, along with a descriptive label.
• Output another blank line.
• Output the sum of abbott and costello on a line, along with a descriptive label.
• Output another blank line.
• Output the concatenation of all 7 of the variable's values on one line. No spaces necessary.
  Example (these are not the correct values): 3423false21.02.0

Task 6 - Compile and execute the program.

Completion Requirements

Once you've completed the lab, you should show the Peer Instructor that you have completed:
-- Run the lab3 program,
-- the PI will compare the specified output to your output.
-- then use PFE to show the lab3.java file to the PI, your comments and code structure will be checked.
