By the end of this project you should be able to do the following:

• Handle exceptions that can occur in your program using a try-catch statement
• Throw exceptions in your program

Directions:

Dont forget to add your Javadoc comments for your classes, constructor, and methods in this activity.

For this assignment, you will be creating two classes: Division and DivisionDriver

Division: methods

• Division has two public static methods:
  • intDivide: takes two int parameters (a numerator and denominator), performs integer division, and returns the int result of dividing the numerator by the denominator.
  • decimalDivide: takes two int parameters (a numerator and denominator), performs floating point division (youll have to use casting), and returns the result of dividing the numerator by the denominator.

• Test your methods in the Interactions pane:

Division.intDivide(10, 3)

3

Division.decimalDivide(10, 3)

3.3333333333333335

DivisionDriver

• DivisionDriver contains a main method only. The program will get a numerator and denominator from the user and print the integer division and decimal division result.
• Create a dialog box that will get the numerator and denominator as a String (youll have to import the JOptionPane class in the javax.swing package):
• Convert each to an integer value using the static parseInt method in the Integer class:
• Create a String object to hold the result of the division:
• Print the result in a dialog box:
• Test your method by running the driver program with numerator 19 and denominator 5:
• Now try entering an invalid number in the dialogs (five and ten):

Your program should generate a run-time error in the form of a NumberFormatException exception:

-jGRASP exec: java DivisionDriver

Exception in thread main java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: five at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:65) at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:580) at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:615) at DivisionDriver.main(DivisionDriver.java:9)

-jGRASP wedge: exit code for process is 1.

-jGRASP: operation complete.

• The exception occurs when the parseInt method tries to convert the String five to an integer. The Java API listing for parseInt lists the exception that it might throw.
• Use a try-catch statement to catch the exception and tell the user what went wrong without creating a run-time error:
• Try entering invalid values five and ten once more for numerator and denominator once more. You should now get the following error:

Exception Throwing

• Try the following in the interactions pane:

Division.intDivide(10, 0)

java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero

• Try to run your driver program with the numerator 10 and denominator 0:

-jGRASP exec: java DivisionDriver

Exception in thread main java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero at Division.intDivide(Division.java:7) at DivisionDriver.main(DivisionDriver.java:12)

-jGRASP wedge: exit code for process is 1.

-jGRASP: operation complete.

• The exception is generated in the intDivide method and not caught/handled, so it is propagated to main where it is also not caught/handled. Next we want to catch the exception in the intDivide method so that it will not be propagated to the main method.
• In your intDivide method, add code that will return 0 if an ArithmeticException occurs and the division result otherwise:

Run DivisionDriver with inputs 10 and 0. The result should be 0 for integer division:

Suppose that you do not want users to be able to divide by 0 in your decimalDivide method.

Division.decimalDivide(10, 0)

Infinity

The IllegalArgumentException in the Java API can be thrown if a particular argument (parameter) to a method is not allowed:

http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/IllegalArgumentException.html

• In your decimalDivide method, throw an IllegalArgumentException if the denominator is zero:

if (denom == 0) {

throw new IllegalArgumentException(The denominator

+ cannot be zero.);

}

• Test your method again in interactions. You should now see the exception:

Division.decimalDivide(10, 0) java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The denominator cannot be zero.

• In your main method, add another catch statement to catch the exception that is thrown by the decimalDivide method. This time, print the exception text itself (stored by variable errorMessage):
• Now try dividing by 0 in your program. You will get the following error message instead of a run-time error:

• Run Checkstyle on each of your files and make any necessary corrections indicated by audit errors.
