Class rpi.goldsd.container.RandomIntSequence 

java.lang.Object

public class RandomIntSequence
extends Object
implements Sequence
The RandomIntSequence class implements the Sequence interface by providing a sequence() method that generates an enumeration of Int objects using a linear congruential method. This is not a very useful class, but rather an "excursion" as part of this project.

Constructor Index

o RandomIntSequence()

Method Index

o sequence()
Returns an enumeration of pseudo-random integer values using the linear congruential method with a default value of 25 as the seed value.
o sequence(int)
Returns an enumeration of pseudo-random integer values using the given seed value s.
o sequence(Object)
Returns an enumeration of pseudo-random integer values using the linear congruential method.

Constructors

o RandomIntSequence 
 public RandomIntSequence()

Methods

o sequence 
 public Enumeration sequence()
Returns an enumeration of pseudo-random integer values using the linear congruential method with a default value of 25 as the seed value. The hasMoreElements() method of the enumeration always returns true since the nextElement() method will always return the next Int object in the sequence.

Returns:
an enumeration of pseudo-random Int objects.
Throws: IllegalArgumentException
if the startValue argument is not of type Int.
o sequence 
 public Enumeration sequence(int s)
Returns an enumeration of pseudo-random integer values using the given seed value s.

Parameters:
s - the seed of the generated pseudo-random sequence.
Returns:
an enumeration of pseudo-random integer values using the given seed value s.
o sequence 
 public Enumeration sequence(Object startValue) throws IllegalArgumentException
Returns an enumeration of pseudo-random integer values using the linear congruential method. The hasMoreElements() method of the enumeration always returns true since the nextElement() method will always return the next Int object in the sequence.

Parameters:
startValue - the seed value used to begin the linear congruential process.
Returns:
an enumeration of pseudo-random Int objects.
Throws: IllegalArgumentException
if the startValue argument is not of type Int.
