COMPUTER PROGRAMMING UNIT TEST: CHAPTERS 1-4
Note: It matters whether:
a) it’s in upper or lower case;
b) whether there is a pair of parentheses;
c) whether there is a semicolon (;) at the end;
d) whether your answer includes if ( … ) or if the answer doesn’t ask for that;
e) In short, because you’re instructing a machine, not a human, any error in the language will cause your program not
to run as intended.
Understand those seemingly esoteric differences. They may mean the difference between being able to use the language
and not.

WRITING CODE. (50 POINTS TOTAL)
1.
A new world called BackYard has been created for a game. There are 3 actors: Dog, Cat, and Mouse.

populateWorld();
}
public void populateWorld()
{
addObject( new Cat(), 300, 300);
}
}
B.
Complete the code for the following methods of the Mouse class. Add these to the Mouse’s act method.
1.
turnAtFence – the Mouse turns if he gets to the edge of the fenced in yard.
2.
randomRun – the Mouse randomly runs about the yard changing direction 10% of the time.
public class Mouse extends Animal

{
move();
turnAtFence();
randomRun();
}
public void randomRun()
{
public void turnAtFence()
{
}
}
C.
