FERRY TICKETING SYSTEM

A small ferry company has just purchased a computer for its new automated ticketing system. The company director has asked you to design the new system to assign seats for each trip of the 50-seater ferry, which covers the route from Penang to Langkawi and back daily. The upper deck of the ferry is reserved for business class passengers and can accommodate 10 people. The main deck of the ferry, the economy class can accommodate 40 people. Assume the company has at least 8 ferries - each with a different Ferry ID, which travel at one-hour intervals from 10 am to 5 pm daily.

SECTION A : BASIC REQUIREMENTS OF THE SYSTEM

1. Main Menu
Your initial program design should display the following menu alternatives:

FERRY TICKETING SYSTEM
P – to Purchase Ticket
V –to View Seating Arrangement
Q – to Quit the system

2. Submenu
The following submenu will be displayed when P is selected:

PURCHASING MODULE
B – to purchase ticket for Business class
E – to purchase ticket for Economy class
M – to return to Main Menu

3. Assigning Seats
If the person types B, then your program should assign a seat in the business class (seats 1-10). If the person types E, then your program should assign a seat in the economy class (seats 11 - 50).

4. Boarding Ticket
Your program should then print a boarding ticket indicating the person’s name, seat number, whether it is in the business or economy class of the ferry, Date and time of departure, Source and Destination of the trip and Ferry ID.
5. Seating Chart
Use single-scripted array to represent the seating chart of the ferry, indicating the availability of the seats within each trip of the ferry. Initialize all the elements of the array to 0 to indicate that all seats are empty. As each seat is assigned, set the corresponding elements of the array to 1 to indicate that the seat is no longer available. Your program should never assign a seat that has already been assigned.

The Ferry ID will be requested when V is selected from the main menu and the seating arrangement for that ferry will be displayed in a tabular form, e.g.

************************************************** ***********
* Ferry ID : 007 Date: 19 Sept 2005 *
************************************************** ***********
* BUSINESS CLASS *
************************************************** ***********
* 1 * 1 * 1 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********
* 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********
* ECONOMY CLASS *
************************************************** ***********
* 1 * 1 * 1 * 1 * 1 *
************************************************** ***********
* 1 * 1 * 1 * 1 * 1 *
************************************************** ***********
* 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********
* 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********
* 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********
* 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********
* 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********
* 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 *
************************************************** ***********

6. Alternative seating
When the business class is full, your program should ask the person if it is acceptable to be placed in the economy class (and vice versa). If yes, then make the appropriate seat assignment. If no, then print the message “Next trip leaves in 1 hour”.


INSTRUCTIONS

This is a group assignment. Each group should consist of between 2 – 3 members only. Upon submission of your assignment, you would be required to present your assignment at a date and time specified by your module lecturer.

Each team member is required to contribute towards all sections of the assignment, present and explain his or her contribution of the work done. Each team member should also be able to answer questions posed with regards to the project and / or subject matter.

DELIVERABLES

You are required to submit:
• A softcopy of the program coded in Java – submitted on a CD. The program should include the following:
• Basic programming concepts such as displaying and reading of inputs, displaying of outputs, declaration of variables and assignment of values, comments – to explain various parts of the program, etc.
• Using selection control structures and iteration structures, arrays,
• Object-oriented concepts such as creation / use of classes / objects, inheritance, constructors
• Use of exception handling, packages

• Documentation of the system, that incorporates basic documentation standards such as header and footer, page numbering and which includes
• Cover page
• Table of contents
• Workload matrix to indicate the contribution of each individual for each required component (shown in %age form) and signed off by each team member
• Design of the program – using pseudo code or flowcharts – which adheres to the basic requirements listed above
• Source code of the program in Java
• Sample outputs when the program is executed with some explanation of the outputs / sections of the program
• Additional features which have been incorporated in the solution in terms of design and Java
• Assumptions
• References

What code do you have so far and where exactly are you stuck?

// Json

y i cant use my jcretor???

If you could ask clear questions in normal English, it would help...

If you get any error messages, copy and paste them here.

that is what i did...
and my JCreator cannot run this code....
and i need help to tell me how to make it as a do while condition....

i'm confused too haha, pasting your assignment specs here won't do~

ya true...wat 2 do then....

which ide are you using

not sure ....jus doin sumting
ur done this b4???

oopg. yeah.
hmm, you using netbeans,eclipse or what?

JCreator...can u help??? how to do the infinite loop??

LOL oh ok i din check the previous posts out. let me see

mm....10x....

ok paste the displayed errors shown in jcreator when you run that piece of code

import java.util.Scanner;
public class FerryTicketingSystem {

public static void main(String[] args) {
char selection;
Scanner input = new scanner.toUpperCase.();
displayMenu();
System.out.println("What is your selection? ");
selection = input.next().charAt(0);
switch(selection)
{


case 'P':
subMenu();
char suboption;
System.out.println("Make a class selection");
suboption = input.next().charAt(0);
switch(suboption)


case 'V':
seatingArangement();
char seating;
seating = new int (50);
switch(seating)



{
case 'B':

break;
case 'E':

break;
case 'M':
displayMenu();
break;
default:
System.out.println("Wrong selection! Please enter the correct choice.");
}
break;
case 'Q':
System.out.println("Good bye, Have a nice day!!");
System.exit(0);
break;
default:
System.out.println("Wrong selection!");
break;
}
}


public static void displayMenu()


{
System.out.println("****************************** ***************");
System.out.println("* FERRY TICKETING SYSTEM *");
System.out.println("* *MAIN MENU* *");
System.out.println("* Select P for purchasing *");
System.out.println("* Select v for view seatings *");
System.out.println("* Select Q to quit the system *");
System.out.println("****************************** ***************");
}


public static void subMenu()
{
System.out.println("****************************** ***************");
System.out.println("* FERRY TICKETING SYSTEM *");
System.out.println("* *SUB MENU* *");
System.out.println("* Select B for Business Class *");
System.out.println("* Select E for Economic Class *");
System.out.println("* Select M for Main Menu *");
System.out.println("****************************** ***************");
}

}

ok , run this. copy and paste what is shown on the console.
