实施PriorityQueue帮助

这里的典型学生,为作业的最后步骤寻求一些意见。非常感谢任何指导我正确方向的帮助或提示。

我们的部分任务是实施急诊室PriorityQueue。我坚持的部分细节如下:

  

编写一个名为PatientQueue的课程:

     

一个。默认值,无参数   构造

     

湾两种公共方法:
  一世。 public void registerPatient(Patient p)
  II。 public Patient getNextPatient()

     

℃。内部使用PriorityQueue和PatientComparator

这是我到目前为止所拥有的:

在Patient.java中:

package blah;

import java.util.Date;

public class Patient {

// data fields
protected String name;
protected int category;
protected Date timeArrived;

// accessors and mutators
public String getName() {
    return name;
}
public void setName(String nameIn) {
    this.name = nameIn;
}
public int getCategory() {
    return category;
}
public void setCategory(int categoryIn) {
    this.category = categoryIn;
}

public java.util.Date getTimeArrived() {
    return timeArrived;
}

// default constructor
public Patient() {
    this.name = "Default Name";
    this.category = 5; // unclassified Patients go to the end of the queue
    this.timeArrived = new Date();
}

// overloaded constructor
public Patient(String nameIn, int categoryIn) {
    this.name = nameIn;
    this.category = categoryIn;
    this.timeArrived = new Date();
}

} // end Patient class

在PatientComparator.java中:

package blah;

import java.util.Comparator;

public class PatientComparator implements Comparator<Patient> {

public int compare(Patient p1, Patient p2) {
    if (p1.getCategory() < p2.getCategory())
        return -1;
    if (p1.getCategory() > p2.getCategory())
        return 1;
    else { if (p1.getTimeArrived().before(p2.getTimeArrived()))
        return -1;
           if (p1.getTimeArrived().after(p2.getTimeArrived()))
        return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}

} // end PatientComparator class

在PatientQueue.java中:

package blah;

import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.PriorityQueue;

public class PatientQueue extends PriorityQueue<Patient> {

// default constructor
public PatientQueue() {

}

public void registerPatient(Patient p) {
            //NEED HELP IN THIS PART//
} // end registerPatient method

public Patient getNextPatient() {
    return (Patient)this.poll();
} // end getNextPatient method

} // end PatientQueue class

最后,在驱动程序EmergencyRoomSimulator.java中:     包裹

import java.util.Random; 

public class EmergencyRoomSimulator { 

private static final int WAIT_LIMIT = 3000; // 1000 = 1 second 

private PatientQueue pq = new PatientQueue(); 

private void t() { 
    try {  Thread.sleep(new Random().nextInt(WAIT_LIMIT));
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
    } 
} // end t method

private void patientArrives(Patient p) { 
    pq.registerPatient(p); 
    System.out.println(" ARRIVAL: " + p.getName()); 
    System.out.println(" time arrived: " + p.getTimeArrived()); 
    System.out.println(" category: " + p.getCategory()); 
    System.out.println("------------------------------------"); 
    t(); 
} // end patientArrives method

private void doctorVisits() { 
    Patient p = pq.getNextPatient(); 
    System.out.println(" VISIT: " + p.getName()); 
    System.out.println(" time arrived: " + p.getTimeArrived()); 
    System.out.println(" category: " + p.getCategory()); 
    System.out.println("------------------------------------"); 
    t(); 
} // end doctorVisits method

private void simulate() { 
    System.out.println("------------------------------------"); 
    System.out.println("ER OPEN"); 
    System.out.println("------------------------------------"); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("John Paul Jones", 3)); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("Thomas Paine", 1)); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("Joseph Brant", 2)); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("Ethan Allen", 2)); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("Henry Knox", 4)); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("Patrick Henry", 2)); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("Mary Draper", 1)); 
    patientArrives(new Patient("Samuel Adams", 3)); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    doctorVisits(); 
    System.out.println("------------------------------------"); 
    System.out.println("ER CLOSED"); 
    System.out.println("------------------------------------"); 
} // end simulate method

public static void main(String[] args) { 
    EmergencyRoomSimulator er = new EmergencyRoomSimulator(); 
    er.simulate(); 
} // end main 

} // end class

我得到的错误是:

  

线程“main”中的异常java.lang.NullPointerException

在主要的第一次doctorVisits()通话中。我知道我错过了在列表中实际添加和/或删除对象的正确方法,但是我无法看到PatientQueue类中需要发生什么来实际触发{{1}用于添加或“获取”下一位患者。

同样,非常感谢任何建议。谢谢!

您的PatientQueue未使用PatientComparator。你应该使用超类的构造函数来注册它。

您的PatientQueue不会将Patient个对象添加到队列中。在registerPatient方法中添加它们。

答案 1 :(得分:1)

我甚至不会单独制作一个比较器。您可以在Patient类上实现Comparable接口并实现必要的compareTo方法。 快速实施:

@Override
public int compareTo(Object o) {
    Patient p = (Patient) o;
    if (this.getCategory() < p.getCategory())
        return -1;
    if (this.getCategory() > p.getCategory())
        return 1;
    else { if (this.getTimeArrived().before(p.getTimeArrived()))
        return -1;
        if (this.getTimeArrived().after(p.getTimeArrived()))
           return 1;
    }
    return 0;
} 

还在registerPatient方法中添加this.add(p)

没有其他任何东西可以让程序运行。有关Comparable接口的更多信息:http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Comparable.html

在您发表评论后,我更仔细地查看了作业,实际上它说:

  

℃。内部使用PriorityQueue和PatientComparator

这意味着(至少我会如何阅读)您实际上不必扩展PriorityQueue,但您可以将其用作内部资源。以下是我将如何实现PatientQueue类:

import java.util.Comparator;
import java.util.PriorityQueue;

public class PatientQueue {
    PriorityQueue pq;

    // default constructor
    public PatientQueue() {
        this.pq = new PriorityQueue<Patient>(1, new PatientComparator());
    }

    public void registerPatient(Patient p) {
        this.pq.add(p);
    } // end registerPatient method

    public Patient getNextPatient() {
        return (Patient) this.pq.poll();
    } // end getNextPatient method

} // end PatientQueue class

并在您的EmergencyRoomSimulator类中将字段声明更改为

PatientQueue pq = new PatientQueue();
