hw-00 | programming language design - fall'2006, dr. s. yurttas - solution

rationale

This is your first assignment to practice and show that you're able to compose an application using given components by adapting/extending to new uses other than given types.

You'll practice the fundamentals of programming using imperative language abstraction mechanisms in C++ and Java or C# to compose and structure an application using multiple functions/methods.

problem

You'll write an application either in C++ and in C# or Java to locate and count the frequency of any pattern after nth location of the given sequence for each sequence as follows:

      -> dna filenames : dna-filenames.txt

      [ input sequences -
        dna-00 :
        ATCTCTAGTCATA
        TATCTATCTCTCT
        ACTCCTCTTCTCG
        TAGACTAGGACCT
        TCTTATCTATTCG
        GCCTTGTGGACCC

        dna-01 :
        .
        .
        .
      ]

      -> intput pattern : tc

      -> location after : 2

      -> output filename : dna-counts.txt

      [
        dna-00 :
        ATCTCTAGTCATA - 2
        TATCTATCTCTCT - 4
        ACTCCTCTTCTCG - 4
        TAGACTAGGACCT - 0
        TCTTATCTATTCG - 2
        GCCTTGTGGACCC - 0

        dna-01 :
        .
        .
        .
      ]

For a given file: list the DNA sequences with count values as above.
Filename for the given datafiles read in, interactively, from command-line.
You'll do this repetitively until user decides as N, interactively, from the command-line.
You'll create one output file.
Structuring and composition as static methods in C#|Java or multiple functions in C++ will be the essence of grading; as well as, correctness.
You will use and reuse C#, Java, and C++ collections.
