Methods In ReadSnowfallData.java For Snowfall Data Manipulation

Method Details

We have one ReadSnowfallData.java which comprises of various methods. 

List of methods in this file:-

1. main: –

This is the main method for this program. The program executions start from this method. This method reads the data from the snowfall.dat file and make an array from this data. It also calls the startPrg to start further functionality. 

1. startPrg: –

This is the method that is being called from main method. It contains an infinite loop which calls the menu function to take user choice and then call various methods to perform the functionality selected by the user. 

1. saveFile: –

This method takes atores the current array into snowfall.dat file. 

1. getTotal: –

This method finds and returns the total of an array received as argument. 

5.getAverage: –

This method finds the average of the array passed as argument and returns it to the calling function. 

1. sortByAverage: –

This method makes the use of getAverage method to performs the sorting of the array according to the average snowfall of a site. 

1. swap: –

This method takes two array indexes as arguments and then sorts the array elements present at these two indexes. 

1. sortByTotal: –

This method makes the use of getTotal method to performs the sorting of the array according to the total snowfall of a site. 

1. viewData: –

This method prints the snowfall of all the sites for various years.

1. addNewSiteData: –

This method resizes the array and adds a new row to the current 2D array. After resizing, it takes the snowfall data from the user for all the years and stores it into array. 

1. addNewYearData: –

This method resizes the array and adds a new column to the current 2D array. After resizing, it takes the snowfall data from the user for the New Year for all the sites and stores it into array. 

1. exit: –

This method prints an exit message and terminates the program. 

1. menu: –

This method prints the menu choices available and makes the use of getInt method to return one choice to the user. 

1. getInt: –

This method takes two argument min and max. This method performs the exception handling and returns an integer in the range between min and max. 

1. getDouble: –

This method gets a double value from the user, and returns this value to the calling function. This method makes sure that a valid double value is entered by the user.  

Pseudocode for the various methods: –
