word occurrence add() help

[Alpdog14]

I have a java project that I need help on. The program is for word occurrences and I have a basic add() and frequency() methods I need help creating, not sure how to begin. here is the skeleton I am working with:

@Override
	public void add(final String word, final int line) {
		// TODO your job
		word.add(line);
	}

	/*
	 * (non-Javadoc)
	 * 
	 * @see edu.luc.cs.laufer.index.Index#frequency(java.lang.String)
	 */
	@Override
	public int frequency(final String word) {
		// TODO your job
		return -1;
	}

The problem is I have used .add() in other code before but I never created one. Can anyone help a beginner java coder or at least start me off in the right direction.

[LReynolds]

in your prior case where you used .add() that would usually use the .add() method of some other object. If you are in the class with the add method, then it should be more like add(word, line). and in your add method it should contain something like:

String wordVar = word;
String linVar = line;

It looks to me like you may need to look more into how methods and parameter passing works.

LReynolds, thanks for assisting me so I put that in and we have a pre-written test that we are suppose to run after we finish a method to make sure it works but when I run my test it still fails, here is my test:

public void testAdd() {
		int s = index.containsKey("xyz") ? index.get("xyz").size() : 0;
		index.add("xyz", 5);
		assertTrue(index.get("xyz").contains(5));
		assertEquals(s + 1, index.get("xyz").size());
	}

Can you tell me by the test where else I need to add code, I think I have to do something with containsKey, can you assist me on how I would implement such a method.

[Alpdog14]

So I tried written a containsKey but its still failing, can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong:

public boolean containsKey (String wordvar, int linevar){
		if(wordvar == null){
			return false;
		}
		return true;
	}

[LReynolds]

Going to need you to post more/all of your code, I can't understand it with what you have.

I hope this helps you understand the word occurrence project. I have tests that i have to run and they have to pass and they do not because i need to implement the parts that say TODO, any help would be most appreciated.

[Alpdog14]

So I think I need to develop the correct containsKey() and get() to get the first test working correctly. Here is my code and it still fails:

public boolean containsKey (Object key){
		Object k = key;
		if(key == null){
			return false;
		}
		key.equals(k);
		return true;
	}
	
	public int get (int key){
		int k = key;
		return k;
		
	}

can anyone guide me the right direction. the Test code is here:

@Test
	public void testAdd() {
		int s = index.containsKey("xyz") ? index.get("xyz").size() : 0;
		index.add("xyz", 5);
		assertTrue(index.get("xyz").contains(5));
		assertEquals(s + 1, index.get("xyz").size());
	}

[LReynolds]

Do you already have the input file tokenized so that you can even check to see if it containsKey ? because the containsKey method seems to be comparing the string you are adding with any word in the document. So unless you have an Index to compare the string being added, your containsKey method is not going to work.
