Problem Description

In this lab, we are going to write an immutable Logger class to handle the context of logging changes to values while they are operated upon. We do this so as to separate the code for logging from the main business logic.

A sample logging session is shown below:

jshell> Logger.<Integer>of(5)

$13 ==> Logger[5]

jshell> Logger.<Integer>of(5).map(x -> x + 1)

$14 ==> Logger[6]

5->6

jshell> Logger.<Integer>of(5).map(x -> x + 1).map(x -> x * 2)

$15 ==> Logger[12]

5->6

6->12

jshell> Logger.<Integer>of(5).map(x -> x + 1).map(x -> x * 2).map(x -> x)

$16 ==> Logger[12]

5->6

6->12

12 -> 12

Notice that the log of value changes are tracked and output in the form

old_value -> new_value

Task

Your task is to write a Logger class that provides the operations of, map, flatMap and test.

You will also write several applications using the Logger as solutions to classic computation problems. This would allow us to look at the values changes when solving each problem.

This task is divided into several levels. Read through all the levels to see how the different levels are related.


Level 1

Start by writing a static method of within the class Logger that wraps a value within it. Include the toString() method to output the Logger containing the value.

To ensure that a valid Logger is created, the of method should throw an IllegalArgumentException when the argument is null or another Logger.


jshell> Logger.<Integer>of(5)

$.. ==> Logger[5]

jshell> Logger<String> hello = Logger.<String>of("Hello")

hello ==> Logger[Hello]

jshell> try { Logger.<Object>of(hello); }

...> catch (Exception e) { System.out.println(e); } java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: already a Logger

jshell> try { Logger.<Integer>of(null); }

...> catch (Exception e) { System.out.println(e); } java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument cannot be null

Level 2

Include a map method that takes in a function Function<? super T, ? extends U>, applies it on the value, and wraps the result in another Logger. Modify the toString() method to include the output of the value changes over all map operations.


jshell> Logger<Integer> five = Logger.<Integer>of(5)

five ==> Logger[5]

jshell> five.map(x -> x + 1)

$.. ==> Logger[6]

5->6

jshell> five

five ==> Logger[5]

jshell> five.map(x -> x + 1).map(x -> x - 1)

$.. ==> Logger[5]

5->6

6->5

jshell> five.map(x -> x + 1).map(x -> x - 1).map(x -> x)

$.. ==> Logger[5]

5->6

6->5

5->5

jshell> Logger.<String>of("hello").map(x -> x.length())

$.. ==> Logger[5]

hello -> 5

jshell> Logger.<String>of("hello").map(x -> x.length()).map(x -> x * 2)

$.. ==> Logger[10]

hello -> 5

5->10

jshell> Function<Object, Integer> f = x -> x.hashCode()

f ==> $Lambda$26/0x00000008000bbc40@754ba872

jshell> Logger.<String>of("hello").map(f)

$.. ==> Logger[99162322]

hello -> 99162322

jshell> Function<String, Integer> g = x -> x.length(); g ==> $Lambda$27/0x00000008000bb040@464bee09

jshell> Logger<Number> lognum = Logger.<String>of("hello").map(g)

lognum ==> Logger[5]

hello -> 5

Level 3


Write the flatMap method that takes a function Function<? super T, ? extends Logger<? extends U>>, applies it on the value and wraps the result in another Logger. In particular, note the sequence of value changes being output.


jshell> Logger<Integer> five = Logger.<Integer>of(5)

five ==> Logger[5]

jshell>
five.flatMap(x -> Logger.of(x + 1))
$.. ==>
Logger[6]
jshell>
five.map(x -> x + 2).map(x -> x * 10)
$.. ==>
Logger[70]
5
-> 7

7
-> 70

jshell>
five.flatMap(x -> Logger.of(x).map(y -> y + 2)).

...>
flatMap(y -> Logger.of(y).map(z -> z * 10))
$.. ==>
Logger[70]
5
-> 7

7
-> 70

jshell>
Logger.<Integer>of(5).

...>
flatMap(x -> Logger.of(x).

...>
map(y -> y + 2).

...>
flatMap(y -> Logger.of(y).map(z -> z * 10)))
$.. ==>
Logger[70]
5
-> 7

7
-> 70


jshell> Function<Object, Logger<Integer>> f = x -> Logger.<Object>of(x).map(y -> y.hashCod f ==> $Lambda$29/0x00000008000ca040@4cf777e8

jshell> Logger.of("hello").flatMap(f)

$.. ==> Logger[99162322]

hello -> 99162322

jshell> Function<String, Logger<Integer>> g = x -> Logger.<String>of(x).map(y -> y.length g ==> $Lambda$31/0x00000008000ca840@1ce92674

jshell> Logger<Number> lognum = Logger.<String>of("hello").flatMap(g)

lognum ==> Logger[5]

hello -> 5

Level 4

Include an equals(Object) method that returns true if the argument Logger object is the same as this Logger, or false otherwise. Two loggers are equal if and only if both the wrapped value as well as the logs are the same.


jshell> Logger<Integer> five = Logger.<Integer>of(5)

five ==> Logger[5]

jshell> Logger.<Integer>of(5).equals(five)

$.. ==> true

jshell> Logger.<Integer>of(5).map(x -> x).equals(five)

$.. ==> false

jshell> five.equals(five)

$.. ==> true

jshell> five.equals(5)

$.. ==> false

jshell> Function<Integer,Logger<Integer>> f = x -> Logger.of(x).map(y -> y + 2); f ==> $Lambda$18/0x00000008000bec40@57baeedf

jshell> Function<Integer,Logger<Integer>> g = x -> Logger.of(x).map(y -> y * 2); g ==> $Lambda$19/0x00000008000bd840@5442a311

jshell> Logger.of(5).flatMap(f).equals(f.apply(5)) // left identity $.. ==> true

jshell>
five.flatMap(x -> Logger.of(x)).equals(five) // right identity








$.. ==>
true



jshell>
five.flatMap(f).flatMap(g).equals(



...>
five.flatMap(x -> f.apply(x).flatMap(g)))



$.. ==>
true



jshell>
five.flatMap(f).flatMap(g).equals(



...>
five.flatMap(x -> f.apply(x).flatMap(g))) // associativity



$.. ==>
true









Level 5

Let's write some applications using JShell that makes use of our Logger so as to observe how the values changes over the course computation. Save your methods in the fle level5.jsh.

Defne an add(Logger<Integer> a, int b) method that returns the result of a added to b wrapped in a Logger that preserves the log of all operations of a, as well as the addition to b.


jshell> add(Logger.<Integer>of(5), 6)

$.. ==> Logger[11]

5->11

jshell> add(Logger.<Integer>of(5).map(x -> x * 2), 6)

$.. ==> Logger[16]

5->10

10 -> 16

The sum of non-negative integers from 0 to n (inclusive of both) can be computed recursively using


int sum(int n) {

if (n == 0) {

return 0;

} else {

return sum(n - 1) + n;

}

}

Redefne the above method such that it returns the result wrapped in a Logger. You may fnd the above add method useful.


jshell> sum(0)

$.. ==> Logger[0]

jshell> sum(5)

$.. ==> Logger[15]

0->1

1->3

3->6

6->10

10 -> 15

The Collatz conjecture (or the 3n+1 Conjecture) is a process of generating a sequence of numbers starting with a positive integer that seems to always end with 1.


int f(int n) {

if (n == 1) {

return 1;

} else if (n % 2 == 0) { return f(n / 2);
} else {

return f(3 * n + 1);

}

}

Write the function f that takes in n and returns a Logger<Integer> that wraps around the fnal value, with a log of the value changes over time. You should include a test method in the Logger


Logger<T> test(Predicate<? super T> pred, Logger<T> trueLogger, Logger<T> falseLogger)

that takes in a Predicate and two loggers, and returns the former or latter Logger depending on whether pred is









evaluated to true or false.













jshell>
Logger<Integer> five = Logger.<Integer>of(5)






five ==> Logger[5]






jshell>
five.test(x -> x == 5, five.map(x -> x + 1), five.map(x -> x - 1))






$.. ==>
Logger[6]






5
-> 6







jshell>
five.map(x -> x + 1).test(x -> x == 5, five.map(x -> x + 1), five.map(x -> x
- 1)





$.. ==>
Logger[4]






5
-> 4







jshell>
five.map(x -> x + 1).







...>
test(x -> x == 5,







...>
five.map(x -> { System.out.println("add 1"); return x + 1; }),







...>
five.map(x -> { System.out.println("sub 1"); return x - 1; }))






sub 1
Logger[4]






$.. ==>







5
-> 4

f(16)






$.. ==>
Logger[1]






16->8







8
-> 4

f(10)






$.. ==>
Logger[1]






10->5

-> 15
