[Java] Battleships assignment assistance


Question

G'day chaps,

We currently have a Battleships assignment for one of my computer science courses at University, which is due pretty soon. It's nothing too complicated, but I am extremely new to programming as a whole, especially Java. The hard parts of this have been done for us, like the UI class and certain other parts. However, I'm asking for a bit of guidance on some sections.

I'll upload the assignment explanation .pdf as well as the files for it, so people can check it out and read through it themselves. So far I have completed the Ship class and accompanying subclasses, such as Aircraft Carrier, etc.

I should note also that I am not looking for answers. I would honestly rather fail than cheat; if you're going to get somebody to do the work for you, then why bother doing it? I hope to learn from you guys, as you've been extremely helpful in the past :)

Currently I'm working on the Player class, and have done a bit of that, but I'll post this up now, as I'm quite busy, to see who replies. Also, I won't post up the code that I have completed, because I know there are a few people in my course who visit these forums regularly, so I'm playing it safe ;) I can probably send it to people via a PM though.

Thanks!

(also, I'm currently going through the Blue Pelican Java .pdf which is quite helpful, but so far I'm still stuck on the assignment, heh)

(double also, we are using the BlueJ IDE to complete this)

Just to be perfectly clear :

The work in this assignment is to be carried out individually.

You must not discuss program-level details with anyone other than a COSC121 class tutor or the

lecturers. Looking at anyone else's program, whether on paper or on screen, is not permitted, nor

is inviting someone else to look at your program. You are, however, permitted to talk about the

high-level details of the battleships game with any other student. Issues such as How do you play

battleships? are appropriate topics for discussion.

If you get stuck on a programming issue, you are encouraged to ask your tutor or one of the lecturers.

Do not ask a fellow student from the class.

I understand the intent of this is to prevent you from getting solutions from fellow students and ensuring you figure out all the logic by yourself or with the help of your tutor. It seems to me this prevents you from asking any programming advice here. Not that I wouldn't help, but this is a public forum, so proceed at your own risk. Is my understanding correct?
