Question

i was able to make sense on the others but this two i need help

Name: ImprovedQueue<T>

Access Modifier: public

Implements: QueueInterface<T>

Instance variables

Name: front

Access modifier: private

Data type: QueueNode<T>

Constructors:

Name: ImprovedQueue

Access modifier: public

Parameters: none (default constructor)

Task: sets the value of front to null

Methods

Name: isEmpty

Access modifier: public

Parameters: none

Return type: boolean

Task: returns true if the front is equal to null; otherwise return false

Name: dequeue                           

Access modifier: public

Parameters: none

Return type: T (parameterized type)

Task: makes a call to the isEmpty method to see if the queue is empty and if it is return null without changing the queue; otherwise removes the front element from this queue and returns it.

Name: enqueue

Access modifier: public

Parameters: element (data type T, parameterized type)

Return type: void

Task: creates a newNode (data type QueueNode<T>) by passing the element parameter to the constructor of the QueueNode<T> class. Then it makes a call to the isEmpty method to see if the queue is empty; if it is it sets value of front to the value of newNode; otherwise it adds it to the rear of the queue. (Note: The rear of the queue is not kept explicitly by an instance variable but it can be found by finding the last node in the queue.)

Develop a class with only a main method in it:

public class QueueDemo {

public static void main(String[] args) {

/*   Inside of this main method do the following:

Create a reference to a QueueInterface<String> called myQueue and have it refer to a new object of the ImprovedQueue<String> class

    

     Call the enqueue method on myQueue passing the String value of “A”

Call the enqueue method on myQueue passing the String value of “B”

Call the enqueue method on myQueue passing the String value of “C”

Call the enqueue method on myQueue passing the String value of “D”

Create a String variable called discard and sets it value to the value that is returned from a call to dequeue on myQueue

Set the value of discard to the value that is returned from a call to dequeue on myQueue

Create a loop that continues as long as the queue is not empty and inside this loop create a variable called front that is set each time through the loop to the value that is returned from a call to dequeue on myQueue and then the value of front is printed each time through the loop

// QueueInterface.java

public interface QueueInterface<T> {
    public boolean isEmpty();

    public T dequeue();

    public void enqueue(T type);
}

// QueueNode.java

public class QueueNode<T> {
    private T info;
    private QueueNode<T> link;

    public QueueNode(T info) {
        this.info = info;
        this.link = null;
    }

    public void setInfo(T info) {
        this.info = info;
    }

    public T getInfo() {
        return info;
    }

    public void setLink(QueueNode<T> link) {
        this.link = link;
    }

    public QueueNode<T> getLink() {
        return link;
    }
}

// ImprovedQueue.java

public class ImprovedQueue<T> implements QueueInterface<T> {

    private QueueNode<T> front;

        front = null;
    }

    @Override

        myQueue.enqueue("A");

        String discard = myQueue.dequeue();

        while(!myQueue.isEmpty()) {
            String front = myQueue.dequeue();
            System.out.println("Front = " + front);
        }
    }
