Method Detail

createPersons

Person<java.lang.Integer>[] createPersons(int numPeople)

This method is used to create array with the specified number of Person<Integer> instances.

Parameters:

numPeople - The number of Person<Integer> instances to create.

Returns:

This method returns a Vector<Person<Integer>> with the specified number of Person<Integer> instances.

createBuckets

LinkedList<Person<java.lang.Integer>,java.lang.Integer>[] createBuckets(int numBuckets)

This method create the buckets that are needed for the HashTable<Person<Integer>, Integer>.

Parameters:

numBuckets - The number of buckets needed for the HashTable<Person<Integer>, Integer>.

Returns:

An array of LinkedList<Person<Integer>, Integer$gt; containing the specified number of LinkedList<Person<Integer>, Integer$gt; instances.

createHashTable

HashTable<Person<java.lang.Integer>,java.lang.Integer> createHashTable(DriverInterface.TestType testType,
                                                                       int numPeople)

This method is used to create a HashTable<Person<Integer>, Integer> for the specified testType.

Parameters:

testType - The type of test for the created HashTable.

Insert

The returned HashTable must be empty

Get

The returned HashTable must contain the specified number of Person<Integer> instances.

Remove

The returned HashTable must contain the specified number of Person<Integer> instances.

numPeople - The number of Person<Integer> instances to include in the returned HashTable.

Returns:

This method will return an instance of HashTable<Person<Integer>, Integer> containing the specified number of Person<Integer> instances

runTestCase

TestTimes runTestCase(DriverInterface.TestType testType,
                      int numPeople,
                      int numberOfTimes)

This method is called to run a particular test case on the HashTable<Person<Integer>, Integer> the specified number of times. The run time * and memory usage for each run is saved in the TestTimes class.

Parameters:

testType - The test type to be run.

numPeople - The number of Person<Integer> instances to include in the test.

numberOfTimes - The type of test case being run. See the enum DriverInterface.TestType.

Returns:

An instance of the TestTimes class containing the test times and memory usages.
