Development hint for lab 6

  1. Write the method to get a specified value in a file (such as the third number).
    • It should be sent a string representing that file name and which number to get.
    • Don't go further until this is done and you have tested it.
    • You don't need to (but can) start to use constants. You can just send a literal string to the method if you wish to test the method
  2. Write another method that will look up a word in a file and return which line number it is one
    • It should be sent two strings (first is the file name, second is the string to search)
    • Don't go further until this is done and tested it.
    • You can just send literal strings to test it if you wish
  3. Write a priming read in your main method that just continues to get words until the word quit is entered
    • Don't move until until this works
  4. Integrate your three parts developed above into solving the problem.
