/*		          CSC 15 Lab 4

	          Due one week from date assigned


  This lab lets you practice with if-else (and while) statements.  

  First a quick review.  Remember that both if-else (and while) statments
  can consists of blocks of other statements enclosed in {}'s:

  if (x < 10) 
    { System.out.print("small"); 
      x = x+1; 
    }
    else 
    { System.out.print("big");
       x = x-1;
    }

  The above lines should be thought of as *a single* compound statement.
  Depending on the value of x, executing this statement will result in
  the execution of one or the other sequence of statments enclosed in {}'s

  These sequences of statements enclosed in {}'s are like miniture programs
  on their own.  They can also contain other compound if-else statements,
  resulting in a nesting of statements.

  Similarly, a while loop executes a sequence of statments repeatedly until
  the boolean condition becomes false.

  int x = 0;
  while (x < 10)
   { System.out.print(x);
     x = x+1;
   }
  
  The above program segment will print 0123456789 on the screen.

  When writing compound statements such as if-else and while loops, it is
very important to line up the brackets and use proper indentation: code that 
look like the following are *UNACCEPTABLE*:

if (x<5) 
{ if(y<x){
y=y+1; 
} 
else y=z;} 
else {y=y+x;
z=1;}

The proper way to write this is:

if (x<5)
   { // case for x<5
      if (y<x)
         { y = y+1; }
      else 
         { y = z; }
   } // end case for x<5
else 
   { // case not x<5
     y = y+x;
     z = 1;
   } // end of case not x<5


Note that the indentation clarifies (both for the person who wrote it and
for others who reads it) how the {}'s and if's and else's associates with
eachother.  Whenever the statements enclosed in braces are more than a single
line long, place a comment next to { and } to describe the case that these
statements corresponds to.  This is especially important in nested if-else
statements.

Lab 3 Part I: Warm Up

You will write a standard Java program wrapped around the following skeleton:

import cs1.Keyboard;
public class Warmup
{
  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
      // Your code goes here
  }
} // class Warmup

For the first program, write a program to prompt the user to enter an
integer.  You should recall how to do that from the previous labs.
You need to declare an integer variable, then assign to it
Keyboard.readInt().  Then, write a if-else statement to determine if
the number entered is odd or even.  How do you do that?  Simply take
the remainder of the number after dividing it by two.  If it's 1 then
the number is odd, and if it's 0 then the number is even.  For
example, 8%2==0 because 8 is even, 9%2==1 because 9 is odd.  Zero can
be considered an even number.  You should then print out one of the
following messages:

"The number you entered is even", or
"The number you entered is odd"


------

  For the main part of the lab you are to write a program that asks the user a
series of questions in order to guess what kind of animal the user is
talking about.  The user can answer the questions with either 'y' or 'n'.

  Here's an idea of what the program should do:

Computer: Is it a mammal?  y
Computer: Does it walk on four legs? y
Computer: Does it prey on other animals? y

Computer: According to my database, your animal is likely a tiger.
----

Of course, more questions would be needed to really pin the answer down 
to a tiger.  Your program needs to ask enough questions to distinguish
between the following animals:

tiger, horse, rabbit, shark, squid, turtle, snake, chicken, hawk

Note the above line of questions was enough to exclude all other
possibilites except tiger.  You should draw a species tree to determine
what and how many questions you need to ask.

* If the answers do not match any of the animals in your database, 
you are to output a message indicating so:

Computer: I'm sorry, I've no information on such an animal

*** Important rule: each question can only ask a single trait, i.e,
you can not ask "is it a tiger" directly - that would be cheating!


Input/Output:
You should use JOptionPane.showInputDialog and JOptionPane.showMessageDialog
for input and output.  Note: To compare if two strings are equal, you
can't use == (except in special circumstances).  Do it this way instead:

String s;
s = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"enter yes or no");
if (s.equals("yes"))
  {  ...  
  }
else 
  {  ...
  }

---
Your program will consist of a number of if-else statements nested within
if-else statments.

Here's something to get you started with:
*/

import javax.swing.*;

public class lab4
{
 public static void main(String[] args)
 {
   String response;  // (input) stores response to question ("yes" or "no")

   response = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Is it a mammal?");

   if (response.equals("yes")) 
    { // ask next question based on answer (is mammal)
      response = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"Can it fly?");
      if (response.equals("yes"))
	 {
	   // next question based on mammal that can fly
	 }
      else  // assume response is no
	{
          // next question based on mammal that can't fly 
        }

    }  // closes sub-statement for mammal question
   else
    {
       // next question based on non-mammal animal
    }

   System.exit(0);
 } // end main
} // end class lab4

/*
------

Make sure that your braces are lined up and commented (unless they
enclose a single line of code).  I will not look at programs with braces
that are not lined up. 

After you're finished with the first part, put a while loop around
your entire code so that the program will execute repeatedly:

String again;
again = "yes";

while (again.equals("yes"))
{
  // code for determining animal, excluding variable declarations

  again = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null,"go again?");
} // closes while loop
