Class Gate

java.lang.Object

Gate

All Implemented Interfaces:

Logic

Direct Known Subclasses:

GateAnd, GateNand, GateNor, GateNot, GateOr, GateXor, P5Tests.GateThing

public abstract class Gate
extends java.lang.Object
implements Logic

abstract class Gate implemetns the Logic since each gate has their on Logic. Gates are objects that depends on kind of gate will give us different outputs. Gate is an abstract that is the parent of the gates classes.

Constructor Detail

Gate

public Gate(java.lang.String name,
            java.util.List<Wire> ins,
            Wire out)

Gate constructor, construct the disign of our gates child throws ExceptionLogicParameters if are input list is empty

Parameters:

name - is the name to construct the gate

ins - is the list of inputs that a gate has

out - is the output value to get out of this gate.

Method Detail

feed

public void feed(java.util.List<Signal> inSigs)

feed method feeds these list of singnals into inputs list

Specified by:

feed in interface Logic

Parameters:

inSigs - are the list of singlas to put into inputs throws ExceptionLogicParameters is the size of inputs and isSigs are not the same.

feed

public void feed(java.lang.String s)

feed method feeds these String into inputs list

Specified by:

feed in interface Logic

Parameters:

s - is string of singlas to put into inputs list throws ExceptionLogicParameters is the size of inputs and s string are not the same. overloads the feed since just the parameter change same name for method.

read

public java.util.List<Signal> read()

read the single signal value from the output wire, and create a list of singls of outputs

Specified by:

read in interface Logic

Returns:

it as a single value in a List.

propagate

public abstract boolean propagate()

This abstract method should be implement by each child class of gate

Specified by:

propagate in interface Logic

Returns:

boolean value

inspect

public java.util.List<Signal> inspect(java.util.List<Signal> inputs)

A combination of feeding, propagating, and reading. Calls feed() propaget() and read ().

Specified by:

inspect in interface Logic

Parameters:

inputs - is the list of inputs

Returns:

the List of signals from the read()

inspect

public java.lang.String inspect(java.lang.String inputs)

We will return the String of the inputs that we did in previous method.

Specified by:

inspect in interface Logic

Parameters:

inputs - is the list of inputs

Returns:

the String of signals that are output signals

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

toString the representation of a gate object

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a string of form NameGate(inputs | outputs)

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object other)

public boolean equals(Object other). Return true if other is another Gate and has the same values for name, inputs and outputs.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

other - is the object that we compare too.

Returns:

the boolean expresion if the object are equal or no.

getInputs

public java.util.List<Wire> getInputs()

getInputs

Returns:

the list of wires that are in inputs

getOutput

public Wire getOutput()

getOutput

Returns:

the wire that are in output

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

getName

Returns:

the name of this Gate

setInputs

public void setInputs(java.util.List<Wire> inputs)

setInputs sets the inputs to parameter value list

Parameters:

inputs - the list to set the inputs

setOutput

public void setOutput(Wire output)

setOutput sets the output to parameter value

Parameters:

output - the value to set the output

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)

setName sets the name to parameter value

Parameters:

name - the value to set the name
