A print queue is a list of documents, called jobs, waiting to be printed. Each job is assigned an integer job number and an estimated print time, in seconds. If a job arrives and the printer is currently printing another job, the job waits in the print queue. This type of waiting line is called a first-in-first-out (FIFO) or first-come-first-serve (FCFS) waiting line model or queue. The Java LinkedList class is a pretty good class for implementing a waiting line model like this in code. Write a program that uses a LinkedList object to store a list of print jobs in a FIFO queue. We will assume that each job has a unique job number that is assigned sequentially, and that the print time is randomly distributed between 10 seconds and 1000 seconds.

These two data elements should be defined as part of a Job class. The program should prompt the user to either add a job to the queue or to quit. When a user adds a job, the program assigns a job number and randomly generates a print time for the job. When the user quits, the program will display the jobs (i.e., the job id and print time) in the queue, in the order in which they were added. For this exercise, you can use the java.util.Random class to generate random numbers, as follows: Random rnGenerator = new Random( rnSeed ); // creates a Random object printTime = rnGenerator.nextInt( 1000 ) + 10; // next int in range 10-1000 The first statement above instantiates a Random object called rnGenerator. The constructor argument rnSeed is called a random number seed. It is of type long, and is used to help ensure that the same sequence of random numbers is generated each time the program is run…which is helpful for test purposes. The nextInt() method returns a random integer in the range 0 to 999.
