  1. Begin with the SuitsAndRanks class. This class will demonstrate using the Enum type. The completed class should contain:
    1. An Enum type named Rank going from TWO through ACE
    2. An Enum type named Suit with values CLUBS, DIAMONDS, HEARTS, SPADES
    3. A fetchSuit method that is passed in an integer and returns the corresponding Suit
    4. A fetchRank method that is passed in an integer and returns the corresponding Rank
    5. Use the .values method for Enum types to create an array of ranks and an array of suits

Starting SuitsAndRanks class - need help with the array portion:

public class SuitsAndRanks { /** * Provides the enumerated suits for playing cards in order of * * increasing importance for the game of bridge. */ //TODO: Create enum for Suit (i.e., CLUBS, DIAMONDS, HEARTS, SPADES) public enum Suit { CLUBS, DIAMONDS, HEARTS, SPADES };

/** * Provides the enumerated ranks for playing cards in ascending * order. */ // TODO: Create enum for Rank (ie TWO, THREE, ..., ACE) public enum Rank { TWO, THREE, FOUR, FIVE, SIX, SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, TEN, JACK, QUEEN, KING, ACE };

// TODO: Create a public static array of Suits named 'suits' // containing all the suits. public static Suit[] suits = Suit.values(); //TODO: Create a public static constant for the number of Suits. public static final int NUMSUITS = 4; // TODO: Create a public static array of Ranks named // 'ranks' containing all ranks. public static Rank[] ranks = Rank.values();

//TODO: Create a public static constant for the number of Ranks. public static final int NUMRANKS = 13;

/** * fetchSuit returns the Suit at a given index. * If the index is greater than the number of suits, * wrap the index back to zero using the mod operator. * * @param index Index into the 'suits' array * @return The Suit at that index */ //TODO: Create a public static method named 'fetchSuit' public static Suit fetchSuit(int index) { return suits[index % NUMSUITS]; } /** * fetchRank returns the Rank at a given index. * If the index is greater than the number of suits, * wrap the index back to zero using the mod operator. * * @param index Index into the 'ranks' array * @return The Rank at that index */ //TODO: Create a public static method named 'featchRank' public static Rank fetchRank(int index) { return ranks[index % NUMRANKS]; }

}
