Start by downloading CS201_Lab04.zip and importing it into Eclipse. You should see a project called CS201_Lab04.

You will make changes to the class called Remember.

Your task

Write a program that “remembers” the name of the last person to run the program.

Here is an example session showing what should happen the first time someone runs the program (user input in bold):

No one has run this program before!
What is your name? Alice
Ok, Alice, I'm writing your name to a file

An example session showing what happens the second time someone runs the program (user input in bold):

The last person to run the program was Alice
What is your name? Bob
Ok, Bob, I'm writing your name to a file

The next time someone runs the program, it will print Bob’s name as the last person to run the program.

Hints

Store the name of the last person to run the program in a text file.

You can use a FileReader and BufferedReader to read from the file, and a FileWriter to create the file.

You will need to be able to determine whether or not the file containing the name has been created. You can do so as follows. Assume that the variable fileName is a String containing the name of the file in which the name should be stored:

File f = new File(fileName);
if (f.exists()) {
    // the file exists
} else {
    // the file has not been created yet
}

If you want to see the file that your program created, right-click on the name of the project, and choose Refresh. You should see your file at the top-level of the project in the Package Explorer.

Submitting

When you are done, submit the lab to the Marmoset server using either of the methods below.

From Eclipse

If you have the Simple Marmoset Uploader Plugin installed, select the project (CS201_Lab04) in the package explorer and then press the blue up arrow button in the toolbar. Enter your Marmoset username and password when prompted.

From a web browser

Save the project (CS201_Lab04) to a zip file by right-clicking it and choosing

Export…→Archive File

Upload the saved zip file to the Marmoset server as lab4. The server URL is
