Constructor Detail

PointExperiment

public PointExperiment()
Method Detail

init

public void init()
This method initializes the experiment, including the toolbar with scrollbars and labels, the random variable table and graph, the record table and the coin panel.

Overrides:
init in class Experiment

getAppletInfo

public java.lang.String getAppletInfo()
This method returns basic information about the applet, including copyright information, descriptive information, and instructions.

Specified by:
getAppletInfo in interface IExperiment
Overrides:
getAppletInfo in class Experiment
Returns:
applet information

stateChanged

public void stateChanged(javax.swing.event.ChangeEvent e)
This method handles the scrollbar events for adjusting the number of points needed by the two players, and the probability of winning a point.

Specified by:
stateChanged in interface javax.swing.event.ChangeListener
Overrides:
stateChanged in class Experiment
Parameters:
e - change event

setParameters

public void setParameters()
This method sets the parameter of the win distribution when the number of points needed for a player or the point probability have changed.


doExperiment

public void doExperiment()
This method defines the experiment. Bernoulli trials are conducted until one player has won her required number of points.

Specified by:
doExperiment in interface IExperiment
Overrides:
doExperiment in class Experiment

step

public void step()
This method runs the experiment one time with additional sound and annimation.

Specified by:
step in interface IExperiment
Overrides:
step in class Experiment

run

public void run()
This method stops the step process, if necessary, and then calls the usual run method.

Overrides:
run in class Experiment

stop

public void stop()
This method stops the step process, if necessary, and then calls the usual stop method.

Specified by:
stop in interface IExperiment
