Lab 14 lnstructions Generic Methods Background Generic methods provide a way to produce functionality that works with virtually any type of object. You have already used quite a few generic methods - from the APl - without actually diving into the details. In this lab assignment, you will produce two generic methods for managing arrays Provided to You The following are provided to you These instructions Base code (ArrayMethods.java) for your completed lab . Declaration and load of four arrays Complete method printArray to use as an example Code that describes and calls the methods you will write o o o . Pet.java a class referenced ArrayMethods.java . Sample Output from your completed ArrayMethods.java (below) Requirements Write a generic method printRange: o Accept an array of any type o Accept two int values a starting point (print this object) and a stopping point (do not print this object) o Test that the range passed is valid: " Stopping point is greater than starting point * Starting point is equal to or greater than zero " Stopping point is equal to or less than the last subscript in the array Using a standard for loop, print all array elements from the starting point up to (and not o including) the stopping point * Write a generic method returnItem: o Accept an array of any type o Accept an int representing the subscript of the desired item o Return the desired item (regardless of type) to the calling method o No validation is needed for the passed int; if the passed value is not within the bounds of the array, an exception will be raised the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). No exception handling is required

Answer 1

        public static<T> void printRange(T data[], int start, int end) {
                if(start < 0 || start > end || end >= data.length) {
                        System.out.println("Invalid parameters passed.");
                } else {
                        for(int i=start; i<=end; i++) {
                                System.out.println(data[i]);
                        }
                }
        }

        public static<T> T returnItem(T data[], int index) {
                return data[index];
        }
        
        you have shared the same pet class instead of arraymethods class.. but still the given methods above should fit in ArrayMethods without any issues.
