Chatbot client and class modification
- by blake
ChatBot Class Modification:
Modify the reply() method of the ChatBot class to recognize additional words and phrases.
Part 1: Everyone must complete this section.
When the userInput parameter value is: The reply method should return:
how do I quit enter quit
how do I exit enter quit
how do I stop enter quit
how do I ____ do you really want to do that
how are you I'm fine
how ______ I don't know
Add two additional words or phrases to recognize and respond to.
ChatBot Client Modification:
Modify the ChatBot client application to loop until the end-user enters "quit".
Here is my service class

/**
* Default constructor.
*/
public class Chatbot
{
private String name; /** Users name */
private String introbot; /** Name of the Chatbot */
private String reply; /** Replies to the input of the string name and string introbot */
/**
* Constructs mutebot object
* @param mutebow - returns name of mutebot
*/
public Chatbot()
{
name = "MuteBot";
}
/**
* Changes Name
* @param name - new name
*/
public void setName (String n)
{
name = n;
}
/**
* Accesses name
* @return a brand new name
*/
public String getName()
{
return name;
}
/**
* Accesses introbot
* @return name of mutebot
*/
public String introbot()
{
String intro = "Hello! My name is " + name;
return intro;
}
/**
* Accesses replay(String newuserinput)
* @return introbot reply to user input
*/
public String getreply(String newuserinput)
{
String reply = "I'm just learning to talk";
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("What"))
reply = "Why do you ask?";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("Why") )
reply = "Why Not";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("How"))
reply = "I don't know!";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("Where") )
reply = "Anne Arundel Community College";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("When"))
reply = "Tomorrow";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("how do I quit"))
reply = "enter quit";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("how do I exit"))
reply = "enter quit";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("how do I stop"))
reply = "enter quit";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("how are you"))
reply = "I'm fine";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("how do you do"))
reply = "I am doing well";
else
if (newuserinput.equalsIgnoreCase("how do I get out"))
reply = "By going through the door";
else
if (newuserinput.indexOf("how do I" ) ==0)
{ String substring = newuserinput.substring(8);
reply = "do you really want to do that" + substring;
}
else
if (newuserinput.indexOf("how" ) ==0)
{ String substring = newuserinput.substring(10);
reply = "I don't know" + substring ;
}
return reply;
}
}
Here is my client/application class
/**
* Java Chatbot Client class
* @author Blake
* 3/5/2012
*/
import java.util.Scanner;
public class ChatbotClient
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
Chatbot t = new Chatbot();
System.out.print("What is your name? ");
String name = input.nextLine();
System.out.println(t.introbot());
System.out.print(name + "> ");
String reply = input.nextLine();
System.out.println(t.getName() + "> " + t.getreply(reply));
//while (reply < quit)
/*{
quit++
i = i + 1
}*/
}
}
I don't know what I am doing wrong with this part right here
Modify the ChatBot client application to loop until the end-user enters "quit".
I am trying to create a while loop which will continue until user says quit.
