CS 1102-01 - AY2025-T3 Programming Assignment Unit 2

The document outlines the creation of a Java program for a Library System, which includes a Book class and methods for adding, borrowing, and returning books using a HashMap for storage. It provides a menu-driven interface for user interaction and handles various scenarios such as updating book quantities and validating borrow/return requests. Additionally, it includes explanations of the code structure and sample output for user actions.

Step 1: Creating the Java Program

creating a LibrarySystem class with methods to add books, borrow books, return books, and exit the program.

using a HashMap to store book details.

import java.util.HashMap;

import java.util.Map;

import java.util.Scanner;

class Book {

String title;

String author;

int quantity;

public Book(String title, String author, int quantity) {

this.title = title;

this.author = author;

this.quantity = quantity;

public void addQuantity(int quantity) {

this.quantity += quantity;

}
public boolean borrowBook(int quantity) {

if (this.quantity >= quantity) {

this.quantity -= quantity;

return true;

} else {

return false;

public void returnBook(int quantity) {

this.quantity += quantity;

public class LibrarySystem {

private static final Map<String, Book> library = new HashMap<>();

private static final Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);

public static void main(String[] args) {

while (true) {

System.out.println("\nLibrary System Menu:");

System.out.println("1. Add Book");


System.out.println("2. Borrow Book");

System.out.println("3. Return Book");

System.out.println("4. Exit");

System.out.print("Enter your choice: ");

int choice = scanner.nextInt();

scanner.nextLine(); // Consume newline

switch (choice) {

case 1:

addBook();

break;

case 2:

borrowBook();

break;

case 3:

returnBook();

break;

case 4:

System.out.println("Exiting the program. Goodbye!");

return;

default:
System.out.println("Invalid choice! Please enter a number between 1 and 4.");

private static void addBook() {

System.out.print("Enter book title: ");

String title = scanner.nextLine();

System.out.print("Enter book author: ");

String author = scanner.nextLine();

System.out.print("Enter quantity: ");

int quantity = scanner.nextInt();

scanner.nextLine(); // Consume newline

if (library.containsKey(title)) {

library.get(title).addQuantity(quantity);

System.out.println("Updated the quantity of existing book: " + title);

} else {

library.put(title, new Book(title, author, quantity));

System.out.println("Added new book: " + title);


}

private static void borrowBook() {

System.out.print("Enter book title: ");

String title = scanner.nextLine();

if (!library.containsKey(title)) {

System.out.println("Error: Book not found in library.");

return;

System.out.print("Enter quantity to borrow: ");

int quantity = scanner.nextInt();

scanner.nextLine(); // Consume newline

if (library.get(title).borrowBook(quantity)) {

System.out.println("You have borrowed " + quantity + " copies of '" + title + "'.");

} else {

System.out.println("Error: Not enough copies available.");

}
private static void returnBook() {

System.out.print("Enter book title: ");

String title = scanner.nextLine();

if (!library.containsKey(title)) {

System.out.println("Error: This book does not belong to our library.");

return;

System.out.print("Enter quantity to return: ");

int quantity = scanner.nextInt();

scanner.nextLine(); // Consume newline

library.get(title).returnBook(quantity);

System.out.println("You have returned " + quantity + " copies of '" + title + "'.");

Step 2: Explanation of the Code

Book Class: Represents a book with attributes (title, author, quantity) and methods to modify the quantity.

Library System: Stores books using a HashMap<String, Book>, where the key is the book title.
Menu Options:

Add Book: If the book exists, it updates the quantity; otherwise, it adds a new book.

Borrow Book: Checks if the requested number of books is available before borrowing.

Return Book: Ensures the book belongs to the library before accepting a return.

Exit: Ends the program.

Input Handling: Prevents incorrect input formats using scanner.nextLine() adjustments.

Step 3: Sample Output

Adding Books:

Borrowing a Book:
Returning a Book:
Borrowing More Than Available:

Returning a Non-Existing Book:


Exiting:
