BASIC CONCEPTS Morphine and hydromorphone (Dilaudid) are two types of opioid receptor agonists used for pain management. Hydromorphone is a more potent drug than morphine, and lower doses are needed to control pain. How do actions at receptor sites explain this difference?

What is the output of the println() calls below:                              String s1 = new String(“abc”);                       String s2 = new String(“abc”);                       String s3 = new String(“abc”).intern();                       String s4 = new String(“abc”).intern();                       String s5 = “abc”;                       String s6 = “abc”;                                             System.out.println(s1 == s2);                        System.out.println(s1 == s3);                        System.out.println(s1 == s5);                        System.out.println(s3 == s4);                        System.out.println(s3 == s5);                        System.out.println(s5 == s6); 

Consider the code below.   // A typical account has a balance that is a result of summing a sequence of transactions (or amounts) public class Account {               private int balance;               private List amounts;                 // Requires: true               // Effects: Initializes this to have a zero balance and an empty sequence of transactions               public Account() {                              amounts = new ArrayList();                              balance = 0;                              if (repOk() == false) { System.out.println(“Account(): rep-inv violated”); System.exit(-1); }               }               // Requires: true               // Effects: append amount to the sequence of transactions, and add it to balance               public void customerTransaction(int amount) {                              amounts.add(amount);                              balance += amount;                              if (repOk() == false) { System.out.println(“customerTransaction(): rep-inv violated”); System.exit(-1); }               }               public int getBalance() { return balance; }                   // Rep-invariant1:  a) amounts != null               //                               b) balance = sum of all amounts.get(i), where 0 = 0          boolean repOk() {                                                   }                                                                                                      (1 pt) Implement repOk() based on Rep-Invariant1.   (1 pt) Give 2 example values for balance and amounts that do not violate Rep-invariant1. For each example, provide the client code.   (0.5 pt) Give 2 example values for balance and amounts that do violate Rep-invariant1.   (1 pt) Consider an updated Rep-invariant2. Implement repOk() based on it. // Rep-invariant2:   a) amounts != null //                               b) balance = sum of all amounts.get(i), where 0 = 0          //                               d) amounts.get(i) cannot be 0, where 0
