Could a portable swamp cooler be be made to work better on high humidity days by using it concurrently with a room dehumidifier?

Yes, in theory, but impractical in execution. A swamp cooler normally pulls in outside air to treat, not inside air. If they are set up to recirculate inside air, they will over humidify the air, and cause sweating problems.
A dehumidifier will be adding heat from the compressor into the space while it does its' job, while you then have three motors running (dehumidifier, pump, fan). For that running price, I think you could air condition your space. Those energy use calculations can be run, and you could determine it for sure. Find an engineering student to help you; it sounds like an interesting set of questions.

Is it better to have wall to wall carpeting in the basement or just a concrete floor?
There is nothing wrong with installing carpeting in the basement. There may be types of carpeting that work better with humidity in the basement. Be sure that your basement is sealed to keep water out before installing.

Why is java's portability better than c plus plus?
As we know that java is a plateform independent language and the main advantage of java is that it can support to any operating system and can be executed to any machines without any modifications.Due to the use of class in java it has become more easier to understand the program compared to c plus plus.Hence,java is portable than c plus plus
Would you select c plus plus or java in 11 class?
Its really a matter of opinion. I prefer C++ to Java but that doesn't mean C++ is always better than Java. C++ can be rather hard to learn if you are new to it but it is a very rewarding language. On the other hand, Java is very portable and is used in just about all Android phones (I don't know enough to say whether or not all of them use java.) Anyway, if it is system development or game development you are going for, C++ is a great choice, providing low level access to the computer and providing fast speed if the code is written well. Java is a good portable language that is compiled to computer code using the Java Virtual Machine which compiles it to computer readable code and then runs which makes it portable. In the case of Java, mobile phone apps, web apps and games (most well known being Minecraft) are available to you. It all depends on what you want, hopefully with the information I have give you you can make and informed decision.
What are the advantages of implementing 74LS193 over 74LS163?
Primary disadvantage: it is old technology (1986) and unless it is one of the only ICs on the circuit board, a much better option is to select a programmable device (CPLD, FPGA, programmable microcontroller, etc). Other disadvantages: -draws a large amount of current: not suitable for portable devices -has a fixed operating voltage of 5V -has ambient temperature limitations -has poor switching characteristics -large sized package -can only count up
How do you know that you need a dehumidifier for your basement?
Get a humidity gauge (Is there a better word for this?) and put it in your basement. Watch it for a few weeks. If it is consistently high (I'd say abouve 75%) you may want to invest in a dehumidifier.
