- Define / describe class, attributes and methods and how they work with eachother. What is the relationship between them all?arrow_forwardUsing "type" alone to designate a variable is insufficient. Variables are identifiable by their data type and other characteristics. The next logical step is determining how to apply this concept to describe any given variable.arrow_forwardThe definition of a variable must contain not just the variable's name, but also its "type" and "additional attributes." That is to say, all variables have characteristics beyond just their data type. Explain in further detail the idea that will eventually let us describe any variable with greater precision.arrow_forward
- It is not enough to just name a variable; the definition must additionally provide the variable's "type" and "extra characteristics." To reiterate, each variable is distinguished from others by characteristics that are independent of the data type. We would be really appreciative if you could explain the idea that would enable us to exactly describe any given variable.arrow_forwardA variable's "type" is incomplete. Each variable is related to many qualities and data. What metric was defined using this idea?arrow_forwardA variable's definition must include its "type" and "extra characteristics" as well as its name. To clarify, all variables have non-data type-specific traits. Explain how to correctly describe any variable, and we'll be forever thankful.arrow_forward
- What are the distinguishing elements of a good use case? There are some similarities between use cases and their attributes.arrow_forwardExplain the concept of method overriding in object-oriented programming. Provide an example of a base class and a derived class where method overriding is used.arrow_forwardLearning Objective PI3.2 Understand the process of entity-relationship modeling. STEP 1: Background It is very important that you understand the connections among entities, attributes, and relationships. This section has defined each of these terms for you. Typically, entities are described by their attributes, and they are related to other entities. For example, if "student name" is the entity, then age, gender, country of origin, marital status, and other demographic data are the attributes (characteristics) of that particular student. That student is also related to other entities such as financial information, major, and course information. STEP 2: Activity An entity-relationship model is one of the most challenging aspects of designing a database because you have to (1) understand the rules that govern how processes work and (2) be able to define and describe these rules in a picture. This section has provided you with the necessary tools to draw a basic ER model. Imagine the…arrow_forward
