For this assignment you will be building on the Fraction class you began last week. All the requirements from that class are still in force. You'll be making five major changes to the class.
Delete your set() function. Add two constructors, a default constructor (a constructor that takes no parameters) and a parameterized constructor (a constructor that takes parameters). The default constructor assigns the value 0 to the Fraction. In the parameterized constructor, the first parameter will represent the initial numerator of the Fraction, and the second parameter will represent the initial denominator of the Fraction.Since Fractions cannot have denominators of 0, the default constructor should assign 0 to the numerator and 1 to the denominator. Also, the parameterized constructor should check to make sure that the second parameter is not a 0 by using the statement "assert(denominatorParameter != 0);". To use the assert() function you'll also need to #include <cassert>. (Note, I…

- So, the problem is: Create a class named BloodData that includes fields that hold a blood type (the four blood types are O, A, B, and AB) and an Rh factor (the factors are + and –). Create a default constructor that sets the fields to O and +, and an overloaded constructor that requires values for both fields. Include get and set methods for each field. Create a class named Patient that includes an ID number, age, and BloodData. Provide a default constructor that sets the ID number to 0, the age to 0, and the BloodData values to O and +. Create an overloaded constructor that provides values for each field. Also provide get methods for each field.The exisitng code is - public class BloodData { private String bloodType; private String rhFactor; public BloodData() { } public BloodData(String bType, String rh) { } public void setBloodType(String bType) { } public String getBloodType() { } public void setRhFactor(String rh) { } public…arrow_forwardCreate a class of Dog, some of the differences you might have listed out maybe breed, age, size, color, etc. Then create characteristics (breed, age, size, color) can form a data member for your object.

This class must have two variables to store name (string) and age (int). These variables should not be accessible from outside the class.b. Encapsulate the variables defined in item a with a property (an intermediate variable) so that they can be accessed from other classes. And after this step, use only intermediate variables that you defined for encapsulation within methods and other classes.c. Define a constructor method for this class. Code the constructor method to initialize the properties of the class at the time of object definition.D. Define a method called Print Info that will print the information of the class object on the screen in a proper format.arrow_forward
- In this exercise, you are going to be working with 4 classes, a Book superclass with TextBook and Novel subclasses, and a BookTester class to run your program. For the Book, TextBook, and Novel class, you will create a constructor and all getters and setters. Be sure to follow standard naming conventions for your getters and setters! Additional information for each class is below. Book Class The Book class will have a title and author as instance variables and the constructor should follow this format: public Book(String title, String author) TextBook Class The TextBook class will have a subject and edition as instance variables and the constructor should follow this format: public TextBook(String title, String author, String subject, String edition) Novel Class The Novel class will have a genre and pages as instance variables and the constructor should follow this format: public Novel(String title, String author, String genre, int pages) BookTester In the tester class, you should…arrow_forwardWrite a class called Alien. The Alien class must have one field of type String called name, one of type String called planet and one field of type boolean called humanoid. Write one constructor that takes three parameters to initialise all of these fields. The parameters must be passed in the order name, planet and humanoid status. IntelliJ hint (this won't be in the real test): put your cursor after the last field; right-click, choose Generate, choose Constructor, select the fields that are set via parameters and click Ok. Check that the constructor is correct. Write a getter method for each field. IntelliJ hint (this won't be in the real test): put your cursor after the closing curly bracket of the constructor; right click, choose Generate, choose Getter, select all of the fields; click Ok. Check that the you have three getters. Do not write setters methods. Write a method called getDetails that will return the values of the fields in one of the following two formats. For example,…arrow_forwardA class can have how many constructor methods? Only one constructor without parameters. Only one constructor with int parameter. Many constructors with same signatures. Many constructors with different signatures.arrow_forward
- Write a shoe class with the following attributes: color (e.g., "blue", "green", "orange") displayName (e.g., "nikes, adidas", "puma") price (e.g., 100, 200,60) Include only one constructor. It should have parameters for each of the attributes and set their values. Additionally, include getters and setters for each of the attributes. Add a driver, name it Purchases, and create 2 objects. Finally, print out some information about both objects (i.e., print the information from some or all of the getters). For example, if you created a shoe object whose color was blue, whose display name was shoes , for a price of 230, you could use the getters to print something like this:These work trousers are blue and cost $230arrow_forwardCreate a class called Date that includes three pieces of information as data members—a month (type int ), a day (type int ) and a year (type int ). Your class should have a constructor with three parameters that uses the parameters to initialize the three data members. For the purpose of this exercise, assume that the values provided for the year and day are correct, but ensure that the month value is in the range 1–12; if it isn’t, set the month to 1. Provide a set and a get function for each data member. Provide a member function displayDate that displays the month, day and year separated by forward slashes ( / ). Write a test program that demonstrates class Date ’s capabilities.arrow_forwardDefine a class named Employee. This class should extend the Person class from the previous question. The class should have a constructor, which takes the name, age, employer (String) and salary (int) as parameters (in that order). The first two parameters should be passed to the constructor of the superclass and the value of the last two parameters should be stored in instance variables. The class should define the methods, getSalary which returns the salary of the employee and getEmployer which returns the name of the employer. Any methods from the previous question that need to be overridden should be overridden! Use super and instanceof as appropriate. I.e., for the following methods you should be able to call the method in the superclass for specific situations (e.g. the compareTo method in the superclass can be called if you receive anything other than an Employee, and this also holds for the equals method). The toString method only needs to append details and as such can also…arrow_forward
