Modify the student class presented in this chapter as follows. Each student object should also contain the scores for three tests. Provide a constructor that sets all instance values based on parameter values. Overload the constructor such that each test score is assumed to be initially zero. Provide a method called setTestScore that accepts two parameters: the test number (1 through 3) and the score. Also provide a method called getTestScore that accepts the test number and returns the appropriate score Provide a method called average that computes and returns the average test score for this student. Modify the toString method such that the test scores and average are included in the description of the student. Modify the driver class main method to exercise the new Student methods.

P1.
In this question, you are provided a completed superclass – Shape (Do not make
any changes to this class!). This class represents generic shapes and has several methods
that you will have to override in the Circle and Rectangle subclasses, whose code skeletons
are provided as well. You are required to complete these two classes so that they can correctly
describe and calculate their attributes.
For the Circle class, create the following:
A private double instance variable m radius.
A constructor that takes two parameters (in the order of color, radius). It should use the
parameter for radius to set the m_radius instance variable and then explicitly call the
parent class constructor using the super keyword and pass in the color parameter.
A method that overrides the calcArea method of the superclass and calculates the area
of the circle. The area of a circle can be calculated as 3.14 x r² (where r is the radius).
A method that overrides the calcPerimeter method of the superclass and…
2A. Create a Date class with three integer instance variables named day, month, year. It has a
constructor with three parameters for initializing the instance variables, and it has one method
named daysSinceJan1(). It computes and returns the number of days since January1ofthe same
year, including January 1 and the day in the Date object. For example, if day is a Date object with
day = 1, month = 3, and year = 2000, then the call date.daysSinceJan1( ) should return 61 since
there are 61 days between the dates of January 1, 2000, and March 1, 2000, including January1
and March 1. Include a DateDemo class that tests the Date class. Don't forget leap years.

- 1A. Create a Die class with one integer instance variable called sideUp. Give it a constructor and a getSideUp() method that returns the value of sideUp and a void roll() method that changes sideUp to a random value from 1 to 6. [Note: To generate a random integer between 1 and 6, use Math.random() method] Then create a DieDemo class with a main method that creates two Die objects, rolls them, and then prints the sum of the two sides up.arrow_forwardThe following is a class definition for a simple Ebook. Two instance variables and one parameterless constructor are provided. Part 1: Write a second constructor that takes a String array of pages as input and sets the String array instance variable equal to the input. Continue to default the current page number to zero. Part 2: Write a getter and a setter method for the page number variable. The setter should check to make sure that the input is a valid page number and only update the variable if the new value is valid. Part 3: Write a getCurrentPage method that returns the String of the current page indexed by current_page. public class Ebook{ private String[] pages; private int current_page; //constructor public Ebook() { this.pages = {"See Spot.", "See Spot run.", "Run, Spot, run."}; this.current_page = 0; }}arrow_forwardCreate a method "public void giveRaise(int percentage)" in the Employee class. This method should increase the salary member by the percentage specified in the parameter. In the main method: 1. Create an Employee object. Print out its toString() result. Call giveRaise with 10%. 2. Print out its toString() result.arrow_forward
- Create a class called Invoice that a hardware store might use to represent an invoice for an item sold at the store. An Invoice should include four pieces of information as instance variable Part number(type String) Part description(type String) Quantity of the item being purchased (type int) Price per item (double). Your class should have a constructor that initializes the four instance variables. Provide a set and a get method for each instance variable. In addition, provide a method named getInvoice Amount that calculates the invoice amount (i.e., multiplies the quantity by the price per item), then returns the amount as a double value. If the quantity is not positive, it should be set to 0. If the price per item is not positive, it should be set to 0.0. Write a test application named InvoiceTest that demonstrates class Invoice’s capabilities.arrow_forwardCreate a class called Date that includes three instance variables-a month (type int), a day (type int) and a year (type int). Provide a constructor that initializes the three instance variables and assumes that the values provided are correct. Provide a set and a get method for each instance variable. Provide a method displayDate that displays the month, day and year separated by forward slashes (/). Add a main method to the class that demonstrates class Date's capabilities.arrow_forwardWrite a method toString() for the Cow class which displays information about a Cow object. The method should consider the following: • If the Cow's stomach value is 100, the output should say that the Cow is full • If the Cow's stomach value is below 100 but above 50, no information about the Cow's stomach should be given • If the Cow's stomach value is below 50 but above 10, the output should mention that the cow is hungry • If the Cow's stomach value is below 10, the output should mention that the cow is starving. Example output: First Cow is full. Second Cow Third Cow is hungry. Fourth Cow is starving!arrow_forward
- Create a class Rectangle. The class has attribute length and width, each of which defaults to 1. It has methods that calculate the perimeter and area of the rectangle. It has set and get methods for both length and width. The set method should verify that length and width are each floating-point numbers larger than 0.0 and less than 20.0. Write a program to test class Rectanglearrow_forwardCreate one more method in the Starship class: encounter(self, enemy_ship) This method takes in self, along with another Starship object. The method should simulate a battle between the two ships. How the method is implemented is almost entirely up to you. You could take in user input for each crew member, or have them each act randomly from the available options, or specify exactly what a given crew member of each type should do. The only requirements are as follows: Each crew member on each ship should get at least one “turn” before the battle is complete. If the crew member is Injured on their turn, they should do nothing. You may assume that each ship will have at least one crew member uninjured when the encounter begins. You shouldn’t make any assumptions about how many crew members there will be on a given ship, where they will start, or about which subclasses will be present - it’s possible that you’ll have test cases including a ship with no captain, or no doctor.…arrow_forwardCreate a class called Employee that includes three pieces of information as instance variables—a first name (typeString), a last name (typeString) and a monthly salary (double).Provide a set and a get method for each instance variable.Keep in mind you should get values from user.There should be a method called calculateSalary() witch deducts the income tax from the salary on the following basis: 20% income tax if the salary is above Rs 30000. 15% income tax if the salary is between Rs.20000 and Rs.30000. 10% income tax if the salary is below Rs. 20000.

Create a specialized method that will allow the class to compare other rectangle objects. The comparison should identify the larger rectangle according to the object’s area. You should be able to implement the class where the user provides rectangle dimensions. The program should be able to display which of the rectangle inputs is larger using the Rectangle class method that you defined. Sample output: Enter Length R1: 1 Enter Width R1: 1 Enter Length R2: 2 Enter Width R2: 2 Results: R1 Area: 1 R1 Sum: 2 R2 Area: 4 R2 Sum: 4 R2 is the bigger Rectangle!

Your class should have a constructor that initializes the three instance variables. Provide a set and a get method for each and every instance variable. In addition, provide a method named computeLetterGrade that returns the letter grade obtained by the student taking the pointsObtained as an argument. For the grading policy refer to CSC 110 grading scheme specified in syllabus.
