Textbook Question
Chapter 6.5, Problem 40STQ
Give the definitions of three accessor methods that you can use instead of the single accessor method getFirst within the definition of the class PetPair in Listing 6.18. One method will return the pet’s name, one will return the pet’s age, and one will return the pet’s weight. These new accessor methods will not produce the problem described in this section. They will return all of the data in an object of the class PetPair, but will not return any object whose mutator methods can change its state.

A. Writing an Interface
In this problem you will first write an interface and then modify classes to implement the interface. Write an interface, GeometricSolid, which has one method, volume. The volume method takes no arguments and returns a double.
You are provided with three classes: Cylinder, Sphere, and RightCircularCone Modify the classes so that they implement the GeometricSolid interface. Supply the appropriate method for each class. You can use Google search to find the formula for the volume. Make sure that you use Math.PI in your calculations.
Notice in InterfaceRunner that the objects are added to an ArrayList of GeometricSolids.

Must be written in Python. Please include docstring and show how output should look like. Remember that all data members should be private. An object can access it's own private data members directly. It can also access the private data members of other objects of the same class directly. But when accessing a private data member of an object of another class, it needs to call the appropriate get method. If that sounds complicated, just remember this: if a method is in the same class as a private data member, then it can access that data member directly, otherwise, it needs to use a get method.
Write a class named Point that has two data members, x_coord and y_coord, representing the two coordinates of the point. It should have:
an init method that takes two arguments, an x-coordinate and y-coordinate (in that order), and uses them to initialize the two data members.
get methods for the two data members: get_x_coord and get_y_coord.
a method named distance_to that takes a Point object…
This is the question that is confusing me -
A. Create a CollegeCourse class. The class contains fields for the course ID (for example, CIS 210), credit hours (for example, 3), and a letter grade (for example, A). Include get and set methods for each field. Create a Student class containing an ID number and an array of five CollegeCourse objects.
Create a get and set method for the Student ID number. Also create a get method that returns one of the Student’s CollegeCourses; the method takes an integer argument and returns the CollegeCourse in that position (0 through 4). Next, create a set method that sets the value of one of the Student’s CollegeCourse objects; the method takes two arguments—a CollegeCourse and an integer representing the CollegeCourse’s position (0 through 4).
B. Write an application that prompts a professor to enter grades for five different courses each for 10 students. Prompt the professor to enter data for one student at a time, including student ID and course…

- Take the tax program from the last homework assignment and implement it using classes and objects instead. To do so, create a class definition for a class called Customer with attributes income and tax. It should also have a set method for income, and a calcTax() method to assign tax and return it. As a reminder, the tax is calculated as follows: Income Tax Due $0 - $50,000 5% $50,000-$100,000 $2,500 + 10% of (income > $50,000) > $100,000 $7,500 + 15% of (income > $100,000) Create a Customer object in main, have the user enter the income and assign this to the income variable of the Customer object, and then call the calcTax() method for the Customer object and print the tax due.arrow_forwardP1. 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…arrow_forwardDesign and implement a data class. The class will store data that has been read asuser input from the keyboard (see Getting Input below), and provide necessary operations. As the data stored relates to monetary change, the class should be named Change. The class requires at least 2 instance variables for the name of a person and the coin change amount to be given to that person. You may also wish to use 4 instance variables to represent amounts for each of the 4 coin denominations (see Client Class below). There should be no need for more than these instance variables. However, if you wish to use more instance variables, you must provide legitimate justification for their usage in the internal and external documentation. Your class will need to have at least a default constructor, and a constructor with two parameters: one parameter being a name and the other a coin amount. Your class should also provide appropriateget and set methods for client usage. Other methods may be provided as…arrow_forward
- Write a class Point for 2D Cartesian co-ordinates. The class should have 2 fields: abscissa(x) and ordinately). The class should have a method which takes a Point object as parameter and finds the distance between the two points (calling object & argument). The class should also have a static method that takes 2 point objects and returns their midpoint as a new Point object. (No driver class or no other methods required) The distance (d) between 2 points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by: d = (x1 – x2)2 + (y1 – y2)² The midpoint (x3, y3) between 2 points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by: x3 = (x1+x2)/2 y3 = (y1+y2)/2arrow_forwardIn this assignment, you will implement a series of functions and classes you will need for the upcoming Ghost project. Please do your best job on this assignment as early as possible. As you will depend on the code in this assignment in the ghost project. You will be given two interfaces and two abstract classes, FileTextReader, FileTextWriter, AbstractFileMonitor, and AbstractDictionary. Your job is to create two classes the first class should be named FileManager, the second class should be named Dictionary. The FileManager will implement the interfaces FileTextReader and FileTextWriter and extend the class AbstractFileMonitor. Your class signature would look something like the following: public class FileManager extends AbstractFileMonitor implements FileTextReader, FileTextWriter{... The constructor signature of the FileManager should look like the following: public FileManager(String filePath){... The Dictionary will extend the abstract class AbstractDictionary. Your class…arrow_forwardWrite a program that defines a class with a data member to holds a “serial number” for each object created from the class. That is, the first object created will be numbered 1, the second 2, and so on. To do this, you’ll need another data member that records a count of how many objects have been created so far. (This member should apply to the class as a whole; not to individual objects. What keyword specifies this?) Then, as each object is created, its constructor can examine this count member variable to determine the appropriate serial number for the new object. Add a member function that permits an object to report its own serial number. Then write a main() program that creates three objects and queries each about its serial number. They should respond I am object number 2, and so on. This question related to Object oriented programming in c++arrow_forward

Each file should only have one class and the class should share the same name as the file. We are going to implement the following classes: Employee - This class represent the employee. It needs the following fields exposed via getters and setters: Employee ID (hard code it to 1) First name, last name, middle initial Address, city, zip Phone, email Hourly rate PayPeriod - This class represents an employee's payment information. An employee will eventually have more than one pay period. It needs the following fields exposed via getters and setters: Pay period Id (hard code to 123456) Employee Id Start date, end date Number of hours PayrollManager - This class provides the functionality we need to compute and display the payroll. It should implement the following methods: double CalculateGrossPay (Employee, PayPeriod) - this should return the total gross for the…arrow_forwardGoal 1: Update the Fractions Class Here we will overload two functions that will used by the Recipe class later: multipliedBy, dividedBy Previously, these functions took a Fraction object as a parameter. Now ADD an implementation that takes an integer as a parameter. The functionality remains the same: Instead of multiplying/dividing the current object with another Fraction, it multiplies/divides with an integer (affecting numerator/denominator of the returned object). For example; a fraction 2/3 when multiplied by 4 becomes 8/3. Similarly, a fraction 2/3 when divided by 4 becomes 1/6. Goal 2: Update the Recipe Class The Recipe constructors so far did not specify how many servings the recipe is for. We will now add a private member variable of type int to denote the serving size and initialize it to 1. This means all recipes are initially constructed for a single serving. Update the overloaded extraction operator (<<) to include the serving size (see sample output below for an…arrow_forwardGoal 1: Update the Fractions Class Here we will overload two functions that will used by the Recipe class later: multipliedBy, dividedBy Previously, these functions took a Fraction object as a parameter.

- Write a class(named FloatArray) that implements the FloatArrayADT interface with one constructor: A constructor that accepts an int value indicating the length of the array. Create the class FloatArrayTest to test your implementation. FloatArrayADT programming requirements: Do not make any modifications. FloatArray class programming requirements: Only one member field, which is private and not static. Only one constructor. Only the methods in the FloatArrayADT interface. The methods have no variables. No throw statements. FloatArrayTest class programming recommendations: Use a separate (static) method for each test case. Develop one test case at a time. Write helper methods to support your testing, when needed. Test cases: You should verify that all of the following conditions execute correctly: Verify a constructor with (a) length < 0 (b) a length of 0 (c) a length > 0 Verify get with (a) an index < 0 (b) 0 <= index <= length-1 (c) length <= index.…arrow_forwardWrite in python and please include docstring. Write a class named Employee that has private data members for an employee's name, ID_number, salary, and email_address. It should have an init method that takes four values and uses them to initialize the data members. It should have get methods named get_name, get_ID_number, get_salary, and get_email_address. Write a separate function (not part of the Employee class) named make_employee_dict that takes as parameters a list of names, a list of ID numbers, a list of salaries and a list of email addresses (which are all the same length). The function should take the first value of each list and use them to create an Employee object. It should do the same with the second value of each list, etc. to the end of the lists. As it creates these objects, it should add them to a dictionary, where the key is the ID number and the value for that key is the whole Employee object. The function should return the resulting dictionary. For example, it…arrow_forwardCreate a class BeautyProduct with name, color, brand.

Provide Constructors, getters, setters and an apply() method whenever this method is called a beauty item is applied and its volume decreases by 10.This should also check that volume must not be zero if it then u have to throw exception. Also write toString method which prints all details like name, color, brand, price, texture and volume. Create another class foundation having totalVolume, remainingVolume, price, texture (liquid, cake) and lastingTime (number of hours foundation remain intact on face and does not crease) as private data members.
