Chapter 7, Problem 4PP
Define a class called Administrator, which is a derived class of the class SalariedEmployee in Display 7.5. You are to supply the following additional instance variables and methods:
An instance variable of type String that contains the administrator's title (such
as "Director" or "Vice President").
An instance variable of type String that contains the administrator's area of responsibility (such as "Production", "Accounting", or "Personnel").
An instance variable of type String that contains the name of this administrator's immediate supervisor.
Suitable constructors, and suitable accessor and mutator methods.
A method for reading in an administrator's data from the keyboard.
Override the definitions for the methods equals and tostring so they are appropriate to the class Administrator.
Also, write a suitable test

Give a complete definition of a class called TitledPerson, which youderive from the class Person in Listing 8.1. The class TitledPerson hasone additional String instance variable for a title, such as Ms., Mr.,or The Honorable. The class TitledPerson has two constructors: adefault constructor and one that sets both the name and the title. It hasa writeOutput method, a reset method, an equals method, an accessormethod getTitle that returns the title, and a mutator method setTitlethat changes the person’s title. For two titled people to be equal, theymust have the same name and the same title. You may want to use theclass Student in Listing 8.2 as a model.
Write a Java program:
In the board game Scrabble, each tile contains a letter, which is used to spell words in rows and columns, and a score, which is used to determine the value of words. The point of this exercise is to practice the mechanical part of creating a new class definition:
Write a definition for a class named Tile that represents Scrabble tiles. The instance variables should be a character named "letter" and an integer named "value".
Write a constructor that takes parameters named letter and value, and initializes the instance variables.
Create getters for both of the attributes. (No setters, so that a Tile is immutable.)
Implement the .toString() and .equals methods for a Tile.
5. Given the Java Point class (which contains two private variables x and y and constructors that allows creating a point object with known x and y values as well as other methods such as equals( ), toString( ) etc),
(a). define a new class called Circle that contains private two variables: center which is a Point object from the Point class and radius which is of type double. The Circle class must have the following methods:
(b). add a constructor which creates a circle object using a center point with x and y values and a radius as its parameters.
(c). add a default constructor. (
(d). add an equals() method that can compare if any object is equal to a Circle object (two circle objects are equal if they have the same center point with the same radius).
(e). add a toString() method that prints a Circle object with the center point and radius.

- First, you need to design, code in Java, test and document a base class, Student. The Student class will have the following information, and all of these should be defined as Private: A first name (given name) A last name (family name/surname) Student number (ID) – an integer number (of type long) The Student class will have at least the following constructors and methods: (i) two constructors - one without any parameters (the default constructor), and one with parameters to give initial values to all the instance variables of Student. (ii) only necessary set and get methods for a valid class design. (iii) a reportGrade method, which you have nothing to report here, you can just print to the screen a message “There is no grade here.”. This method will be overridden in the respective child classes.

A character instance variable representing a separator (to be used for printing purposes) is also part of the class.

The setNames() method sets the names stored in the object i.e. the values of firstName, middleName, lastName.2. The getFullName() method obtains the name of the student with the middle name converted to an initial only.3.

Also, supplymethods for setting the name, setting the age, getting the name and getting theage.The class should not contain I/O methods; input of values to the instancevariables must be done with a set method or constructor, output of values fromthe instance variables must be done with get methods.
