Chapter 9, Problem 8E
Use the upvoteComment and downvoteComment methods to mark some comments as more or less helpful. Then test the findMostHelpful Comment method. This method should return the comment that was voted most helpful. You will notice that the method returns an object reference. You can use the Inspect function in the method result dialog to check whether the correct comment was returned. Of course, you will need to know which is the correct comment in order to check whether you get the right result.

Complete MyProgram such that you can test all conditions
In the Theater constructor you need to instantiate each seat object based upon the information passed to the constructor, making sure they are available.
In the reassign method, make sure the from and to seat assignments are within range and return false if not.
There is test cases included with this exercise, so when you submit your screenshot, it needs to show the test cases passed.
Copy your previous class definition for RectangularSolid from the previous problem, including both methods.
Provide mutators (setters) and accessors (getters) for each of the three parameters. Use the naming convention for these methods that is demonstrated in your textbook (i.e. do not use the property function or decorators).
These methods should allow a program using your code to modify the parameter values after creation and to read individual parameter values.
You are going to be working with class Rational which defines rational number objects. A rational number is a number that can be written as a fraction. A rational number consists of a numerator and a denominator (which cannot be 0). Rational numbers also have the ability to be displayed in an original form, decimal form or reduced form. You are going to be completing various object methods to perform the tasks previously list.
You are to begin with the Rational Class and RationalTest classes provided. Make all modifications outlined in the point values below. Pay close attention to the names of the attributes, methods and return values. You are given starter files and the test files necessary. Only modify class Rational and keep the function headers provided to you for all of Part 1. You will need to add your own methods for Part 2.
Part 1a
This version requires that you complete the constructor, getOriginal(), and getDecimal() methods of class Rational.

- 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…arrow_forwardAfter completing the methods, use the main method to test them.arrow_forwardYou are to implement removeHead, and removeTail and you also have to create the following functions (for visual purposes of the detail explanation, header and trailer sentinels are described as h and t respectively): IMPORTANT NOTE: For all the methods that has the pos parameter i.e. addAt, removeAt, move, make sure to access that specified position from whichever is nearer - the head or the tail - similar to what we have done in the get method. Example DoublyLinkedList: h <-> 10 <-> 30 <-> 40 <-> 50 <-> t int add(int num) This will add the element num into the last element of the linked list and return the position of the newly-added element. In the above example, having add(60) will return 5 as it is the fifth position in the list. int remove(int num) This will remove the first instance of the element and return the position of the removed element. In the above example, having remove(40) will return 3 as 40 was the third element in the linked list…arrow_forward
- For this lab task, you will work with classes and objects. Create a class named text that works similar to the built-in string class. You will need to define a constructor that can be used to initialize objects of this new class with some literal text. Next, define three methods: to_upper() that will convert all characters to uppercase, reverse() that will reverse the text and length() that will return the length of the text. After you have completed this part, copy the following mainfunction to your code and check if the implementation is correct. int main() { text sample = "This is a sample text"; cout << sample.to_upper(); // This should display "THIS IS A SAMPLE TEXT" cout << endl;cout << sample.reverse(); // This should display "txet elpmas a si sihT"cout << endl; cout << sample.length(); // This should display 21 }arrow_forwardIn this assignment, you will need to add a new method to the Date class, which you can find on D2L in the "Sample Code" section. The new method should make a Date object's day, month, and year value change to the next day. In other words, add one day to the object's current date. Do not use any part of the built-in DateTime class, but you may want to use the DaysInMonth() method from the Date class. Examples: • If the Date object stores the date 12/31/2021, then after calling your method it should store the date 1/1/2022 • If the Date object stores the date 2/28/2022, then after calling your method it should store the date 3/1/2022 As noted in the common instructions, you only need to turn in your new method, not the entire Date class.arrow_forwardTHE BELOW IS IMPORTANT Rewrite the above code so that It has all of the correct access modifiers for good encapsulation. Your code obeys the principle of encapsulation that obliges you to put each method in the proper class. Your code uses NO getters and NO additional classes or methods. You are welcome to modify any existing methods (including signatures and bodies) and/or move them between the existing classes. Your code DOES NOT modify any of the constructors. Important notes: You DO NOT have to write a main method. You DO NOT have to write tests. You DO NOT have to write Javadocs. You DO NOT have to write interfaces to encapsulate data structures. There should be no incorrect syntax or other compile-time errors.arrow_forward
- You are responsible for adding the appropriate testing code to your main. a. The getValedictorian method returns the valedictorian of the class, that is the student with the highest grade point average. Implement this new method. b. The getHonorsPercent method returns the percentage of students in the class who are in the honors program. Use 3.75 as the cutoff GPA. Implement this method. Also print the list of students, by using the isHonor method, in the Honors program. c. An alternate implementation for the School class is being considered, in which the students are stored in an ArrayList instead of an array. Show how the declaration of the data field students would look in this alternate design. MAIN CLASS: import java.util.ArrayList; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Unit07Project2 by Your Name"); System.out.println(); int size = 10; School onw = new School(size); /* Add the code…arrow_forwardIn this exercise, you are going to complete the Rectangle class. You need to complete the class so that you can print and compare two rectangles. Once complete, use the RectangleTester to test the results. In the tester class, you are given 3 rectangles that you should print and compare. Sample results are provided below. Sample output A rectangle with a width of 5 and a height of 4 A rectangle with a width of 5 and a height of 4 A rectangle with a width of 10 and a height of 4 true false =========================================== public class RectangleTester{public static void main(String[] args){Rectangle rect1 = new Rectangle(5, 4);Rectangle rect2 = new Rectangle(5, 4);Rectangle rect3 = new Rectangle(10, 4);// Print all three rectangles// Print one true statement comparing rectangles// Print one false statment comparing rectangles}} =========================================== public class Rectangle{ private int width;private int height;public Rectangle(int width, int height) {}}arrow_forwardIn this activity, you will modify a method (function) to simulate a financial transaction check. Just like when you use your debit card at an ATM. The requested transaction either gets accepted or declined by the bank. By modifying an if-else statement you will be able to perform this check. If the transaction requested cannot be processed due to insufficient funds, tell the user. If the transaction can succeed, then tell the user that that is the case. Your task: Add to the MathMachine.java file so that it has a complete codelblock called the transactionRequest() method. Fill in the Boolean logic in the if statement so that the correct message is sent to the user. Notice the use of this.cardBalance inside the MathMachine class. See how it is private to the MathMachine class? Consider how it might be used in your transactionRequest() method to solve the boolean logic issue. The keyword "this" means "this class". In our example, it means that we're dealing with the MathMachine class.…arrow_forward

Your class should be named Wizard, and you should define the methods below. Hint: if you are using the print or input functions to implement these methods, you are doing it wrong. __init__: Initializes an Wizard object. Takes four parameters: the name of the wizard (a string), their age (an integer), their animal familiar’s name (a string), and their power level (an integer). These are saved in appropriate attributes. In addition, it initializes the following attributes: a Boolean value indicating if the competitor is cursed (initially False ), an integer indicating the number of potions the wizard has (initially 2). __str__: Returns a string summarizing the Wizard object, following the format below exactly: Merlin with Archimedes the Owl (205 power, 2 potions) You should use values derived from attributes in place of the bolded values. __lt__: Compares self to another Wizard object. It returns True…arrow_forwardFinish the TestPlane class that contains a main method that instantiates at least two Planes. Add instructions to instantiate your favorite plane and invoke each of the methods with a variety of parameter values to test each option within each method. To be able to test the functionality of each phase, you will add instructions to the main method in each phase.arrow_forward
