Textbook Question

Chapter 5, Problem 3PC

Rectangle Area—Complete the Program

If you have downloaded the book’s source code from www.pearsonhighered.com/gaddis, you will find a partially written program named AreaRectangle.java in this chapter’s source code folder. Your job is to complete the program. When it is complete, the program will ask the user to enter the width and length of a rectangle, and then display the rectangle’s area. The program calls the following methods, which have not been written:

getLength—This method should ask the user to enter the rectangle’s length, and then return that value as a double.
getWidth—This method should ask the user to enter the rectangle’s width, and then return that value as a double.
getArea—This method should accept the rectangle’s length and width as arguments, and return the rectangle’s area. The area is calculated by multiplying the length by the width.
• displayData—This method should accept the rectangle’s length, width, and area as arguments, and display them in an appropriate message on the screen.

EX2: Write a piece of assembly code that can count the number of ones in word stored at 4AE00h

Write a program that simulates a Magic 8 Ball, which is a fortune-telling toy that displays a random response to a yes or no question. In the student sample programs for this book, you will find a text file named 8_ball_responses.txt. The file contains 12 responses, such as “I don’t think so”, “Yes, of course!”, “I’m not sure”, and so forth. The program should read the responses from the file into a list. It should prompt the user to ask a question, then display one of the responses, randomly selected from the list. The program should repeat until the user is ready to quit. Contents of 8_ball_responses.txt: Yes, of course! Without a doubt, yes. You can count on it. For sure! Ask me later. I'm not sure. I can't tell you right now. I'll tell you after my nap. No way! I don't think so. Without a doubt, no. The answer is clearly NO. (You can access the Computer Science Portal at www.pearsonhighered.com/gaddis.)
