You are required to build a class ArithematicProblem that represent a binary arithematic problem such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The ArithematicProblem class is a super class which is there to provide the most generic version of the ArithematicProblem concept.
You are required to build a class ArithematicProblem that represent a binary
arithematic problem such as addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
The ArithematicProblem class is a super class which is there to provide the most
generic version of the ArithematicProblem concept. This class has following
instance variables
1. Operator1 (double)
2. Operator2 (double)
3. Answer(double)
4. Error(boolean)
The value of Operator1 and Operator2 will be initialized through parameters in the
constructor while the value of answer is Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY and error is false
by default.
Provide getters for all but setters for only operand1 and operand2
Provide the toString method so that the string representation of each operation
the standard representation in mathematics i.e. if its an addition problem then it
should be printed as 2 + 3 = 5 and so on.
Provide a method double solve() in this class. This method performs the arithematic
operation on the operands, calculates answer, sets the value of answer and returns it. If an error occurs
in the calculation then the error is set to true and answer remains Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY. Since in
the super class ArithematicProblem, we do not know what to do (beccause it is not one of the standard
4 operations), you will simply return the answer (Double.POSITIVE_INFINITY)
Now provide the subclasses AdditionProblem, SubtractionProblem,
MultiplicationProblem and DivisionProblem. All of these class inherit from
ArithematicProblem. Provide appropriate constructors and the toString method.
Now override the solve method in each of these class to do the appropriate
operation. i.e. If it is AdditionProblem then you will add the operands in the solve
method, set the answer to the sum obtained and return this value.
In subtraction you will do subtration and multiplication the product. However, in division, you will
perform the division but if the divisor i.e. the second operand is 0 then the division goes into error. So
you will check for this situation and if the divisor is 0 then you will not solve, rather set the error to true
and return the answer unchanged. (I.e. POSITIVE_INFINITY, the default value).
