Explanation of Solution

Encapsulation:

  • • It combines the data and code into a single object.
  • • It helps in restricting access to the methods.
  • • This helps in preventing the data from being modified due to accident.
  • • The object’s variable is not directly accessible.
  • • Underscore helps in preventing the data from being accessed directly.

The encapsulation rules in python can be summarized as follows:

Public methodIt is accessible from anywhere.
Public variablesIt can be accessed from anywhere.
Private methodIt can be accessed only in their own class.
Private methodIt is accessible only in their class or method.
  • • It protects the data from being tampered. By declaring the data field as private, direct modifications of properties are prevented.
  • • It makes the class easy to maintain and reduces the errors...

Java - Encapsulation A rectangle can be formed given two points, the top left point and the bottom right point. Assuming that the top left corner of the console is point (0, 0), the bottom right corner of the console is point (MAX, MAX) and given two points (all “x” and “y” coordinates are positive), you should be able to draw the rectangle in the correct location, determine if it is a square or a rectangle, and compute for its area, perimeter and center point. To be able to do this, you should create a class Point (that has an x-coordinate and a y-coordinate). Also, create another class called Rectangle. The Rectangle should have 2 points, the top left and the bottom right. You should also implement the following methods for the Rectangle: display() - draws the rectangle on the console based on the samplearea() - computes and returns the area of a given rectangleperimeter() - computes and returns the perimeter of a given rectanglecenterPoint() - computes and returns the center point…

Transcribed Image Text JAVA Programming Problem: In the game of "Assassin's Creed", you control a ship with a cannon which is attacking a large enemy Assassin's Creed, armed with many guns. Your goal is to destroy as many of the guns as possible. The battle field is a 2D Cartesian grid, where your cannon is located at the origin. The enemy Assassin's Creed is a horizontal line segment located from the coordinates (X1, Y) to (X2, Y). There are exactly (X2 - X1 + 1) guns on the ship, located at the integer points (X1, Y), (X1+1, Y), ..., (X2, Y). However, the problem is, you cannot always fire at a gun. There are supernatural rocks located at all points of the battlefield whose X and Y coordinates are both integers. In order to fire successfully at an enemy's gun, the line connecting your cannon and that gun must not go through any rocks. Develop a JAVA code to output the number of the enemy battleship's guns that your cannon can destroy. Test Case Result 1 2 2 -2
