A __________ is a constructor that accepts no arguments.
(Date Class) Create a class called Date that includes three pieces of information as datamembers—a month (type int), a day (type int) and a year (type int). Your class should have a constructor with three parameters that uses the parameters to initialize the three data members. For thepurpose of this exercise, assume that the values provided for the year and day are correct, but ensurethat the month value is in the range 1–12; if it isn’t, set the month to 1. Provide a set and a get function for each data member. Provide a member function displayDate that displays the month, dayand year separated by forward slashes (/). Write a test program that demonstrates class Date’s capabilities.
Question
Create a class called Quadratic for performing arithmetic on and solving quadratic equations. A quadratic equation is an equation of the form
ax2 + bx + c = 0
Where a !=0. Use double variables to represent the values of a, b, and c and provide a constructor that enables objects of this class to be initialized when they are created. Give default values of a = 1, b = 0, and c = 0. Create a char variable called variable to represent the variable used in the equation and give it a default value of x. The constructor should not allow the value of a to be 0. If 0 is given, assign 1 to a). Provide public member functions that perform the following tasks.
add—adds two Quadratic equations by adding the corresponding values of a, b, and c.
The function takes another object of type Quadratic as its parameter and adds it to the calling object.
subtract—subtracts two Quadratic equations by subtracting corresponding values of a, b, and…

- C# (Odd or Even) Write an app that reads an integer, then determines and displays whether it’s odd or even. (Hints: use the remainder operator) (Multiples) Write an app that reads two integers, determines whether the first is a multiple of the second, and displays the result. (Hints: use the remainder operator). Create a class called Date that includes three pieces of information as auto-implemented properties: a month (type int), a day (type int), and a year (type int). Your class should have a constructor that initializes the three fields. Provide a method DisplayDate() that displays the three fields (separated by '/').

Design a "Tips" class that calculates the gratuity on a restaurant meal. Its only class member variable, "taxRate", should be set by a one-parameter constructor to whatever rate is passed to it when a "Tips" object is created. If no argument is passed, a default tax rate of .085 should be used. The class should have just one public function, "computeTip". This function needs to accept two arguments, the total bill amount and the tip rate. It should use the total bill amount, along with the value stored in the "taxRate" member variable, to compute the cost of the meal before the tax was added. It should then apply the tip rate to just the meal cost portion of the bill to compute and return the tip amount. Demonstrate the class by creating a program that creates a single "Tips" object, and then has a sentinel-controlled loop to let the user retrieve the correct tip amount using various bill totals and desired tip rates.arrow_forwardQ2.
