Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 13.9, Problem 13.20CP
Explanation of Solution
Destructor:
- This is a function which is used to abolish the objects.
- This carries the name of the class with a prior “tilde” symbol.
- After using a constructor, declaring a destructor is a good practice.
- Destructor does not take any argument with it.
- A destructor does not declared with a return type and thus it does not return anything.
A destructor is called when:
- The program ends or the function ends...

9. Trivia Game
In this programming exercise, you will create a simple trivia game for two players. The program will work like this:
Starting with player 1, each player gets a turn at answering 5 trivia questions. (There should be a total of 10 questions.) When a question is displayed, 4 possible answers are also displayed. Only one of the answers is correct, and if the player selects the correct answer, he or she earns a point.
After answers have been selected for all the questions, the program displays the number of points earned by each player and declares the player with the highest number of points the winner.
To create this program, write a Question class to hold the data for a trivia question. The Question class should have attributes for the following data:
A trivia question
Possible answer 1
Possible answer 2
Possible answer 3
Possible answer 4
The number of the correct answer (1, 2, 3, or 4)
The Question class also should have an appropriate _…

For example, the number 5 is prime because it can be evenly divided by only 1 and 5. The number 6, however, is not prime because it can be evenly divided by 1, 2, 3, and 6. Write a Boolean method named IsPrime that takes an integer as an argument and returns true if the argument is a prime number or false otherwise. Use the method in an application that lets the user enter a number and then displays a message indicating whether the number is prime.arrow_forwardOrder check Write a program OrderCheck.java that takes four int command-line arguments w, x, y, and z.

Then, display the boolean variable value.arrow_forward
- Rules: Corner cases. By convention, the row and column indices are integers between 0 and n − 1, where (0, 0) is the upper-left site. Throw an IllegalArgumentException if any argument to open(), isOpen(), or isFull() is outside its prescribed range. Throw an IllegalArgumentException in the constructor if n ≤ 0. Unit testing. Your main() method must call each public constructor and method directly and help verify that they work as prescribed (e.g., by printing results to standard output). Performance requirements. The constructor must take Θ(n^2) time; all instance methods must take Θ(1)Θ(1) time plus Θ(1)Θ(1) calls to union() and find().arrow_forwardmport java.util.Scanner; public class ParkingCharges { // function to calculate the basic charge using the asked hours static double getBasicCharge(int hours) { if (hours >= 7 && hours <= 8) return 5.50; else if (hours >= 5 && hours <= 6) return 4.50; else if (hours >= 2 && hours <= 4) return 4.00; return 3.00; } // function to return the amount to subtract based on local living and OAP static double getDiscount(String isLocal, String isOAP) { if (isOAP.equals("Yes") && isLocal.equals("Yes")) return 2.0 + 1.0; else if (isOAP.equals("Yes")) return 2.0; else if (isLocal.equals("Yes")) return 1.0; return 0; } public static void main(String[] args) { // create a new Scanner object Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in); // prompt the user to ask if they are disabled…arrow_forwardAssignment 4 - Car Maintenance This assignment will assess your understanding of void and value returning static methods. Your cousin owns an automotive maintenance shop that performs routine maintenance on cars. He has asked you to write a program that will provide a list of services (and their respective prices) to users and allow them to choose any, or all, services they would like and display the final price, including a 28% labor charge, a 9% markup if the car is an import, and an 8% sales tax. Task To accomplish the above, do the following: • Write the two methods outlined below. • Test your program and screenshot your successful test. carMaintenance method This method should accept the make of the car as a parameter (e.g., BMW, Ford, Ferrari, etc.). It should display the services and their prices as follows: Services: Oil Change, Tune up, Brake Job, Transmission Service, respectively: 59.99, 111.99, 189.99, 149.99 These should be stored in parallel arrays.

- C++ Stars This lab exercise will practice creating objects with constructors and destructors and demonstrate when constructors and destructors are called. Star Class Create a class, Star. A Star object has two member variables: its name, and a solar radius. This class should have a constructor which takes a std::string, the name of the star, and a double, the solar radius of the star. In the constructor, the Star class should print to the terminal that the star was born. For example, if you create a Star as follows: Star my_star("Saiph", 22.2); Then the constructor should print: The star Saiph was born. In the destructor, the Star class should print to the terminal that the star was destroyed, along with the number of times the volume of the sun that that star was, formatted to two decimal places. Hint: use the following line to set the precision to 2 decimal places: std::cout << std::fixed << std::setprecision(2); For example, when my_star above has its destructor called,…arrow_forwardJava Questions - (Has 2 Parts).
