Chapter 15, Problem 20RQE
Soft Skills
22. Suppose that you need to have a class that can sort an array in ascending order or descending order upon request. If an array is already sorted in ascending or descending order, you can easily sort it the other way by reversing it. Now suppose you have two different classes that encapsulate arrays. One provides a member function to reverse its array, while the other provides a member function to sort its array. Can you use multiple inheritance to obtain a quick solution to your problem? Should you? Write a couple of paragraphs explaining whether using multiple inheritance will or will not work to solve this problem, and, if it can, whether this is a good way to solve the problem.

Write a class called Triangle with three private integer data members a, b, and c as the lengths of its three edges. This class should have the following functions: a constructor with three parameters representing the three edges a function isTriangle() which returns true if the three edges are all positive and they satisfy the triangle inequality where a+b> c, a+c> b, b+c> a, otherwise returns false. a function getPerimeter() which returns the perimeter of the triangle. (where, the perimeter = a+b+c)Then, test the above class in a program.
Write code to create a class named as ‘Employee’ with attributes i.e. ID, Name, Designation, Qualification, Salary, Taken-Leaves, Allowed-Leaves and the functions applyLeave().
This function will take number of leaves as an input and check Allowed-Leaves to see whether the employee can take leaves or not. If he can take, deduct these leaves from Allowed-Leaves and add in Taken-Leaves. Otherwise show message ‘you cannot take leave’.
Create another class ‘Intern’ and inherit ‘Employee’ as super class.
This lab will exercise your understanding of some of the concepts covered in Chapter 13:overloading operators
1. Create a class, name of your choice, to represent a college class in which students might register.
a. Create three private member variables:Class Name (to hold values such as CSC210)Number of StudentsClass Hours
b. Overload the >> operator to input, from cin, into the class object, the Class Name and Class Hours
c. Overload the << operator to output all the private member variables
d. Overload the + (plus) operator to add a value to the Number of Students private member variable.This will represent students registering for the class.
e. Overload the - (minus) operator to subtract a value from the Number of Studentsprivate member variable. This will represent students dropping the class.
f. The default constructor should initialize the private member variables appropriately.
2. Write a client program to:
a. Upon program execution, create one class object that…

Certain applications, in addition to hours, minutes, and seconds, might require you to store the time zone. Derive the class extclockType from the class clockType by adding a member variable to store the time zone. Add the necessary member functions and constructors to make the class functional. Also, write the definitions of the member functions and the constructors. Finally, write a test program to test your class.arrow_forwardjava program Create a class Term.

These member variables can be modified with the "Setter functions" SetLength and SetWidth (aka mutator functions) and can be retrieved with the "getter functions" GetLength and GetWidth (aka accessor functions). You will be implementing two member functions of the Rectangle class: Area, and Perimeter. Notice that if a function belongs to a class, when we define the function outside of the class, we indicate that it is a member function of a class using the :: operator. For example, because Area() belongs to the Rectangle class, when we define the function in rectangle.cc, it is written as: int Rectangle::Area() { ... } After implementing these two member functions, you will implement a function, LargestRectangleByArea that compares two input Rectangle objects and returns which of the two is larger, based on its area. Implement the member function Area that…arrow_forwardFollowing the instructions presented in the Lecture 4.5 and 4.6, complete the class Bag we discussed in the lectures.
