Program Plan Intro
Generic Class:
- It is a class in which the class name is followed by the type parameter section.
- In generic class, one or more type arguments are separated by commas.
- The programmers are enabled to specify a single class declaration with a set of related type.

TRUE OR FALSE
A method that uses a generic class parameter can be static or dynamic.
Write a generic class Students.java which has a constructor that takes three parameters – id, name, and type. Type will represent if the student is ‘remote’ or ‘in-person’. A toString() method in this class will display these details for any student. A generic method score() will be part of this class and it will be implemented by inherited classes. Write accessors and mutators for all data points.
Â
Write two classes RemoteStudents.java and InPersonStudents.java that inherits from Student class. Show the use of constructor from parent class (mind you, RemoteStudents have one additional parameter – discussion). Implement the abstract method score() of the parent class to calculate the weighted score for both types of students.

(Generic Method IsEqualTo) Write a simple generic version of method IsEqualTo that compares its two arguments with the Equals method, and returns true if they’re equal and false otherwise. Use this generic method in a program that calls IsEqualTo with a variety of simple types, such as object or int. What result do you get when you attempt to run this program?

This class could be used for simulating a random drawing. For example, the box might contain Strings representing names written on a slip of paper, or the box might contain Integers representing a random drawing for a lottery based on numeric lottery picks. Create an add method that allows the user of the class to add an object of the specified type along with an isEmpty method that determines whether or not the box is empty. Finally, your class should have a drawItem method that randomly selects an object from the box and returns it. If the user attempts to drawn an item out of an empty box, return null.
