Chapter 4, Problem 5PP
Define a class called WordCount whose objects count the number of words in a sentence. An object of this class maintains a variable count that is a nonnegative integer. Include methods to set the counter to 0, to increase the count by 1, and to decrease the count by 1 if any word encountered starts with 'A' or 'a'. Be sure that no method allows the value of the counter to become negative. Include an accessor method that returns the current count value and a method that outputs the count to the screen. There should be no input method or other mutator methods. The only method that can set the counter is the one that sets it to 0. Write a

Implement a toString method for the following class that returns a string containing the class name and the names and values of all instance variables.
Write a Java program with at least two classes. Use a circle object to represent it. The class must offer at least one (non-static) setter method and one (non-static) getter method. Implement at least one test that invokes the setter method and the corresponding getter method so that the value out == the value in. Also use assert.Equal(60, circle1.getCircumference(), 10); and assert.Equals(10, circle1.get Radius(), 0.1); for radius
Implement a class Season that represents a season during a specified year. For purposes of thisproblem, assume that the seasons in each year are, in order, 'Winter', 'Spring', 'Summer', 'Autumn' .__init__, __repr__A Season object is created by calling the constructor and supplying two optional arguments:1. season, defaults to 'Winter'2. calendar year, an int , defaults to 2023For the __repr__ , see the usage below:
The next and prev methods modify a Season object by changing it to the next season or previousseason in sequence, respectively. Note that the seasons can "roll over" or "roll back" and that this maychange the year by +/-1. 1. During each year, the seasons occur in this sequence: 'Winter', 'Spring', 'Summer', 'Autumn' 2. next - change to next season, if the current season is Autumn then year will increase by 1 3. prev - change to previous season, if Winter then year will decrease by 1
Implement the == operator ( __eq__ method) to compare two Season…

You aren't likely to manage to make this look as good as the output of printDescendants, but each line should include some indication how many generations up the tree the ancestor is.
