Invoking a Method:

User can invoke a method by using the following ways:

  • First, the class’s object name should be given followed by a dot operator which is again followed by the method name. At last a set of parentheses should be given which can have arguments. The method call is finally terminated with a semicolon.

Example:

Consider a class named “student” and its object named “studInput”. Consider a method called “getInformation ()” which can be invoked by

//Invoke a method for given object

studInput.getInformation();

Write in python. Write a class named Employee that has **private** data members for an employee's name, ID_number, salary, and email_address. It should have an init method that takes four values and uses them to initialize the data members. It should have get methods named get_name, get_ID_number, get_salary, and get_email_address.Write a separate function (not part of the Employee class) named **make_employee_dict** that takes as parameters a list of names, a list of ID numbers, a list of salaries and a list of email addresses (which are all the same length). The function should take the first value of each list and use them to create an Employee object. It should do the same with the second value of each list, etc. to the end of the lists. As it creates these objects, it should add them to a dictionary, where the key is the ID number and the value for that key is the whole Employee object. The function should return the resulting dictionary.For example, it could be used like…
