Chapter 7, Problem 1PC
Date
Design a class called Date that has integer data members to store month, day, and year. The class should have a three-parameter default constructor that allows the date to be set at the time a new Date object is created. If the user creates a Date object without passing any arguments, or if any of the values passed are invalid, the default values of 1, 1, 2001 (i.e., January 1, 2001) should be used. The class should have member functions to print the date in the following formats:
3/15/16
March 15, 2016
15 March 2016

(Date Class) Create a class called Date that includes three pieces of information as datamembers—a month (type int), a day (type int) and a year (type int). Your class should have a constructor with three parameters that uses the parameters to initialize the three data members. For thepurpose of this exercise, assume that the values provided for the year and day are correct, but ensurethat the month value is in the range 1–12; if it isn’t, set the month to 1. Provide a set and a get function for each data member. Provide a member function displayDate that displays the month, dayand year separated by forward slashes (/). Write a test program that demonstrates class Date’s capabilities.
Employee and ProductionWorker Classes
Create an Employee class that has properties for the following data:
Employee name
Employee number
Next, create a class named ProductionWorker that is derived from the Employee class. The ProductionWorker class should have properties to hold the following data:
Shift number (an integer, such as 1, 2, or 3)
Hourly pay rate
The workday is divided into two shifts: day and night. The Shift property will hold an integer value representing the shift that the employee works. The day shift is shift 1 and the night shift is shift 2.
Create an application that creates an object of the ProductionWorker class and lets the user enter data for each of the object’s properties. Retrieve the object’s properties and display their values.
Circle Class (Easy)
Write a Circle class that has the following member variables:
radius : a double
The class should have the following member functions:
Default Constructor: default constructor that sets radius to 0.0.
Constructor: accepts the radius of the circle as an argument.
setRadius: an mutator function for the radius variable.
getRadius: an accessor function for the radius variable.
getArea: returns the area of the circle, which is calculated as area = pi * radius * radius
getCircumference: returns the circumference of the circle, which is calculated as circumference = 2 * pi * radius
Step1: Create a declaration of the class.
Step2: Write a program that demonstrates the Circle class by asking the user for the circle’s radius, creating
Circle objects, and then reporting the circle’s area, and circumference.
You should create at least two circle objects, one sets the radius to 0.0 and one accepts the radius as an…

Your class should have a constructor that initializes the fourdata members. A constructor that receives multiple arguments is defined with the form:ClassName( TypeName1 parameterName1, TypeName2 parameterName2, ... )Provide a set and a get function for each data member. In addition, provide a member functionnamed getInvoiceAmount that calculates the invoice amount (i.e., multiplies the quantity by theprice per item), then returns the amount as an int value.

- Create a class called time. The time class has three private data members of type int, named hours, minutes and seconds. • Provide a no‐argument constructor for the class which initializes the data members to 0. • Provide another constructor which sets the data members to the values passed from the main. It should also validate whether the values are correct i.e., hours should be between 0 and 23 (inclusive), minutes should be between 0 and 60 (inclusive) and seconds should also be between 0 and 60 (inclusive). If an invalid value is entered, the constructor should automatically change it to 0. • Write a function getTime() which asks the user to input the values for hours, minutes and seconds. While taking the input values, it must also validate the input values as in the above case. • Write a function displayTime() which displays the time in the format 11:39:45 i.e. hours:minutes:seconds. • Write a function totaltime () that adds two objects of type Time passed as…arrow_forwardDesign a class called Date that has integer data members to store month , day, and year. The class should have two constructors; a default constructor that accepts no parameters, and a three-parameter constructor that allows the date to be set by the programmer. If the user creates a Date object without passing any arguments, or if any of the values passed are invalid, the default values of 1, 1, 2001 (i.e., January 1, 2001) should be used. The class should have three (3) member functions to print the date in the following formats: 3/15/16 March 15, 2016 15 March 2016 Demonstrate the class by writing a program that uses it. Be sure your program only accepts reasonable values for month and day. The month should be between 1 and 12. The day should be between 1 and the number of days in the selected month.

- (Rational Numbers) Create a class called Rational for performing arithmetic with fractions. Write a program to test your class. Use integer variables to represent the private instance variables of the class—the numerator and the denominator. Provide a constructor that enables an object of this class to be initialized when it's declared. The constructor should store the fraction in reduced form. The fraction 2/4 is equivalent to 1/2 and would be stored in the object as 1 in the numerator and 2 in the denominator. Provide a no-argument constructor with default values in case no initializers are provided. Provide public methods that perform each of the following operations: a) Add two Rational numbers: The result of the addition should be stored in reduced form. Implement this as a static method. b) Subtract two Rational numbers: The result of the subtraction should be stored in reduced form. Implement this as a static method.…arrow_forwardconsole application named SalesTransactionDemo that declares several SalesTransaction objects and dispplays their values and their sum.

Once constructor accepts values for the name, sales amount, and rate, and when the sales value is set, the constructor computes the commission as sales value time commission rate. The second constructor accepts a name and sales amount, but sets the commission rate to 0. The third constructor accepts a name and sets all other fields to 0.

You will then take the two Bubble objects and combine them to create a new, larger combined Bubble object. This will be done using functions that take in these Bubble objects as parameters. The Bubble class contains one data member, radius_, and the corresponding accessor and mutator methods for radius_, GetRadius and SetRadius. Create a member function called CalculateVolume that computes for the volume of a bubble (sphere). Use the value 3.1415 for PI. Your main function has some skeleton code that asks the user for the radius of two bubbles. You will use this to create the two Bubble objects. You will create a CombineBubbles function that receives two references (two Bubble objects) and returns a Bubble object. Combining bubbles simply means creating a new Bubble object whose radius is the sum of the two Bubble objects' radii. Take note that the CombineBubbles function…arrow_forward
- JAVA PROGRAMMING: Lesson – Overloading Constructors Create a class named House that includes data fields for the number of occupants and the annual income as well as methods named setOccupants(), setIncome(), getOccupants() and getIncome() that set and return those values respectively. Additionally, create a constructor that requires no arguments and automatically sets the occupants field to 1 and income field to 0. Create an additional overloaded constructor . This constructor receives an integer argument and assigns the value to the occupants field. Create a third overloaded constructor this time, the constructor receives 2 arguments, the values of which are assigned to the occupants and income fields respectively.
