Chapter 7, Problem 6PC
Gratuity Calculator
Design a Tips class that calculates the gratuity on a restaurant meal. Its only class member variable, taxRate, should be set by a one-parameter constructor to whatever rate is passed to it when a Tips object is created. If no argument is passed, a default tax rate of .065 should be used. The class should have just one public function, computeTip. This function needs to accept two arguments, the total bill amount and the tip rate. It should use this information to compute what the cost of the meal was before the tax was added. It should then apply the tip rate to just the meal cost portion of the bill to compute and return the tip amount. Demonstrate the class by creating a

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…
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.
(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.

An Invoice should include four data members—a part number (type string), a part description (type string), a quantity of the item being purchased (typeint) and a price per item (type int). 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.

- 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. Create another class named I_house that instantiates the House class and see if the constructors work correctly.arrow_forwardAccount Class) Create an Account class that a bank might use to represent customers’ bank accounts. Include a data member of type intto represent the account balance. Provide a constructor that receives an initial balance and uses it to initialize the data member. Theconstructor should validate the initial balance to ensure that it’s greater than or equal to 0. If not, set the balance to 0 and display anerror message indicating that the initial balance was invalid. Provide three member functions. Member function credit should add anamount to the current balance. Member function debit should withdraw money from the Account and ensure that the debit amountdoes not exceed the Account’s balance. If it does, the balance should be left unchanged and the function should print a messageindicating "Debit amount exceeded account balance."

- Complete the Appointment class. The class should have the following instance variables, constructors) and instance methods: 1. A properlv encapsulated String instance variable named personName 2. A properly encapsulated String instance variable named day. 3. A properly encapsulated double instance variable named duration 4. A default(no-arg) constructor that sets the per sonName instance variable to "Your Boss", day instance variable to "Monday" and duration instance variable to 1.5. 1. An overloaded constructor that takes two String parameters and one double parameter and sets the instance variables to the values passed in. 2. A getter and setter method for each instance variable. .A method named printAppointment, the method returns a String which contains the concatenation of the instance variables as shown in the sample outputarrow_forwardDouble Bubble For this exercise you need to create a Bubble class and construct two instances of the Bubble object. 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_forwardNutritional information (classes/constructors) PYTHON ONLY Complete the FoodItem class by adding a constructor to initialize a food item.

If the constructor is called with a food name, grams of fat, grams of carbohydrates, and grams of protein, the constructor should assign each instance attribute with the appropriate parameter value. The given program accepts as input a food item name, fat, carbs, and protein and the number of servings. The program creates a food item using the constructor parameters' default values and a food item using the input values. The program outputs the nutritional information and calories per serving for both food items. Ex: If the input is: M&M's10.034.02.01.0 where M&M's is the food name, 10.0 is the grams of fat, 34.0 is the grams of carbohydrates, 2.0 is the grams of protein, and 1.0 is the number of servings, the output is:…arrow_forward
