A(n) _________ is a member function that is automatically called when an object is destroyed.
"The size of an object is equal to the sum of the sizes of the class's data members and member functions."
Justify the statement's accuracy.
Create an employee class, basing it on previous lab. The member data should comprise an int for storing the employee number, a string for storing the name and a float for storing the employee’s salary. Member functions should allow the user to enter this data and display it. Write a main () that allows the user to enter data for three employees and display it do it by using scope resolution operator and pointer object.

- C++ True/False: a member function in a class can access all of its class's member variables, but not if the variables are private.arrow_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_forwardTwo data members: feet(int) and inches(float) Two overloaded constructors: one that takes no argument and the other that takes two arguments. Zero argument constructor initializes data members from 0 whereas two argument constructor initializes data members from the passed arguments. Two getters and two setters corresponding to two data members. A member function named toDecimal that converts a distance to decimal, e.g., if a distance equals 2 feet and 6 inches then it would become 2.5 in decimal. A member function named toString that returns a string representation of a distance, e.g., if a distance equals 2 feet and 6 inches then the corresponding string representation should be 2’-6”. by using C++arrow_forward

Add appropriateconstructors, accessor functions, and mutator functions. Also define a functionnamed getLifespan that returns a string with the value “unknown lifespan.” Next, define a Dog class that is derived from Pet. The Dog class should have aprivate member variable named breed that stores the breed of the dog. Add mutator and accessor functions for the breed variable and appropriate constructors.Redefine the getLifespan function to return “Approximately 7 years” if the dog’sweight is over 100 pounds and “Approximately 13 years” if the dog’s weight isunder 100 pounds.

- Pets Breed Class Create a Breed class with the following: Member Variables Create the following private member variables, all of type std::string: species_ breed_name_ color_ Constructors Create a default constructor for Breed that sets its species_ to "Dog", breed_name_ to "Pug", and color_ to "Fawn". Create a non-default constructor that receives a std::string for species_, breed_name_, and color_; in that order. The values from the constructor should appropriately assign the member variables. Accessors and Mutators Create accessors and mutators for all member variables, following the naming conventions covered in class. e.g. for species_, name the accessor Species, and the mutator SetSpecies.
