Create a toString() method that concaternates and returns the subscriber’s street address and rate for display. Create 3 child classes named SevenDaySubscriber, Weekday Subscriber, and Weekend Subscriber. Each child class has an additional attribute called subType, which is a String, that will store the type of newspaper subscription.
