Concept explainers
Create a base class called Vehicle that has the manufacturer's name (type string), number of cylinders in the engine (type int), and owner (type Person given in Listing 8.1). Then create a class called Truck that is derived from Vehicle and has additional properties: the load capacity in tons (type double, since it may contain a fractional part) and towing capacity in tons (type double). Give your classes a reasonable complement of constructors and accessor methods, and an equals method as well. Write a driver program (no pun intended) that tests all your methods.

- Write a class encapsulating the concept of the weather forecast, assuming that it has the following attributes: the temperature and the sky conditions (e.g. sunny, snowy, cloudy, rainy, etc.).  Include a default constructor, an overloaded constructor, accessors and mutators, and the methods, toString() and equals(). Temperature, in Fahrenheit, should be between -50 and +150; the default value is 70, if needed. The default sky condition is sunny. In Addition, include a method that converts Fahrenheit to Celsius. Celsius temperature = (Fahrenheit temperature – 32) * 5/9. Also include a boolean method that checks whether the weather attributes are consistent (there are two cases where they are not consistent: when the temperature is below 32 and it is not snowy, and when the temperature is above 100 and it is not sunny). Write a client class to test all the methods in your class.arrow_forwardConsider a class Movie that contains the following information about a movie. The class has the following attributes:  Title MPAA Rating (e.g. G, PG, PG-13, R) Number of people who rated this movie as a 1 (Terrible) Number of people who rated this movie as a 2 (Bad) Number of people who rated this movie as a 3 (OK) Number of people who rated this movie as a 4 (Good) Number of people who rated this movie as a 5 (Great)   Implement the Movie class such that it is able to contain the above information. Include constructor that would accept two parameters and initialize the movie's title to the value of its first parameter and the movie's MPAA rating to the value of its second parameter, and public rating to 0. Also include access member functions for title and MPAA rating. Include a member function to increment the public rating that will only accept integer values between 1 and 5. Finally, write a member function that would return the average public rating of a movie.  Write a…arrow_forwardWrite a Java program: In the board game Scrabble, each tile contains a letter, which is used to spell words in rows and columns, and a score, which is used to determine the value of words. The point of this exercise is to practice the mechanical part of creating a new class definition: Write a definition for a class named Tile that represents Scrabble tiles. The instance variables should be a character named "letter" and an integer named "value". Write a constructor that takes parameters named letter and value, and initializes the instance variables. Create getters for both of the attributes. (No setters, so that a Tile is immutable.) Implement the .toString() and .equals methods for a Tile.arrow_forward
- In this challenge, we'll implement an Account class along with two derived classes, Savings and Current. Problem Statement# Write a code that has: ● A parent class named Account. ○ Inside it define: ■a protected double member balance ■public void Withdraw(double amount) ■public void Deposit(double amount) ■public void printBalance() ● Then, there are two derived classes ○ Savings class ■has a private member interestRate set to 0.8 ■Withdraw(double amount) deducts amount from balance with interestRate ■Deposit(double amount) adds amount in balance with interestRate ■printBalance() displays the balance in the account ○ Current class ■Withdraw(double amount) deducts amount from balance ■Deposit(double amount) adds amount in balance ■printBalance() displays the balance in the account Input# ● In the Savings class, balance is set to 50000 in the parametrized constructor ● In the Current class, balance is set to 50000 in the parametrized constructor Output# Balance before…arrow_forwardCan you implement the Derived Class Parameterized constructor? A solution is placed in the "solution" section to help you, but we would suggest you try to solve it on your own first. Implement the constructor Dell(String name) of the Derived Class Dell which takes a string, name. We have already implemented the Base Class Laptop with the member function getName() and a parameterized constructor. Input# Laptop name is being passed through the parameterized constructor. Output# getName() method is returing Laptop name. Sample Input# Dell dell = new Dell("Dell Inspiron"); Sample Output# "Dell Inspiron"arrow_forwardFirst, you need to design, code in Java, test and document a base class, Student. The Student class will have the following information, and all of these should be defined as Private: A first name (given name) A last name (family name/surname) Student number (ID) – an integer number (of type long) The Student class will have at least the following constructors and methods: (i)  two constructors - one without any parameters (the default constructor), and one with parameters to give initial values to all the instance variables of Student. (ii)  only necessary set and get methods for a valid class design. (iii)  a reportGrade method, which you have nothing to report here, you can just print to the screen a message “There is no grade here.”. This method will be overridden in the respective child classes. (iv)  an equals method which compares two student objects and returns true if they have the same student number (ID), otherwise it returns false. You may add other…arrow_forward
- write the following 3 classes for the Java program so that this program produces the sample output shown at the end of Main.  ElectricCar: a vehicle with a limited range. So it must be a subclass of Vehicle, and it must implement LimitedRange. Thus it needs an instance variable for its range, and a travel method (required by Vehicle. Please use @Override) that outputs "Zoom!" if it has enough range to go the distance specified (and update its range). It must have a constructor with 3 arguments as called by main. It also needs a getCurrentRange method as required by LimitedRange (use @Override for this too). Motorboat: a vehicle with a limited range. So it is similar to ElectricCar, but it outputs "Wisshhh!" when it goes. Sailboat: a vehicle that doesn't have a limited range. So it is a subclass of Vehicle, but doesn't implement LimitedRange. It can go any distance, and outputs "Weee!" when it travels.  Code: class Main { publicstaticvoid main(String[] args) { Vehicle[]…arrow_forwardWrite a complete program for the description given below. Consider a Billing class that implements an interface Payable having a method getTotalPayment Amount(). Besides this, you have a Doctor class with private instance variables (docID, docName, and docFee) and a public getDoc() method, Patient class with private instance variables (pName, pID. pDisease), Medicine class with private instance variables (medID, medName, medQty, medPrice), and Medical Test class with private instance variables (testID, testName, testPrice). Each of these classes has the toString() method to display the information of its object. The Billing class is having "Has A" relationship with the other four classes (Doctor, Patient, Medicine, and MedicalTest) mentioned above. The getPayment Amount() method of Billing class returns the total billing amount that includes doc fee, medicine cost, and medical test fee that a patient has to pay. After implementing these classes, you are required to do the following in…arrow_forwardWrite the source code of the class Passenger. A passenger can travel with an infant (i.e. his/her child). Code the class Infant as an inner class of the class Passenger. If a passenger is not travelling with an infant, the getInfantMonths method must return –1.arrow_forward
- All vehicles used for transportation in the U.S. must have identification, which varies according to the type of vehicle. For example, all automobiles have a unique Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) assigned by the manufacturer, plus a license plate number assigend by the state in which the auto is registerd. Your task is to modify the Auto class below to override the equals method of the Vehicle class to test that the VIN and license plate number are identical.arrow_forwardImplement a class Season that represents a season during a specified year. For purposes of thisproblem, assume that the seasons in each year are, in order, 'Winter', 'Spring', 'Summer', 'Autumn' .__init__, __repr__A Season object is created by calling the constructor and supplying two optional arguments:1. season, defaults to 'Winter'2. calendar year, an int , defaults to 2023For the __repr__ , see the usage below: The next and prev methods modify a Season object by changing it to the next season or previousseason in sequence, respectively. Note that the seasons can "roll over" or "roll back" and that this maychange the year by +/-1.    1. During each year, the seasons occur in this sequence: 'Winter', 'Spring', 'Summer',      'Autumn'   2. next - change to next season, if the current season is Autumn then year will increase by 1   3. prev - change to previous season, if Winter then year will decrease by 1 Implement the == operator ( __eq__  method) to compare two Season…arrow_forwardWrite a java program that has:A class University that has:- Three private instance variables named firstName, lastName, and id- A constructor to initialize the three instance variables- A toString method to return: “Welcome,” + firstName +” “ + lastName + “Your ID is ” + id- AccessorsA subclass Employee that has:- Five additional private instance variables named department, rate, bonus, hours, and salary- An appropriate constructor to use constructor of superclass in defining those of the subclass- A method named compteSalary ( ) to return salary- A method named computeBonus ( ) to return bonus- Accessors A subclass Staff that:- Overrides computeBonus ( ) such that if hours are greater than 40, there will be %10 bonus for each additional houradded to salary- Overrides compteSalary ( ) such that salary = (rate * hours) + bonus- Overrides toString method to add department and salary into the outputA subclass Faculty that:- Overrides computeBonus ( ) such that if hours are greater than…arrow_forward
