Chapter 8.1, Problem 6STQ
Program Plan Intro
Explanation for Figure 8.3:
- • The “Person” and “Student” are the two classes. The “Person” is inherited from the “Student” class. The arrow represents from the “Student” class to the “Person” class diagram.
- • The “Person” class contains “name” is a variable, and “setName”, “getName”, “writeOutput”, and “hasSameName” are the methods.
- • The “Student” contains “studentNumber” is a variable, and “reset”, “getStudentNumber”, “setStudentNumber”, “writeOutput”, and “equals” are the methods.

Draw an inheritance hierarchy for the people in your place of study or work. For example, if you are a university student, then your university probably has students (first-year students, second-year students, . . . ), professors, tutors, office personnel, etc.
Create an inheritance hierarchy of Rodent: mouse, gerbil, hamster, guinea pig.
In the base class, provide methods that are common to all rodents based on behaviours you find with a quick Internet search. Be sure to document the behaviours you implement (e.g., eat, sleep, groom, move, etc.). Each behaviour should print its action to standard output (e.g., rodent eating).
Next, refine these behaviours in the child classes to perform different behaviours, depending on the specific type of rodent, but only if the behaviour is actually different (e.g., mouse eating seeds or guinea pig eating grass)
Test your Rodent classes by writing a main() class and creating instances of every rodent, and demonstrate all the behaviours for each rodent.

- (a) Create an inheritance hierarchy of Rodent: Mouse, Gerbil, Hamster, etc. In the base class, providemethods that are common to all Rodents, and override these in the derived classes to perform differentbehaviors depending on the specific type of Rodent. Create an array of Rodent, fill it with different specific types of Rodents, and call your base-class methods to see what happens.

Using the above Cycle hierarchy, add a balance( ) methodto Unicycle and Bicycle, but not to Tricycle. Create instances of all three types and upcast them to an arrayof Cycle.
