#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

 

class Rectangle { // define class

 

public:

       Rectangle() { length = 0; width = 0; }   // constructor

 

       float getlength() { return length; } // return length

       float getWidth() { return width; }   // return width

 

       float area() { return length* width; } // return area

       float perimeter() { return 2 * length + 2 * width; }

 

       void setValues(float, float);

void Rectangle::setValues(float len, float wid)

       if (len <= 0 || len >= 20) {

(5)       Suppose that these two statements were sequentially appearing within your Rectangle program’s main() method. Is the statement
            r.length = 50; a valid statement? Explain your answer.

              Rectangle r;                   

  r.length = 50;   

also, In reference to the program statements of the completed starter code file, what is the classification of the setValues() member function? Is it an accessor function or a mutator function?
