Program Plan Intro

2D graphics:

The shape that can be laid flat on a piece of paper or any mathematical plane is known as a 2D shape. Only horizontal and vertical directions are used in 2D that is it contains only length and width. It is used for printing and drawing application.

3D graphics:

3D graphics is a three dimensional representation of the geometrical data. It contains length, breadth and depth.

Explanation of Solution

Determine whether designing the layout of magazines pages is application of 2D or 3D graphics:

  • The magazine page has its length and breadth but the depth of the page is negligible.
  • This means that the dimension of the page is limited to horizontal and vertical axes that are X and Y-axis.
  • So, in case of designing the layout of the magazine page various shapes, sizes and colors can be designed, but as the paper does not contain any depth, it is a 2D graphics application.

Therefore, designing the layout of the magazine page is “application of 2D graphics”.

Explanation of Solution

Determine whether drawing an image using Microsoft paint is application of 2D or 3D graphics:

  • The dimension of Microsoft page is limited to horizontal and vertical axes that are X and Y-axes.
  • So, In case of drawing an image using Microsoft paint, the position of the mouse pointer is located in between two coordinates only and so it is also an application of 2D graphics.

Therefore, drawing an image using Microsoft paint is “application of 2D graphics”.

Explanation of Solution

Determine whether producing image from a virtual world for a video game is application of 2D or 3D graphics:

  • The appearance of the screen of the video game on which images is displayed is 2D, but producing an image from a virtual world for a video game causes a series of images to view with subtle isometric variation to copy or mimic object as these objects are viewed in the real world.
  • So, through interaction, user also experiences the depth of the object.

Therefore, producing image from a virtual world for a video game is “application of 3D graphics”.

Each user can borrow up to 2 bicycles at a time, specifically for families with children 18 years or below. The system must track the bicycles (name, make, type, and availability) and users (name, ID, and borrowed bicycles). The company also wants to ensure that the system uses a multidimensional array to store information about the bicycles. Requirements: Add and View Bicycles: Borrow Bicycles: Return Bicycles Display Borrowed Bicycles and Search for a bicycle Create a menu-driven program to implement the above. Sample Output: Add Bicycle View All Bicycles Borrow Bicycle Return…
Add a method called transfer () to the BankAccount class, that takes in an amount and destinationAccount as input and transfer the funds from current account to destination account. This method should return the balance of the current account after the transfer, also should check for the sufficient balance in current account before proceeding the transfer and if there is insufficient balance return an error message "Insufficient balance". Modify the BankAccount Test class, so that it calls the transfer () method and prints the balance after transfer. Make sure that the transfer() method updates the balance of both the current account and the destination account.
• Create a public method called deposit() that takes in an amount of type double as input and adds the amount to the current balance. This method should also return the updated balance. • Create another public method called withdraw() that takes in an amount of type double as input, checks if the withdrawal amount is less than the current balance, and if so, subtracts the amount from the balance. If the withdrawal amount is greater than the current balance, the method should return an error message "Insufficient balance". • Create a public method getAccountInfo() that returns the account information in the format "Account Number: xxxxx, Account Holder: John Doe, Account Type: SAVINGS/CHECKING, Balance: $xxxX.XX". • Finally, create a constructor method that takes in the account number, account holder name, initial balance and account type as input and initializes the corresponding instance variables. In the BankAccount class, make sure to use the private access modifier for the instance…
