Chapter 10, Problem 7SA

Explanation of Solution

The “__str__” method:

  • • It is used to display an object’s state.
  • • The object’s state is the value of the object’s attribute.
  • • This method returns a string containing the object’s state.
  • • When an object is passed as an argument to the print function, this “__str__” method is automatically called.
  • • It is also called when an object is passed as an argument to the built-in “str” function.

Example:

#define the class Example_class

class Example_class:

  #init method for the class

         def __init__(self, id):

              #assign for id

              self...

Method: sumOdds(value: int): This method will sum all the odd values from 1 upto the value passed by parameter. This will display the sumas an integer value.Method: characterCount(phrase: str): This method will count the number of characters in the phrase that is passed by parameter. You cannot useany built in function ( ie len() ) and must use a looping activity. This should display the number of characters inthe phrase as an integerMethod: multiplicationPractice(): This method is to practice simple multiplication problems. The program should randomly generate twonumbers from 1-10 for the user to multiply. It should display the multiplication problem and allow the user toanswer the problem. It should display if the user got the answer correct or incorrect. The activity shouldcontinue until the user has gotten 3 different practice problems correct.Method: order(value1: int, value2: int, value3: int): This method is to order the 3 passed value from least to greatest. It should display…
Microsoft Visual C# 7th edition.  In Chapter 7, you modified the GreenvilleRevenue program to include a number of methods. Now, using your code from Chapter 7 Case Study 1, modify your program so every data entry statement uses a TryParse() method to ensure that each piece of data is the correct type. Any invalid user entries should generate an appropriate message that contains the word Invalid, and the user should be required to reenter the data.  I am working in CENGAGE MINDTAP. Here is my code, but the TryParse is not working. I am not getting the point for TryParse. thanks using System;  using static System.Console; using System.Globalization; class GreenvilleRevenue {    static void Main()  {   int numLastYear;      int numThisYear;      double revenue;      int fee = 25;      const int MAX_CONTESTANTS = 30;      string[] names = new string[MAX_CONTESTANTS];      char[] talents = new char[MAX_CONTESTANTS];      char[] talentCodes = { 'S', 'D', 'M', 'O' };      string[]…
