Chapter 10.3, Problem 13CP
Program Plan Intro

Instance attribute:

  • • An instance has its own set of data attributes of a class.
  • • To create an attribute, the method uses the parameter “self”.
  • • The “self” references the attribute that belongs to a specific object of the class.
  • • In the same class, there is a possibility to create many instances. Here, each instance has its own set of attributes.
  • • This is called as instance attribute.
  • • In the given problem, there will be 10 attributes in memory while creating 10 instances of a class.
  • • This is because each instance of a class calls the method for 10 times.

Java OOP Write a complete address book maintenance application. The user of the program has four options: Add a new person, delete a person, modify the data of a person, and search for a person by giving the name. Use the AddressBook class, either the original one from the chapter or the modified one from the previous exercises. You have to decide how to allow the user to enter the values for a new person, display person information, and so forth.
Suppose that an application declares an array of class objects with the following statement: Employee[] employees = new Employee[9]; Write a loop that creates 10 instances of the class and assigns them to the elements of the array.
Background Often, data are stored in a very compact but not human-friendly way. Think of how dishes in a menu can be stored in a restaurant database somewhere in the cloud. One way a dish object can be stored is this: { "name": "Margherita", "calories": 800, "price": 18.90, "is_vegetarian": "yes", "spicy_level": 2 } Obviously, this format is not user-readable, so the restaurant's frontend team produced many lines of code to render and display this content in a way that's more understandable to us, the restaurant users. We have a mini-version of the same task coming up. Given a list of similar complex objects (represented by Python dictionaries), display them in a user-friendly way that we'll define in these instructions. What is a "dish"? In this project, one dish item is a dictionary object that is guaranteed to have the following keys: "name": a string that stores the dish's name. "calories": an integer representing the calorie intake for one serving of the dish. "price": a float to…
