Explanation of Solution

Interface:

Interface is a reference type in Java, which contains a collection of abstract methods. It is very similar to class, but it cannot be instantiated, rather it is implemented by other classes.

An interface needs to the follow certain conditions such as:

  • One cannot instantiate an interface.
  • Interfaces do not contain any constructors...

Create an interface named Playable that defines a method play requiring no return value. Play just displays the string “Play me.” Create a class named Instrument that implements playable that contains a private member name but does not implement the play of Playable. a. define setter and getter for name b. define a constructor that accepts a String name argument to be assigned to the name attribute of the class c. override equals of the object for this class d. override toString of an object for this class 3. Implement a concrete subclass of an instrument named Guitar. a. Create a constructor similar to the default constructor provided by the system. See to it that the superclass object is created. b. See to it that the abstract method is also implemented c. override equals of the object for this class d. override toString of the object for this class
Create a class called Employee that contains two attributes: name and number. Next, write a class named Production Worker that is a subclass of the Employee class. The Production Worker class should add extra attributes called shift_number (an integer, either 1 or 2) and pay_rate. Write the appropriate accessor and mutator methods for each class. Once you have written the classes, write a program that creates an object of the Employee class and an object of the Production Worker class and prompts the user to enter data for each of the object's data attributes. Store the data in the object, then use the object's accessor methods to retrieve it and display it on the screen.
Design a class named Person with properties for holding a person’s name, address, and telephone number. Next, design a class named Customer, which is derived from the Person class. The Customer class should have a property for a customer number and a Boolean property indicating whether the customer wishes to be on a mailing list. Demonstrate an object of the Customer class in a simple application.
