Chapter 10.9, Problem 10.28CP
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...

Assume that Automobile is an interface. We want to write a class Called Car
that implements the interface Automobile.
Which of the following is the correct heading of class Car:

1. Create an interface OnlineQuiz with the following details:
Member variables:
totalMarks=10
Member Methods:
· nQuestions(): An abstract method that calculates and return the number of questions. Defined in subclass.
· display(): An abstract method that displays all details. Defined in a subclass.
2. Create a class Staff that inherits OnlineQuiz with the following details:
Member variables:
· staffD // id of the staff string type
· staffName // Name of the staff string type
· nMCQ // Number of MCQ type questions int type
· nTF // Number of true/false type questions int type
· nMatch // Number of match type questions int type
Member Methods:
· Define the parameterized constructor to set the member variables.
· Define the method nQuestions(): which calculate and return the total number of questions.
Total number of question= nMCQ + nTF +…

Your program should be able to handle a maximum of 500 entries. Define a class addressType that can store a street address, city, state, and ZIP code. Use the appropriate functions to print and store the address. Also, use constructors to automatically initialize the member variables. Define a class extPersonType using the class personType (as defined in Example 10-10, Chapter 10), the class dateType (as designed in this chapters Programming Exercise 2), and the class addressType. Add a member variable to this class to classify the person as a family member, friend, or business associate. Also, add a member variable to store the phone number. Add (or override) the functions to print and store the appropriate information. Use constructors to automatically initialize the member variables. Define the class addressBookType using the previously defined classes. An object of the type addressBookType should be able to process a maximum of 500 entries. The program should perform the following operations: Load the data into the address book from a disk. Sort the address book by last name. Search for a person by last name. Print the address, phone number, and date of birth (if it exists) of a given person. Print the names of the people whose birthdays are in a given month. Print the names of all the people between two last names. Depending on the users request, print the names of all family members, friends, or business associates.arrow_forward
