FeetInches Class Copy Constructor and multiply Function
Add a copy constructor to the FeetInches class. This constructor should accept a FeetInches object as an argument. The constructor should assign to the feet attribute the value in the argument’s feet attribute, and assign to the inches attribute the value in the argument’s inches attribute. As a result, the new object will be a copy of the argument object.
Next, add a multiply member function to the FeetInches class. The multiply function should accept a FeetInches object as an argument. The argument objects feet and inches attributes will be multiplied by the calling object’s feet and inches attributes, and a FeetInches object containing the result will be returned.

- Double Bubble For this exercise you need to create a Bubble class and construct two instances of the Bubble object. You will then take the two Bubble objects and combine them to create a new, larger combined Bubble object. This will be done using functions that take in these Bubble objects as parameters. The Bubble class contains one data member, radius_, and the corresponding accessor and mutator methods for radius_, GetRadius and SetRadius. Create a member function called CalculateVolume that computes for the volume of a bubble (sphere). Use the value 3.1415 for PI. Your main function has some skeleton code that asks the user for the radius of two bubbles. You will use this to create the two Bubble objects. You will create a CombineBubbles function that receives two references (two Bubble objects) and returns a Bubble object. Combining bubbles simply means creating a new Bubble object whose radius is the sum of the two Bubble objects' radii. Take note that the CombineBubbles function…arrow_forwardA data member or member function that has a OC A. pointer B. public C. private D. protected access specifier can be accessed within the class it has been defined in and any of its derived classes.arrow_forwardA class student has rollno. ,Name, class internal exam sub1mark, sub2marks, class external has sub1marks and sub2marks and class result has total as data members write necessary member function to input and print data .
