Library Information System Design and Testing
Library Item Class Design and TestingDesign a class that holds the Library Item Information, with item name, author, publisher. Write appropriate accessor and mutator methods. Also, write a tester program(Console and GUI Program) that creates three instances/objects of the Library Items class.
Extending Library Item Class Library and Book Classes: Extend the Library Item class in (1) with a Book class with data attributes for a book’s title, author, publisher and an additional attributes as number of pages, and a Boolean data attribute indicating whether there is both hard copy as well as eBook version of the book. Demonstrate Book Class in a Tester Program (Console and GUI Program) with an object of Book class.
It is possible for a class to have more than one constructor.A) This is correct.
B) The answer is False.
True or FalseIt is a common practice to make all a class’s fields private and to provide access to those fields through methods.

- In JavaScript, a constructor needs to link an object to other functions so that methods are performed only on the object that calls them. (a) True (b)Falsearrow_forwardJava Assignment Outcomes: Student will demonstrate the ability to utilize inheritance in a Java program. Student will demonstrate the ability to apply the IS A and HAS A relationships. Program Specifications: Start by watching Video Segment 16 from Dr. Colin Archibald's video series (found in the module overview). Key in the program shown in the video and make sure it works. Then, add the following: Animals have a Weight. Animals have a Height. Dog is an Animal. Dogs have a Name. Dogs have a Breed. Dogs have a DOB. Cat is an Animal Cats have a Name. Cats have 9 lives, so you need to keep track of the remaining lives once a cat dies. Bird is an Animal Birds have a wing span Birds have a canFly which is true or false (some birds cannot fly) Create a test class that creates one of each type of animal and displays the animal’s toString method.

Car Class Write a class named car that has the following fields: ▪ yearModel. The year Model field is an int that holds the car's year model. ▪ make. The make field is a String object that holds the make of the car, such as "Ford", "Chevrolet", "Honda", etc. ▪ speed. The speed field is an int that holds the car's current speed. In addition, the class should have the following methods. ■ Constructor. The constructor should accept the car's year model and make as arguments. These values should be assigned to the object's year Model and make fields. The constructor should also assign 0 to the speed field.arrow_forward
- Lab 2 – Designing a class This lab requires you to think about the steps that take place in a program by writing pseudocode. Read the following program prior to completing the lab. Design a class named Computer that holds the make, model, and amount of memory of a computer. Include methods to set the values for each data field, and include a method that displays all the values for each field. For the programming problem, create the pseudocode that defines the class and enter it below.

- Using Visual Studio C# Language Note: not a User Inputarrow_forwardObject Oriented Programming in JAVA You are part of a team writing classes for the different game objects in a video game. You need to write classes for the two human objects warrior and politician. A warrior has the attributes name (of type String) and speed (of type int). Speed is a measure of how fast the warrior can run and fight. A politician has the attributes name (of type String) and diplomacy (of type int). Diplomacy is the ability to outwit an adversary without using force. From this description identify a superclass as well as two subclasses. Each of these three classes need to have a default constructor, a constructor with parameters for all the instance variables in that class (as well as any instance variables inherited from a superclass) accessor (get) and mutator (set) methods for all instance variables and a toString method. The toString method needs to return a string representation of the object. Also write a main method for each class in which that class is…arrow_forwardDesign a LandTract class that has two fields (i.e. instance variables): one for the tract’s length(a double), and one for the width (a double). The class should have: a constructor that accepts arguments for the two fields a method that returns the tract’s area(i.e. length * width) an equals method that accepts a LandTract object as an argument. If the argument object holds the same data (i.e. length and width) as the calling object, this method should return true. Otherwise, it should return false. a toString method (that returns a String representation of the tract’s length, width, and area). Demonstrate the class in a program by creating an array of three LandTract objects initialized with user input. Then, print the info of the LandTract objects stored in the array by invoking the toString method (implicitly or explicity). Also, use the equals method to compare at least two LandTract objects and print wether they are of equal size or not. Sample Output:…arrow_forward
