Explanation of Solution

Throw point:

The throw point is a statement which uses the keyword “throw” to throw an exception which occurred while executing the program.

Example:

Consider the following code segment which throws an exception when it receives value “0” for the argument “b”:

//Function "division" is used to divide two integers

double division(int a, int b)

{

//The value of "b" is 0

if (b == 0)

{

//throw point

//throw an exception contains message

throw "ERROR: denominator should not be "0".\n " ;

}

//otherwise, do the division

else

{

//return the result

return static_ cast<double>(a)/b;

}

}

In the above example, the “throw” statement is used to throw a message and the statement is referred as “throw point”.

  • After the execution of “throw” statement, the program control will move to another part in the same program.

Write a FancyCar class to support basic operations such as drive, add gas, honk horn, and start engine. FancyCar.java is provided with method stubs. Follow each step to gradually complete all methods. Note: This program is designed for incremental development. Complete each step and submit for grading before starting the next step. Only a portion of tests pass after each step but confirm progress. The main() method includes basic method calls. Add statements in main() as methods are completed to support development mode testing. Step 0. Declare private fields for miles driven as shown on the odometer (int), gallons of gas in tank (double), miles per gallon or MPG (double), driving capacity (double), and car model (String). Note the provided final variable indicates the gas tank capacity of 14.0 gallons. Step 1 (2 pts). 1) Complete the default constructor by initializing the odometer to five miles, tank is full of gas, miles per gallon is 24.0, and the model is "Old Clunker". 2)…
