Why is it important for a class to have a destructor implemented? With your comment, fill in the spaces.
Modify the student class presented in this chapter as follows. Each student object should also contain the scores for three tests. Provide a constructor that sets all instance values based on parameter values. Overload the constructor such that each test score is assumed to be initially zero. Provide a method called setTestScore that accepts two parameters: the test number (1 through 3) and the score. Also provide a method called getTestScore that accepts the test number and returns the appropriate score Provide a method called average that computes and returns the average test score for this student. Modify the toString method such that the test scores and average are included in the description of the student. Modify the driver class main method to exercise the new Student methods. (Java)

A constructor that takes an integer between 4 and 20, inclusive and sets the number of sides of the die. A method, rollDie(), returns the face value when the die is rolled. Use a Random number to “roll” the die. Write a main method that will create two die with the same number of sides, continually roll the dice, and report the result of each roll. It should stop when “snake eyes” are rolled (double 1’s) and report the number of rolls. You may write this as a console application or a Windows Forms application; include a screenshot of your program running with successful output.arrow_forward

Both classes have these attributes: author: Stringtiltle: Stringisbn : String- The BookstoreBook has an additional data member to store the price of the book, and whether the book is on sale or not. If a bookstore book is on sale, we need to add the reduction percentage (like 20% off...etc). For a LibraryBook, we add the call number (that tells you where the book is in the library) as a string. The call number is automatically generated by the following procedure:The call number is a string with the format xx.yyy.c, where xx is the floor number that is randomly assigned (our library has 99 floors), yyy are the first three letters of the author’s name (we assume that all names are at least three letters long), and c is the last character of the isbn.- In each of the classes, add the setters, the getters, at least three constructors (of your choosing) and override the toString method (see samplerun…arrow_forward
- Implement a Person class with the following attributes: Name: String Place of Birth: String Birthdate: Date Gender: String The constructor will receive the name and birthday date. The gender and the place of birth should be initialized as empty strings. Make the attributes private and create getter and setter methods. Write a __str__ method that prints the name and the age of the person (check the testcase for the format). To calculate the age just subtract the year of birth to the current year (don't worry about the day/month, it is not an objective of this exercise). A datetime object has a year attribute that is public. To get the current date, use: datetime.date.today() which also has a year attribute.arrow_forwardModified Circle class and test file: Add a new attribute for color (or any other new attribute) Add get/set methods for this new instance variable, including data validation in set method (assuming background is black, i.e. circle color can't be black, reset to any non-black color if black is entered ). Add a new constructor to pass the color attribute as an argument. Add an instance method to display all properties of a Circle object. Create 2 objects using different constructors in test file, with invalid data. Use this test java file test java file: class CircleTest{ public static void main(String[] args){ int num = 10; Circle c1 = new Circle(0.001); Circle c2 = new Circle("black", -9); c1.display(); c2.display(); c1.setRadius( -1); c1.setColor("black"); c1.display(); }}arrow_forwardAdd a toString method to your Account class. For the purposes of this assignment, please use the toString display the following: This account contains $x. You have earned $y in the last month. where x is the account balance (please don't format the decimals) and y is the monthly interest earned, obtained from the getMonthlyInterest method. Compile and test in a driver by creating and printing an Account object. Add an equals method to your Account class. Two Account objects are equal if their balance and annualInterestRates are equal. Compile and test in your driver by creating 2 Account objects to see if they are equal.arrow_forward
