Temperature Class
Write a Temperature class that will hold a temperature in Fahrenheit, and provide methods to get the temperature in Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin. The class should have the following field:
- fahrenheit – A double that holds a Fahrenheit temperature.
The class should have the following methods:
- Constructor – The constructor accepts a Fahrenheit temperature (as a double) and stores it in the ftemp field.
- setFahrenheit – The setFahrenheit method accepts a Fahrenheit temperature (as a double) and stores it in the ftemp field.
- getFahrenheit – Returns the value of the ftemp field, as a Fahrenheit temperature (no conversion required).
- celsius – Returns the value of the ftemp field converted to Celsius.
- kelvin – Returns the value of the ftemp field converted to Kelvin.
Use the following formula to convert the Fahrenheit temperature to Celsius:

Design a Book class that holds the title, author’s name, and price of the book. Books’s constructor
should initialize all of these data members except the price which is set to 500/-. Create a display
method that displays all fields.
All Books are priced at 500/- unless they are PopularBooks. The PopularBooks subclass replaces the Bookprice and sets each Book’s price to 50,000/- through PopularBooks construcor. Override the display method to display all fields.
Write a Main () method that declares an array of five Book objects. Ask the user to enter the title and author for each of the 5 Books. Consider the Book to be a PopularBook if the author is one of the following: Khaled Hosseini, Oscar Wilde, or Rembrandt. Display the five Books’ details.

A Door Class
A computer game usually has many different objects that can be seen and manipulated.
One typical object is a door. Whether a player runs through a castle, attacks the forces of an evil
empire, or places furniture in a room, a door often comes into play.
Implement a Door class as described below as well as a TestDoor class that instantiates
three Door objects labeled “Enter,” “Exit,” and “Treasure.” The “Enter” door should be left
unlocked and opened. The “Exit” door should be left closed and locked. The “Treasure” door
should be left open but locked.
A Door class
A Door object can
• display an inscription,
• be either open or closed, and
• be either locked or unlocked.
Here are some rules about how Door’s work.
• Once the writing on a Door is set, it cannot be changed.
• You may open a Door if and only if it is unlocked and closed.
• You may close a Door if and only if it is open.
• You may lock a Door if and only if it is unlocked, and unlock a Door if…
Create a Class Pet with the following data members
Identification: String
species : String (e.g. cat, dog, fish etc)
breed: String
Age (in days): int
Weight: float
Dead: boolean
1. Provide a constructor with parameters for all instance variables.
2. Provide getters for all and setters for only breed, and weight
3. Provide a method growOld() that increases the age of the pet by one day. A dead pet wont grow old
4. Provide a method growHealthy(float w) that increases the weight of the pet by the given amount w. A dead pet cannot grow healthy.
5. Provide a method fallSick(float w) that reduces the weight of the pet by the given amount. The least weight a pet can have is 0 which will mean that the pet has died. If the value of weigh is 10 kg and the method is called with an argument of 11 kg then you will set it to 0 and set the dead to an appropriate value to mark the death of the pet
6. Provide a toString method that shows an appropriate well formatted string…
