Chapter 5, Problem 8PP
Leap years. Write a method
public static boolean isLeapYear(int year)
that tests whether a year is a leap year: that is, a year with 366 days. Exercise P3.14 describes how to test whether a year is a leap year. In this exercise, use multiple if statements and return statements to return the result as soon as you know it.

The following technique is used in a game of chess: canMoveTo(int x, int y), boolean. A method in the Piece class returns if the piece may travel to position (x, y). Describe how you would put this method to the test.
JAVA PROGRAM
SEE ATTACHED PHOTO FOR THE PROBLEM
Create a class with a method. The method has to decide whether a given year is a leap year or not.
Note- A year is a leap year if:
• It has an extra day i.e. 366 instead of 365.
It occurs in every 4 year e.g. 2008, 2012 are leap years.
For every 100 years a special rule applies-1900 is not a leap year but 2000 is a leap
year. In those cases, we need to check whether it is divisible by 400 or not.

Each animal is bringing one dish. There is just one rule: the dish must start and end with the same letters as the animal's name. For example, the great blue heron is bringing garlic naan and the chickadee is bringing chocolate cake. Write a method that takes the animal's name and dish as arguments and returns true or false to indicate whether the beast is allowed to bring the dish to the feast. Assume that beast and dish are always lowercase strings, and that each has at least two letters. Beast and dish may contain hyphens and spaces, but these will not appear at the beginning or end of the string. They will not contain numerals.arrow_forwardUse Java program to add a method printReceipt to the CashRegister class. The method should ask the user to input the 5 items that they have bought recently and also the prices for each item. Next, print the items, their prices, and the total amount due. Hint: You will need to form a string of all prices. Use the concat method of the String class to add additional items to that string. To turn a price into a string, use the call String.valueOf(price). Also, the payment information will need to be the same as the price information. Here is the CashRegister class: /** A cash register totals up sales and computes change due.*/public class CashRegister{ private double purchase; private double payment; /** Constructs a cash register with no money in it. */ public CashRegister() { purchase = 0; payment = 0; } /** Records the sale of an item. @param amount the price of the item */ public void recordPurchase(double amount) { purchase =…arrow_forward
- Prime number is the number that is divided by one and itself only, Twin Prime is a pair of prime numbers that differ by 2. For example, 3 and 5 are twin primes, 5 and 7 are twin primes, and 11 and 13 are twin primes. Write a java program to find all twin primes within a range of 1 up to a number entered by user, such that, that the entered number should be greater than 10. The program has to have a method that takes an integer as a formal parameter and returns if that number is prime or not. Display the output as follows: Enter an integer (greater than 10): 7 Not accepted number! Enter an integer (greater than 10): 50 The number of twin prime numbers up to 50 are: (3, 5) (5, 7) (11, 13) (17, 19) (29, 31) (41, 43)arrow_forward1.
