Program Plan Intro
Modified “Dog” class
Program Plan:
Modified “Dog.java”:
- • Define “Dog” class.
- ○ Declare instance variables for “Dog” class.
- ○ Create accessor and mutator methods to set dog’s name, breed and age.
- ○ Define “equals” method.
- ■ This method returns “true”, if name, breed and age of one dog is equal to other dog. Otherwise returns “false”.
- ○ Define “writeOutput” method for displays all details of dog.
- ○ Define “getAgeInHumanYears” method as “Listing 5.1” of chapter 5.
“Main.java”:
- • Define “Main” class.
- ○ Define main function.
- ■ Create objects “dog1”, “dog2”, “dog3” and “dog4” from “Dog” class.
- ■ Set name for each object by calling the method “setDogName()”.
- ■ Set breed for each object by calling the method “setDogBreed()”.
- ■ Set age for each object by calling the method “setDogAge()”.
- ■ Call "writeOutput" method for object “dog1” and “dog2”.
- ■ Check the object of “dog1” and “dog2” are equal or not by calling method “equals”.
- ■ Check the object of “dog3” and “dog1” are equal or not by calling method “equals”.
- ■ Check the object of “dog4” and “dog1” are equal or not by calling method “equals”.
- ○ Define main function.

The owner of a venue for events needs software to keep track of reservations. The venue can handle
two events in a day, one scheduled for the afternoon and another scheduled for the evening. Each
event consists of the type (wedding, bar mitzvah, etc.), the date of the event, and whether or not the
event will be held in the evening. A programmer writes the code given on the handout.
import java.util.LinkedList;
class Event {
// wedding, etc.
String type;
Date date;
boolean isEvening;
// true if the event is to be held in the evening
public Event(string type, Date date, boolean isEvening) {
this.type - type;
this.date = date;
this.isEvening = isEvening;
}
class Date {
string month;
int day;
int year;
public Date(string month, int day, int year) {
this.month = month;
this.day = day;
this.year = year;
class Reservations {
LinkedList events;
public Reservations() {
this.events = new LinkedList();
// adds the given event to the events list, as long as there is no
// date/time conflict with…
Challenge exercise The following object creation will result in the constructor of the Date class being called. Can you write the constructor’s header? new Date("March", 23, 1861) Try to give meaningful names to the parameters

elow for each class you find a UML and description of the public interface. Implementing the public interface as described is madatory. There's freedom on how to implement these classes.The private properties and private methods are under your control.. There are multiple ways of implementing all these classes. Feel free to add private properties and methods.
For each object, it's mandatory to create a header file (.h), implementation file (.cpp) and a driver. Blank files are included. The header should have the class definition in it. The implementation file should contain the implementations of the methods laid out in the header fine. And finally the Driver should test/demonstrate all the features of the class. It's best to develop the driver as the class is being written. Check each section to see if there are added additional requirements for the driver. Two test suites are included so that work can be checked. It's important to implement the drivers to test and demonstrate…

- Prompt We have learned how to use accessor and mutator methods to access private class member data. It is possible to instead make the class members public, which would allow other programs to directly retrieve and modify the class member data without needing to write the accessor and mutator methods. This is usually considered bad practice. Why do you think that is? What do you think the benefits are to writing accessor and mutator methods instead of just leaving the variables public? Below is the definition for a class called Counter. Define a new method for this class called "findDifference". This method should take another Counter object as an argument and return the difference in the counts between the counter being called and the one passed as an argument. The difference should be given as an absolute value (not returned as a negative). See below the class definition for examples of this method being used. public class Counter {private int count;public Counter() {count =…arrow_forwardDesign and implement a Restaurant class with at least three meaningful attributes and two methods.

Some possible attributes are name, numberOfTables, cuisine, numberOfReservations, capacity, etc. Some possible methods are make Reservation, checkAvailability, etc. Note the following: -All properties must be declared as private and you need accessor and mutator methods for each property. - You need to define at least one constructor.

RobotFriend is a new toy just on the market. Copy the starter class and the tester from Codecheck. A RobotFriend has a name and replies to various commands Provide a constructor that takes the name of the RobotFriend as a parameter. Remember that a constructor has the same name as the class. What does the class need to remember? That is the instance variable. Provide the following methods: public String getName () gets the name of this RobotFriend • public void setName (String newName) sets a new name for this RobotFriend • public String whatDoYouNeed () returns a string consisting of name + needs a battery charge" where name is the name of this RobotFriend (which was supplied in the constructor) public String doCommand (String whatToDo) returns a string consisting of "Your friend " + name + does not + whatToDo where name is the name of this RobotFriend and whatToDo is the parameterarrow_forward

- Write a shoe class with the following attributes: color (e.g., "blue", "green", "orange") displayName (e.g., "nikes, adidas", "puma") price (e.g., 100, 200,60) Include only one constructor. It should have parameters for each of the attributes and set their values. Additionally, include getters and setters for each of the attributes. Add a driver, name it Purchases, and create 2 objects. Finally, print out some information about both objects (i.e., print the information from some or all of the getters). For example, if you created a shoe object whose color was blue, whose display name was shoes , for a price of 230, you could use the getters to print something like this:These work trousers are blue and cost $230arrow_forwardDeeper Class Design - the Square Class In this section, your job will be to write a new class that will adhere to the methods and data outlined in the “members” section below (said another way, your classes will implement a specific set of functions (called an interface) that we’ll describe contractually, ahead of time). These classes will all be shapes, with actions (methods) that are appropriate to shape objects, such as “getArea()”, or “draw()”. First we build a Square class that contains the following data and methods listed below, and then later, we will copy it to quickly make a Circle class. Note: when considering each data item below, think about what type of data would best represent the concept we’re trying to model in our software. For example, all shapes will have a coordinate pair indicating their location in a Cartesian coordinate system. This x and y pair may be modeled as ints or floats, and you might choose between the two depending on what the client application will…arrow_forwardGoal 1: Update the Fractions Class Here we will overload two functions that will used by the Recipe class later: multipliedBy, dividedBy Previously, these functions took a Fraction object as a parameter. Now ADD an implementation that takes an integer as a parameter. The functionality remains the same: Instead of multiplying/dividing the current object with another Fraction, it multiplies/divides with an integer (affecting numerator/denominator of the returned object). For example; a fraction 2/3 when multiplied by 4 becomes 8/3. Similarly, a fraction 2/3 when divided by 4 becomes 1/6. Goal 2: Update the Recipe Class The Recipe constructors so far did not specify how many servings the recipe is for. We will now add a private member variable of type int to denote the serving size and initialize it to 1. This means all recipes are initially constructed for a single serving. Update the overloaded extraction operator (<<) to include the serving size (see sample output below for an…arrow_forward
