Chapter 6, Problem 5E
Consider a class characteristic that will be used in an online dating service to assess how compatible two people are. Its attributes are
- description—a string that identifies the characteristic
- rating—an integer between 1 and 10 that indicates a person’s desire for this characteristic in another person
- a. Write a constructor that sets the description of the characteristic to a given string and sets the rating to zero to indicate that it has not yet been determined.
- b. Write a private method isValid (aRating) that returns true if the given rating is valid, that is. is between 1 and 10.
- c. Write a method setRating(aRating) that sets the rating to aRating if it is valid.
- d. Write a method setRating that reads a rating from the keyboard, insisting that the rating supplied by the user be valid.

1. Smart Home Automation:o Connect a temperature sensor and a fan to a home gateway.o Configure the home gateway so that the fan is activated when the temperature exceedsa set threshold (e.g., 30°C).2. WiFi Network Configuration:o Set up a wireless LAN with a unique SSID.o Enable WPA2 encryption to secure the WiFi network.o Implement MAC address filtering to allow only specific clients to connect.3. WLC Configuration:o Deploy at least two wireless access points connected to a Wireless LAN Controller(WLC).o Configure the WLC to manage the APs, broadcast the configured SSID, and applyconsistent security settings across all APs.
