Chapter 6.4, Problem 35STQ
Consider the class Species in Listing 5.19 of Chapter 5. It has a method called setSpecies that sets the name, population, and growth rate of a species Could this class have another method setSpecies that has only one parameter for the name of the species and that sets both the population and the growth rate to zero? If so give the definition of this other method named setSpecies.

Solve using OOP in Java.
Given a class student that represents names and grades of a class:
1. How would we implement the Comparable interface in our class so we can compare the scores of individual students? Write
the complete Class Header implementing this interface.
2. Write the complete Method Header for the Student class's compareTo method. You do not need to write the body of the
method.
write the code in java.
Write the class Student having attributes name (String), age (int) and cgpa (double) and methods to set the values of attributes and to return them. There should be constructors (default, parameterize and copy) to initialize the value of attributes. Write another class name Student Management having array of students and count of students as attribute. There should be method for the following: 1. Add new Student in Array 2. Remove a Student from Array using Name (of Student) 3. Sort the Students in array using Name (ascending order) 4. Sort the Students in array using Age (ascending order) 5. Sort the Students in array using CGPA (ascending order) 6. Reverse the order of the Students in array 7. Display information of all Students in array (from zero index to last index)

- Solve using OOP in Java.arrow_forwardNow we are going to use the design pattern for collecting objects. We are going to create two classes, a class AmazonOrder that models Amazon orders and a class Item that models items in Amazon orders. An item has a name and a price, and the name is unique. The Item class has a constructor that takes name and price, in that order. The class also has getters and setters for the instance variables. This is the design pattern for managing properties of objects. The setName() method should do nothing if the parameter is the empty string, and the setPrice() method should do nothing if the parameter is not positive. The class also has a toString() method that returns a string representation for the item in the format “Item[Name:iPad,Price:399.99]”. For simplicity, we assume an Amazon order can have at most 5 items, and class AmazonOrder has two instance variables, an array of Item with a length of 5 and an integer numOfItems to keep track of the number of items in the…arrow_forwardExtend the functionality of the Carinventory class by introducing a new method called 'add_car. This method should facilitate the addition of custom cars to the inventory. The method should take two parameters: a car model and its price. Implement this method to ensure that the inventory is updated accordingly. Instantiate a new object of the car inventory, naming it 'Auto Emporium,' utilizing the extended class with the newly added 'add_car' method. Your next step is to add three distinct custom cars to 'AutoEmporium'-for example, "Sleek Sedan,' 'Sporty Convertible,' and 'Luxury SUV Assign varying prices to each of these cars. To conclude, utilize the 'display_inventory method to showcase the updated information about 'AutoEmporium." Verify that the output includes details about the newly added custom cars, ensuring that the prices are accurately reflected. This question tests the candidate's ability to implement a specific method, instantiate objects, add custom items, and…arrow_forward
- Program thisarrow_forwardIt's messy that in the Balrog class's getDamage() function and the Cyberdemon class's getDamage() function we have to write the name of the species before calling the Demon class's getDamage() function. It would be better if the Demon class's getDamage() function could print the name of the species. Taking this a step further, it would be even better if we didn't have to repeat the cout statement "The <whatever> attacks for ?? points!" in every class's getDamage() function. It would be better if that cout statement could occur just once, in the Creature class's getDamage() function. In the Creature class's getDamage() function, insert the following statement:cout << "The " << getSpecies() << " attacks for " << damage << " points!" << endl; Delete (or, if you prefer, comment out) the similar cout statements that appear in the getDamage() function of each of the 5 derived classes.

- By using JAVAarrow_forwardCreate a TestCard project with a TestCard class and a Card class. Data members for the Card class should be two numeric values representing the suit of the Card and the card's number. The Card class also has a constructor and methods for setting and getting the card information. See UML model. In the TestCard class within main(), deal two cards at a time by constructing two card objects. One card is the user's. The other is the computer's. Show both cards. Add a point to whoever had the higher card. Show who won the trick and the score. Scores don't change if a tie. Keep dealing until user wants to quit or 26 pairs have been dealt. UML for Card class -suit: int the number that corresponds to the suit of the card. 0 Hearts, 1 Diamonds, 2 Clubs, 3 Spades -value: int the value of the card.

Note: This problem requires you to submit only one class: MyDate.java. Do NOT include "public static void main()" method inside all of these classes. The classes would be tested, using the unit-testing framework JUnit 4. A class called MyDate, which models a date instance, is defined as shown in the class diagram. The MyDate class contains the following private instance variables: year (int): Between 1 to 9999. month (int): Between 1 (Jan) to 12 (Dec). day (int): Between 1 to 28|29|30|31, where the last day depends on the month and whether it is a leap year for Feb (28|29). It also contains the following public static final variables (drawn with underlined in the class diagram): MONTHS (String[]), DAYS (String[]), and DAY_IN_MONTHS (int[]): static variables, initialized as shown, which are used in the methods. The MyDate class has the following public static methods (drawn with underlined in…arrow_forward
- You are to write an Ant class to simulate Langton's Ant. In this simulation, a virtual "ant" moves about a two-dimensional square matrix, whose spaces can be designated white or black, according to the rules below: If the ant is on a white space, it will turn right 90 degrees relative to the directions it is facing, move forward one step, and change the space it left to black. If the ant is on a black space, it will turn left 90 degrees relative to the directions it is facing, move forward one step, and change the space it left to white. When the ant hits the edge of the board and is going to go out of the bounds, wrap the board around so the ant will appear on the other side. The matrix is initially composed of all white spaces. The user will specify the size of the square matrix. The user will also specify the number of steps that the ant will move and the starting location and direction of the ant. After the simulation, the final board with the ant position will be displayed to…arrow_forwardImplement all the classes using Java programming language from the given UML Class diagram. Note: This problem requires you to submit only one class: Ball.java. Do NOT include "public static void main()" method inside all of these classes. Graders will be testing your classes, using the unit-testing framework JUnit 4. A class called Ball is designed as shown in the class diagram. The Ball class contains the following private instance variables: x, y and radius, which represent the ball's center (x, y) co-ordinates and the radius, respectively. xDelta (Δx) and yDelta (Δy), which represent the displacement (movement) per step, in the x and y direction respectively. The Ball class contains the following public methods: A constructor which accepts x, y, radius, speed, and direction as arguments. For user friendliness, user specifies speed (in pixels per step) and direction (in degrees in the range of (-180°, 180°]). For the internal operations, the speed and direction are to be…arrow_forwardWrite a class that implements Employee class that is described in UML diagram given below.
