Chapter 8, Problem 1E
Consider a program that will keep track of the items in a school’s library. Draw a class hierarchy, including a base class, for the different kinds of items. Be sure to also consider items that cannot be checked out.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Class hierarchy for school library:
- In the above diagram, “Library” is the base class, “Book”, “Audio visual material”, and “Periodicals” are the derived classes of the “Library”.
- The “Reference Book”, and “Text Books” are the derived classes of the “Book” class.
- The “Magazine”, and “Newspaper” are the derived classes of the “Periodicals” class.
- Here, every book must be checked out.

Students have asked these similar questions
A boatman, a wolf, a sheep, and a cabbage are on the bank of a river. They have
a small boat that is capable of carrying the boatman and at most one other
animal/item with him. However, if left alone by the boatman, the wolf can eat the
sheep, and the sheep can eat the cabbage. How can all four be moved safely to
the opposite bank of the river?
Here is a nice visualization of the whole process in the original game. Disclaimer:
writers, testers and CodeChef are not related to this link.
This leads to a more general problem. If there are other groups of animals/items
with the boatman, is it possible to move them all to the opposite bank of the river in
such a way that nobody/nothing gets eaten?
We will give you the number of animals/items (not including the boatman).
Moreover, we will give you all a list of pairs of the form "X Y" where the X-th
animalitem will be eaten by the Y-th one if they are both on the opposite bank to
the boatman.
You are to determine whether it is possible to…
Draw the UML diagram for the classes and implement them. Write a test program that creates a Person, Student, Employee, Faculty, and Staff, and invokes their toString() methods.
In programming, we use the mask concept to indicate information that can be shown to the user and information that must be “masked”, that is, hidden. In an implementation of a hangman game, we use a mask to indicate which secret word positions the player has already guessed right (whose the contents must therefore be shown to the player), and which positions must remain hidden. Each time that the player hits a letter of the hidden word, the mask is updated so that it has little dashes in the places of letters that the player has not hit yet and show it, in their proper place, the letters that he already hit it.
For example, if the word is "cards", the current mask is: - a - - s and the player guesses the letter "d", the mask should be updated to: - a - ds.Write a function called update_mask that takes as input a string containing the word secret (in the example above, this word would be “cards”), a list whose elements are the characters of the current mask (in the example above…

Frogs can move up to 2squares in any direction, and flies can move up to 1. Frogs make the "Croak! Croak!" sound, and fliesmake "ZzzZZz!". Since frogs should not eat their kind, a function of "isEatable" should also beimplemented in decision making. A variable or function to check if the fly is alive is also required as aterminate condition for simulation.In each iteration, an 'f' character represents frogs' position on board, and an '*' character is used torepresent the position of fly.

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.

There are some players with different strategies, and a cyclical board with several fields. Players can move around the board, by moving forward with the amount they rolled with a dice. A field can be a property, service, or lucky field. A property can be bought for 1000, and stepping on it the next time the player can build a house on it for 4000. If a player steps on a property field which is owned by somebody else, the player should pay to the owner 500, if there is no house on the field, or 2000, if there is a house on it. Stepping on a service field, the player should pay to the bank (the amount of money is a parameter of the field). Stepping on a lucky field, the player gets some money (the amount is defined as a parameter of the field). There are three different kind of strategies exist. Initially, every player has 10000. Greedy player: If he steps on an unowned property, or his own property without a house, he starts buying it, if he…arrow_forward

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_forwardHelp, I am making a elevator simulation using polymorphism. I am not sure to do now.

Suppose you’re in charge of this simulation and here is a scenario of what is required to do: The customer will be assigned a random or fixed number for his/her balance. First, the customer is prompted to enter his personal identification number pin (for this case study, we test only if this pin is formed by 4 digits! otherwise, a message like “Invalid PIN, try again . . .” will be displayed) and the user is re-prompted to enter the pin. The customer is given three chances to enter his pin. If he/she fails during the three trials you display a message like “Sorry you can’t continue, contact your bank for assistance!” If the pin is correct (formed by 4 digits), then the system will ask the customer for the receipt ( 1 for YES and 2 for NO ) and a menu…arrow_forwardIn this activity, we are going to plan out and write a class definition that stores information for a book.

Give use cases for placing an order and settling the bill. b. Identify a list of possible classes. Pick two of these classes, and write CRC cards for them.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_forward
