Chapter 8, Problem 3E

Explanation of Solution

Accessor method:

//definition of "Point" class

public class Point

{

    //declare the required variables

    int x;

    int y;

    //definition of "manhattanDistance" method

    public int manhattanDistance(Point other)

    {

/*declare the "dx" variable and calculate the value*/

        int dx = x - other.x;

/*declare the "dx" variable and calculate the value*/

        int dy = y - other.y;

        //return the result

        return Math...
