Chapter 8, Problem 5E
Create a class Square derived from DrawableShape, as described in the previous exercise. A Square object should know the length of its sides The class should have an accessor method and a mutator method for this length. It should also have methods for computing the area and perimeter of the square. Although characters are taller than they are wide—so the number of characters in the vertical sides will differ from the number in the horizontal sides—you need not worry about this detail when drawing the square.

Design an application that does the following: A Solid can be a FlatSurfaceSolid or a CurvedSurfaceSolid. Every solid will have a volume. The method volume will be polymorphic. A solid has faces, vertices and edges. A flat-surface solid also has a variable called side which represents the length of the side. A curved-surface solid also has a radius. A Cube is a FlatSurfaceSolid. A cube has 6 faces, 8 vertices and 12 edges. It will have a side. A Sphere is a CurvedSurfaceSolid. It has 1 face, 0 vertices and 0 edges. It will have a radius. Create an ArrayList of solids (driver file named YourLastNameCISC231Q1.java). The arraylist will have 4 elements – 2 cubes (one with side length 3 and another will side length 4) and 2 spheres (one with radius 3 and another with radius 4). Create a driver class to instantiate an array of solids and display the details of each solid along with the volume of each solid.

It should have a double field called length, as well as a constructor that initializes this length field to a given value. 2: In the main() method of Pentagon class, add the following code: RegularPolygon sq = new Square(10); RegularPolygon penta = new Pentagon(20); Write code to get the perimeter for sq and penta. 3: In the main() method defined in Q2, add this line of code: sq.getArea(); Will this code pass through compiler?

Name your class rightTraingle. Code getter and setters for the base and the height. (Remember class variables are private.) The class should include a two-argument constructor that allows the program to set the base and height. The constructor should verify that all the dimensions are greater than 0. before assigning the values to the private data members. If a side is not greater than zero, set the value to -1. The class also should include two value-returning methods. One value-returning method should calculate the area of a triangle, and the other should calculate the perimeter of a triangle. If either side is -1, these functions return a -1. The formula for calculating the area of a triangle is 1/2 * b*h, where b is the base and h is the height. The formula for calculating the perimeter of a triangle is b+h+sqrt (b*b+h*h). Be sure to include a default constructor that initializes the variables of the base, height to -1.

- A Door Class A computer game usually has many different objects that can be seen and manipulated. One typical object is a door. Whether a player runs through a castle, attacks the forces of an evil empire, or places furniture in a room, a door often comes into play. Implement a Door class as described below as well as a TestDoor class that instantiates three Door objects labeled “Enter,” “Exit,” and “Treasure.” The “Enter” door should be left unlocked and opened. The “Exit” door should be left closed and locked. The “Treasure” door should be left open but locked. A Door class A Door object can • display an inscription, • be either open or closed, and • be either locked or unlocked. Here are some rules about how Door’s work. • Once the writing on a Door is set, it cannot be changed. • You may open a Door if and only if it is unlocked and closed. • You may close a Door if and only if it is open. • You may lock a Door if and only if it is unlocked, and unlock a Door if…arrow_forwardProblem: Bugs are simple creatures that only know how to walk towards other bugs. Bugs maintain information about their (x, y) position; by which it can tell if they are standing next to other bugs. Watch the following video: bug movement. Create a java project that simulate bugs movement. You need to write a class “Bug" that models a bug moving along a straight line and it can turn to change its direction counterclockwise (i.e. 90 degree to the left; north → west → south → east → north). In each move, its position changes by one unit in the current direction. Details of the "Bug" class is described below. Your simulator should read information of an unknown number of “Bug" objects from an input file called “Bugs.txt". Each line represents a bug and the initial position and facing direction of this particular bug. Keeping the first bug position as a reference the simulator should move the second bug next to the first bug forming a cluster and its final position and direction should be…arrow_forwardPlease do it in JavaScript or C# 1) Design and implement the class structure for a drawing application. A drawing is made up of a canvas that contains a collection of three different shapes: circles, lines, and boxes. Each shape can be drawn by calling a Draw() method for that shape. The canvas class should also have a draw method that draws all of the shapes it contains. You don’t have to actually draw anything on a screen; you can simulate drawing by writing a message to the console.For example, the code snippet: canvas.Draw();Drawing a circle at...Drawing a line at...etc. (For each shape on the canvas) 2)(Bonus) Consider re-writing the above answer (#1) differently where the canvas does not contain the shapes, but is able to draw any of the three shapes passed to it. Re-design canvas.Draw() if you need to. Your main() program should ask for user input on what shape to draw. Ask once, draw, then exit.could produce something like the following output to the console:arrow_forward
