22. Suppose that you need to have a class that can sort an array in ascending order or descending order upon request. If an array is already sorted in ascending or descending order, you can easily sort it the other way by reversing it. Now suppose you have two different classes that encapsulate arrays. One provides a member function to reverse its array, while the other provides a member function to sort its array. Can you use multiple inheritance to obtain a quick solution to your problem? Should you? Write a couple of paragraphs explaining whether using multiple inheritance will or will not work to solve this problem, and, if it can, whether this is a good way to solve the problem.

- JAVA PROGRAM Create a class EmployeeImp and do the following implement interface EmployeeInterface Define the following attributes: int count and an array variable of type Employee. Write a default constructor and initialize array Employee with the size defined in EmployeeInterface Write a constructor that accepts size of an array as parameter. Create array Employee with the parameter size. Use the attached photo of diagram below as reference for the data members of each class. Note: No need to define interface EmployeeInterface, Employee, HourlyEmployee and CommisionEmployeearrow_forwardIn number theory, a value can be categorized as a natural number (a whole number >0, often denoted ℕ), an integer (zero or a positive or negative whole number, including the natural numbers, often denoted ℤ), or a real number (which includes the natural numbers and integers, along with all other positive and negative numbers that are not integers, often denoted ℝ). a) write a definition for a number class that contains: (i) A single field suitable for storing either a natural number, or an integer, or a real number; (ii) Setter and getter methods for manipulating this field; (iii) A constructor that initializes new objects of number to have the value 1 (unity); (iv) a method that determines which kind of number is currently stored (returning 0 if the number is real and an integer and a natural number, 1 if the number is real and integer but not a natural number, and 2 if the number is real but neither an integer nor a natural number) Java code neededarrow_forwardJAVA-Homework Write a Java program to create Human as a class with Hpersonname and Hpersonage as members of class HUman, and can make employee and Lecturer as the subclasses of Human (a class can have any number of subclasses). In the employee class, we can define grade member and in the Lecturer class also income member will be defined. 1. The program must be able to store information about employee and Lecturer. we want to store the Hpersonname and Hpersonage with grade of employee and the Hpersonname and Hpersonage with income of lecturer.arrow_forward

An address has a house number street optional apartment number city state postal code. All member variables should be private and the member functions should be public. Implement two constructors: one with an apartment number one without an appartment number. Implement a print function that prints the address with the street on one line and the city, state, and postal code on the next line. Implement a member function comesBefore that tests whether one address comes before another when the addresses are compared by postal code. Returns false if both zipcodes are equal. Use the provided main.cpp to start with. The code creates three instances of the Address class (three objects) to test your class. Each object will utilize a different constructor. You will need to add the class definition and implementation. The comesBefore function assumes one address comes before another based on zip code alone. The test will also return…arrow_forwardPROGRAMMING LANGUAGE: C++ Write a program that has a base class named FlightCrew. This class shouldhave three data members: an integer to store the ID of the crew member, aninteger to store the number of years of service and another integer to storethe total salary of the member. Provide a parameterized constructor in theclass to set the values of the data members.Derive a class Pilot from FlightCrew to contain two additional data members,an integer to store the number of hours of flight and a boolean to storewhether the Pilot has military experience or not. Provide a paramete rizedconstructor in the Pilot class. Provide a function bonus() in the class wherethe bonus of a pilot is his number of flight hours times the 10% of his salary.Likewise, provide a function isEligible() in the class to find out if the pilot iseligible for promotion or not. A pilot is eligible for promotion to the nextrank if he has at least 5 years of experience and the number of total flighthours is greater…arrow_forward
- Develop class Polynomial . The internal representation of a Polynomial is an array of terms. Each term contains a coefficient and an exponent—e.g., the term 2x4has the coefficient 2 and the exponent 4. Develop a complete class containing proper constructor and destructor functions as well as set and get functions. The class should also provide the following overloaded operator capabilities: "Overload the subtraction operator ( - ) to subtract two Polynomial s."arrow_forwardThe Critter class is a base class with some basic functionality for running simulations of different kinds of critters. Critters can move, act, and remember their history. A typical simulation contains a number of critters of different types. In each step of the simulation, the act member function will be called on each critter. Define a class Sloth derived from Critter that simulates a sloth. Sloths alternate between eating and sleeping. Add the word "eat" or "sleep" to the history each time the act function is called. The implementation of the Critter class is not shown. Complete the following file: sloth_Tester.cpp #include <iostream>using namespace std; #include "critter.h" /**A sloth eats and sleeps.*/class Sloth : public Critter{public:Sloth();. . .private:. . .}; Sloth::Sloth(){. . .} void Sloth::act(){if (...) {add_history("eat");...}else{add_history("sleep");... }} int main(){Sloth sloth;sloth.act();cout << sloth.get_history() << endl;cout <<…arrow_forwardCreate a class of Person having private data members.

If i have 4 Student objects how can i print the information for the specific object given one parameter about the class, like the students Idnumber. What i came up with was making a checkId void function that takes the user input and runs an if else chain checking if the Id belongs to student 1-4 then printing the details of that classes object with the void function print. ideally i would want the if-else chain in the checkId function to call the print( student1-4) class object but im not sure how to properly do that. i dont think this is the best way to go about it, if you have any recommendations or alternatives please help me out.arrow_forward
