Chapter 11, Problem 2PP
Define a class for rational numbers. A rational number is a number that can be represented as the quotient of two integers. For example, 1/2, 3/4, 64/2, and so forth are all rational numbers. (By 1/2, etc., we mean the everyday meaning of the fraction, not the integer division this expression would produce in a C++ program.) Represent rational numbers as two values of type int, one for the numerator and one for the denominator. Call the class Rational.
Include a constructor with two arguments that can be used to set the member variables of an object to any legitimate values. Also include a constructor that has only a single parameter of type int; call this single parameter wholeNumber and define the constructor so that the object will be initialized to the rational number wholeNumber/1. Also include a default constructor that initializes an object to 0 (that is, to 0/1).
Overload the input and output operators >> and <<. Numbers are to be input and output in the form 1/2, 15/32, 300/401, and so forth. Note that the numerator, the denominator, or both may contain a minus sign, so −1/2, 15/32, and −300/−401 are also possible inputs. Overload all of the following operators so that they correctly apply to the type Rational: ==, <, <=, >, >=, +, −, *, and /. Also write a test program to test your class.
(Hints: Two rational numbers a/b and c/d are equal if a*d equals c*b. If b and d are positive rational numbers, a/b is less than c/d provided a*d is less than c*b. You should include a function to normalize the values stored so that, after normalization, the denominator is positive and the numerator and denominator are as small as possible. For example, after normalization 4/−8 would be represented the same as −1/2. You should also write a test program to test your class.)

Write C++ code of class Complex that would represent a complex number. A complex number consists of a real part and an imaginary part and usually displayed in the form + ἰ (a is real part while b is imaginary). This class should consists of void show( ) to display the complex number in the form a+ bi ( if imaginary part is positive) or a – bi ( if imaginary part is negative), void input( ) to assign values to the object of the Complex class. This Complex class should have two constructors i.e. default and parameterized. The object instantiated using default constructor should call input() to assign value to the real and imaginary part of the object. Also write code to overload + operator to add two complex numbers (objects). Comment your program properly and mention mutator and accessor as well. All functions should be inline except the constructors. Use this pointer wherever class data members are referred.
Define a new C++ class named “PayStub” that manages pay information: numberof hours (integer), hourly pay rate (double).The total payout amount will be calculated based on overtime. Any hour that ismore than 40 hours will be paid at a 1.5 pay rate.For example, with the hourly pay rate of $10.0 and if the number of hours is 40,the payout amount will be 400 and if the number of hours is 50 it will be (40 * 10)+ (10 * 15) = 550Please note that because the payout is a calculated value, it should not be part ofthe data members to make the object as small as possible.The class must provide at least the following two methods: • toString method that returns the string containing all the information aboutthe paystub including the total payout amount.For example, here is the output for different paystubs40 hours at $10.0 an hourHOURS(40) RATE($10.00) PAYOUT($400.00)50 hours at $10.0 an hourHOURS(50) RATE($10.00) PAYOUT($550.00)60 hours at $10.126 an hourHOURS(60) RATE($10.13)…

Write a program to test your class. Use integer variables to represent the private data of the class-the numerator and the denominator. Provide a constructor that enables an object of this class to be initialized when it's declared. The constructor should contain default values in case no initializers are provided and should store the fraction in reduced form. For example, the fraction 2/4 would be stored in the object as 1 in the numerator and 2 in the denominator. Provide public member functions that perform each of the following tasks: Make an overloaded operator of the + symbol for the add method - Adds two Rational numbers. The result should be stored in reduced form. Make an overloaded…arrow_forwardThis would be for C++ Write a program that calculates a target heart rate. It should have a class called Heart that has a string name and an int age. This class should have getter and setter methods for those member variables. It should also have a method that returns the maximum heart rate which is 220 minus age, a method that returns the maximum target heart rate which is 85% of the maximum heart rate, and a method that returns the minimum target heart rate which is 50% of the maximum. Write a driver program that prompts the user for a name (use getline to get names with spaces) and age and then prints the name, age, maximum heart rate, and the target heart rate. The output needs to be able to recreate the example shown below.

- Help write the code for the follwing problem starting from scratch Write a complete C++ program in three files here that asks the user to enter a radius for a circle then calculates and prints its' area. The area should be calculated using the formula area = 3.14 * radius * radius. You must have a class called Circle that stores the radius as a double value and can calculate its' own area via a method called calcArea that takes no parameters and returns the area. The circle class may not print the area or radius! Hint: calcArea should take no parameters and return a double. For this version, make radius private and write setter (mutator) and getter (accessor) methods and/or constructors as needed to modify (set) and retrieve (get) the value of radius. Input Validation: If a negative radius is passed to an object of the Circle class, whether through a setter or a constructor, set the radius to 0 instead of using the negative value.

For example, a degree can have "John Smith", 2020, and "Computer Science" It should have at least the following methods:- toString method must return all the degree information: year, subject, and person’s name.Here is an example of the formatted degree string:NAME(John Smith) SUBJECT(Computer Science) YEAR(2020) - hasTheSameDegree method compares 2 degrees and returns true if both have the same year and the same subject. Otherwise, it returns false. - isLater method that compares 2 degrees and returns true if the current degree has the year later than the 2nd degree and false otherwise. Important notes: - You can add as many other methods as you need. But this class should not provide the default constructor. - Show how this class and its methods are being used, called, and produce the correct results.arrow_forwardWrite in C++ Language (Happy Coding):Create a class named 'Programming'. While creating an object of the class, if nothing is passed to it, then the message "I love programming languages" should be printed. If some String is passed to it, then in place of "programming languages" the name of that String variable should be printed.For example, while creating the object if we pass "cpp", then "I love cpp" should be printed.arrow_forward
