Description

Assignment 6: Java Inheritance
Purpose:
A class in Java can extend another class to become a subclass. When class B extends class A, B becomes subclass (child) and A becomes superclass (parent). The subclass can reuse all the features of the parent class. An interface defines a set of specifications that other classes must implement. Implementing an interface allows a class to become more formal about the behavior it promises to provide.
In this assignment, we will practice how to extend classes and create corresponding objects. We will also practice using the interface. The meaning of implementing an interface is not very different than extending a class but it comes with an additional caveat. When a class implements an interface, it has to provide an implementation of all methods declared inside interface.
Program #1:
Finish Exercises 5, 6, 7, 8 in the end of Chapter 9 (Page657 and 658). A scanned copy is as the following.

Program #2:
Given partial codes of the Colored interface and Point class as the following:
//Colored interface public interface Colored{ public String getColor();
}
//Point class public class Point { private int x; private int y;
public Point() { this(0, 0);
}
public Point(int x, int y) { setLocation(x, y);
}
public boolean equals(Object o) { if (o instanceof Point) {
Point other = (Point) o;
return x == other.x && y == other.y;
} else { return false;
}
}
public void setLocation(int x, int y) { this.x = x; this.y = y;
}
public String toString() { return “(” + x + “, ” + y + “)”;
}
}
Write ColoredPoint class so that implements the Colored interface and extends Point so that Points have colors. Override toString method to print out the coordinates and color of the point, override equals method so that it compares color as well. And write the necessary constructors, accessors and mutators.
Write a client class and create objects of the ColoredPoint class. Print out the colored point and compare if they are equal.
Criteria:
1. Upload all of the .java and the .class files to the CSc1302 dropbox on http:// icollege.gsu.edu.
3. Make sure that both the .java and .class files are named and uploaded to icollege correctly. If any special package is used in the program, be sure to upload the package too. Should you use any other subdirectory (whatsoever) your program would not be graded, and you will receive a 0 (zero).
4. No copying allowed. If it is found that students copy from each other, all of these programs will get 0.
