Define a class

Declare a class named Greeter that takes a string on creation and greets using this string if you call the "greet" method.
java
class Greeter
{
public Greeter(String whom) { this.whom = whom; }
public void greet() { System.out.printf("Hello, %s\n", whom); }
private String whom;
}

public class Solution381 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
(new Greeter("world")).greet();
}
}
cpp
class Greeter
{
public:
Greeter(const std::string& whom);
void greet() const;

private:
std::string whom;
};

int main()
{
Greeter* gp = new Greeter("world");
gp->greet();
delete gp;
}

Greeter::Greeter(const std::string& whom) : whom(whom) {}

void Greeter::greet() const
{
std::cout << "Hello, " << whom << std::endl;
}
public ref class Greeter
{
public:
Greeter(String^ whom);
void greet();

private:
initonly String^ whom;
};

int main()
{
(gcnew Greeter(L"world"))->greet();
}

Greeter::Greeter(String^ whom) : whom(whom) {}

void Greeter::greet()
{
Console::WriteLine(L"Hello, {0}", whom);
}
csharp
using System;

class Greeter
{
private string name {get;set;}

public void Greet(){
Console.WriteLine("Hello, {0}",name);
}

public Greeter(string name){
this.name = name;
}
}

class Test
{
static void Main()
{
new Greeter("Dante").Greet();
}
}
fsharp
type Greeter(whom' : string) =
member this.greet() = printfn "Hello, %s!" whom'

(new Greeter("world")).greet()
type Greeter(whom' : string) =
let whom : string = whom'
member this.greet() = printfn "Hello, %s!" whom

(new Greeter("world")).greet()
type Greeter =
class
val whom : string
new(whom') = { whom = whom' }
member this.greet() = printfn "Hello, %s!" this.whom
end

(new Greeter("world")).greet()

Instantiate object with mutable state

Reimplement the Greeter class so that the 'whom' property or data member remains private but is mutable, and is provided with getter and setter methods. Invoke the setter to change the greetee, invoke 'greet', then use the getter in displaying the line, "I have just greeted {whom}.".

For example, if the greetee is changed to 'Tommy' using the setter, the 'greet' method would display:

Hello, Tommy!

The getter would then be used to display the line:

I have just greeted Tommy.
java
class Greeter {
private String whom;

public Greeter(String whom) {
this.whom = whom;
}

public String getWhom() {
return whom;
}

public void setWhom(String whom) {
this.whom = whom;
}

public void greet() {
System.out.println("Hello " + whom + "!");
}
}
Greeter greeter = new Greeter("World");
greeter.greet();
greeter.setWhom("Tommy");
greeter.greet();
System.out.println("I have just greeted " + greeter.getWhom() + ".");
cpp
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class Greeter {
string whom_;

public:
Greeter(const string &whom) : whom_(whom) {}

string get_whom() const {
return whom_;
}

void set_whom(const string &whom) {
whom_ = whom;
}

void greet() const {
cout << "Hello " << whom_ << "!" << endl;
}
};

int main()
{
Greeter greeter("world");
greeter.greet();
greeter.set_whom("Tommy");
greeter.greet();
cout << "I have just greeted " + greeter.get_whom() << "." << endl;
}
csharp
class Greeter
{
public string Name {get;set;}

public void Greet(){
Console.WriteLine("Hello, {0}",Name);
}

public Greeter(string name){
this.Name = name;
}

// Driver
public static void Main()
{
var g = new Greeter("Dante");

g.Name = "Tommy";
g.Greet();
Console.Write("I have just greated {0}", g.Name);
}
}
fsharp
type Greeter(name:string) =
let mutable whom = name

member this.Whom
with get () = whom
and set v = whom <- v

member this.Greet() =
printfn "Hello, %s!" whom

let greeter = Greeter("World")
greeter.Greet()
greeter.Whom <- "Tommy"
greeter.Greet()
printfn "I have just greeted %s." greeter.Whom

Implement Inheritance Heirarchy

Implement a Shape abstract class which will form the base of an inheritance hierarchy that models 2D geometric shapes. It will have:

* A non-mutable 'name' property or data member set by derived or descendant classes at construction time
* A 'area' method intended to be overridden by derived or descendant classes ( double precision floating point return value)
* A 'print' method (also for overriding) will display the shape's name, area, and all shape-specific values

Two derived or descendant classes will be created:
* Circle    -> Constructor requires a '
radius' argument, and a 'circumference' method to be implemented  
* Rectangle -> Constructor requires '
length' and 'breadth' arguments, and a 'perimeter' method to be implemented 

Instantiate an object of each class, and invoke each objects '
print' method to show relevant details.

Implement and use an Interface

Create a Serializable interface consisting of 'save' and 'restore' methods, each of which:

* Accept a stream or handle or descriptor argument for the source or destination
* Save to destination or restore from source the properties or data members of the implementing class (restrict yourself to the primitive types 'int' and 'string')

Next, create a Person class which has 'name' and 'age' properties or data members and implements this interface. Instantiate a Person object, save it to a serial stream, and instantiate a new Person object by restoring it from the serial stream.
java
// Serialization to a file
class Person implements Serializable {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private String name;
private int age;
public void setAge(int age) {
this.age = age;
}
public int getAge() {
return age;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public boolean equals(Object obj) {
if(obj == this) return true;
if(obj instanceof Person) {
Person p = (Person) obj;
return (p.getName().equals(this.getName())
& p.getAge() == this.getAge());
}
return false;
}
public String toString() {
return "Name: " + name + ", age: " + age;

oos.close();

ois.close();
System.out.println(deserializedPerson);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
