Please, submit your homework electronically using the "submit" system.
Please try to follow the "good programming" conventions
we discussed in class. Write modular code and include all
of your functions in the same CPP file as your main.
(HW_5_1.cpp/exe)
Write a Point, Square, Cube program. Do this with inheritance
much like we did the Point, Circle, Cylinder example in class.
You need to provide at least as many member functions
within each class as to gain the complete functionality we saw
in class (e.g., printing objects of each type, interface methods
for setting/getting private members, coordinates, areas, volume
computation tools, etc.) We have the following basic inheritance
relationships betweeen the three data types:
Point <-- Square <-- Cube, in other words, Square extends
Point and Cube objects extend Squares.
Sample Run:
%> This program illustrates the use of class-extensions, inheritance
and polymorphism with the objects: Point <-- Square <-- Cube
%> The default settings are: X coordinate is 12,
Y coordinate is 23 and
Size of 2.5
%> The Cube printed as a Point is:[12,23]
%> The Cube printed as a Square is:
Center =[12,23];Size =2.5 units
%> The area of the Square is 6.25 units2.
The surface area of the Cube is 37.5 units2.
The volume of the Cube is 15.625 units3
%> Would you like to enter a new set of parameters (Y/N)?
%> Y
%> Enter X and Y coordinates as integers and
Size as a double, in that order.
%> 2 3 4.0
%> You entered: X coordinate is 2,
Y coordinate is 3 and
Size of 4.0
%> The Cube printed as a Point is:[2,3]
%> The Cube printed as a Square is:
Center =[2,3];Size =4.0 units
%> The area of the Square is 16 units2.
The surface area of the Cube is 96.0 units2.
The volume of the Cube is 64.0 units3
%> Would you like to enter a new set of parameters (Y/N)?
%> N
%> Bye!
