SECTION B (60 Marks)
Attempt any FOUR questions from this Section.
The answers in this section should consist of the programs in either Blue J environment or any
program environment with Java as the base.
Each program should be written using Variable descriptions/Mnemonic codes so that the logic of the
program is clearly depicted.
Flow-charts and algorithms are not required.
Question 3 [15]
Design a class with the following specifications:
Class name: OnlineOrder
Data Members:
String name - to store the customer's name.
double orderAmt - to store the total amount of the items ordered in the cart.
char type - to store the delivery type:
‘S’ for Standard delivery
‘E’ for Express delivery
double totalAmt - to calculate and store the total amount paid.
void input( ) - to input values for all the member variables using Scanner class methods only.
void calculate( ) - to calculate the total payable amount as follows:
GST at 18% of orderAmt
Delivery charges:
• • Rs 40 for Standard delivery
• • Rs 100 for Express delivery
totalAmt = orderAmt + GST + delivery charge
void display( )- displays the details in the following format.
Name of consumer Ordered Amount Total Amount
--------------------- -------------------- -----------------
Write the main method to create an object and call the above methods.
Question 4 [15]
Define a class to accept a string and Convert to uppercase. Encode the string by replacing each
vowel by the next character and every Consonant by the previous character. Display the output in
the format shown below.
Input: COMPUTER
Output:
Input String Encoded String
COMPUTER BPLOVSFQ
Question 5 [15]
Write a program in Java to input ‘n’ integers in a one-dimensional array (in ascending order).
Then, input an element to be searched using the binary search technique and display whether it
is present in the array or not, along with its position (index). Page 8 of 8
Question 6 [15]
Define a class to accept integer values in 3x 3 array and check whether it is a Sparse matrix or
not .Also print the original array .
A matrix is called a sparse matrix if most of the elements in that matrix is [Link],count of zero
elements present in the array must be greater than the total number of elements in the array
Example
Input
003
000
400
Output
It is a sparse matrix
Question 7 [15]
Define a class to overload the method perform() as follows:-
volume=23𝜋𝑟3
public void perform (double r) – calculate and display the volume of a hemisphere.
public void perform() – display the following pattern using nested for loop.
1
##
333
####
55555
######
7777777
public void performs (char a) - check and display the message "It is a special character" if the
character in ‘a’ is neither a letter nor a digit. Otherwise, display "It is not a special character".
Question 8 [15]
Write a program to input two integer numbers and check if they are Amicable numbers or not.
Amicable numbers are two numbers such that the sum of the proper divisors (excluding the
number itself) of each number is equal to the other number.
Examples: 220 and 284 are amicable number
Proper divisors of 220: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 11, 20, 22, 44, 55, 110
Sum = 1 + 2 + 4 + 5 + 10 + 11 + 20 + 22 + 44 + 55 + 110 = 284
Proper divisors of 284: 1, 2, 4, 71, 142
Sum = 1 + 2 + 4 + 71 + 142 = 220
Thus, 220 and 284 is a pair of amicable number
