Question 1: Loan Processing System (Spring + Strategy Pattern + Annotation)
=============================================================================
Develop a Loan Processing System that allows users to apply for loans through
different financial institutions such as HDFC and ICICI. Each institution has its
own logic for processing applications. The system must support applying for a loan,
rejecting a loan, and viewing all applications.
Requirements:
Interface: LoanService with methods: applyLoan, rejectLoan, and viewApplications.
Implementations: HDFCService and ICICIService, each with properties like
branchCode, interestRate, managerName.
Exceptions:
LoanProcessingException: Thrown when a loan application is invalid.
InvalidLoanOperationException: Thrown when trying to reject a non-existent loan.
Create one LoanApplication which has LoanService Interface as a property which is
following Has-A relation and use constructor Injection to inject LoanService class
bean or object [Design the entire program by declaring all the class by final which
should follow the pattern of Stratergy Design Pattern]
Spring Configuration(AppConfig): Use Annoataion
Main Application: LoanManagerApplication should delegate calls to the appropriate
LoanService implementation.
User Interface: Console-based app using Scanner for input with options to:
Apply for Loan
Reject Loan
View All Applications

Question 2: Shipping Cost Calculation System Using Strategy Design Pattern
(Spring + Annotation(AppConfig))
=============================================================================
You are tasked with building a Shipping Cost Calculation System for an e-commerce
platform that sells a variety of products. The system needs to calculate shipping
costs based on various shipping methods, such as Standard Shipping, Express
Shipping, and Overnight Shipping. Each shipping method has its own logic for
calculating the cost, factoring in parameters like weight, distance, and urgency of
delivery.
Shipping Methods and Their Associated Costs:
Standard Shipping:
Cost Calculation:
Charges $5 per kg for the weight of the product.
Charges $0.5 per km for the delivery distance.
Express Shipping:
Cost Calculation:
Charges $10 per kg for the weight of the product.
Charges $1 per km for the delivery distance.
Description: Express shipping provides faster delivery, which results in a higher
cost compared to standard shipping.
Overnight Shipping:
Cost Calculation:
Charges $20 per kg for the weight of the product.
Charges $2 per km for the delivery distance.
Description: A premium service for overnight delivery, the most expensive shipping
option.
System Requirements:
Support multiple shipping methods: The system must support various shipping methods
(e.g., Standard, Express, Overnight).
Use different cost calculation strategies: Each shipping method should have its own
unique cost calculation logic based on the weight and distance.
Extensibility: The system should be easily extensible to support new shipping
methods (e.g., Same Day Shipping, International Shipping) without modifying the
core logic.
Leverage the Strategy Design Pattern: Implement the Strategy Design Pattern to
ensure that the shipping methods can be easily switched, and the cost calculation
strategy can be dynamically selected.
Classes and Interface Requirements:
Define a common strategy interface: Create an interface ShippingCostStrategy with a
method calculateShippingCost that accepts the weight and distance as parameters and
returns the calculated shipping cost.
Create concrete strategies: Implement concrete strategies for StandardShipping,
ExpressShipping, and OvernightShipping. Each strategy should contain the cost
calculation logic as specified above.
Create a context class: Design a class ShippingCostContext that will use the
injected strategy to calculate the shipping cost. This class should allow for
dynamic switching of strategies.
