SECTION B (40 Marks)
Attempt Question 9 and any 2 other questions
Question 9 [10]
Design a class to overload a function volume( ) as follows:
void volume(int s) – To calculate and print the volume of a cube (side3).
void volume(int l,int b,int h) – To calculate and print the volume of a cuboid (length x breadth x height).
void volume(double r) – To calculate and print the volume of a sphere (4/3𝜋𝜋𝑟𝑟 3 ).
Question 10 [15]
Input a sentence and a word. Print the output after excluding that word from the sentence (if found).
A variable description table is to be written.
Sample Input: Rahul has worked very hard. His performance is very good.
Keyword: very
Sample Output: Rahul has worked hard. His performance is good.
Question 11 [15]
Write a program to enter 10 integers each in two different arrays. Find and print if they are mirror images of each
other or not. A variable description table is to be written.
Eg. a[]={1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} and b[]={10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1} are mirror images.
Question 12 [15]
A library issues books on a rental basis at a 2% charge on the cost price of the book per day. As per the rules of the
library, a book can be retained for 7 days without any fine. If the book is returned after 7 days, a fine will be charged
for the excess days as per the chart given below:
Number of excess days Fine per day
1 to 5 2.00
6 to 10 3.00
Above 10 days 5.00
Design a class Library to perform the task. The details of the class is given below:
Class name : Library
Data members
name : name of the book
author : author of the book
p : price of the book in decimals
d : number of days taken in returning the book.
f : to store the fine.
Member functions
Library(…) : parameterized constructor to assign values to data members.
void fine() : calculate the fine for excess days.
void display() : displays the book details along with the number of days, fine and total amount to be paid.
Total amount is calculated as:
(2% of price of book * total no. of days) + fine
Write the main function to create an object and call the methods.
A variable description table need not be written.
