Pedagogical Note
The exercises in Chapters 9-13 help you achieve three objectives:
Design classes and draw UML class diagrams.
Implement classes from the UML.
Use classes to develop applications.
Students can download solutions for the UML diagrams for the even-numbered exer-
cises from the Companion Website, and instructors can download all solutions from
the same site.
Sections 9.2-9.5
9.1
three objectives
( The Rectangle class ) Following the example of the Circle class in Section 9.2,
design a class named Rectangle to represent a rectangle. The class contains:
Two double data fields named width and height that specify the width and
height of the rectangle. The default values are 1 for both width and height .
A no-arg constructor that creates a default rectangle.
A constructor that creates a rectangle with the specified width and height .
A method named getArea() that returns the area of this rectangle.
A method named getPerimeter() that returns the perimeter.
Draw the UML diagram for the class and then implement the class. Write a test
program that creates two Rectangle objects—one with width 4 and height 40
and the other with width 3.5 and height 35.9 . Display the width, height, area,
and perimeter of each rectangle in this order.
9.2
( The Stock class ) Following the example of the Circle class in Section  9.2,
design a class named Stock that contains:
A string data field named symbol for the stock's symbol.
A string data field named name for the stock's name.
A double data field named previousClosingPrice that stores the stock
price for the previous day.
A double data field named currentPrice that stores the stock price for the
current time.
A constructor that creates a stock with the specified symbol and name.
A method named getChangePercent() that returns the percentage changed
from previousClosingPrice to currentPrice .
Draw the UML diagram for the class and then implement the class. Write a test
program that creates a Stock object with the stock symbol ORCL , the name
Oracle Corporation , and the previous closing price of 34.5 . Set a new current
price to 34.35 and display the price-change percentage.
Section 9.6
*9.3
( Use the Date class ) Write a program that creates a Date object, sets its elapsed
time to 10000 , 100000 , 1000000 , 10000000 , 100000000 , 1000000000 ,
10000000000 , and 100000000000 , and displays the date and time using the
toString() method, respectively.
*9.4
( Use the Random class ) Write a program that creates a Random object with seed
1000 and displays the first 50 random integers between 0 and 100 using the
nextInt(100) method.
