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
such that the logic of the program is clearly depicted.
Flow-Charts and Algorithms are not required.
Question 5.
Define a class Student takes in the name, Roll No. and the total marks of five subjects of 20
students Each student is assigned a stream based on the following criteria:Average marks

Write a program to declare the class 'Student' and calculate the average of every student and the
stream assigned to them. Display the result in the format given below:
Name
..
..

Roll No.

Total Marks
..
..

Average

Stream

[15]

Question 6.
Write a program in Java to accept the name and contact numbers of 25 people. The program
should ask the user for a contact number and search for it in the contact numbers array using
the Binary Search technique. If the number is found, then the corresponding name is displayed
otherwise a proper error message is displayed.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Question 7.
Write a menu driven program to perform the following operations using switch-case:
(a)

Input an integer number and print the greatest and the smallest digits present in the number.
Example:
Input: n=2943
Output: Greatest digit = 9 and Smallest digit = 2

(b)

Input a line of text from the user and create a new word formed out of the first letter of each
word and convert the new word into Uppercase.
Example:
Input: Mangoes are delivered after Midday
Output: MADAM
[15]

Question 8.
The sum of two distances is calculated as:
Distance 1 =
10 feets
24 inches
Distance 2 =
5 feets
16 inches
Sum of Distances = 18 feets
4 inches
A class Distance has the following members:
Class Name
Data members

:
:

Member methods

Distance(int a, int b, int c, int d)


void showDistance()
void sumDistance()

:
:
:

Distance
f1,f2 (integers to store the feet value of 2 distances)
inc1,inc2 (integers to store the inch value of 2 distances)

constructor to assign a to f1, b to inc1, c to f2 and d to inc2


to display both the distances with suitable message
to find the sum of distances and print it.

Write a program in Java to input two distances and calculate their sum by applying proper
adjustments. Display the final result with appropriate message. [Given 1 feet = 12 inches]

[15]

Question 9.
Design a class to overload a function printSeries( ) as follows:
(a) void printSeries(int) to compute the series:

[15]

+ +

(b) void printSeries(String s) to print the String in the following format:


Example: If s = "TIGER"
Output:
R
RE
REG
REGI
REGIT

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Question 10.
A class HiArm has been defined to find whether a given number is an Armstrong number or not.
Some members of the class are given below:
Class name

HiArm

Data members/instance variables


n

:
:

integer data to store the number.

Member functions/methods
HiArm ( )
HiArm (int a)
int sumArm (int)
void isArm ( )

:
:
:
:
:

constructor to assign 0 to n
constructor to assign a to n
to find and return the sum of cube of digits of a number
to invoke sumArm ( ) and print whether the number is
Armstrong or not

Then write the main( ) method to input a number and call the above functions as required to check
whether it is an Armstrong number or not.
[Note: An Armstrong number is a number which is equal to the sum of the cube of its digits.
Example of an Armstrong Number is 153 = 13+53+33 = 153]
