Question ( 6 )

Consider the following scenario.

You are asked to design a “Cylinder” class using JAVA or C#.Net to keep
records on cylinders manufactured by a company. The company needs to
store the cylindercolour, radius and height for each cylinder. Design the
cylinder class with following properties.

i. Encapsulated instance variables: colour, radius and height (3 marks)

Page7 | 8
ii. Constructor of the class to initialize encapsulated variables with passing
arguments from calling program. (4 marks)
iii. Public getColour method to return the colour of the cylinder. (3 marks)
iv. Public displayVolume method to calculate the volume of the cylinder and
print it. (Volume of aCylinder = (22 / 7)*radius*height) (5 marks)
v. Write the code segment to create an instance of the cylinder class passing
following values for the instance variables. (5 marks)
