SECTION B

Answer any two questions

Each program should be written in such a way that it clearly depicts the logic of the program.

This can be achieved by using mnemonic names and comments in the program.

( Flowcharts and Algorithms are not required)

The program must be written in Java

8. The trigonometric function sec(x) can be computed as 10

sec(x) = 1/cos(x) x is in radians and (0<=x<=π/2)

The trigonometric function cos(x) can be computed by the following infinite series

cos(x) = 1 – x^2/2! + x^4/4! –x^6/6! …. x is in radians and (0<=x<= π/2)

A class called MyMath has been defined to calculate the trigonometric functions. Some of the functions/methods in MyMath are shown below:

Class name :MyMath

Data members/instance variables : x angle in a radian

Member functions/methods:

MyMath(double nx) :constructor to assign x=nx

double abs(double y) :calculates and returns absolute value of y

y=y when y>=0

y=-y when y<0

double cos() : calculates and returns value of cos() correct to 7 places after the decimal using infinite series given above when x is within the range otherwise it returns an error value 99999999.9

double sec() : calculates and returns value of sec() by using the value of cos()

(remember when x is in radian and 0<=x<= π/2 then 1>=cos()>=0)

Specify the class MyMath giving details of the constructor MyMath(double nx), double abs(double y), double cos(), double sec() only. You do not need to write the main() function.

9. A class called Number has been defined to find the frequency of each digit present in it and the sum of the digits and to display the results. Some of the members of the class Number are given below: 10

Class Name : Number

Data members : num – long integer type

Member functions/methods :

Number() :constructor to assign 0 to num

Number(int n) : constructor to assign n to num

void digitFrequency() :to find the frequency of each digit and display it

int sumDigit() : to find the sum of the digits of the number

Specify the class Number giving the details of the two constructors and functions void digitFrequency() and int sumDigit(). You do not need to write the main() function.

10. Design a class StringFun to perform various operations on strings without using built-in functions except for finding the length of the string. Some of the member functions/methods of the class are given below: 10

Class Name :StringFun

Data members :str[] to store a string

Member functions :

void input() : to accept the string

void words() : to find and display number of words, number of vowels and number of uppercase characters in the string.

void frequency() : to find the frequency of each characters in the string

Specify the class StringFun giving the details of the functions void input(), void words() and int frequency(). You do not need to write the main() function.

SECTION C

Answer any two questions

Each program/algorithm should be written in such a way that it clearly depicts the logic of the program step wise.

This can be achieved by using pseudo codes.

( Flowcharts are not required)

The program must be written in Java

The algorithm must be written in general/standard form.

11. (a) A linked list is formed from the objects of the class, 4

Class node

{ int info;

Node link;

}

Write an algorithm/method for deleting a node from any position of a linked list.

The method declaration is given below

void deletenode(node start)

(b) Distinguish between worst case and best case of an algorithm. 2

(i) Write the post order traversal of the tree. 1

(ii) Name the leaves of the tree. 1

(iii) Height of the tree. 1

(iv) Root of the tree. 1

12. A class called Number contains the following data members and member functions to check for triangular numbers. [A triangular number is formed by the addition of a consecutive sequence of integers starting from 1] 10

For ex. 1+2=3

1+2+3=6

1+2+3+4=10

1+2+3+4+5=15

Therefore 3, 6, 10, 15, etc. are triangular numbers.

Class Name : Number

Data members/ instance variables : n is an integer to be checked for whether it is triangular or not.

Member functions/methods :

void getnum() : to accept an integer

int check(int) : to check whether n is triangular

void dispnum() : to display whether the number is triangular or not

Specify the class Number giving the details of the functions void getnum(), int check(int) and void dispnum(). You do not need to write the main() function.

13. Design a class Change to perform string related operations. The details of the class are given below:

Class Name : Change

Data members/instance variables :

str : stores the word

newstr : stores the changed word

len : stores the length of the word

Member Functions:

Change() : default constructor

void inputword() : to accept a word

char caseconvert(char ch) : converts the case of the character and returns it

void recchange(int) : extracts characters using Recursive Technique and changes its case using caseconvert() and forms a new word

(a) Specify the class Change, giving details of the constructor, member functions void inputword(), char caseconvert(char ch), void recchange(int) and void display. Define the main() function to create an object and call the function accordingly to enable the above change in the given word. 8
