The Department of Computer Science, Thistle University has organized an ICT Festival recently.
The festival accepts contributions of ideas or ICT products from exhibitors and contestants. The
exhibitors may come from government or private sector. Meanwhile, contestants have two
categories of ages which are junior or senior.

Given the following superclass and subclasses:

public abstract class ICTFestivalParticipant

{
protected String participantName;
protected int participantID;
protected String email;

//normal constructor
//setter methods
//getter methods

public abstract double enrollCharge();

//toString method
}

public class Exhibitor extends ICTFestivalParticipant

{
private char sector; //G for government, P for private

//normal constructor
//setter methods
//getter methods
//toString method
}

public class Contestant extends ICTFestivalParticipant

{
private int level; //1 for junior, 2 for senior

//normal constructor
//setter methods
//getter methods
//toString method
}

The enrollment charge is based on the table below:
