SECTION B (60 Marks)
Attempt any four questions from this Section.
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 so that the
logic of the program is clearly depicted.
Flow-Charts and Algorithms are not required.
Question 4 [15]
Define a class Courier having the following description:-
Data Members/Instance Variables:
int weight - stores the weight of parcel
String type - stores the type of mail (Ordinary/Express)
double charges - stores the amount to be paid
Member methods:-
(i) Courier ( ) - default constructor to initialize default values to data members.
3
(ii) void accept ( ) - Accept data for weight and type using Scanner class.
(iii) void compute ( ) – calculate the charges as per the given criteria.

Weight of parcel Charges on Ordinary mail Charges on Express mail

(in gms)
Up to 100 gms `50 [fixed] `80 [fixed]

101 to 500 gms `40 per 100 gms `70 per 100 gms

501 and above `35 per 100 gms `65 per 100 gms

(iv) void display ( ) – display the weight, type and charges in different lines.
Write a main ( ) method to create an object and call the above member methods.
Question 5 [15]
Write a program to input 45 students’ Mathematics marks in an integer array and arrange the
marks from highest to least using Bubble Sort technique. Display the sorted array.
Question 6 [15]
Design a class to overload the function calculate ( ) as follows:-
(a) public void calculate (int x, int y, int z) – which accepts three integer arguments (x, y and
z). Check whether the product of x, y and z is EVEN or ODD.
(b) public void calculate (int x, char ch) – which accepts one integer argument x and one
character argument ch. Find and display the square root value of x if ch is 's' otherwise find
and display the cube root value of x.
(c) public int calculate (int x) – which accepts one integer argument x. It returns the first two
digits of x, if x is a 4-digit number, otherwise it returns only the last digit of x.
Write a main ( ) method to create an object and call the above member functions.
Question 7 [15]
Write a program to input a number and display each digit in WORDS.
Examples:
(1) Input: 126
Output: SIX TWO ONE
(2) Input: 340
Output: ZERO FOUR THREE
4
Question 8 [15]
Using switch statement, write a menu driven program to
1. SumSeries
2. Pattern
1 1 1 1
For (1) find and display the sum of the series: 𝑆𝑢𝑚 = − + − … … … … . . n terms.
1 3 5 7
Where n is to be input by the user.

For (2) display the following pattern

$ ? $ ? $
$ ? $ ?
$ ? $
$ ?
$
Display appropriate error message for an incorrect choice.

Question 9 [15]
