Question

A. Define and implement the class Alarm as follows: The class Alarm consists of two private member variables: description of type string and atime of type Time. The class Alarm also includes the following public member functions:

1. print to print out the alarm’s description and hour, minute, and second of the alarm time.

2. setDescription to accept a string argument and use it to set the description member variable.

3. setAtime to accept three integers (for hour, minute, and second) to set the atime member variable (alarm time).

4. getDescription to return the value of the description member variable.

5. getAtime to return the atime member as a Time object.

6. A default constructor that initializes the description to the string “None” and the alarm time to 00:00:00.

7. An overloaded constructor that accepts a string argument for the alarm description and three int arguments (as the hour, minute, and second) and use them to initialize the description and atime member variables of an Alarm object.

8. An overloaded constructor that accepts a string argument for the alarm description and a Time object and use them to initialize the description and atime member variables of an Alarm object.

9. An equals function to compare two Alarm objects’ values. Return true if both objects have the same values of the member variables. Otherwise, return false. B. In the function main, write statements to declare Alarm class objects and test your class implementation.

Your project is expected to contain five source files: Time.h, Time.cpp, Alarm.h, Alarm.cpp, Lab8.cpp.

Answer 1

Following c++ application demonstrates the use Time , Alarm classes.

Time class has hrs, min, sec.
Alarm class has alarm description, hrs, min, sec.

Instantiates alarm objects with different inputs.
Checks two alarm objects , whether they are equal or not.
