In Java, design and implement a class called Cat. Each Cat class will contain three private variables - an integer representing its speed, a double representing its meowing loudness, and a String representing its name. Using the Random class, the constructor should set the speed to a random integer from 0 to 9, the meowing loudness to a random double, and the name to anything you want; the constructor should take no parameters. Write “get” and “set” methods for each variable, and one that prints all the variables. Finally, write a main method to test the methods in the class. The three variables must be private.

Then design and implement a class called CatOwner. Each CatOwner will have three private variables: a String representing the owner name, an integer representing how much cat food is left, and a cat; each cat should be an instance of the Cat class. The constructor can name the CatOwner anything you want, and the supply of food should be a random number greater than or equal to 10 and less than 50. Each cat’s name should be set to “Tinkles.” The constructor for CatOwner should take no parameters. Write “get” and “set” methods for the owner’s name, the food supply, and all the properties of the cat; also write a feedCat method that decreases the food supply by 1 and prints that the cat was fed. Next, write a method to print all class variables. Finally, write a main method to test your methods.

Design a driver class which instantiates two CatOwner objects. Next, perform the following five steps:

1. Change the name of the first cat owner to “John Doe” and his dog’s name to “Whiskers.” Change the name of the second cat owner to “George Washington.”
2. Increase the meowing loudness of the first cat owner’s cat by .1, and set the speed of the second cat owner’s cat to 5.
3. Double the food supply of the first cat owner, and set the food supply of the second to 25.
4. Have the first cat owner feed his cat three times, and have the second cat owner feed his cat twice.
5. Print out all the information for both cat owners.

*I JUST WANT A GENERAL WALKTHROUGH OF HOW TO DO THIS. PSEUDOCODE IS FINE. THANK-YOU. THIS IS IN C THE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE.*

The program will require the following structure:

struct _data {                                 

   char *name;

   long number;

};

The program will require command line arguments:

int main(int argv, char **argc) {

       

Where argv is the number of arguments and argc is an array

holding the arguments (each is a string). Your program must catch

any case where no command line arguement was provided and print

a warning message (see below).

You MUST include/use the following functions, defined as follows:

int SCAN(FILE *(*stream)) - this function will open the file/stream

and return an integer indicating how many lines there are. Note that

I need to pass stream, which is a pointer, by reference. So I am

passing this as a pointer to a pointer.

struct _data *LOAD(FILE *stream, int size) - this function will

rewind file, create the dynamic array (of size), and read in the

data, populating the _data struct dynamic array. Note that stream

is passed by value this time. The function then returns the populated

array of struct.

void SEARCH(struct _data *BlackBox, char *name, int size) - this function

will get the dynamic array of struct passed to it, the name we are looking

for, and the size of the array. This function will then search the dynamic

array for the name. See below for examples.

void FREE(struct _data *BlackBox, int size) - this function will free up

all of the dynamic memory we allocated. Take note of the number of times

malloc/calloc were called, as you need to free that same number.

Finally, the data file will be called hw5.data and will be formatted as:

ron 7774013

jon 7774014

tom 7774015

won 7774016

HINTS:

------

Functions that will make things much easier:

getline()

feof()

strtok()

atoi()

SAMPLE RUNS:

------------

Case 1 - No command line argument provided.

[yourname@chef junk]$ ./CS230-5

*******************************************

* You must include a name to search for. *

*******************************************

Case 2 - Provided name is NOT in the list.

[yourname@chef junk]$ ./CS230-5 joe

*******************************************

The name was NOT found.

*******************************************

Case 3 - Provided name is in the list.

*******************************************

The name was found at the 2 entry.

Suppose a dairy farmer obtained a $100,000 loan to buy creamery equipment on June 1, 2016. There was no down payment, and the loan is payable over 5 years in equal payments of $20,000 due on June 1st each year (first payment June 1, 2017), with the remaining balance due at the end of the loan term. The annual interest rate is 5%.

Businesses often need to compute the amount of accrued interest payable as of the date of a financial statement, such as a balance sheet. Approximately how much accrued interest would this loan contribute to the dairy farmer’s year-end balance sheet for 2016?

The company is prohibited from purchasing, dealing in or lending money on its own shares

Corporate Law

The company is prohibited from purchasing, dealing in or lending money on its own shares. Therefore, a company is prohibited from buying back its shares, which tantamount to giving priority to the member who is selling his shares, over the company's creditors and other members. This transaction will also result in the reduction of the company's capital.

Based on the statement above critically discuss exceptions to the prohibition of share buy-back as provided under the Companies Act 2016. Support your answer with relevant statutory provisions of the Companies Act 2016 and decided cases.

Thanks advanced.
