Question 2: [12 marks: 2+2+2+2+4]
Given the following code, answer the given questions:
public abstract class Employee { public class Test {
public void welcome() { public static void main(String[] a) {
System.out.println("AOU"); Employee e = new Tutor();
} Tutor t = new Tutor();
public void salary() { // valid or not?
System.out.println(5000); //1// e.teaching();
} //2// Employee f = new Employee();
} e.welcome();
public class Tutor extends Employee { t.welcome();
public void salary() { e.salary();
System.out.println(8000); t.salary();

Question 3: [13 marks]
Assume that you have a map called section which includes students’ names and their marks in the final
exam. It is required to complete the following method to add 1 mark for each student; For example, if a
student got 83.5 in the final exam, then after calling the method his/her mark will be updated to 84.5, noting
that no student could get more than 100 (i.e. all students whose mark > 99 will not get more than 100).
public static …………… addOneMark(………………………………… section) {
…………………………………
…………………………………
}
Question 4: [10 marks]
Write a recursive method that takes as an argument a word and returns the reverse of this word; For
example, if the word is "EXAM", the method should return "MAXE".
PART 3: Problem Solving Questions [55 Marks]
Question 5: [42 marks]
1. Write the class Member which includes: [15 marks: 2+3+2+2+4+2]
a) 3 attributes: member id (e.g. 935), member name and member age.
b) a zero-arg constructor and a multi-arg constructor.
c) getters for member name and member age attributes.
d) toString() method which overrides the Object's toString() method.
e) equals() method which overrides the Object's equals() method. It is enough to compare the member
id.
f) compareTo() method which implements the Comparable’s compareTo() method. You should use the
member id only in the comparison.
2. Write the class Club which includes: (add the necessary import statements) [22 marks: 1+2+4+8+7]
a) 2 attributes: Club name and Set of Members.
b) one-arg constructor that accepts the Club name as an argument and creates a new empty Set of
Members (the set should be sorted automatically according to the member id).
c) method addMember() that accepts a Member object as an argument and adds it to the Set with a
confirmation message. If the Member is already in the Set, an error message should be displayed.
d) method oldestMember() that takes no arguments and returns the name of the oldest member in the
Club (whose age is the maximum).
e) method saveIntoFile() which accepts a file name as an argument. It stores the Club name and
information of all members of the club in this file (each Member in a different line).
3. Write a code to test your classes by performing the following tasks: [5 marks: 1+2+1+1]
a) create a Club object called myClub where the Club name is "Math Club".
b) create 2 Members and add them to myClub using the method addMember()
c) print the name of the oldest member in the Club by calling the method oldestMember()
d) call the method saveIntoFile() to save the required information.

Question 6: [13 marks: 6 + 7]
Based on the classes of Part 3 - Question 5,
Consider the following code which displays the given GUI application and then answer the questions below
it:
public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
//Missing Code (1): Initialization
Club myClub = …………………
Label memberIdL = …………………
Label memberNameL = …………………
Label memberAgeL = …………………
TextField memberIdTF = …………………
TextField memberNameTF = …………………
TextField memberAgeTF = …………………
Button addB = …………………
GridPane pane = …………………
primaryStage.setTitle(…………………);
pane.addColumn(0, memberIdL, …………………, …………………, …………………);
pane.addColumn(1, memberIdTF, …………………, …………………);
Scene scene = new Scene(pane);
primaryStage.setScene(scene);
primaryStage.show();
//Missing Code (2): Clicking on the button
…………………
…………………
…………………
}
1. Complete the first missing code to initialize the UI controls.
2. Complete the second missing code such that when the user fills in the required data and clicks the
button "Add Member", a Member object will be created (using this data) and added to myClub.
