String name;

public Animal(String n){

name = n;
 System.out.println("Animal class");
}
abstract void eat();
}
class Cat extends Animal{
public Cat(String n){
super(n);
System.out.println("Cat class");
}
void eat(){
System.out.println("Cat " + name + " loves sardines");

}
public class TestAnimal{
public static void main(String[] args){
Animal an;
Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
int anw= 1;
String name=null, type=null;
while ( anw > 0 ) {
System.out.println("Enter 'cat' or 'dog'");
type = scan.next();
System.out.println("Enter name");
name = scan.next();

if ( type.equals("cat"))
an = new Cat( name );
else
an = new Dog( name);

2. The following two classes contain 10 syntax errors, please find and correct them.
/**Selection sort in descending order*/
public class SelectionSort {
/** The method for sorting the numbers */
 static selectionSort(int[] list {
for (int i = list.length - 1; i >= 1; i--) {
// Find the maximum in the list[0..i]
int currentMin = list[0]
int currentMinIndex = 0;

for (int j = 1, j <= i; j++) {

if (currentMin > list) {
currentMin = list[j];
currentMinIndex = j;
}
}
// Swap list[i] with list[currentMaxIndex] if necessary;
if (currentMinIndex != i) {
list[currentMinIndex] = list[i];
list[i] = currentMin;
}
}
}
/** The method for printing numbers */
static void printList(int list) {
for (int i = 0; i < list.length; i++)
System.out.print(list[i] + " ");
System.out.println();
}
/** Main method */
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Initialize the list
int myList = {5, 13, 76, 2, 21};
// Print the original list
System.println("My list before sort is: ");

Program questions (5 + 5 = 10 marks)

1. Write a code for a class WaterTank with attributes fullness and capacity both in litres as double.
Write two constructors (default one and constructor with two parameters)
Write set/get methods for both attributes.
Write custom methods fillTank and drainTank with amount of water in litres as a parameter.
Return type for fillTank is boolean and it returns false if (amount +fullness) is greater than capacity,
otherwise it adds amount to fullness and returns true.
Return type for drainTank is also boolean and returns false if (fullness-amount) is less than zero,
otherwise it reduces fullness by amount and returns true.

2. Write a program which will display a window with a two text fields to enter first name and last name,
two labels (as prompt for text fields), and a button “Register”. Your class must extend JFrame. Add
action listener to the button. When the button is clicked the text entered in text fields is displayed on a
third label, for example “Welcome John Ward!!!”.
