Question

Hello! I need help with this problem! I noticed it's been answered before but I need a different version!

Create a class named Building with one public pure virtual function computerEnergyConsumption() that returns a double value of the instance variable which stores the energy consumed by the building. Create the two classes SolarBuilding and WindMill that both publicly inherit from Building. SolarBuilding has an instance variable that stores the energy generated by the solar panels. WindMill has an instance variable that stores the energy generated by the windmill. All member variables from classes must have getter and setter functions. Both classes should have the member variable(s) passed in and set in the constructor. Both classes must override the computerEnergyConsumption() function of the base class and use the instance variables in their computation. Use appropriate access modifiers in each class to enforce information hiding.

Answer 1

Below are the classes I have defined based on the requirements from your question. I did not understand what do in main, so I have just used main function to test the classes declared and all are working fine. I am including the classes here, define your main function for whatever use you need. Thank you!

CODE:

class Building
{
protected:
double energy_consumed;
public:
Building(){}
Building(double e) {
energy_consumed = e;
}
void set_energy_consumed(double e) {
energy_consumed = e;
}
double get_energy_consumed() {
return energy_consumed;
}
virtual double computerEnergyConsumption() {
return energy_consumed;
}
};

class SolarBuilding: public Building
{
private:
double solar_power;
public:
SolarBuilding(){}
SolarBuilding(double e) {
solar_power = e;
}
void set_solar_power(double e) {
solar_power = e;
}
double get_solar_power() {
return solar_power;
}
double computerEnergyConsumption() {
return solar_power;
}
};

class WindMill: public Building
{
private:
double wind_power;
public:
WindMill(){}
WindMill(double e) {
wind_power = e;
}
void set_wind_power(double e) {
wind_power = e;
}
double get_wind_power() {
return wind_power;
}
double computerEnergyConsumption() {
return wind_power;
}
};
