Question: 5 [15]
Given below is a hypothetical table showing rates of Income Tax for male citizens below the age of 65 years:

WAP to input the age, gender (male or female) and Taxable Income of a person. If the age is more than 65 years or the gender is female, display “wrong category”. If the age is less than or equal to 65 years and the gender is male, compute and display the Income Tax payable as per the table given above.

Question: 6
Define a class employee having the following description:

Data Members/Instance variables:
int pan – to store personal account number
String name – to store name
Double incometax – to store annual taxable income
double tax – to store tax that is calculated

Member Functions/Methods:
input() – Store the pan number, name, taxableincome
calc() – Calculate tax for an employee
display() – Output details of an employee

Write a program to compute the tax according to the conditions and display the output as per given format.

Question: 8 [15]
Design a class to overload a function Joystring () as follows:
(i) void Joystring(String s, char ch1, char ch2) with one string argument and two character arguments that replaces the character argument ch1 with the character argument ch2 in the given String s and prints the new string.

Example:
Input value of s = “TECHNALAGY”
ch1 = „A‟
ch2 = „O‟
Output: ” TECHNOLOGY

(ii) void Joystring(String s) with one string argument that prints the position of the first space and the last space of the given String s.

Example:
Input Value of s1 = “COMMON WEALTH”
Input value of s2 = “GAMES”
Output: COMMON WEALTH GAMES
(Use Library Functions)

Question: 9 [15]
Write a program to input a sentence and print the number of characters found in the smallest word of the given sentence.
For Example: if S = “Spicer is one of the best school in Pune” then the output should be 2.

Question: 10 [15]
A special two-digit number is such that when the sum of its digits is added to the product of its digits, the result is equal to the original two-digit number.

Example: Consider the number 59.
Sum of digits = 5 + 9 = 14
Product of its digits = 5 x 9 = 45
Sum of the sum of digits and product of digits= 14 + 45 = 59

Write a program to accept a two-digit number. Add the sum of its digits to the product of its digits. If the value is equal to the number input, output the message “Special 2-digit number” otherwise, output the message “Not a Special 2-digit number”.
