Work Step by Step

# 7.1 (The Rectangle class) Following the example of the Circle class in Section # 7.2, design a class named Rectangle to represent a rectangle. The class # contains: # ■ Two data fields named width and height. # ■ A constructor that creates a rectangle with the specified width and height. # The default values are 1 and 2 for the width and height, respectively. # ■ A method named getArea() that returns the area of this rectangle. # ■ A method named getPerimeter() that returns the perimeter. # Draw the UML diagram for the class, and then implement the class. Write a test # program that creates two Rectangle objects—one with width 4 and height 40 # and the other with width 3.5 and height 35.7. Display the width, height, area, # and perimeter of each rectangle in this order. from CH7.Rectangle import Rectangle rect1 = Rectangle(4, 40) rect2 = Rectangle(3.5, 35.7) area1 = rect1.getArea() area2 = rect2.getArea() per1 = rect1.getPerimeter() per2 = rect2.getPerimeter() print("Rectangle1:\n\tWidth =", rect1.width, "\n\tHeight =", rect1.height, "\n\tArea =", area1, "\n\tPerimeter =", per1) print("Rectangle2:\n\tWidth =", rect2.width, "\n\tHeight =", rect2.height, "\n\tArea =", area2, "\n\tPerimeter =", per2)
