Program to define a class Tender containing data members cost and company name. Accept data for five objects and display company name for which cost is minimum
This program demonstrates you the array of objects. Array of object is the collection of objects of the same class.The given syntax will define an array of reference therefore assign object to individual reference in the array to declare the array of object. The syntax to define array of object is:
<class-name> <array-name> [size];
For example, the following statement will define an array of object having size 6 references to the class Box.
Box b[6];
The above statement just declare array of objects. For creating an array of objects (allocating memory) you have to write down the following statements
for (int i=0; i<6; i++) {
b[i] = new Box( );
// Assigning object to individual reference in the array.
}
You can access the members of particular object by using membership operator like:
PROGRAM
b[i].length = 10;
b[i].width = 20;
b[i].height = 30;
PROGRAM
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
public class Tender {
String name; // Data members declaration
int cost;
Tender() // Default constructor
{
name = null;
cost = 0;
}
Tender(String s, int a) // Parametrized constructor
{
name = s;
cost = a;
}
void disp() {
System.out.println("Company name="+name+" cost="+cost);
}
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException
{
Tender T[] = new Tender[5]; // Creating array of objects
BufferedReader b = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String s;
int c, temp = 0, min=0;
for(int i=0; i< 5;i++)
{
System.out.println("Enter company name :: "); // accept Company name
s = b.readLine();
System.out.println("Enter the cost :: "); // accept the cost
c = Integer.parseInt(b.readLine()); // Converting string to int
T[i] = new Tender(s, c); // assign values to data members by constructor
}
for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
{
if(T[i].cost < min)
{
min = T[i].cost; // store minimum value of cost
temp = i; // store index value of object having minimum cost
}
}
System.out.println("Company having minimum cost=");
T[temp].disp();
}
}
OUTPUT
