Question

Create a class named Employee. Includes data members for Employee class :
Data member     = Data type
Employee id     = String
Employee name     = String
Icno     = String
Gender     = Char
Date of birth     = String
Address     = String
Commencing Date     = String
Department     = String
Position     = String
Salary     = Double
Include any relevant methods for example constructor that can perform initialization for all data fields, accessor methods that return each of data field values and mutator method to set values into the data fields. Use a constructor to set each Employee id to 99999 upon object creation.
Write another java application named EmployeeDb. Declare an array of three Employee objects.
Your program should be able to perform the following functions:
(a)     Prompt user to enter three Employees� information from the console and store data in an array
(b)     Search an employee by name.
(c)     Display all employee information by using a loop.
You are NOT required to save records into any text file.

Answer 1

42.
On more consideration, maybe I'll expand that.
When you post code; wrap it in tags to make it readable. Or highlight the code when you're posting and click that little button labeled CODE.
We generally don't answer exam questions here, either.
And please; make your post titles more legible than the rubbish you've given.
