Write a program to demonstrate writing an object to a data file and reading it back.

 Here is a program that demonstrates writing an object to a data file and reading it back:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
class Student {
    private:
        string name;
        int roll;
    public:
        void setName(string n) {
            name = n;
        }
        void setRoll(int r) {
            roll = r;
        }
        void display() {
            cout << "Name: " << name << endl;
            cout << "Roll: " << roll << endl;
        }
};
int main() {
    Student s1;
    s1.setName("John");
    s1.setRoll(101);

    // Writing object to data file
    ofstream outFile("student.dat", ios::binary);
    outFile.write(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&s1), sizeof(Student));
    outFile.close();

    // Reading object from data file
    ifstream inFile("student.dat", ios::binary);
    Student s2;
    inFile.read(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&s2), sizeof(Student));
    s2.display();
    inFile.close();
    return 0;
}

In this program, we have defined a Student class with two data members name and roll. We have also defined setter functions setName() and setRoll() to set the values of these data members, and a display() function to display the values.

In the main() function, we create an object s1 of the Student class and set its name and roll using the setter functions.

We then create an output file stream object outFile and open a binary file named "student.dat". We use the write() function to write the object s1 to the file. We need to cast the address of the object to a char* type using reinterpret_cast.

Next, we create an input file stream object inFile and open the same binary file. We create an object s2 of the Student class to read the object from the file. We use the read() function to read the object from the file. Again, we need to cast the address of the object to a char* type using reinterpret_cast.

Finally, we call the display() function of the s2 object to display the values read from the file.

Output:

Name: John
Roll: 101

Write a program using the algorithm count() to count how many elements in a container have a specified value.

 Here's an example program using the count() algorithm to count the number of occurrences of a specific value in a vector container: #include <iostream> #include <vector> #include <algorithm> using namespace std; int main() {     vector<int> numbers = { 2, 5, 3, 7, 8, 5, 1, 5, 4 };          // count the number of occurrences of the value 5 in the vector     int count = count(numbers.begin(), numbers.end(), 5);          cout << "The number of occurrences of 5 in the vector is: " << count << endl;          return 0; } Output: The number of occurrences of 5 in the vector is: 3 Explanation: The program starts by creating a vector named numbers that contains several integer values. The count() algorithm is used to count the number of occurrences of the value 5 in the numbers vector. The function takes three arguments: the beginning and end iterators of...

Define polymorphism. Differentiate between overloading and overriding method with example.

 Polymorphism is a concept in object-oriented programming that allows objects of different classes to be treated as if they were objects of the same class. It allows a single method or operation to have different meanings or behaviors based on the context in which it is used. In Java, there are two types of polymorphism: Compile-time Polymorphism: This is achieved through method overloading, where two or more methods in a class have the same name but different parameters. Runtime Polymorphism: This is achieved through method overriding, where a subclass provides its own implementation of a method that is already defined in its parent class. Here is an example of method overloading: class MyClass {    public int sum(int a, int b) {       return a + b;    }    public double sum(double a, double b) {       return a + b;    } } public class Main {    public static void main(String[] args) {     ...
