Question

*Python*

INTRODUCTION:

The goal of this programming assignment is to enable the student to practice object-oriented programming using classes to create objects.

PROBLEM DEFINITION:

Write a class named Employee that holds the following data about an employee in attributes: name, IDnumber, department, jobTitle

The class should have 8 methods as follows:

 For each attribute, there should be a method that takes a parameter to be assigned to the attribute. This is known as a mutator method.

 For each attribute, there should be a method that returns the attribute. This is known as an accessor or getter method.

Once you have written the class, define a main function that first defines an empty list. Example: personnelList = [ ]

Next, in the main function should be a loop that repeats at least three times. In the loop, define an object using the Employee class. After defining the object, still in the loop, do the following:

a. Display a message asking user to enter employee name, ID, department, and title

b. Read employee_name into a variable

c. Call the mutator method for the name attribute of the object passing the employee_name

d. Read employee_ID into a variable

e. Call the mutator method for the IDnumber attribute of the object passing employee_ID

f. Read employee_department into a variable

g. Call the mutator method for the department attribute of the object passing the employee_department

h. Read employee_title into a variable

i. Call the mutator method for the jobTitle attribute of the object passing the employee_title

j. Append the object to the list

Next, still in the main function, display three heading lines. After the print() statements that displays the heading lines, still in the main function, write another loop. This second loop should go through the list one element per loop iteration (pass). In this second loop, write statements that call the accessor methods of the list element and display the values returned by the accessor methods. After and outside the main function, write a statement to call the main() function.

Answer 1

class Employee:
        def getName(self):
                return self.name
        def getIDnumber(self):
                return self.IDnumber
        def getDepartment(self):
                return self.department
        def getJobTitle(self):
                return self.jobTitle

        def setName(self, name):
                self.name = name
        def setIDnumber(self, IDnumber):
                self.IDnumber = IDnumber
        def setDepartment(self, department):
                self.department = department
        def setJobTitle(self, jobTitle):
                self.jobTitle = jobTitle

def main():
        personnelList = [ ]

        for _ in range(3):
                e = Employee()
                employee_name = input('Enter employee name: ')
                e.setName(employee_name)
                employee_ID = input('Enter employee id: ')
                e.setIDnumber(employee_ID)
                employee_department = input('Enter employee department: ')
                e.setDepartment(employee_department)
                employee_title = input('Enter employee job title: ')
                e.setJobTitle(employee_title)
                
                personnelList.append(e)


        print('%10s%10s%10s%10s' % ('Name', 'IDnumber', 'Department', 'JobTitle'))
        for p in personnelList:
                print('%10s%10s%10s%10s' % (p.getName(), p.getIDnumber(), p.getDepartment(), p.getJobTitle()))

main()


Please upvote, as i have given the exact answer as asked in question. Still in case of any issues in code, let me know in comments. Thanks!
