Exercise

The following is some code designed by J. Hacker for a video game. There is an Alien class to represent a monster and an AlienPack class that represents a band of aliens and how much damage they can inflict:

The code is not very object oriented and does not support information hiding in the Alien class. Rewrite the code so that inheritance is used to represent the different types of aliens instead of the “type” parameter. This should result in deletion of the “type” parameter. Also rewrite the Alien class to hide the instance variables and create a getDamage method for each derived class that returns the amount of damage the alien inflicts. Finally, rewrite the calculateDamage method to use getDamage and write a main method that tests the code.
