(Answer any four questions from this Section.)
The answers in this section should consist of the programs in either BlueJ environment or any program
environment with java as the base. Each program should be written using variable deseription / mnemonic
codes so that the logic of the program is clearly depicted.

 Question 3
Define a class Employee with the following :
Class name: Employee
Data Member:
String pan : to store personal account no
String name :to store name
double income: to store annual income
double tax :to store tax that is calculated

Member functions:
void input) : input data members except tax
void cal): calculate tax on annual income on the tax slab given below
void display0 : display the data members
Employee compare(Employee): compare tax between current object and parameterized object and
return the object whose tax is more.

Question 4 [15]
Create a class Potential with the following details:
Class Name:Potential
Data Member:
sent:to store asentence in uppercase

Parameterized constructor to initialize the data member.
int calculate(String w): Calculate and return the potentialof a word.
The encryption of letters is to be done as follows:
A=1
B=2
