Rectangle Class

Problem

Design a class called Rectangle containing data members top, left, bottom, and right to represent its coordinates. Implement the following functions in the Rectangle class.

areaPeri( ): Calculates and sets the area and perimeter of Rectangle in the reference parameters passed to this method

topLeft( ): Returns the top-left point of the rectangle

bottomRight( ): Returns the bottom-right point of the rectangle

centerPoint( ): Returns the center point of the rectangle

deflateRect( ): Decreases the width and height of the rectangle equally from all sides using the x and y parameter passed to this function. After deflateRect( ), the center remains the same

inflateRect( ): Increases the width and height of the rectangle equally from all sides using the x and y parameter passed to this function. After inflateRect( ), the center remains same

equalRect( ): Determines whether a rectangle is equal to another

height( ): Calculates the height of the rectangle

width( ): Calculates the width of the rectangle

isRectEmpty( ): Checks if the rectangle is empty (width and/or height = 0)

isRectNull( ): Determines whether all data members are all equal to 0

ptInRect( ): Checks if a specified point lies within the rectangle

setRect( ): Sets the dimensions of the rectangle

setRectEmpty( ): Sets the rectangle to an empty rectangle (all coordinates 0)

size( ): Calculates the size of the rectangle

intersectRect( ): Sets the rectangle equal to intersection of two rectangles

unionRect( ): Sets the rectangle equal to union of two rectangles
