The access to data and ability to manipulate data (frequently including real-time data) are key elements of business intelligence (bi) systems.

The “rule of 72” is used to approximate the time required for prices to double due to inflation. if the inflation rate is r%, then the rule of 72 estimates that prices will double in 72/r years. for instance, at an inflation rate of 6%, prices double in about 72/6 or 12 years. write a program to test the accuracy of this rule. for each interest rate from 1% to 20%, the program should display the rounded value of 72/r and the actual number of years required for prices to double at an r% inflation rate. (assume prices increase at the end of each year.)

Perform the following tasks: a. create a class named testclass that holds a single private integer field and a public constructor. the only statement in the constructor is one that displays the message “constructing”. write a main()function that instantiates one object of the testclass. save the file as testclass. cpp in the chapter 08 folder. run the program and observe the results. b. write another main()function that instantiates an array of 10 testclass objects. save the file as test class array. c . run this program and observe the results.
