Construct a class named Circle that has a floating-point data member named radius. The class should have a zero-argument constructor that initializes this data member to 0. It should have member functions named calcCircumferencel) and calcArea() that calculate the circumference and area of a circle respectively, a member function setRadiusOto set the radius of the circle, a member function getRadius() to return the radius, and a member function showData() that displays the circle's radius, circumference, and area. The formula for the area of a circle is A-ar?. The formula for the circumference of a circle is C-2ar. Use your class in a program that creates an instance of a Circle (utilizing the zero-argument constructor), prompts a user for a radius, calls the şetRadius() function to set the circle's radius, and then calls showData() to display the circle's radius, circumference, and area. Your program should allow the user to enter circle dimensions until the user enters -1. Be sure to include appropriate error checking. Does it make sense to enter "abc" as the radius of a circle? No. Therefore, you should ensure that the user enters numeric data for the radius. Negative numbers (other than the -1 to exit) should also be prevented. showData() should not refer to the data members directly. Instead, it should call getRadius() to retrieve its value. Think of your getters and setters as middlemen. You should try to avoid accessing your data members directly due to maintenance issues. Pretend that you decided to change the name of your radius variable to be "rad". You really should only have to make that change in two functions: getRadius and setRadius. If you refer to the private data members directly throughout your code, you'll have a nightmare trying to make all the changes necessary. If you always use the getters to retrieve your data, any changes you make to the variable name will only necessitate changes to your get function rather than your whole code base. CalcCircumference. CalcArea, and ShowData should not have the radius passed in as an argument because radius is a data member of the class. Class functions have direct access to all data members in their own class. By passing in an argument for the value of the radius, you're not using the value that has already been stored in the data member. You're using the value that you've passed in to the functions, which circumvents the whole purpose of storing radius in the class. Be sure to avoid using global variables in your program unless they are constants. (Hint: a good constant to create in your program would be the value of pi.)
