Assignment #1

Instructor: Dr. Pawan Lingras

Due Date: September 23,1999 (11:30 p.m.)

Create a class called Polar that has two data members called r and theta.

• Write a constructor, which accepts the values of r, and theta, use default values of zero. Overload input, output, assignment, comparison (== and !=). Note that the value of theta should be reduced based on the knowledge that
  theta == 2*pi + theta in the implementation of these operations.
• Write a member function called reduce() that reduces the value of theta to its smallest possible value
  • The member function also throws an exception (Note: it is not an error) called NotReducible if the value of theta cannot be reduced.

Write a test program to test all of the features of Polar.
