Question

Write a class encapsulating the concept of the weather forecast, assuming that it has the following attributes: the temperature and the sky conditions, which could be sunny, snowy, cloudy, or rainy. Include a default constructor, an overloaded constructor, the accessors and mutators, and methods, toString() and equals(). Temperature, in Fahrenheit, should be between -50 and +150; the default value is 70, if needed. The default sky condition is sunny. Include a method that converts Fahrenheit to Celsius. Celsius temperature = (Fahrenheit temperature 32) * 5/9. Also include a method that checks whether the weather attributes are consistent (there are two cases where they are not consistent: when the temperature is below 32 and it is not snowy, and when the temperature is above 100 and it is not sunny). Write a client class to test all the methods in your class

Explanation / Answer

/* OUTPUT
Sky Condition is sunny and temperature is 70.0
Sky Condition is cloudy and temperature is 35.0
is T1 equal to T2 ? Not Equal
Celsius equivalent of 70.0 is 21.11111111111111
is T1 is consistent Consistent
