Question

Write the definition of a class Counter containing: An instance variable named counter of type int . An instance variable named limit of type int . A static int variable named nCounters which is initialized to 0 . A constructor taking two int parameters that assigns the first one to counter and the second one to limit . It also adds one to the static variable nCounters . A method named increment . It does not take parameters or return a value; if the instance variable counter is less than limit , increment just adds one to the instance variable counter . A method named decrement that also doesn't take parameters or return a value; if counter is greater than zero, it just subtracts one from the counter . A method named getValue that returns the value of the instance variable counter . A static method named getNCounters that returns the value of the static variable nCounters . Here is where my fun begin I am pretty darn sure this is correct my compiler is stating other wise. public class Counter{ int counter,limit;static int nCounters = 0; Counter(int a,int b){ counter=a; limit=b; nCounters++; } void increment(){ if(counter0) counter--; } private int getValue(){ return counter; } private static int getNCounters(){ return nCounters; } }

Explanation / Answer

please rate - thanks

you were close

you're missing a > sign in crement, missing a decrement, and increment is incorrect

this compiles (The chegg editor has been destroying some characters, so message me using a comment, before rating if it gets an error


public class Counter

{ int counter,limit;

static int nCounters = 0;

Counter(int a,int b)

{ counter=a; limit=b;

nCounters++;

}

void increment()

{ if(counter<limit)

counter++;

}

void decrement()

{ if(counter>0)

counter--;

}

private int getValue()

{ return counter;

}

private static int getNCounters()

{ return nCounters;

}

}
