I need help fixing my code with the basic concepts listed above. To save from clutter, I took a screen shot of the directions here: https://imgur.com/SdiotUi
However, when I run my code it isn't working. I know there are a lot of errors but I'm having trouble fixing them even though I've spent the past few hours googling the correct way to do this.
When I create the first constructors I am not sure if I am assigning the name and legs correctly, I am having trouble returning "true", I get an error calling the parent class taking one argument, and I don't think I am overriding the abstract class correctly.
My code:
public class Animal1 {
private String animalName;
public int numberOfLegs;
public Animal1(String name){
name = animalName;
name = "John";
}
public Animal1(String name, int legs){
name = animalName;
legs = numberOfLegs;
name = "Jack";
legs = 4;
}
public String getName(){
return animalName;
}
public int getLegs(){
return numberOfLegs;
}
public void isAMammal(){
return true;
}
public void isCarnivorous(){
return true;
}
public abstract class getHello{
}
}
public class Cat1 extends Animal1{
public Cat1(String name){
Animal1.name;
}
public abstract class getHello{
return "Meow";
}
}
public class Dog1 extends Animal1{
public Dog1(String name){
Animal1.name;
}
public abstract class getHello{
return "Woof";
}
}
public abstract class Animal1 { // If you want to have an abstract method, declare the class as abstract
private final String animalName;
private final int numberOfLegs; // better of using private and make it final since it's not going to change.
public Animal1(final String name, final int legs){ //better making the input parameters final since they are not supposed to be changed
//name = animalName;
//legs = numberOfLegs;//it assigned the field to an input parameter. that will take no effect on the object created.
animalName = name;
numberOfLegs = legs;
}
public String getName(){
return animalName;
}
public int getLegs(){
return numberOfLegs;
}
public boolean isAnimal(){ //boolean function needs a return type too!!
return true;
}
public boolean isCarnivorous(){
return true;
}
public abstract String getHello(); // an abstract method has same requirement as a normal method besides the abstract modifier. it will need a return type. And it ends with a semicolon
}
public class Cat1 extends Animal1{
public Cat1(final String name){
super(name, 4); //use super to call parent constructor
}
@Override
public String getHello(){
return "Meow";
}
}
public class Dog1 extends Animal1{
public Dog1(final String name){
super(name, 4);
}
@Override
public String getHello(){
return "Woof";
}
}
