Question

I need help figuring out how to get rid of these erros, I've posted my parent class along with the three child classes, and highlighted the error spots as well as inserted all the corresponding errors that go with them at the very bottom of this question. I know that some of them are the same error, but figured that just highlighting them all would be easiest. Any help would be greatly apprecitaed.

public abstract class Employee implements Comparable
{
private int ID;
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
private String title;
private Float totalPay;
private char type;

public Employee(int ID, String firstName, String lastName, String title, char type)
{
this.ID = ID;
this.firstName = firstName;
this.lastName = lastName;
this.title = title;
this.type = type;
}
public abstract void calculatePay();
public abstract void print();

public int getID()
{
return ID;
}

public String getFirstName()
{
return firstName;
}

public String getLastName()
{
return lastName;
}

public String getTitle()
{
return title;
}

public char getType()
{
return type;
}
public Float getTotalPay()
{
return totalPay;
}

public Float setTotalPay()
{
totalPay = 0;   //1
}
}

Explanation / Answer

error 1: type mismatch.
--> change: totalPay = 0; TO: totalPay = 0.0; or simply cast to float totalPay = (float)0;

error 2: add the float parameter to your Employee class
public Employee(int ID, String firstName, String lastName, String title, char type, float myFloat)

error 3: you are missing your return statement:

return myFloat;

error 4: you have it set to a private variable. change it to public

error 5: your getTotalPay() method does not take a parameter! if you want it to take a parameter of float change it to: public float getTotalPay(float pay){ return totalPay;

error 6: again you do not have an int declared in your Employee class

error 7: again you forgot your return statement. public float setHoursWorked() { hoursWorked = (float)0; return hoursWorked;

error 8: this error is the same as error 4.

error 9: add some print statements before and after you do your arithmatic. that way you can see if totalPay is populated or not and exactly what it has in it :)

error 10: again repeat of 4 and 8

error 11:

error 12: forgot your return statement :) return salary;

error 13: repeat of 4 and 8.

I dont have your main method so I cant really test it out. if you provide it I can help further. :) I didnt actually put your code into my IDE to run it :)
