Question
1. Part A Create a class called Pet. There should be 4 instance variables, the name (a String), the animal (a String: dog, cat, parrot,... ), the number of legs (an int), and the gender (an int: 1 for male, 2 for female).Write a set method for each instance variable.
Write a method showInfo that prints all four instance variables, labeled, to make sure they are being properly set.
Write a test application, called PetTest. It should create a Pet, have the Pet call all four get methods, then call the showInfo method to make sure all is working.
A sample output at this point might be:
name: Toto
animal: dog
number of legs: 4
gender: 1
Part B
Once part A is working, proceed.
In Pet, write get methods for each instance variable.
Modify PetTest to call each of the get methods and print the results. You can either assign the return value to a variable in PetTest and print that variable as in this example:
We would like to improve showInfo to print the actual gender. Add some if statements to showInfo (in Pet) to print "male" instead of 1 and "female" instead of 2. So the output for showInfo might now be
name: Toto
animal: dog
number of legs: 4
gender: male
Part D - final version.
Modify PetTest to call the various set and get functions and showInfo to produce the following output.
This is about a male dog named Toto.
Toto has 4 legs.
Summary
name: Toto
animal: dog
number of legs: 4
gender: male
After using the values "Toto", "dog", 4, 1 in set functions, the rest of PetTest should never again use these literals directly. Instead they should come from get methods and showInfo.
