I need help with design.

This material is somewhat more theoretical than that of previous topics, so instead of writing a program for this assignment, you are going to work on a design. Specifically, your task is to design a class to represent a credit card. Try to design your class such that it only includes fields and methods relative to a credit card itself, without branching out into related functionality, like that of a bank or a consumer. At the same time, try to make your class as complete as possible, so that it can be used in any application that involves a credit card. To complete this assignment, you will turn in a text document (Word or PDF) with the following information: • A list of the fields and methods of your class. For fields you will need to specify the type, the accessibility (private, public, etc), whether it is a static or instance field, and any limitations on the values (non-negative, always less than some other value, etc). For the methods, you will need to supply the return type and parameter type list. • A free-form description of what each field and method is meant to do, with explanation of any potentially confusing design decisions. • A justification for your design based on the guidelines given in section 10.11 of your textbook.

This is what the assignment says it needs a design for a credit card like name, password...same to what a regular credit card have just without consumer and bank stuff
