Question

JAVA home work write the code follow the steps below. 2Questions thank you so much!

(1)Write the class header and the instance data variables for the Cat class.

A cat is described by name, age, and whether or not the cat is an indoor-only cat.

Write a constructor for the Cat class that initializes a cat object by specifying all information.

Write accessor and mutator (getter and setter) methods. Include validity checking where appropriate.

Write a toString method to return a text representation of the cat that includes the name, age, and indoor status.

(2)Write code that would go inside a driver program with a main method.

Create an array to hold 6 Pet objects

Fill the array with some cats and some dogs.

Iterate the array and print a text representation of each pet.

Iterate the array and output the name of each outdoor cat.

Use polymorphism to do this!

Sort the array by invoking a Java-provided sorting method.

Explanation / Answer

Cat.java

public class Cat implements Comparable<Cat> {
   private String name;
   private int age;
   private boolean indoorStatus;

   public Cat(String name, int age, boolean indoorStatus) {
       this.name = name;
       this.age = age;
       this.indoorStatus = indoorStatus;
   }

   public String getName() {
       return name;
   }

   public void setName(String name) {
       this.name = name;
   }

   public int getAge() {
       return age;
   }

   public void setAge(int age) {
       this.age = age;
   }

   public boolean isIndoorStatus() {
       return indoorStatus;
   }

   public void setIndoorStatus(boolean indoorStatus) {
       this.indoorStatus = indoorStatus;
   }

   @Override
   public String toString() {
       return "Cat [name=" + name + ", age=" + age + ", indoorStatus=" + indoorStatus + "]";
   }

   @Override
   public int compareTo(Cat o) {
       return this.age - o.age;
   }

}

TestCat.java

import java.util.Arrays;

public class TestCat {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       // TODO Auto-generated method stub
       Cat cats[]=new Cat[6];
       cats[0]=new Cat("puppyCat",2,true);
       cats[1]=new Cat("pussiCat",3,false);
       cats[2]=new Cat("tommiCat",4,false);
       cats[3]=new Cat("sonyCat",5,false);
       cats[4]=new Cat("snupiCat",2,true);
       cats[5]=new Cat("jurryCat",4,true);
       Arrays.sort(cats);
      
       for(Cat cat :cats)
       {
           if(!cat.isIndoorStatus())
           System.out.println(cat);
       }
   }

}
