Question

Why am I getting 2 java errors "cannot find symbol" ?

public class TestAutomobiles
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
//Valid arguments for automobile class
Automobile automobile1 = new Automobile(1234, "Caddillac", "STS", "Silver", 2005, 22);

//print using get methods
System.out.println("ID: "+automobile1.getID());
System.out.println("Make: "+automobile1.getMake());
System.out.println("Model: "+automobile1.getModel());
System.out.println("Color: "+automobile1.getColor());
System.out.println("Year: "+automobile1.getYear());
System.out.println("MPG: "+automobile1.getMPG());

//invalid arguments for automobile class
//Negative ID number, Year less than 2000, MPG more than 60
Automobile automobile2 = new Automobile(-1234,"Caddillac", "STS", "Silver", 1999, 61);

//print using get methods
System.out.println("ID: "+automobile2.getID());
System.out.println("Make: "+automobile2.getMake());
System.out.println("Model: "+automobile2.getModel());
System.out.println("Color: "+automobile2.getColor());
System.out.println("Year: "+automobile2.getYear());
System.out.println("MPG: "+automobile2.getMPG());
}

}

HERE IS THE Automobile class that is being tested.

public class Automobile
{
private int ID;
private String make;
private String model;
private String color;
private int year;
private double mpg;
public Automobile(int ID, String make, String model, String color, int year, double mpg)
{
setID(ID);
this.make = make;
this.model = model;
this.color = color;
setYear(year);
setMPG(mpg);
}
public void setID(int ID)
{
//checking to see if ID is less thatn 0 or more than 9999
if(ID<0 ||ID > 9999)
this.ID = 0;
else
this.ID = ID;
}

public int getID()
{
return ID;
}

//methods for set/get make value
public void setMake(String make)
{
this.make = make;
}

public String getmake()
{
return make;
}

//method to set/get model value
public void setModel(String model)
{
this.model = model;
}

public String getModel()
{
return model;
}

//method to set/get color value
public void setColor(String color)
{
this.color = color;
}

public String getColor()
{
return color;
}

//method to set/get year value
public void setYear(int year)
{
//checking to see if year is less than 2000 or more than 2017
if(year < 2000 || year > 2017)
this.year = 0;
else
this.year = year;
}

public int getYear()
{
return year;
}
//method to set/get mpg value
public void setMPG(double mpg)
{
//checking to see if miles are less than 10 or more than 60
if(mpg < 10 || mpg > 60)
this.mpg = 0;
else
this.mpg = mpg;
}

public double getMPG()
{
return mpg;
}

}

Explanation / Answer

The code youhave given above works properly if you change the function name in Automobile class from getmake() to getMake().

The ouput got for the codeis given below:

ID: 1234
Make: Caddillac
Model: STS
Color: Silver
Year: 2005
MPG: 22.0
ID: 0
Make: Caddillac
Model: STS
Color: Silver
Year: 0
MPG: 0.0
