width
andheight
, methods for area and dimensions, and overridestoString()
for a descriptive output. - RectangleTester Example: Tests
Rectangle
by creating an instance and printing its dimensions.
Method Calling in Rectangle Class
- Getters for Rectangle Class:
getHeight()
,getWidth()
, andgetArea()
methods return corresponding attributes. - RectangleTester Use: Creates a rectangle instance and prints its dimensions and area using the defined methods.
Point Class Usage
- Point Class Features: Stores x and y coordinates, includes a method to move the point and overrides
toString()
to display position. - PointTester Example: Demonstrates creation, movement, and printing of
Point
objects.
Student Class Implementation

firstName
,lastName
, andgradeLevel
, and includes atoString()
method for representation. - StudentTester Demonstration: Creates student instances and prints their information.
Text Message Class
- TextMessage Class Design: Defines sender, receiver, and message, with a
toString()
method for formatted output. - Messages Example: Instantiates and prints messages between
Bart
andLisa
.
Coin Flip Simulation
- CoinFlips Class: Simulates
FLIPS
number of coin tosses, counting heads and tails outcomes, and calculates percentages. - Randomizer Usage: Generates random boolean values for coin toss outcomes.
Longest Streak Tracker
