Study Notes

WeatherForecast Class

  • Defines a class named WeatherForecast for managing weather information.
  • Contains instance variables:
    • skies (string) initialized to an empty string.
    • high (integer) initialized to 0.
    • low (integer) initialized to 0.
  • Provides methods for setting and getting:
    • set_skies(skies): Stores the weather condition.
    • set_high(high): Stores the high temperature.
    • set_low(low): Stores the low temperature.
    • get_skies(): Returns the current weather condition.
    • get_high(): Returns the high temperature.
    • get_low(): Returns the low temperature.

Counter Class (Basic)

  • Defines a class named Counter to track a count.
  • Contains an instance variable:
    • counter (integer) initialized to 0.
  • Provides methods for:
    • increment(): Increases the counter by 1.
    • get_value(): Returns the current value of the counter.

Counter Class (With Parameterized Constructor)

  • Defines another version of the Counter class that takes an initial value.
  • Contains instance variable:
    • counter initialized via constructor.
  • Provides methods for:
    • increment(): Increases the counter by 1.
    • decrement(): Decreases the counter by 1.
    • get_value(): Returns the current value of the counter.

Counter Class (With Limit)

  • Defines a Counter class that incorporates a limit for counting.
  • Contains instance variables:
    • counter (integer) and limit (integer) initialized via constructor.
  • Provides methods for:
    • increment(): Increases the counter by 1 if it's less than the limit.
    • decrement(): Decreases the counter by 1 if it's greater than 0.
    • get_value(): Returns the current value of the counter.

Player Class

  • Defines a class named Player to manage player information in a game.
  • Contains instance variables:
    • name (string) initialized to an empty string.
    • score (integer) initialized to 0.
  • Provides methods for:
    • set_name(name): Sets the player's name.
    • set_score(score): Sets the player's score.
    • get_name(): Returns the player's name.
    • get_score(): Returns the player's score.

ContestResult Class

  • Defines a class named ContestResult to hold competition results.
  • Contains instance variables:
    • winner, second_place, third_place (all strings) initialized to empty strings.
  • Provides methods for setting results:
    • set_winner(name): Sets the winner's name.
    • set_second_place(name): Assigns the name for second place.
    • set_third_place(name): Assigns the name for third place.
  • Additional methods for getting results can be inferred.
