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. -

: 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.
