Hey guys, I really need help here. So far everything is fine however i can't get the expected out which is this:

Welcome to Shape Management

Rectangle object is created

Shape Type : Rectangle

Color : red

Length : 2

Width : 3

Area : 6

Triangle object is created

Shape Type : Triangle

Color : blue

BaseLength : 2

Height : 3

Area : 3

 

I'm only getting this :

Welcome to Shape Management

Rectangle object is created

Shape Type : Rectangle

Color : red

Triangle object is created

Shape Type : Triangle

Color : blue

 

Please help me thanks.

Your showDimension() functions are empty.

Your showDimension() functions are empty.

{    class Rectangle : Shape, IDisplayable    {        public double Length;        public double Width;        public Rectangle()        {            Length = 0;            Width = 0;            ShapeType = "Rectangle";            Console.WriteLine("Rectangle object is created");        }        protected override void computeArea()        {            Area = Length * Width;        }        public void showDimension()        {            Console.WriteLine("Length : 2");            Console.WriteLine("Width : 3");           }            }}{    class Triangle : Shape, IDisplayable    {        public double BaseLength;        public double Height;        public Triangle()        {            BaseLength = 0;            Height = 0;            ShapeType = "Triangle";            Console.WriteLine("Triangle object is created");        }        protected override void computeArea()        {            Area = 0.5 * BaseLength * Height;        }        public void showDimension()        {            Console.WriteLine("BaseLength : 2");            Console.WriteLine("Height : 3");        }    }}

Is this correct? Is this hardcoding? I got it just like the expected output but without the Area.

Yes, that is hardcording and you shouldn't do it. Instead, you can use the writeline method that takes a string format and additional arguments that reads from the variables you made.  So for the triangle it would be something like

public void showDimension(){    Console.WriteLine("BaseLength : {0}",BaseLength);    Console.WriteLine("Height : {0}",Height);}

Yeap, I did that too eventually including Area which is:

Console.WriteLine("Area : {0}", Area);

However the output for my Area is 0. I have yet to make any changes with regards to Area

Yeah, that's because you need to update width and length with values. Right now they just stay at 0.
