A little bit of help is all i need

[biggiepk]

Hi guys, 

Can somebody help me how to do this? Or link me to some tutorial?  

thanks 

 

Create a class Book with private attributes  book Title, book Author, numOfPages and constructors: zero argument, constructor with parameters, getters and seters for each attribute.

I would suggest you to go online for this. This forum might not be a good page, in my opinion. But someone should be able to help. Or I think you should try to find it over the internet, or perhaps look it up on YouTube.

Oh god please don't tell me it's java...

I only remember that i used netbeans and i could generate the getters and setters but that's it...

We need three files for this, I'm not sure what language you are using but this example is in C++.

I've not used the exact names and properties you mentioned, this should be enough to get you started but I wont do it for you.

 

Any questions, ask away.

 

 

Main.cpp (The main section of your program, here we will call the getter/setter/constructor functions for your class)

#include <iostream>
#include "Book.h"

int main() {
    // Construct a book with parameters
    Book Novel("The Chronicals", 5000);
  
    // Print out the size of the book
    std::cout << "Book Length: " << Novel.getSize() << std::endl;
  
    // Construct a book with no parameters
    Book Notes();
  
    // Set size of "Notes" book.
    Notes.setSize(1000);
  
    // Verify the new size of the "Notes" book.
    std::cout << "Book Length: " << Notes.getSize() << std::endl;
  
    return 0;
}

 

Book.h (The book class declaration)

#ifndef BOOK_H
#define BOOK_H

class Book {
public:
    // Provide a constructor with parameters
    Book(const char* bookName, unsigned int size);
  
    // Provide a blank constructor
    Book();

    // Provide a destructor
	~Book();
	
    // Declare Getter/Setter functions
    unsigned int getSize();
    void setSize(unsigned int bookSize);

private:
    unsigned int size;
    std::string name;
};


#endif

 

Book.cpp (The definition of the functions declared in Book.h)

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

#include "Book.h"

// Class constructor with values
Book::Book(const char* bookName, unsigned int bookSize) {
	name = bookName;
	size = bookSize;
	std::cout << "Book constructed with name: " << name << std::endl;
};

// Class blank constructor
Book::Book(){
    name = "unNamed"
    size = 0;
    std::cout << "Book constructed with name: " << name << std::endl;
};

// Class destructor
Book::~Book() {
	std::cout << "Book destructed with name: " << name << std::endl;
}

// Getter for Book Size
unsigned int Book::getSize() {
	return this->size;
}

// Setter for Book Size
void Book::setSize(unsigned int bookSize) {
	this->size = bookSize;
}

What language you writing in?
