What's wrong ?

Question about the task

Create a Friend class

Java Syntax, Level 5, Lesson 7

Under discussion

Why this is not working ?

Create the Friend class with three initializers (three initialize methods):
- Name
- Name, age
- Name, age, sex

Note:
name is a String, age is an int, and sex is a char.

Requirements:

The Friend class must have a String variable name.
The Friend class must have an int variable age.
The Friend class must have a char variable sex.
The class must have an initialize method that takes a name as an argument and initializes the corresponding instance variable.
The class must have an initialize method that takes a name and age as arguments, and initializes the corresponding instance variables.
The class must have an initialize method that takes a name, age, and sex as arguments, and initializes the corresponding instance variables.

package com.codegym.task.task05.task0509; /* Create a Friend class */ public class Friend { private String name; private int age; private char sex; public Friend(String name, int age, char sex){ this.name = name; this.age = age; this.sex = sex; } public Friend(String name, int age){ this.name = name; this.age = age; } public Friend(String name){ this.name = name; } public static void main(String[] args) { Friend f1 = new Friend("Heloasa", 12, 'M'); Friend f2 = new Friend("Helos", 11); Friend f3 = new Friend("Helo"); } }

(1)you created 3 methods called "Friend". Change it to "public void initialize" instead of "public Friend". (2)Requirements did not ask you to created and instantiate 3 classes in your main method. Take that out, too. that should do the trick

public class Friend { //write your code here // name is a String, age is an int, and sex is a char. private String name; private int age; private char sex; public void initialize(String name) { this.name = name; } public void initialize(String name,int age) { this.name = name; this.age = age; /*this.name = name; this.age = age;*/ } public void initialize(String name, int age, char sex) { this.name = name; this.age = age; this.sex = sex; /* this.name = name; this.age = age; this.sex = sex;*/ } public static void main(String[] args) { } }
