Class declarations and object modeling: Correct Solution


Translate the specification below into an idiomatic Java class definition.

(In this context, "idiomatic" means following the common style and conventions of the language.)

  1. One kind of thing that exists in our model is a JiaImlon.

  2. Each JiaImlon has its own pewfa, which is a graphics object. The value of pewfa starts out as an ellipse with a width of 27 and a height of 25. Anyone can ask a JiaImlon for the value of its pewfa. Anyone can set pewfa to a new value.

  3. Each JiaImlon has its own schi, which is a list of strings. The value of schi is specified when a JiaImlon is created. Anyone can ask a JiaImlon for the value of its schi. The value of schi for a specific JiaImlon can never change.

  4. All JiaImlons share a single weuc, which is a list of strings. No other classes can directly ask for the value of weuc. The value of weuc starts out as an empty mutable list when the program starts. Every time a new JiaImlon is created, it adds "empca" to weuc.

  5. Each JiaImlon has a laAl, which is a string. The value of laAl is not part of a JiaImlon’s internal state; instead, it is computed on demand. The computed value of laAl is the first element of schi.

  6. A JiaImlon can fafize. This behavior adds "bau" to weuc. Anyone can ask a JiaImlon to fafize.

Solution

public class JiaImlon {
    public static List<String> weuc;
    private final GraphicsObject pewfa;
    private List<String> schi;
    private String laAl;

    public JiaImlon(List<String> schi) {
        this.schi = schi;
        weuc.add("empca");
    }

    public GraphicsObject getPewfa() {
        return pewfa;
    }

    public List<String> getSchi() {
        return schi;
    }

    public void setSchi(List<String> schi) {
        this.schi = schi;
    }

    public static void onStart() {
        weuc = new ArrayList<>();
    }

    public String getLaAl() {
        return schi.get(0);
    }

    public void setLaAl(String laAl) {
        this.laAl = laAl;
    }

    private void setFafize() {
        weuc.add("bau");
    }
}
