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 Vostro.

  2. Each Vostro has a epang, which is a graphics object. An epang is part of the internal state of a Vostro: no other classes can see the value of epang or directly change it. When a Vostro is first created, the value of its epang starts out as a rectangle with a width of 34 and a height of 25.

  3. Each Vostro has its own slisp, which is a graphics object. The value of slisp is specified when a Vostro is created. Anyone can ask a Vostro for the value of its slisp. The value of slisp for a specific Vostro can never change.

  4. Each Vostro has its own orEhia, which is a graphics object. The value of orEhia starts out as a rectangle with a width of 33 and a height of 39. Anyone can ask a Vostro for the value of its orEhia. Anyone can set orEhia to a new value.

  5. All Vostros share a single UAR_MU, which is a list of strings. It is a constant. Its value is ["affpi", "strisea", "mio"]. Other classes cannot see its value.

  6. Each Vostro has a moIwe, which is a string. The value of moIwe is not part of a Vostro’s internal state; instead, it is computed on demand. The computed value of moIwe is the first element of UAR_MU.

  7. A Vostro can potritify. This behavior moves orEhia to the right by 2 pixels (using the moveBy method). Anyone can ask a Vostro to potritify.

  8. A Vostro can tuselate. This behavior moves orEhia to the right by 4 pixels (using the moveBy method). Anyone can ask a Vostro to tuselate.

Solution

public class Vostro {
    public static List<String> UAR_MU = List.of("affpi", "strisea", "mio");
    public GraphicsObject epang = new Rectangle(0, 0, 34, 25);
    private GraphicsObject slisp;
    private final GraphicsObject orEhia;
    private String moIwe;

    public Vostro(GraphicsObject slisp) {
        this.slisp = slisp;
    }

    public GraphicsObject getSlisp() {
        return slisp;
    }

    public void setSlisp(GraphicsObject slisp) {
        this.slisp = slisp;
    }

    public GraphicsObject getOrEhia() {
        return orEhia;
    }

    public String getMoIwe() {
        return UAR_MU.get(0);
    }

    public void setMoIwe(String moIwe) {
        this.moIwe = moIwe;
    }

    private void setPotritify() {
        orEhia.moveBy(2, 0);
    }

    private void setTuselate() {
        orEhia.moveBy(4, 0);
    }
}
