Hey now, you should be thanking your teachers for this incredibly valuable early life lesson on the difference between what the customer says that they want and what they actually need, and which of these two you are going to get paid more for!
Remember: the customer is always right!
/s
and which of these two you are going to get paid more for
the secret answer to this is
neither :(
Hmmm…yes this isn’t C#…this isn’t C# at all. I can’t read this.
but
String
s are objects 😔This is Java, so you can even turn those ints into Integers and doubles into Doubles if you want to maximize the objects in that part of the code. In all seriousness, though, it looks perfectly fine to me.
Great idea, but unfortunately technicalities won’t get me marks.
But answer07 is an object… Not sure what your teacher/ta disliked 😆
I presume WeatherData.getData() should be going into some Data class that has multiple properties (using the , as a delimiter) instead of what OP is doing and just using the String
I mean, unless it’s explicitly specified, one can still argue. For fun, that is. I did it a few times with stuff like using maps when the task said I couldn’t use loops. Didn’t really get into trouble since there was a proper solution ready as well.
This is one condition in which I might like the “If it runs, you get marks” examiners
Depends on what was the course about. If it’s about computation, then sure. If it’s about OOP or architecture design (this one I wouldn’t expect, unfortunately, but would be nice if it was taught somewhere), then the point is not just to run something.
To be needlessly pedantic on this joke, answer07 in itself is not an object, but a class, a blueprint for objects. An instance of that class would be an object. Calling the static function main does also not create an instance of the class in the class loader.
To expand on that you can never instantiate an object of type answer07 since it’s a static class.
(For the students here the “static” modifier means “it’s on the class, not the object”. Non-static will only be accessible as a “obj.whatever” but static is accessible by “Class.whatever”)
Is the class declared static? I assume the “…ic class Answer07” at the top stands for “public class Answer07”.
I don’t think java supports top level static classes (it does have nested static classes, though).
It looks like exactly 4 characters are missing, so
public
andstatic
would fit, but I never sawstatic
instead ofpublic static
, so I think you’re right. On the other hand, I don’t use Java anymore and couldn’t be bothered about such details
Oh, I haven’t handed it in yet. We were supposed to write our own methods.
So really it’s in a few days iwfu(I will fuck up)
