Fri Mar 28

Choose three of the problems listed here and solve them.

Thu Mar 06

Your first assignment is to define a class Account.

When you use it in this main:

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Account dgerman = new Account("Adrian German"); 
    dgerman.report(); 
    Account bottesen = new Account("Bjorn Ottesen"); 
    bottesen.deposit(3, 20); 
    bottesen.report(); 
    Account lbird = new Account("Larry Bird"); 
    lbird.report(); 
    bottesen.deposit(2, 19); 
    lbird.deposit(50, 0); 
    lbird.report(); 
    bottesen.report(); 
  }

it should produce this output:

Current balance in Adrian German's account: $0.00
Deposit being made in Bjorn Ottesen's account in the amount of: $3.20
Current balance in Bjorn Ottesen's account: $3.20
Current balance in Larry Bird's account: $0.00
Deposit being made in Bjorn Ottesen's account in the amount of: $2.19
Deposit being made in Larry Bird's account in the amount of: $50.00
Current balance in Larry Bird's account: $50.00
Current balance in Bjorn Ottesen's account: $5.39
