Previous: Assignment 2: Object Methods
Chapter 6 of the book explains the syntax for
object methods and makes some suggestions about when you might choose
one syntax over the other.
- Go back over the Deck assignment from last week and consider
which methods would be better as object methods. Go ahead and
transform them and then test the program to make sure it still
works.
- Compare the number of lines and number of words in the program
before and after this transformation. Which program is more concise?
Which program seems easier to read to you? Which program seems
like a more natural way to express the computation? Please write
a paragraph or two to answer these questions.
