10,285 PointsCan't understand Set & Get methods
I have no idea how to code this problem, I don't understand get & set
class Student {
constructor(gpa, credits){
this.gpa = gpa;
this.credits = credits;
}
stringGPA() {
return this.gpa.toString();
}
get level() {
if (this.credits > 90 ) {
return 'Senior';
} else if (this.credits > 60) {
return 'Junior';
} else if (this.credits > 30) {
return 'Sophomore';
} else {
return 'Freshman';
}
}
get major() {
if(this.level === 'Junior' || this.level === 'Senior') {
this._major = major;
return this._major;
}
else if(this.level === 'Freshman' || this.level === 'Sophomore') {
this._major = none;
return this._major;
}
}
set major(major) {
this._major = major;
}
}
var student = new Student(3.9, 60);

First, your get major() should actually be your setter. The challenge doesn't ask you to create a get for the major, only a setter.
After that, the rest if your code is also fairly close. The challenge states that if the student is a freshman or sophomore, to set their major back to 'None'. Make a special note that this should be the string 'None'.
That would make your code as the following which should get you through the challenge:
class Student {
constructor(gpa, credits){
this.gpa = gpa;
this.credits = credits;
}
stringGPA() {
return this.gpa.toString();
}
get level() {
if (this.credits > 90 ) {
return 'Senior';
} else if (this.credits > 60) {
return 'Junior';
} else if (this.credits > 30) {
return 'Sophomore';
} else {
return 'Freshman';
}
}
set major(major) {
if(this.level === 'Junior' || this.level === 'Senior') {
this._major = major;
return this._major;
}
else if(this.level === 'Freshman' || this.level === 'Sophomore') {
this._major = 'None';
return this._major;
}
}
}
var student = new Student(3.9, 60);
