Task 1: Appears that is fine (new readonly variable)
public readonly int ReactionTime;
Task 2: Appears that is fine (change Frog constructor, add new assignment)
public Frog(int tongueLength, int reactionTime)
{
TongueLength = tongueLength;
ReactionTime = reactionTime;
}
Task 3: Ok so this is where you're having some issues I take it.
Add another method named EatFly that takes two integer parameters and returns a boolean value. Name the parameters distanceToFly and flyReactionTime. Return true if the frogβs tongue is longer (i.e. greater) or equal to than the distance to the fly and its reaction time is faster (i.e. less) or equal to than the flyβs reaction time.
Let's break it down :)
- Add another method named EatFly that takes two integer parameters.
So we're going to have an overloaded method here - same method name, different argument signature.
public bool EatFly(int distanceToFly, int flyReactionTime)
{
// we will add a return when we get into the guts of this method shortly.
}
- Return true if frog's tongue (TongueLength) is greater than or equal to the distance to fly (distanceToFly) AND frog's reaction time (ReactionTime) is less than or equal to the fly's reaction time (flyReactionTime)
- TongueLength >= distanceToFly &&
- ReactionTime <= flyReactionTime
So let's put all that together:
if(TongueLength >= distanceToFly && ReactionTime <= flyReactionTime)
{
return true; // if conditions are met we return true
} else return false; // if they are not we return false
Now you just need to piece it all together. I hope that helps you out :)
Great effort Amze! Keep it up,
Dave
