13,163 PointsPlease help with my code.
Applying discount code, I don't really understand what is wrong with my code.
public class Order {
private String itemName;
private int priceInCents;
private String discountCode;
public Order(String itemName, int priceInCents) {
this.itemName = itemName;
this.priceInCents = priceInCents;
}
public String getItemName() {
return itemName;
}
public int getPriceInCents() {
return priceInCents;
}
public String getDiscountCode() {
return discountCode;
}
public void applyDiscountCode(String discountCode) {
this.discountCode = discountCode;
}
public String normalizeDiscountCode(){
String discountCode = applyDiscountCode(String discountCode).toUpperCase();
this.discountCode = discountCode;
return discountCode;
}
}

Python Development Techdegree Graduate 38,679 PointsYou need to edit the normalizeDiscountCode method to accept a string (the code to be normalized).
You should call the normalizeDiscountCode from within the applyDiscountCode method.
public class Order {
private String itemName;
private int priceInCents;
private String discountCode;
public Order(String itemName, int priceInCents) {
this.itemName = itemName;
this.priceInCents = priceInCents;
}
public String getItemName() {
return itemName;
}
public int getPriceInCents() {
return priceInCents;
}
public String getDiscountCode() {
return discountCode;
}
public void applyDiscountCode(String discountCode) {
// send discount code to normalizeDiscountCode and assign the result to this.discountCode
this.discountCode = normalizeDiscountCode(discountCode);
}
private String normalizeDiscountCode(String discountCode){
// receive a discount code and pass back the UPPERCASE version
return discountCode.toUpperCase();
}
}
