Ok I am a programming student and need help with a problem, I already have most of it (so I don't need you guys to do my hw :P) but I am having problems with am, and I am not even sure if I am doing it right.
Problem: (The Person, Sruden, Employee, Faculty, and Staff classes) Design a class named Person and its two subclasses named Student and Employee. Make Faculty and Staff subclasses of Employee. A person has a name, address, phone number, and email address. A student has a class status (freshman, sophomore, junior, or senior). Define the status as a constant. An employee has an office, salary, date hired. Define a class named MyDate that contains the fields year, month, and day. A faculty member has office hours and a rank. A staff member has a title. Overridde the toString method in each class to display the class name and the person's name.
Draw the UML diagram for classes. Implement the classes. Write a tes program that creates a Person, Student, Employee, Faculty, and Staff, and invokes their toString() methods.
Here is What I have so far: (I have 6 classes + 1 test file so 7 different files)
public class person {
private String name, address, phone, email;
public person(){
}
public person(String name, String address, String phone, String email){
this.name = name;
this.address = address;
this.phone = phone;
this.email = email;
}
public String getName(){
return name;
}
public void setName(String name){
this.name = name;
}
public String getAddress(){
return address;
}
public void setAddress(String address){
this.address = address;
}
public String getPhone(){
return phone;
}
public void setPhone(String phone){
this.phone = phone;
}
public String getEmail(){
return phone;
}
public void setEmail(String email){
this.email = email;
}
@Override
public String toString(){
return getClass().getName() + "\n" + name;
}
}public class student extends person{
private final String CLASS_STATUS;
public student(String CLASS_STATUS){
this.CLASS_STATUS =CLASS_STATUS;
}
public String getClassStatus(){
return CLASS_STATUS;
}
}public class employee extends person{
private String office,salary;
private MyDate DATE_HIRED;
public employee(){
}
public employee(String office, String salary, MyDate DATE_HIRED){
this.office = office;
this.salary = salary;
this.DATE_HIRED = DATE_HIRED;
}
public String office(){
return office;
}
public void setOffice(String office){
this.office = office;
}
public String getSalary(){
return salary;
}
public void setSalary(String salary){
this.salary = salary;
}
public MyDate getMyDate(){
return DATE_HIRED;
}
}public class MyDate{
private int month, day, year;
public MyDate(int month, int day, int year){
this.day = day;
this.month =month;
this.year = year;
}
}public class faculty extends employee {
private String office_hours, rank;
public faculty(){
}
public faculty(String office_hours, String rank){
this.office_hours = office_hours;
this.rank = rank;
}
public String getOfficeHours(){
return office_hours;
}
public void setOfficeHours(String office_hours){
this.office_hours = office_hours;
}
public String getRank(){
return rank;
}
public void setRank(String rank){
this.rank = rank;
}
}public class staff extends employee{
private String title;
public staff(){
}
public staff(String title){
this.title = title;
}
public String getTitle(){
return title;
}
public void setTitle(String title){
this.title =title;
}
}Ok, here is where I have the problem, I cannot run my test program because I have errors which is (cannot find symbol) I am not sure what I am doing wrong and how to fix it, I am not sure if it is a problem with the classes or with the test program. (And mention if you see any other problems thanks)
public class test {
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
person person = new Person("John Doe", "123 Somewhere", "415-555-1212", "johndoe@somewhere.com");
person student = new Student("Mary Jane", "555 School Street", "650-555-1212", "mj@abc.com", "junior");
person employee = new Employee("Tom Jones", "777 B Street", "408-888-9999", "tj@xyz.com");
person faculty = new Faculty("Jill Johnson", "999 Park Ave", "925-222-3333", "jj@abcxyz.com");
person staff = new Staff("Jack I. Box", "21 Jump Street", "707-212-1112", "jib@jack.com");
System.out.println(person.toString() + "\n");
System.out.println(student.toString() + "\n");
System.out.println(employee.toString() + "\n");
System.out.println(faculty.toString() + "\n");
System.out.println(staff.toString() + "\n");
}
}
