Which of the following are invalid names? Why?
-
Based on the example of the car in this chapter, think of an object you use every day. Identify a class for that object and write five actions you do with that object.
-
Given the list in exercise 2, use the following syntax:
-
Imagine that you owned a boat and a motorcycle in addition to a car. List the actions you would perform with each of these. Do you have any overlap between these actions?
-
Based on question 4, imagine you had a class called a Vehicle and an object called myVehicle that could be either a Car, a Motorcycle, or a Boat. What if you wrote the following:
-
In a procedural language such as C, you think about actions and then write code to perform the action on various objects. Referring to the car example, you might write a procedure in C to wash a vehicle and then inside that procedure write code to handle washing a car, washing a boat, washing a motorcycle, and so on. If you took that approach and then wanted to add a new vehicle type (see the previous exercise), do you see advantages or disadvantages to using this procedural approach over an object-oriented approach?
-
Define a class called Point that will hold a Cartesian coordinate (x, y), where x and y are integers. Define methods to individually set the x and y coordinates of a point and retrieve their values. Write an Objective-C program to implement your new class and test it.

to rewrite your list in this format.

Do you see any advantages of being able to apply an action to an object that could be from one of several classes?
