Overloading the constructor...help please
807601Apr 4 2008 — edited Apr 4 2008I am a first year Computer Engineering student and we were given the following assignment:
File Account.java contains a definition for a simple bank account class with methods to withdraw, deposit, get the balance
and account number, and return a String representation. Modify the file as follows:
*1. Overload the constructor as follows:*
(a) public Account (double initBal, String owner, long number) - initializes the balance, owner, and account number as specified.
(b) public Account (double initBal, String owner) - initializes the balance and owner as specified; randomly generates the account number.
(c) public Account (String owner) - initializes the owner as specified; sets the initial balance to 0 and randomly generates the account number.
*2. Overload the withdraw method with one that also takes a fee and deducts that fee from the account.*
TestAccount.java contains a simple program that exercises these methods. Use it as a test file.
When I attempt to compile and run TestAccount.java, I get several lengthy errors and I'm not quite sure what I'm doing wrong or have left out of the code. If someone could help me out, I would really appreciate it. I'm new at this and VERY confused.
