Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 5, Problem 3AW
Explanation of Solution
Methods:
- The methods could be used to break a complex
program into small pieces. - The “void” method simply executes a statements group and then terminates.
- A value returning method would return a value to statement that has called it.
- While calling a method, program would branch to that method.
- It would then execute statements in its body.
- The values that are sent into a method are termed as “arguments”.
- A “parameter” denotes a special variable that holds a value that is being passed into a method.
- The “passed by value” means that only copy of a value of argument is been passed into parameter variable.
- A “local variable” is been declared inside a method, it is not accessible to statements outside method...

THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE IN JAVA
Modify the Account class to provide a debit method that withdraws money from an Account. Ensure that the debit amount does not exceed the Account's balance. If it does, the balance should be left unchanged and the method should print out a message indicating "Debit amount exceeded amount balance." Modify class AccountTest to test method debit. Below are links to the Account and AccountTest programs.
//This is for the account class
public class Account {private String name; //instance variableprivate double balance; //instance variable//Account constructor that receives two parameterspublic Account(String name, double balance){this.name = name; //assing name to instance varialbe name//validate that the balance is greater than 0.0; if it's not,//instance varisble balance keeps its default initial value of 0.0if (balance > 0.0){ //if the balance is valaidthis.balance = balance; //assign it to instance variable balance}}//method that deposits (adds)…
Java Programming problem
Create a checking account class with three attributes: account number, owner’s name, and balance.
Create constructor, getters and setters. If one is to set the initial balance of an account as a negative value in a setter or a constructor, remind the user about the error and set it as 0.
Create a CheckingAccountDemo class, and create a main method in which
Ask for the name, account number, and initial balance for one account from the keyboard input. With these input values as arguments in a call to the constructor, create a CheckingAccount object.
Print the summary of this account that includes information on the name, account number, and balance by calling the getters.
Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
13. The non-static methods of a class are called instance method.
14. A constructor has no type and is therefore a void method.
15. A class can have only two constructors.
16. In shallow copying, each reference variable refers to its own object.
21. The method finalize automatically executes when the class objects goes out of scope.
22. A mutator method of a class changes the values of data members of the class.
23. In java, the reference this is used to refer to only the methods, not the instance variables of a class.
24. Classes that are defined within other classes are called inside classes.
25. Modifiers are used to alter the behavior of the class
26. A constructor has the same name as the class.
27. Constructors are called like any other method.
28. You can perform some arithmetic operations on class objects.
