Chapter 5, Problem 20PC
Coin-Toss Simulator
Write a class named Coin. The Coin class should have the following field:
- A String named sideUp. The sideUp field will hold either “heads” cr “tails” indicating the side of the coin that is facing up.
The Coin class should have the following methods:
- A no-arg constructor that calls the toss method, described next.
- A void method named toss that simulates the tossing of the coin. When the toss method is called, it generates a random number in the range of 0 through 1. If the random number is 0, then it sets the sideUp field to “heads”. If the random number is 1, then it sets the sideUp field to “tails”.
- A method named getSideUp that returns the value of the sideUp field.

Write a class named Car that has the following fields:
The yearModel field is an int that holds the car’s year model.
The make field references a String object that holds the make of the car.
The speed field is an int that holds the car’s current speed.
In addition, the class should have the following constructor and other methods.
The constructor should accept the car’s year and make as arguments. These values should be assigned to the object’s yearModel and make fields. The constructor should also assign 0 to the speed field.
Constructor: The constructor should accept no arguments.
Constructor: The constructor should accept the car’s year as argument.Assign the value to the object’s yearModel. No need to assign anything to the make and assign 0 to speed.
