Introduction to Greenfoot Eueung Mulyana | kakihijau.googlepages.com 8 The Leaf Class  The simplest class compared to the Wombat and WombatWorld class  Leaf objects do nothing!  As you can see in the previous slide, the Leaf class has no statement and consists of an empty constructor

Introduction to Greenfoot Eueung Mulyana | kakihijau.googlepages.com 9 The Wombat Class (1) import necessary packages class header; Wombat is a subclass from Actor data (constants and variables) class constructor and methods

Introduction to Greenfoot Eueung Mulyana | kakihijau.googlepages.com 10 The Wombat Class (2)  4 constants : EAST, WEST, NORTH, SOUTH  2 variables : direction, leavesEaten  1 constructor : Wombat()  8 methods : –getLeavesEaten(), foundLeaf(), eatLeaf() –setDirection(), turnLeft() –canMove(), move() –act()

Introduction to Greenfoot Eueung Mulyana | kakihijau.googlepages.com 11 The Wombat Class (3) constructor  initialising direction and leavesEaten this method is inherited from the superclass Actor is there any Leaf object in my position? remove that Leaf object update the variable leavesEaten

Introduction to Greenfoot Eueung Mulyana | kakihijau.googlepages.com 19 The WombatWorld Class (1)  1 constructor : WombatWorld()  2 methods : –populate() –randomLeaves()

Introduction to Greenfoot Eueung Mulyana | kakihijau.googlepages.com 20 The WombatWorld Class (2) calls the World constructor sets the background. the method is inherited from the superclass World cell.jpg
