Assignment 2: A StudentInfo Class

Assigned: Wednesday, February 2, 2000
Due: Tuesday, February 8, 2000

Build a class, StudentInfo, that can be used to store information on a student. You need not worry about storing information on all a student's classes; overall GPA is fine.

As you might expect, some aspects of student information will change, while other aspects will remain fixed. You should define a setXXX method for things that can change. You should define a getXXX method to extract any piece of information you think that another class might use. At least one of your methods should do more than just get or set a field of the class.

Once you have built the class, write a simple test program that shows that the various methods work.

You may work alone or in groups of up to size four. If you work in a group, turn in one assignment for the whole group.

For extra credit, use auxiliary classes to store portions of the information. For example, you might define a separate Name class to represent names.
