Weapon class assignment

Objective

• You will learn to create a basic class that encapsulates several attributes and methods

Purpose

• The purpose of the Weapon class is to encapsulate the necessary attributes and methods that represent a weapon in the game

Attributes

The Weapon class should use instance variables to represent the following attributes. All attributes should be declared private:

• String name: the name of the weapon (e.g., "sword" or "magic wand").

• int damageModifier: an integer added to the damage inflicted when the creature scores a hit.

• String hitVerb: a verb to describe the action of the weapon when it scores a hit (e.g., "slashes" or "zaps").

• String missVerb: a verb to describe the action of the weapon when it misses (e.g., "whiffs" or "misses").

Methods

The Weapon class should have the following methods:

Constructors:

• Weapon(): the default constructor should initialize the damage modifier to 0, the name to "bare hands", the hit verb to "strikes" and the miss verb to "misses".

• Weapon(int modifier, String name, String hit, String miss): this specific constructor should initialize all the attributes to the specified values.

Accessors/Mutators:

• All the attributes are declared private, so you should create accessor and mutator methods for each attribute. The name of the accessor/mutator should follow the standard Java naming conventions
  • getName(): returns the name attribute
  • setName(String newName): sets the name attribute to the newName parameter
  • getHitVerb(): returns the hit verb
  • setHitVerb(String newHitVerb): sets the hitVerb attribute to the newHitVerb parameter
  • getMissVerb(): returns the miss verb
  • setMissVerb(String newMissVerb): sets the missVerb attribute to the newMissVerb parameter
  • getDamageModifier(): returns the damageModifier
  • setDamageModifier(int newDamageModifier): sets the damageModifier attribute to the newDamageModifier parameter
