Question

This is probably going to be an easy thing but I am having a brain fart. I created an object

    Student s = new Student();

I need to store information in that object. I googled it and I can’t find how to code it. I could post the full code but I want to do some of the work myself. I saw some posts online where people were using code I have not learned yet so I’m confusing myself.

Answer 1

Well you need to have member variable in your Student class like :

String name;

then implement getter and setter :

public String getName() {
    return name;
}
public void setName(String aName) {
   name = aName;
}

and finally in your program :

Student s = new Student();
s.setName("Nicolas");

As this is the most basic stuff when it comes to OO programming, I’d really suggest you read some books and tutorial about Java.
