ReadingMaterial

//
//Design and implement a set of classes that define various types of reading
//material.
//

//Start by defining a parent class called ReadingMaterial.
class ReadingMaterial{

//This class should containthe following instance variables:
    //• title - a String containing the title of the reading material
    //• author - a String containing the author of reading material
    //• numPages - an integer containing the number of pages in the reading material

    String title;
    String author;
    int numPages;

//All three variables should be initialized with values passed into the constructor.
    public ReadingMaterial(String title,String author, int numPages){
        this.title = title;
        this.author = author;
        this.numPages = numPages;
    }

//ReadingMaterial should also have two functions:
    //
    //• isLong - takes no parameters and returns a boolean.
    //
    public boolean isLong(){
        //
        //If the book has more than 250 pages, this function should return true
        //
        if (numPages > 250){
            return true;
        }
        //
        //Otherwise it returns false.
        //
        else {
            return false;
        }
    }

    //
    //• summary - takes no parameters and returns nothing. This function should
    //            print out information about the book in the form "[title], written by [author]".
    public String summary(){
        return title + ", written by " + author;
    }
}



//Three classes should inherit from Reading Material: Novel, GraphicNovel, and Article.

    // Novel - class should have the following specifications:
class Novel extends ReadingMaterial{

    //
    //• An instance variable called characters that contains an array of Strings
    //  with the names of the principle characters in the novel (this variable should
    //  be initialized with a value passed into the constructor, along with the novel's
    //  title, author, and number of pages).
    //
    String [] characters;
    public Novel(String title, String author, int numPages, String [] characters){
        super(title,author,numPages);
        this.characters = characters;
    }

    //
    //• A function called listCharacters which prints out the name of all the primary
    //  characters in the order that they are listed, each on their own line.
    //
    public void listCharacters(String [] array){
        for(int i=0; i<characters.length; i++){
            System.out.println(characters[i]);
        }
    }
}

    // Article class - should have the following specifications:
class Article extends ReadingMaterial{
        String publication;
    //
    //• A String instance variable called publication that indicates which publication
    //  the article was published in. This should be initialized in the constructor.
    //
    public Article(String title, String author, int numPages, String publication){
        super(title,author,numPages);
        this.publication = publication;
    }

    //
    //• An overridden version of the summary function that prints out information about
    //  the article in the folowing form: "[title], written by [author], published in [publication]"
    //
    //@overridden
    public String summary(){
        return title + ", written by " + author + ", published in " + publication;
    }
}

    // GraphicNovel - class should inherit directly from the Novel class and have the following specifications:
class GraphicNovel extends ReadingMaterial{
    //
    //• A String instance variable called illustrator that contains the
    //  name of the person who illustrated the Graphic Novel.
    //
    String illustrator;
    //(This variable should be initialized with a value passed into the constructor, along with the novel's
    //  title, author, and number of pages, and main characters.)
    //
    public GraphicNovel(String title, String author, int numPages, String illustrator){
        super(title,author,numPages);
        this.illustrator = illustrator;
    }
    //• An overridden version of the summary function that prints out information about
    //  the book in the following form: "[title], written by [author], illustrated by [illustrator]."
    //
    //@overridden
    public String summary(){
        return title + ", written by " + author + ", illustrated by " + illustrator;
    }
}

    // Driver class - Make one of each object:
public class Driver {
    public static void main (String[] args){

        //
        //• A Novel, harryPotter, with the title Harry Potter, author JK Rowling, 303 pages,

        //• An Article, pc, with the title The Social Meaning of the Personal Computer, author
        //  Bryan Pfaffenberger, 10 pages, and the publication Anthropological Quarterly.
        //
