got to print out a square shape on console. The class square should contain two constructors and an instance property Side that has get and set accessors for private data. The first constructor is a default constructor and takes no arguments and another takes a side length as a value.

Please assist me as i am new to this properties concept and i want to get the problem done.

Thanks

public class Square
{
    private int m_Side; // m_Side is a member variable with the value of side
    public Square() // Default Constructor
    {
      m_Side = 0;
    }
    public Square(int SideValue) // Constructor which takes side as argument
    {
      m_Side = SideValue;
    }
    public int Side
    {
      get
        {
          return m_Side;
        }
      set
        {
          if(value>0)
            m_Side = value;
          else
            m_Side = 0;
        }
    }
}

Hope this helps!



It is not how much we do,
but how much love we put in the doing.

Now the next step i wanted to do is write a test application to print a asterix of square on the console by basically passing the refernece of the square functions we have defined earlier in our previous source code..

How i can do that .. Plzz help

Thanks in advance

This is the way i am going but couldnt get the solution ..

Hey ,

I got to print out a square on a console. In which class Square should contain two constructors and an instance property, Side that has a get and set accessors for private data. The first constructor that takes no arguments and another takes a side length as a value.
Then define a test application to test the Square functions which are been defined.

The way i am going through this problem is :

using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
    public class Square
    {
        public int m_Side; // m_Side is a member variable with the value of side
        public Square() // Default Constructor
        {
            m_Side = 0;
        }
        public Square(int SideValue) // Constructor which takes side as argument
        {
            m_Side = SideValue;
        }
        public int Side
        {
            get
            {
                return m_Side;
            }
            set
            {
                if(value>0)
                    m_Side = value;
                else
                    m_Side = 0;
            }
        }
    }

}

The test appliation i define is :

using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for SquareTest.
    /// </summary>
    public class SquareTest
    {

        static void Main ()
        {
            Console.WriteLine( "Enter Side Value ");

            Square S1= new Square();
            S1.m_Side=Int32.Parse( Console.ReadLine());
            if ( S1.m_Side>0)
            {
                for ( int S1=0; S1<m_Side; S1++)
                {
                  for ( int S1=0; S<m_Side; S1++)
                    {
                        System.Console.WriteLine +="*";
                    }
                System.Console.WriteLine +="\n";
                }
            }
        }
    }
}



The test application doesnt works as there are loads of errors..

Please update me with a solution as i am new to C# and couldn't figure it out as how to get through with this problem.


Cheers!!

Full program is given below which will draw a square on Console based on size of side.

using System;

namespace ConsoleApplication2
{
    public class Square
    {
        private int m_Side; // m_Side is a member variable with the value of side
        public Square() // Default Constructor
        {
            m_Side = 0;
        }
        public Square(int SideValue) // Constructor which takes side as argument
        {
            m_Side = SideValue;
        }
        public int Side
        {
            get
            {
                return m_Side;
            }
            set
            {
                if(value>0)
                    m_Side = value;
                else
                    m_Side = 0;
            }
        }

        public void DrawSqure()
        {
            if (m_Side>0)
            {
                for ( int S1=0; S1<m_Side; S1++)
                {
                    for ( int S2=0; S2<m_Side; S2++)
                    {
                        System.Console.Write("*");
                    }
                    System.Console.WriteLine("");
                }
            }
        }


        /// <summary>
        /// The main entry point for the application.
        /// </summary>
        [STAThread]
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            Console.WriteLine( "Enter Side Value ");
            Square s1 = new Square ();
            int side =Int32.Parse( Console.ReadLine());
            s1.Side = side;
            s1.DrawSqure ();
            Console.ReadLine ();
        }
    }
}



It is not how much we do,
but how much love we put in the doing.
