Lab 7B - Classes Part IV: Validate Godzilla

This lab is due by Tuesday, April 21, 2020, 11:59 PM.
As with all labs you may, and are encouraged, to pair program a solution to this lab. If you choose to pair program a solution, be sure that you individually understand how to generate the correct solution.


Concepts


Focus on expanding the Godzilla class from Lab7A.


Suggestion: Use NotePad or WordPad


Consider using NotePad or WordPad on your computer to write your code for this lab. Once you feel good about what you've written, then copy the code into your project. Doing this will help you see where you might make mistakes on the exam!

You should write a main.cpp that tests each feature of your class works as expected. You will need to submit your class declaration file, your class definition file, and your main.cpp file for this lab.


Ensure A Valid Godilla Object


Currently, both the parameterized constructor and setters allow any value for to be entered for the health and power of Godzilla. We want to make sure that the values that are set for each property are within specified criteria. Add private helper functions to perform this validation since we will do the same validation in our parameterized constructor and setters. Add the following validation functions:

There should be no change in main, but run the program and test values that are both valid and invalid.

An example output is below:

Enter the name: Metalzilla
Enter the health: 95
Enter the power: 30
Metalzilla (P: 15) - H: 95
Godzilla (P: 20) - H: 80
Godzilla attacks Metalzilla.
Metalzilla attacks Godzilla.
Metalzilla attacks Godzilla.
Metalzilla attacks Godzilla.
Metalzilla attacks Godzilla.
Metalzilla attacks Godzilla.
Metalzilla attacks Godzilla.
Godzilla has been vanquished.

Lab Submission



You will submit your solution to this lab with the rest of Set7. Detailed instructions for doing this are posted in Assignment 7.
