Answer to Question #67933 in Java | JSP | JSF for Simon Roberts

Question

Write a public instance method for the Garage class called addCustomer(),
which takes four arguments as in the following header:public void
addCustomer(String regNo, String name, String address, int
area)
and returns no value.
The method should create an instance of Customer and then add it to the map
referenced by the instance variable customers with regNo as the key.
Test your method in the OUWorkspace by creating an instance of Garage and
assigning it to a variable called aGarage. Then send addCustomer()
messages to the Garage object to add three customers as shown in the table
above. Inspect aGarage to confirm that the customers were added.
Save the statements from the OUWorkspace that you used to add the
customers (for example in the project’s README.txt file) for use later in this
question.
