Exercise 2: Expired or Not?
In this exercise, you have to compare the expiry dates of two products and, based on that, suggest which brand's product should be bought.
We'll cover the following
Problem Statement
In this exercise, you are given a class Product
. You need to implement the following tasks:
Task 1
Define the constructor
which takes and initializes the following properties:
-
name
: the name of the product. -
price
the price of the product. -
amount
: the amount of product available in inventory. -
madeIn
: the country in which the product is made in. -
expiryDate
: the expiry date of the product. -
brand
: the name of the brand that made the product.
Task 2
Define a static
function checkExpiry(product1,product2)
. Here’s what it should do:
-
It should take two product objects of the same type but from different brands as parameters.
-
It should compare their
expiryDate
with the current date. -
Based on the difference of the
expiryDate
from the current date it should return which brand’s product to buy, i.e., return thebrand
property of that product.-
It should return
Neither
if both products have expired. -
It should return
brand
property ofproduct1
ifproduct2
has expired, butproduct1
hasn’t. -
It should return
brand
property ofproduct2
ifproduct1
has expired, butproduct2
hasn’t. -
If neither of the products has expired it should compute the difference of both of their expiry dates from the current date and return the
brand
of the product whose difference is greater. -
It should return
Either
if both products have the same expiry date.
