3,981 PointsSetting the traditional property
I modified the sub-class slightly and made the traditional property a part of the constructor. My thought was for a larger project using stevenJ.dance(true);
the meaning of true
could get obfuscated.
'use strict';
class Person {
dance() {
const dances = [
'waltz',
'tango',
'mambo',
'foxtrot'
];
console.log(`${this.name} is doing the ${dances[Math.floor(Math.random() * dances.length)]}!`);
}
constructor({ name, age, eyeColor = 'brown' } = {}) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.eyeColor = eyeColor;
}
}
class Student extends Person {
dance() {
if(this.traditional) {
super.dance();
return;
} else {
const dances = [
'lyrical',
'tap',
'ballet',
'jazz'
];
console.log(`${this.name} is doing the ${dances[Math.floor(Math.random() * dances.length)]}!`);
}
}
constructor({ name, age, interestLevel = 5 } = {} ) {
super({ name, age });
this.interestLevel = interestLevel;
this.grades = new Map;
this.traditional = true;
}
}
let stevenJ = new Student({ name: 'Steven', age: 22 });
stevenJ.traditional = false;
stevenJ.dance();
console.log(stevenJ.interestLevel);
