An OO model of frogs. This beautiful design appeared in the 2004 427 exam.
Design notes
- This design models the lifecycles of Frogs.
- A Frog begins life as an Egg, grows into a Tadpole and then an AdultFrog.
- A FrogBrain belongs to a Frog and manages its behaviour.
- There is one Biologist, Igor, who sometimes moves Frogs around. Igor has been known to fry their legs in white wine.
- Toads don’t have the same lifecycle as Frogs, but they look and act a lot like Frogs.
- Toads eat AdultFrogs.
Design Critique
This design is perfect. It cannot be faulted.
Broken heuristics
- 'This is a good start, but needs some explanation of how the rules are broken here. Also needs a note about this conribution on the talk page. --Wal 22:44, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
