Get Set Methods
Within the rabbit class, add the following methods to set and get ProbalilityOfDeathOtherCauses:
1 public double GetProbabilityOfDeathOtherCauses()
2 {
3 return ProbabilityOfDeathOtherCauses;
4 }
5
6 public void setProbabilityOfDeathOtherCauses(double value)
7 {
8 ProbabilityOfDeathOtherCauses=value;
9 }
Alter with age
the code below is contained within the Warren Class, it is the part of the program responsible for ageing each rabbit. I have commented the line added below. 0.5 is 5%:
1 private void AgeRabbits(bool ShowDetail)
2 {
3 int DeathCount = 0;
4 for (int r = 0; r < RabbitCount; r++)
5 {
6 Rabbits[r].CalculateNewAge();
7 // Added the line below
8 Rabbits[r].setProbabilityOfDeathOtherCauses(Rabbits[r].GetProbabilityOfDeathOtherCauses() + .05);
9
10 if (Rabbits[r].CheckIfDead())
11 {
12 Rabbits[r] = null;
13 DeathCount++;
14 }
15 }
16 CompressRabbitList(DeathCount);
17 if (ShowDetail)
18 {
19 Console.WriteLine(" " + DeathCount + " rabbits die of old age.");
20 }
21 }
Displaying data
You need to add a line to the inspect method of the Rabbit class to display the value. You can therefore check that it works:
1 public override void Inspect()
2 {
3 base.Inspect();
4 Console.Write("Rep rate " + Math.Round(ReproductionRate, 1) + " ");
5 //Added this line
6 Console.WriteLine("PDBOC: " + GetProbabilityOfDeathOtherCauses());
7 Console.WriteLine("Gender " + Gender + " ");
8 }
