In the Laboratory: The Circle Class

The purpose of this laboratory project is to give you practice designing and implementing a Java class definition. The exercise is patterned after the Java program development described in Chapter 1. The objectives of this project are

• To give practice designing a simple Java class to represent a geometric circle.
• To convert the design into a working Java program.
• To compile, run, and test the Java program.

The following sections provide a step-by-step framework for completing this exercise.
