I know I correctly inputting in the def the balance and name but I am stumped on how to allow it to recognize a negative balance and how to supply the account number.

___init__: The constructor will take an account number, an owner name, and a balance, and
create a new Account. An account number must be supplied, but owner name should default to
'unknown' and balance should default to 0 if values are not given. If the balance given is negative, the
constructor should display an error message, and not create the account.

Expert Solution
Step 1

A constructor is a method that is used to initialize objects. It is called when an object of a class is created.

Characteristics of Constructors:

 

  • Constructors cannot be private.
  • A constructor cannot be abstract, static, final.
  • A constructor can be overloaded.
  • Constructors cannot return a value.
  • Constructors do not have a return type; not even void.
  • An abstract class can have the constructor.
  • The Constructor's name must be similar to that of the class name inside which it resides.
