Students have asked these similar questions
Is it possible to infer, from the constructor arguments, the types of some of the Book class's fields? Can you hazard a guess as to what its various fields are called?
Is there a way to stop people from messing with the class fields?
Just what are these "constructors" that you keep talking about? Why do we need Constructors, anyway?

- Create a public class Connections with a single public constructor that accepts a String. The String contains, in CSV format, a list of cities and other cities that they are connected to. So, for example, the input: Champaign,Chicago,St. Louis Chicago,Detroit,Milwaukee St. Louis,Champaign,Cincinnati Means that Champaign is connected to Chicago and St. Louis, and that Chicago is connected to Detroit and Milwaukee, and so on. Essentially the CSV serializes a directed graph, where the first item on each line is a node and the other items represent other nodes that it is connected to. This is one way of serializing a directed, unweighted graph. If the String passed to the constructor is null, throw an IllegalArgumentException. Make sure to trimall the Strings that you extract from the CSV. Your class should parse this String and provide a single instance method isConnected. isConnected accepts two Strings and returns true if the first city is connected to the second based on the graph…arrow_forwardHelp, I am making a elevator simulation using polymorphism.

Standard passengers have no special requirements.VIP: This type of passenger has a request percentage of 10%.
