Here is my second attempt making a S3-class.
But something is wrong with the deposit.account() ? Thanks for any help.
I expect this output:
[1] 0
Martin
Saldo is: 100
but I get this:
[1] 100
Martin
Saldo is: 0
Regards
Martin
account <- function(owner = NULL) {
if (is.null(owner)) stop("Owner can't be NULL")
value <- list(owner = owner, saldo = 0)
attr(value, "class") <- "account"
value
}
balance <- function(obj) { UseMethod("balance") }
balance.account <- function(obj) {
obj$saldo
}
deposit <- function(obj, amount) { UseMethod("deposit") }
deposit.account <- function(obj, amount) {
obj$saldo <- obj$saldo + amount
}
print.account <- function(obj) {
cat(obj$owner, "\n")
cat("Saldo is: ", obj$saldo, "\n")
}
A1 <- account("Martin")
deposit(A1, 100)
balance(A1)
print(A1)
