what error do you get with a compareTo method?

[divine1200]

--what would happen if you had an input of java MyDriver "candy apple red" candy apple red ?

public class MyDriver {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Comparable t1 = new Truffle(args[0]);

Comparable t2 = new MooseMunch(args[1]);

if (t1.compareTo(t2.toString()) < 0)

System.out.println(t1.toString());

else if (t1.compareTo(t2.toString()) > 0)

System.out.println(t2.toString());

else

System.out.println("1st = " + t1.toString() +

" : 2nd = " + t2.toString());

} // main

} // MyDriver

How can we know as long as you have not posted the code for Truffle
and MooseMunch ?

Public class Truffle implements Comparable {

private String flavor;

public Truffle (String flavor) {

this.flavor = flavor;

}

public int compareTo(Object o) {

return this.flavor.compareTo((String) o);

}

public String toString() {

return this.flavor;

}

} // Truffle

public class MooseMunch implements Comparable {

private String color;

public MooseMunch (String color) {

this.color = color;

}

public int compareTo(Object o) {

return this.color.compareTo((String) o);

}

public String toString() {

return this.color;

}

} // MooseMunch
