Adding a Method Definition

•class Entry {

• …

/** return this if its name matches keyName; otherwise return null indicating failure */

• Entry match(String keyName) {

if (keyName.equals(this.name)) return this;
else return null

• }

•}

Finger Exercise: Add this method definition to your Entry class, compile it, and evaluate:

Entry e = new Entry("Corky", "DH 3104", "x 6042");
e.match("Corky")

• e.match("Matthias")
