The Mailbox Class

Exercise 11.1

In a new file mailbox-1.rb Write a class that has a name and emails attribute. Make it so that the these attributes can be populated through the initialize method (name being a string, and emails being an array of Email instances).

The following code

  1. class Email
  2.   # your class from the last exercise
  3. end
  5. class Mailbox
  6.   # fill in this class body
  7. end
  9. emails = [
  10.   Email.new("Homework this week", { :date => "2014-12-01", :from => "Ferdous" }),
  11.   Email.new("Keep on coding! :)", { :date => "2014-12-01", :from => "Dajana" }),
  12.   Email.new("Re: Homework this week", { :date => "2014-12-02", :from => "Ariane" })
  13. ]
  14. mailbox = Mailbox.new("Ruby Study Group", emails)
  16. mailbox.emails.each do |email|
  17.   puts "Date:    #{email.date}"
  18.   puts "From:    #{email.from}"
  19.   puts "Subject: #{email.subject}"
  20.   puts
  21. end

should then output the following:

  1. Date:    2014-12-01
  2. From:    Ferdous
  3. Subject: Homework this week
  5. Date:    2014-12-01
  6. From:    Dajana
  7. Subject: Keep on coding! :)
  9. Date:    2014-12-02
  10. From:    Arianne
  11. Subject: Re: Homework this week
