...a friend sends you his plans for the evening thus:
Beer myBeer = new Beer();
myBeer.setBeerGlassSize("large");
myBeer.setStrength("8%");
myBeer.drink();while (myBeer.getOwnersDrunkenFactor()!="collapsed") {
myBeer.refill();
}myBeer.eject();

So do bushes, sheep, goats, LEGO mounds and lazyboy chairs. I get the jello bit now, thanks to David, but I still don't get what is so special about a Jewish princess? regards, Paul Watson Bluegrass South Africa Brian Welsch wrote: "blah blah blah, maybe a potato?" while translating my Afrikaans.

There's a bug in your code :) Chris Maunder wrote: myBeer.drink();while (myBeer.getOwnersDrunkenFactor()!="collapsed") { myBeer.refill();} If you want to ever achieve the "collapsed" state, you'd need to modify it:
while( myBeer.getOwnersDrunkenFactor() != collapsed ) {
myBeer.drink();
if( myBeer.getContents() == "empty" ) {
myBeer.refill();
}

Those set methods look worryingly like a java programmer's way of setting fields :~
I noticed that too! Assuming it's Java, did you spot the bug in this line?
while (myBeer.getOwnersDrunkenFactor()!="collapsed")
Then again, an infinite loop may be just fine. :-) Regards, Alvaro

Thanks for explaining that Roger ... I should never have gone down that road though, I was doomed from the moment I tried to indicate I liked my women at least 'alive' I'm not really that shallow, unfortunately for me - intelligence, humour, 'wit' acutally all count up there as 'must haves' as well .. talk about heading to be the worlds oldest bachelor, Im well on the way ..
