Square Area and Circle Area in Swift 5 and Swift 5.1

 

Examples on how to create a class Shape and then subclasses Square and Circle and how to use methods inheritance.

The examples contain methods to calculate the area for a Square and a Circle. 

 

import Cocoa


class ShapeRdp {
    var numberOfSides:Int = 0;
    var id:Int64
    var optionalDescription:String
    var name:String
    
    init(optionalDesc:String, name: String)  {
        self.id = Int64(Date().timeIntervalSince1970 * 1000)
        self.optionalDescription = optionalDesc;
        self.name = name;
    }
    
    func simpleDescription() -> String {
        return "A shape with so many sides: \(numberOfSides)";
    }
    
    func setSides(numberOfSides: Int)  {
        self.numberOfSides = numberOfSides;
    }
}

class Square:ShapeRdp {
    var sidelength:Double
    
    init(sideLength:Double, name:String) {
        self.sidelength = sideLength;
        super.init(optionalDesc: "Square",  name: name);
    }
    
    func area() -> Double {
        return sidelength * sidelength;
    }
}

class Circle:ShapeRdp {
    var radius:Double
    var pi:Double = 3.14;
    init(radius: Double, name: String) {
        self.radius = radius;
        super.init(optionalDesc: "Circle", name: name);
    }
    
    func calcArea() -> Double {
        return pow(radius,2) * pi;
    }
}

let myShape = Square(sideLength: 24.55 ,name: "Nina");
myShape.setSides(numberOfSides: 4);
print(myShape.numberOfSides);

let myCircle = Circle(radius: 0.5, name: "Kyrill");

print(myCircle.calcArea())
print(myCircle.simpleDescription())

 

Thank you.
