Expecting that the Meter
class will
become a real meter, you should follow good programming practice by
specifying an interface:
public interface MeterInterface { // Setters: public abstract void setValue (int valueToBeShownByDial) ; public abstract void setTitle (String meterLabel) ; // Getters: public int getValueAtCoordinates (int x, int y) ; }
The getValueAtCoordinates
method is to return the value that would
place the meter's dial nearest the given coordinates; it is put to use in
Segment 780.
