All Implemented Interfaces:

Critiqueable

public class Streaming
extends java.lang.Object
implements Critiqueable

A mutable class that represents a Streaming item that might be subject to critique in our game. As such, it implements the Critiqueable interface.

A Streaming object has a title (String) and a number of fans (int) as well as an internal hype level (int) that will be used as part of the item's overall "Media Hype" computation, and an internal counter for how many victories it has had (int) since the last time internal hype level increased.

inform

public boolean inform(Universe.Outcomes outcome)

This method is sent the "outcome" of a critique "battle" that takes place in the game being written by our theoretical other GUI team. There are several possible Outcomes defined in the Universe. Based on that outcome, this method need to increment internal hype level if and only if the number of critique victories since the last time the internal hype was increased has reached the Universe's THRESHOLD. A critique victory is defined as an outcome of FRESH being passed into this method. However, it reduces the numberOfFans by 1 if the outcome was a loss (ie: an outcome of ROTTEN was passed into this method. A tie (ie: an outcome of NEUTRAL) has no impact on any stord values and the method simply returns false. Again, a critique victory is defined as an outcome of FRESH and a critique loss is defined as an outcome of ROTTEN.

Specified by:

inform in interface Critiqueable

Parameters:

outcome - the outcome of the critique in which this Streaming item was involved

Returns:

true if the outcome conveyed caused the internal hype level to go up
