  Parking Garage Manager

Inspiration

I wanted to build a project with a real life application to it that I could create with my new knowledge of java. I wanted to put my learning to the test and create this project solo.

What it does

The actual program itself would act as a meter/ tole system that stores information regarding the parking garage such as parking spots, the types of cars, what cars are allowed in which spots, the cost of parking for each car, etc.

How we built it

I built it on replit using java.

Challenges we ran into

Some challenges that I ran into were using different classes to store information regarding each vehicle and garage. The problem here was that I created getMethods to return specific information when prompted, but I was having trouble interpreting and solving the errors that troubled me.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

I am proud of my ability to use scanner and if statements to allow the user to interact with the program and vice versa. I like that there are multiple ways that the program will respond depending on what the user inputs because it makes the program feel more human.

What we learned

I learned that you can use || in your if statements and this will act as "or". This taught me that I could use || in my if statements to make sure a user's input won't be ignored or denied because they forget to capitalize a letter or vice versa.

What's next for Parking Garage Manager

I want to go back and try to implement my failed garage and vehicle class so I can easily store the information of each vehicle and garage, in addition to being able to use this information more efficiently.
