Page 286, para 1: In this class, I defined only a string to demonstrate the usability of the abstract class:
public Movie(String sMovieType){
this.movieType = sMovieType;
}
Should be
public Movie(Id idMovieId){
this.movieId = idMovieId;
}
Page 285, last para: Like any other class, we give the class a name:
private String movieType = '';
Should be
private Id movieId = null;
