Virtual Showroom: Car Inventory (JavaBasics_Task_228_V0.1)

📖 Description

In a professional automotive system, objects must be self-describing. This project models a Car entity that encapsulates both its specifications (brand and production year) and its presentation logic. By moving the display logic into the Car class itself, we ensure that every vehicle "knows" how to present its details to a potential customer, maintaining high cohesion within the object.

📋 Requirements Compliance

• Model Definition: Created a Car class with carBrand and productionYear fields.
• Behavior Encapsulation: Implemented the displayDetails() method inside the Car class.
• Universal Initialization: Used a service class to instantiate and populate car data.
• Naming Conventions: Followed PascalCase for classes and camelCase for methods/variables.
• Clean Architecture: Separated the application entry point from data management.

🚀 Architectural Stack

• Java 8+ (Object State and Behavior, SRP)

🏗️ Implementation Details

The displayDetails() method is an instance method. It doesn't need parameters because it has direct access to the carBrand and productionYear fields of the specific object it belongs to. This is a fundamental concept of OOP: data and the methods that work with that data stay together.

📋 Expected result

Brand: Toyota, production year: 2023
