Defining Classes with initialize

Exercise Objectives:

• To get practice and build muscle memory writing class declarations
• To get practice instantiating objects of your own design

Directions

1. Write out class definitions outlined below:

• a Shirt class
  • upon instantiation (meaning the creation of a new object of the Shirt class), the class's initialize method should take 3 arguments:
    • size
    • color
    • text
    • ^^^^^^within your initialize method, set these arguments to instance variables of the same name
  • instantiate a new shirt, pearl_jam_t, which is extra-large, a nicely faded black, and says "Yield Tour 1998"
  • instantiate another new shirt, hipster_plaid which is size medium, the color red, says "NO LOGO" on the back
  • instantiate another new shirt, david_beckham_jersey which is large, white, and has the text "Beckham"

1. a Concert class - upon instantiation, the Concert class's initialize method should take 4 arguments:
   • band
   • city
   • venue
   • date - instantiate a new concert, best_night_of_life, that represents Built to Spill's performance at the Metro in Chicago on May 8th, 2005. - instantiate a new concert, embarrassing_first_concert, which took place in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in like 1998 at the Marcus Amphitheater. The band? Sugar Ray.
