Naming convention

Java naming convention

Getters and setters

• Getters (get, is)
  • Does not alter the object in any way; it is constant
  • Can be called multiple times, and in any order
  • Returns a consistent result

• Setters (set)
  • May or may not alter the object
  • Only affects the object that has the setter; it does not persist anywhere else
  • Can be called multiple times, and in any order
