Bank Accounts

We will be working with the concept of bank accounts in order to explore more object-oriented code as well as a few other new topics.

Baseline Setup

1. This is an individual project.
2. Clone the project master repo and create a new branch with your initials.
3. Push your branch so it will show in the list of branches on the project master.
4. Fork the project master.
5. Clone the forked repo: $ git clone [YOUR FORKED REPO URL]
6. Switch to your branch by doing git checkout [YOUR BRANCH NAME]. Do not work on the master branch.
7. cd into the dir create:d $ cd BankAccounts
8. Run git status to verify the branch you are on
9. Run git remote -v to verify the folder you are in corresponds to the fork you have created.

Wave 1

Create a Bank module which will contain your Account class and any future bank account logic.

Create an Account class which should have the following functionality:

• A new account should be created with an ID and an initial balance
• Should have a withdraw method that accepts a single parameter which represents the amount of money that will be withdrawn. This method should return the updated account balance.
• Should have a deposit method that accepts a single parameter which represents the amount of money that will be deposited. This method should return the updated account balance.
• Should be able to access the current balance of an account at any time.

Error handling

• A new account cannot be created with initial negative balance - this will raise an ArgumentError (Google this)
• The withdraw method does not allow the account to go negative - Will output a warning message and return the original un-modified balance

Optional:

• Create an Owner class which will store information about those who own the Accounts.
  • This should have info like name and address and any other identifying information that an account owner would have.
• Add an owner property to each Account to track information about who owns the account.
  • The Account can be created with an owner, OR you can create a method that will add the owner after the Account has already been created.

Wave 2

CSV Files!

• Update the Account class to be able to handle all of these fields from the CSV file used as input.
  • For example, manually choose the data from the first line of the CSV file and ensure you can create a new instance of your Account using that data
• Add the following class methods to your existing Account class
  • self.all - returns a collection of Account instances, representing all of the Accounts described in the CSV. See below for the CSV file specifications
  • self.find(id) - returns an instance of Account where the value of the id field in the CSV matches the passed parameter

CSV Data File

Bank::Account

The data, in order in the CSV, consists of:
ID - (Fixnum) a unique identifier for that Account
Balance - (Fixnum) the account balance amount, in cents (i.e., 150 would be $1.50)
OpenDate - (Datetime) when the account was opened

Optional:

• Implement the optional requirement from Wave 1

• Add the following class methods to your existing Owner class

  • self.all - returns a collection of Owner instances, representing all of the Owners described in the CSV. See below for the CSV file specifications
  • self.find(id) - returns an instance of Owner where the value of the id field in the CSV matches the passed parameter

  Bank::Owner
  The data, in order in the CSV, consists of:
  ID - (Fixnum) a unique identifier for that Owner
  Last Name - (String) the owner's last name
  First Name - (String) the owner's first name
  Street Addess - (String) the owner's street address
  City - (String) the owner's city
  State - (String) the owner's state

  To create the relationship between the accounts and the owners use the account_owners CSV file. The data for this file, in order in the CSV, consists of: Account ID - (Fixnum) a unique identifier corresponding to an account Owner ID - (Fixnum) a unique identifier corresponding to an owner
