    how to separate 2 constructors in the same Square class
    You need to decide on these questions:
    What is each constructor supposed to do?
    What arguments need to be passed to each constructor?

    When you have answers to those questions, you should be able to write the code for the constructors and the code to call each constructor.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.

    So yay, fixed it right before i went to work.

    basically i kept making an error with
    this.color = "color";

    instead what i should of used was
    this.color = color;


    So all of that for "". As you can probably tell i was rather annoyed with myself. Would you be able to check my code over one last time to see if everything is okay (i promise i know i must be a pain in "something")

    What happens when you compile and execute the program? Does it do what it is supposed to do?

    Yes, it makes a basic basic one window house. I hate it.

    Next thing is to make another method which allows the user to change the roof color, and to add another window.

    That's how a lot of programs progress. They start simple and have features added.

    Hey man. Norm has been doing a great job with helping you.

    With the constructors, you are using what is known as method overloading. You are creating multiple constructors within the same class. In order for the compiler to decide which one to use it looks at the line which calls it. It looks at the parameters for which that line is looking for.

    i.e.
    method();
    method(int);

    the first one will look for method with no arguments and the second one will look for one with 1 int argument, if none is found then an exception is thrown.

    in your case, you are basically using:

    method(int);
    method(int);

    which will always call the same method.

    that is method overloading in a nutshell.
