    Re: divisibility

    Why didn't they use 0 - 9 ASCII for the numbers 0 - 9? Seems unnecessarily confusing to me!

    Re: Accessing fields of a subclass

    Nevermind. I ended up writing the method for each subclass, and defining it as being an abstract method in the super class. This way I could refer to the method using an object from the superclass as...
