Program Notes

Note that when a constructor has a single argument, you can use the following form when initializing a class object:

// a syntax for initializing a class object when// using a constructor with one argumentStonewt incognito = 275;

This is equivalent to the other two forms shown earlier:

// standard syntax forms for initializing class objectsStonewt incognito(275);Stonewt incognito = Stonewt(275);

However, the last two forms can also be used with constructors that have multiple arguments.

Next, note the following two assignments from Listing 11.18:

incognito = 276.8;taft = 325;

The first of these assignments uses the constructor with a type double argument to convert 276.8 to a type Stonewt value. This sets the pounds member of
