    includes maxbalance.
    */
     
     
    public void deposit(int amount)
    {
    if ( amount >= 0 )
    balance = balance + amount;
    else
    balance = balance;
     
    if (balance >= maxBalance)

    When posting code, make sure you use the code or highlight tags. I added them for you this time, but please be more mindful in the future.

    Anyway, this isn't a homework service. What have you tried? How would you do this by hand, without a computer?

    balance = balance;
    Totally pointless, get rid of it.
    maxBalance = maxBalance;
    Ditto.

    I'm confused. You managed to write the deposit and maxBalance code but cannot write the withdrawal and minBalance code. They are almost identical.
