Did you have a question?
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
x and y are the co-ordinates of upper left corner and height and width are given as above. It suppose to return perimeter of the rectangle. I could n't find where to start? I know the formula to get Perimeter = 2(height + width) but what do I do with it's coordinate x and y? It should be done with methods so I layout the code structure as you see above. Please give me some ideas on this.
--- Update ---
Yes, I was typing it. It should be up by now.
The x,y are the location of the rectangle. They are not used in computing the perimeter.what do I do with it's coordinate x and y
