    Default Dont understand what to write.. :/

    any help is appreciated!

    This is for an assignment, its quite basic stuff as were new to it and i went through the practise stuff in the book so i thought id get it but im stuck whenn it comes to this work, Grr!

    ok so the questions are;
    "2.1 Add an Order class to your project to store the following information about an Order: the Order's reference number, the customer's name , a description and total cost. In addition, the class also stores the order's call-in time and the delivered time (all of type Time).

    2.2 Write a constructor which sets the order reference number, customer name, description, total cost and call-in time from suitable formal parameters. Call-in time should be represented by two formal parameters of type int which are passed as actual parameters to a Time constructor. The delivered time should initially be set to null."

    Im having problems with making this "Order" class, i get confused where the two classes mix :/

    this is some of the time class;
    public class Time
    {
        //fields
        private int hour;
     
        private int minute;
     
     
        //constructor
        public Time ()
        {
            hour = 0;
            minute = 0;
        }
     
       //method
    private void setHour(int newHour)
        {
            if ((newHour >= 0) & (newHour < 24)) {
                hour = newHour;
            }
            else{
            hour=0;
        }
    //##more methods down here##
    }
    and well heres what ivei done in the "Order" class which im supposed to be doing now
    public class Order
    {
        // 2.1 - fields
        private int orderNumber;
        private String customerName;
        private String description;
        private int totalCost;
        private Time callInTime;
        private Time deliveredTime;
     
        //2.2 - constructor
        public Order (int newOrderNumber, String newCustomerName, String newDescription, int newTotalCost )
        {
            orderNumber = newOrderNumber;
            customerName = newCustomerName;
            description = newDescription;
            totalCost = newTotalCost;
            callInTime = ;
            deliveredTime = ;
     
        }
    thanks for any help
