Q: Storm Watcher (JavaScript class task)

+1 vote

Write a JS class that represents a meteorological station reading. Each reading has an id, temperature, humidity, pressure and windSpeed properties which are all numbers. The ID is auto assigned and autoincremented sequentially for each instance, while the rest of the properties are set trough the constructor.

In addition, the class must include a toString() method that returns a formatted string with a summary of the information kept inside the record and a weather status. The status is either 'Not stormy' or 'Stormy', depending on the readings. For the weather to be stormy, all of these conditions must be met:

  • temperature bellow 20
  • pressure bellow 700 OR above 900
  • windSpeed above 25

For any other conditions, the weather is not stormy. See the examples for more formatting details. Note each property is on a new line.

Input / Output:

Only valid data will be passed to the constructor. The output is expected as a string, returned by the toString() method of your class.

Depending on how you structure your code, submit just the class definition as is, or wrapped in an IIFE that returns the class definition.

Examples:

Sample Input 1:
let record1 = new Record(32, 66, 760, 12);
console.log(record1.toString());
 
Output 1:
Reading ID: 0
Temperature: 32*C
Relative Humidity: 66%
Pressure: 760hpa
Wind Speed: 12m/s
Weather: Not stormy


Sample Input 2:
let record2 = new Record(10, 40, 680, 30);
console.log(record2.toString());
 
Output 2:
Reading ID: 1
Temperature: 10*C
Relative Humidity: 40%
Pressure: 680hpa
Wind Speed: 30m/s
Weather: Stormy

Here is my solution:

let Record = (function () {
    let closureId = 0;

    return class Record {
        constructor(temperature, humidity, pressure, windSpeed) {
            this.temperature = Number(temperature);
            this.humidity = Number(humidity);
            this.pressure = Number(pressure);
            this.windSpeed = Number(windSpeed);
            this.id = closureId++;
        }

        getStatus() {
            if (this.temperature < 20 && (this.pressure < 700 || this.pressure > 900) && this.windSpeed > 25) {
                return 'Stormy';
            }
            return 'Not stormy';
        }

        toString() {
            let result = '';
            result += `Reading ID: ${this.id}\n`;
            result += `Temperature: ${this.temperature}*C\n`;
            result += `Relative Humidity: ${this.humidity}%\n`;
            result += `Pressure: ${this.pressure}hpa\n`;
            result += `Wind Speed: ${this.windSpeed}m/s\n`;
            result += `Weather: ${this.getStatus()}`;
            return result;
        }
    }
})();

let record1 = new Record(32, 66, 760, 12);
console.log(record1.toString());
let record2 = new Record(10, 40, 680, 30);
console.log(record2.toString());

The closureId is indepedend because of the IIFE.
