I thought it would require interpolation. If it doesn't I don't know what format the question wants.
class BankAccount
attr_reader :name
def initialize(name)
@name = name
@transactions = []
add_transaction("Beginning Balance", 0)
end
def balance
balance = 0
@transactions.each do |transaction|
balance += transaction[:amount]
end
balance
end
def debit(description, amount)
add_transaction(description, -amount)
end
def credit(description, amount)
add_transaction(description, amount)
end
def add_transaction(description, amount)
@transactions.push(description: description, amount: amount)
end
def to_s
puts "Name: #{name}, Balance: #{balance}"
end
end
