Solar System

Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment.

Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
What was the purpose of the initialize method in your class?	It initialize all local variables for the class
Describe an instance variable you used and what you used it for.	I used @Age, that is the age for our solar system (in earth years) passed into the class SolarSystem. It was used to calculate the local age for a given planet via the method local_age.
Describe what the difference would be if your SolarSystem used an Array vs a Hash.	If one would have use a hash instead of an array, the keys in the hash could represent the Planet objects. In this case an array is used and a method is created to return the Planet object of interest.
Do you feel like you used consistent indentation throughout your code?	Yes

Good job re-working Planet#initialize to take a hash.

Nicely done.

I'd like you to pay close attention to what you name things (variables, methods, classes, etc.) as we go forward. planet_object doesn't really give a hit for what this method does.

Since a method typically does some action, a verb-phrase is usually a good choice. Something like lookup_by_name would be good here.
