Parking Ticket Program
Description
This program uses OOP aggregation (composition) concept to design classes to represent Parking Ticket object.Each ticket object includes data members representing the illegal parked minutes, fine, car information, officer information, and date information.
The program defines Car, Officer, MyDate, ParkingMeter, and Ticket classes.
The Ticket class incorporates the aggregation technique to includes the objects of Car, Officer, and MyDate as data members.
This problem was originally presented as an exercise in Starting out with Java 4th Edition book.
