Motivation:We need a means of initializing the attributes of a new object (or

“instance”) when it is created.

Constructors

Example:

public Box (int iNewLength, int

iNewWidth, int iNewHeight) {

setLength (iNewLength);

setWidth (iNewWidth);

setHeight (iNewHeight);

} // of constructor

Means:“Constructor methods” that are invoked automatically upon

“instantiation” (creation) of new object.
