// attempt 1 of 2
// Codecademy throws the following text:
// "The generatePaycheck() function should logs(sic) to the console the hoursWorked multiplied by the hourlyWage . 
// It should then set the hoursWorked to 0 ."
class Employee {
  constructor(name, hourlyWage) {
    this._name = name;
    this._hourlyWage = hourlyWage;
    this._hoursWorked = 0;
  }

  get name() {
    return this._name;
  }
  get hourlyWage() {
    return this._hourlyWage;
  }
  get hoursWorked() {
    return this._hoursWorked;
  }
  set hoursWorked(hoursWorked) {
    this._hoursWorked = hoursWorked
  }

  logHours (num) {
    this._hoursWorked += num;
  }

  generatePaycheck() {
  let payCheck = this._hoursWorked * this._hourlyWage;
  return console.log(payCheck);
  hoursWorked = 0;
  }
  
};

//attempt 2; fixed the return on generatePaycheck and potential variable scoping problem with hoursWorked
// sadly it returns nothing at all, and they don't show you the solution 
// or what tests you're failing, it just doesn't let you proceed with the quiz
// so I am still not sure whay it isn't working!


class Employee {
  constructor(name, hourlyWage) {
    this._name = name;
    this._hourlyWage = hourlyWage;
    this._hoursWorked = 0;
  }

  get name() {

  }

  generatePaycheck() {
  let payCheck = this._hoursWorked * this._hourlyWage;
  console.log(payCheck);
  hoursWorked = 0;
  }
};

// correct answer
generatePaycheck() {
let payCheck = this.hoursWorked * this.hourlyWage; //using getters to get the values
console.log(payCheck);
this.hoursWorked = 0; //using the setter to set the value
}
