A method displays the current time once the Clock is created using either its default no-arg constructor or another constructor that defines a custom time setting. When the Clock object's tick() method is called, the second value increments by one, possibly changing the hour and minute values on the clock. We need two listings for this example—one that creates the Clocks, holds their values, and defines their methods, and another that instantiates ...
