setters and getters issue

Question

Why is this bringing a runtime error?

public class Vehicle {
private String color;
private int age;

//getter for age

public int getAge(){
return age;
}

//setter
public void setAge(int age){
this.age = age;
}
// Getter
public String getColor() {
return color;
}

// Setter
public void setColor(String c){
this.color = c;
}

}

class Program {
public static void main(String[ ] args) {
Vehicle v1 = new Vehicle();
v1.setColor("green");
System.out.println(v1.getColor());

Vehicle ae = new Vehicle();
ae.setAge (12);

System.out.println("the age is " +ae.getAge);
}
}

Answer 1

@smike_designer!!🤓 oh i just saw that, in your case you actually are not calling the function, you have forgetten the paranthesis, it should be ae.getAge() and not ae.getAge

Answer 2

//System.out.println("the age is " +ae.getAge); // ()
System.out.println("the age is " +ae.getAge() );
