Library Management System Pt.2

Overview

This repository continues the development of a Library Management System using JavaScript. In this version, you'll extend the basic system by adding functionalities for borrowing and returning books.

Task

1. Extend the Book Class:

   • Add a parameterized constructor to initialize the book’s title, author, year, borrower, and isBorrowed properties when creating a new book object.
   • Add two new methods:
     • borrowBook(borrowerName): Handles the borrowing process. Checks if the book is already borrowed. If not, it assigns the borrower and marks the book as borrowed.
     • returnBook(): Handles returning a borrowed book. Ensures the book can only be returned if it has been borrowed in the first place.

2. Update the Library Class:

   • Make sure the Library class interacts with the new borrow and return methods.

Features

• Set Book Properties: Set title, author, and year using the constructor when creating a book.
• Borrowing Books: Check if a book can be borrowed and mark it as borrowed if available.
• Returning Books: Check if a book is borrowed before returning it to the library.

3. Open the Code: Use your favorite code editor to start coding.

4. Extend the Book Class:

   • Define properties for title, author, year, borrower, and isBorrowed.
   • Implement methods to handle book borrowing and returning functionality.

5. Modify the Library Class:

   • Ensure the library can add books and handle borrowing/returning books through interaction with the Book class.

Good Luck!
