There are several things you can look for on a website to help you figure out if the information is reliable. The first thing you should evaluate is the audience that the website is intended for. Is it intended for academics? School children? The general public?

The next thing you should look at is the author of the website. Is the author identified? Is the author an expert in their field? Can you establish the author's credibility? Is the author affiliated to an academic institution or credible organisation?

Look at the accuracy of the website. Check for spelling errors, proper grammar, and well-written text. Are there any sources cited? Are those sources credible?

You should also check to see when the information was published. Is the information up to date? Are all of the links up to date and functioning?

There is one last thing you can look at, and this is the domain of the website. Domains like .edu and .gov are more credible than .com or .net domains.

File account. java (see previous exercise) contains a definition for a simple bank account class with methods to withdraw, deposit, get the balance and account number, and return a string representation. note that the constructor for this class creates a random account number. save this class to your directory and study it to see how it works. then write the following additional code: 1. suppose the bank wants to keep track of how many accounts exist. a. declare a private static integer variable numaccounts to hold this value. like all instance and static variables, it will be initialized (to 0, since itâ€™s an int) automatically. b. add code to the constructor to increment this variable every time an account is created. c. add a static method getnumaccounts that returns the total number of accounts. think about why this method should be static - its information is not related to any particular account. d. file testaccounts1.java contains a simple program that creates the specified number of bank accounts then uses the getnumaccounts method to find how many accounts were created. save it to your directory, then use it to test your modified account class.
