 ### Exercise 2.2
 * What value is returned if you check the machine’s balance after it has printed a ticket?
+	* The value is 0.
 
 ### Exercise 2.3
 * Experiment with inserting different amounts of money before printing tickets.
 	* Do you notice anything strange about the machine’s behavior?
+		* Yes, the machine does not behave correctly if too much or too little money is inserted.
 	* What happens if you insert too much money into the machine – do you receive any refund?
+		* You do not receive a refund or more than one ticket. The balance just returns to zero once a ticket is printed.
 	* What happens if you do not insert enough and then try to print a ticket?
+		* The machine does not recognize that not enough money was entered. It tells you your total is whatever amount was entered and prints the ticket. Then balance returns to zero.
 
 ### Exercise 2.4
 * Try to obtain a good understanding of a ticket machine’s behavior by interacting with it on the object bench before we start looking at how the `TicketMachine` class is implemented in the next section.

 ### Exercise 2.9
 * From your earlier experimentation with the ticket machine objects within BlueJ you can probably remember the names of some of the methods – `printTicket`, for instance.
 	* Look at the class definition in Code 2.1 and use this knowledge, along with the additional information about ordering we have given you, to try to make a list of the names of the fields, constructors, and methods in the `TicketMachine` class.
+		* fields - price, balance, total, ticketNumber

+		* methods - getPrice(),  insertMoney(), getBalance(), printTicket(), getTicketNumber(), calculateTotal(), incrementTicketNumber(), printTicket()
 	* Hint: There is only one constructor in the class.
