Suppose that you are going to create an object used to count the number of people in a room. We know that the number of people in the room can never be negative.

Create a RoomCounter class having three public methods: • addPerson—adds one person to the room • removePerson—removes one person from the room • getCount —returns the number of people in the room If removePerson would make the number of people less than zero, throw a NegativeCounterException.
