Instantiate object with mutable state

Reimplement the Greeter class so that the 'whom' property or data member remains private but is mutable, and is provided with getter and setter methods. Invoke the setter to change the greetee, invoke 'greet', then use the getter in displaying the line, "I have just greeted {whom}.".

For example, if the greetee is changed to 'Tommy' using the setter, the 'greet' method would display:

Hello, Tommy!

The getter would then be used to display the line:

I have just greeted Tommy.
DiskEdit
groovy
class Greeter {
def whom
def greet() { println "Hello, $whom!" }
}

greeter = new Greeter(whom:"world"); greeter.greet()

greeter.whom = 'Tommy'; greeter.greet()
println "I have just greeted $greeter.whom"
