> I think it depends on the terms of the contract! If the contract
stipulates "validate SSN" - then that's one thing. If it stipulates
"display SSN", then that's another.
So, for example, I have a validateSSN() method and a displaySSN() method
available to me. I should only call the displaySSN() method AFTER I
have called the validateSSN() method. Otherwise, I could end up
displaying "8-23-1234" which is not a valid SSN.

enough to define the proper contract(s) and distribute them among
objects and methods. :) Challenging ...
Very challenging. <think> Do I write more code to eliminate a bunch of
try/catch blocks or not. That is the question. </think>
Thanks
