Create constructor, getters and setters. If one is to set the initial balance of an account as a negative value in a setter or a constructor, remind the user about the error and set it as 0. Create a CheckingAccountDemo class, and create a main method in which Ask for the name, account number, and initial balance for one account from the keyboard input. With these input values as arguments in a call to the constructor, create a CheckingAccount object. Print the summary of this account that includes information on the name, account number, and balance by calling the getters.arrow_forward
