/*
  Author  : Michael Robinson
  Program : the_toStringObjectMain.java
  Purpose : Here we learn to use the Java toString method 
            toString is very easy to implement and very useful
            This is the main program where we create objects and
            pass data so that those objects can process and 
            return the formatted data using their toString method.
            We also show what happens when we use the objects'
            default toString method.
