 * Create a Java application project, or open your previous one.
 * Add to your project (if it's not already there) the class '''Message''' exactly as defined in OOP Lab Task 1. You may copy it from your uploaded archive of the previous assignment on the Web-CAT.
-* To this class add a new method, '''getName''', without arguments, that returns only the name of the sender.
+* To this class add a new method, <span style="color:brown;font-weight: bold;font-family:'Lucida Console', monospace">getName</span>, without arguments, that returns only the name of the sender.
 * Add to the package '''labutil''' another class, named '''Inbox''', that encapsulates an array of Message objects and treats them as a queue of messages. The Inbox class fields are:

 * All fields are private. The queue is handled only through the public methods of this class.
 * Add to the Inbox class a constructor that instantiates the encapsulated array of Messages, whose length is given as the constructor's sole argument. This constructor sets also the head and the tail of the message queue.
-* Add a method, named <span style="font-family:'Lucida Console', monospace">add</span>, which does not return anything and has only one argument, a Message. This method adds the new message to the queue by setting the element at the tail to point to it. Then advances the tail to the next element of the array. If the queue is already full the message is not added and the method outputs "The inbox is full" on the screen.

 * The head and tail indexes wrap around to the first element of the array after they reach it's last element (the queue is implemented as a circular buffer).
-* The third method, named '''list''', does not change the queue at all and returns a string that is formatted in the following way. If the queue is empty the method returns the string "There are no messages in inbox". Otherwise the first line is "Inbox messages from:" followed by one line for each message in the inbox, starting from the oldest message down to the newest. The lines are numbered and on each line appears only the name of the sender of that message.
