Basic Functions Exercise

Each module in this course will contain exercises in which you are given a specification for a contract without being given specific instructions on how to build the contract. You must use what you've learned to figure out the best solution on your own!

The following exercise asks you to create a contract that adheres to the following stated specifications.

Contract

Create a contract called BasicMath. It should not inherit from any other contracts and does not need a constructor. It should have the following two functions:

Adder

A function called adder. It must:

• Accept two uint arguments, called _a and _b
• Return a uint sum and a bool error
• If _a + _b does not overflow, it should return the sum and an error of false
• If _a + _b overflows, it should return 0 as the sum, and an error of true

Subtractor

A function called subtractor. It must:

• Accept two uint arguments, called _a and _b
• Return a uint difference and a bool error
• If _a - _b does not underflow, it should return the difference and an error of false
• If _a - _b underflows, it should return 0 as the difference, and an error of true
