Hints

1. Create the Alien Class

• The constructor does not have a return type and has the same name as the class.
• A common convention for classes is using names in PascalCase.

2. The hit Function

• Remember the invariant: health points can't be negative.

3. The is_alive Function

• life points at 0 is the only 'dead' condition.

4. The teleport Function

• Member variables can be updated by any function of the class.

5. The collision_detection Function

• All public member variables can be accessed from outside the class.
