WHITELIST

DESCRIPTION

The whitelist contract allows users to add their addresses to a whitelist. Only non-whitelisted addresses can be added, and the number of whitelisted addresses cannot exceed the maximum limit. The contract provides a function to add an address to the whitelist and another function to check if an address is already whitelisted. It offers a basic mechanism for managing whitelisted addresses.

FUNCTIONS

  1. addAddressToWhitelist() public: This function allows the sender (caller) to add their address to the whitelist. It performs the following steps:

  • Checks if the sender's address is not already whitelisted.

  • It checks if the maximum number of whitelisted addresses (maxWhitelistedAddresses) has not been reached.

  • Adds the sender's address to the whitelistedAddresses mapping by setting it to true.

  • Increments the numAddressesWhitelisted variable.

  1. checkAddress(address user) public view returns(bool): This function checks whether a given address is whitelisted or not. It takes an address as input and returns a boolean value indicating whether the address is whitelisted (true) or not (false).

  2. numAddressesWhitelisted()

  3. maxWhitelistedAddresses()
