Why aren't my variables using the input value

For a project I have to use a constructor to set default values for a rectangle height and width and also be able to input numbers. however when I input the program continues to use default values any way to get it to only use default values when there is no input?

package geometry;
// file name Rectangle.java
/**
 *
 * @author 12484
 */
public class Rectangle {

 // **********************instance variables (properties)
 private double myWidth;
 private double myLength;
// ********************************* constructors
 // default constructor

 public Rectangle() {
  myWidth = 1;
  myLength = 1;
 }
 // "other" constructor

 public Rectangle (double width, double length) {
  myWidth = width;
  myLength = length;
 }

 // ********************************* accessor methods
 public double getWidth() {
  return myWidth;
 }

 public double getLength() {
  return myLength;
 }

 // ********************************* modifier methods
 public void setWidth(double width) {
  myWidth = width;
 }

 public void setLength(double length) {
  myLength = length;
 }

 // ********************************* interesting methods
 public double computeArea() {
  getLength();
  getWidth();
  double area = Math.pow(getLength(), getWidth());
  return area;
 }

 public double computePerimeter() {
  getLength();
  getWidth();
  double perimeter = Double.sum(getLength(), getWidth());
  return perimeter;
 }
}


package geometry;
// filename Rectest.java
public class Rectest {
    public static void main(String[]args){
        Rectangle len = new Rectangle();
        Rectangle wid = new Rectangle();
        Rectangle a = new Rectangle();
        len.setLength(5.2);
        wid.setWidth(7.5);
        System.out.println(a.computeArea());
    }
}

default values are 1 for length and 1 for width

>Solution :

len,wid and a are all different objects(rectangles in this case) with their own instance variables(width and length).

What you want to do is create a Rectangle object, set its length and width and then execute the computeArea on that object.

public class Rectest {
    public static void main(String[]args){
        Rectangle a = new Rectangle();
        a.setLength(5.2);
        a.setWidth(7.5);
        System.out.println(a.computeArea());
    }
}
