Computer Science 2017-2018: Arrays and ArrayLists (February & March)

Computer Science 2017-2018:
Arrays and ArrayLists
(February & March)

LAB 7 ScreenCasts


LAB07 was all about static arrays and dynamic arraylists! We started with a discussion of Strings and arrays of characters. Then we compared and contrasted the use of arrays vs. arraylists writing a ROT13 class 3 different ways. The rest of this lab was about practice using for() loops, while() loops and for each loops with arrays!

We are finishing up this lab talking about ArrayLists vs static arrays as well as 1D vs 2D arrays aka vectors vs matrices and traversal algorithms. See Polygon vs Roman classes. We are currently working on a TicTacToe game.

We typically don't do labs 10 and 11 as we've been talking about Inheritance and Polymorphism. We may have a couple of take homes instead. So, we'll finish the course with Lab 18 on Recursion the week after Easter Break leaving a good amount of review time.

Computer Science 2017-2018: Iteration (January)

Computer Science 2017-2018:
Iteration 
(January)

LAB 6 ScreenCast


LAB06 was all about Iteration using for() and while() loops! We had fun applications making a multi-round game out of our Rock-Papper-Scissors game playing against the computer. We also played with Heron's Method and Newton's Method for finding roots and radicals numerically. We played around with convergence tables and limits. We even found tables of very large powers and Fibonacci sequence terms!

(December)

LAB 5 ScreenCast


LAB05 was all about boolean operators, conditional statements and predicate methods! We touched on loops a bit in Processing and Strings as arrays. Fun was had by all when we started the unit with Rock Paper Scissors Lizzard Spock!
