I am taking computer science at Mass Academy. The teacher for this class is Ms. Lang. We have covered a lot of topics this year in CS. We began by learning the components of a computer and what they do. Next we learned basic html and css. Then we moved on and began working with the programming language Scheme. Using Scheme, we did several things, starting with basic computation. Soon we covered lists, structures, recursion, iteration, drawing, and eventually we were creating games. Considering that I began the year with no prior knowledge of any of this, I have learned a lot in computer science this year.
This is the lab that I still don't understand, the fractal lab. We used Scheme to draw three fractals: a unique fractal (the circle one), the Koch snowflake, and the Koch antisnowflake.
The labs I'm most proud of are the pong lab(we recreated Pong with two players) and the final lab in which we designed and coded a game that used the physics concepts of energy, momentum, and pendulum motion.
This was my favorite lab. We made a game in which the player moves around a rat to try to get the cheese.
This was my least favorite lab. It used mouse events to give draw a line from the center of the window (the origin) to the point that was clicked and displayed the coordinates of the point and the distance from the origin to that point.
This website is a creative work from this class.
