Computer Science, taught by Ms. Tarrico, aligns closely with the AP Computer Science A curriculum. It's a project-based class, and some of the biggest projects we get to complete throughout the year include this website, completing mini-labs using Java, and creating and designing an app that can be used to help someone in our community.
One of the mini-labs we completed to learn Java was a stars lab in which we programmed 10 randomly sized and located stars to appear on the screen when the program was run. I added a fun little addendum in which the stars also got a different colour. Take a look at what the finished product looked like, or click here to view the code!
Another one of the mini-labs that we completed was a line art lab. It was cool to work on such a mathematical concept, and even though I thought it would be really difficult, it was actually relatively easy. As an added bonus, it looked really good! Click here to view the code!
