Computer Science is a class taught by Mrs. Taricco. In Computer Science, we learn to analyze and design different software and efficiently design and write programs. Additionally, we learn multiple languages, primarily Java, to develop applications that benefit society.
Federal Tax Rate was a program we wrote to determine how much tax someone must pay based on marital status and income. This assignment was used to help us learn about program input and conditions.
Line Art was a program where we wrote code to replicate an image of line art given to us. This assignment was used to help us learn about loops while implementing AWT Graphics.
Knowing what to wear can be difficult, particularly if you have a disability that makes it more difficult to process information. Choosing what to wear in a day involves knowing what the weather is, understanding what the weather forecast means, remembering what clothes are available, planning what to wear, and choosing what articles are appropriate for the day.
Our audience includes those who face significant intellectual challenges that could inhibit their ability to make thoughtful decisions about their outfit based on daily weather conditions. Additionally, the app focuses on those involved in the Seven Hills program, designed to support adults and families who may face challenges, including disabilities or poverty. The main goal of Seven Hills is to help people become more independent, and this aim has also become one of our goals.
Our app, WeatherWear, promotes independence among individuals who face significant challenges that may hinder their ability to read and interpret the weather. It pulls the weather from a Weather API and presents it to the user pictorially. The weather data is also run through our algorithm, which generates a list of clothing and accessories the user should wear and bring for the day. The items are displayed pictorially on the second page and can be viewed by scrolling. Our algorithm considers the weather 8 hours upon opening, so the user will be prepared for the entirety of the day. Feel free to check out the proposal for more information!
