Computer Science

Computer Science, taught by Ms. Taricco, is where we learn to write and implement programs (primarily in Java) as well as understand fundamental concepts behind the basic functionality of these programs. We will also later on design and develop apps as part of a long-term project during the second semester.

Federal Tax Rate Program

This program was written to determine the exact tax an individual must pay based on various factors like income and marital status. Key concepts used during the implementation of the program included conditional logic and "if/else" statements.

Sieve of Eratosthenes

This program used static arrays to find all prime numbers up to any given limit, and reflects the logic used in the original sieve during the 3rd century B.C. Here, "for" loops and "if" statements were used in combination to help eliminate composite numbers in a given list of numbers while retaining the primes.
