AP CompSci A 2018-2019: OOP & Data Types (October)

AP CompSci A 2018-2019:
OOP &
Data Types
(October)

LAB03+LAB04 ScreenCasts



LAB03 was all about Abstraction and Encapsulation! We started learning Object Oriented Programming (OOP) in earnest. We created our very own classes from scratch for the very first time complete with Constructor, Accessor and Mutator methods. 

LAB04 is all about Data Types. We talked about the difference between a primitive variable and an Object variable. When using primitives, we compared double vs float as well as int vs long types.

BTW, we're loving our new c9.io ide from the Amazon Cloud! Don't forget out Processing IDE!
