AP CompSci A 2018-2019: What Is An Array? (March)

AP CompSci A 2018-2019:
What Is An Array?
(March)

LAB07 ScreenCasts



This month we continued LAB07 which was all about 1D and 2D static and dynamic arrays. We started by using static 1D array of ints to implement the ROT13 algorithm. Then we used a 1D arraylist of Point Objects to code the Shoelace Algorithm. We are now working with 1D and 2D static arrays of ints to make a Roman Math class! Finally, we will try to generate every possible starting position from Chess960 using the Random class and mixing arrays!

BTW, we're loving our new cs50.io, aka c9.io, ide from the Amazon Cloud (AWS)! Don't forget about the Processing IDE! We just started using OpenProcessing online as they've just added Processing.js which is more compatible with Processing's IDE. The default mode is P5.js (javascript) but we switch to Processing.js (java) and all is well! So, we're computing in the cloud even when we use Processing! IDK, is OpenProcessing is on AWS or the Google Compute Platform (GCP)?
