Java Program Development
Ch2 – First Half Program Design
Using your skills as an aspiring Java programmer design a program that utilizes the concepts that have been covered within the first part of Computer Programming II. Skills such as printing out statements on one line and multiple lines have been covered, using escape sequences, using variables, using string concatenation, using mathematical functions such as adding numbers together, the assignment statement all have been discussed and included within our Java program examples and Java program development activities.
The challenge is to design a program that utilizes all of the above mentioned concepts and also uses appropriate comments within the program. Below are the specifics and a handy checklist to allow you to verify what you have completed.
First choose a topic that will allow you to utilize all of the elements covered below. This assignment will resemble telling a story using the Java programming language. Example A Night At The BallPark or Shopping For That Perfect Vehicle
The Program will need to include the following elements:
_____ (18.75pts) A Title that is formatted to draw attention (items such as lines, *, - or other symbols around the title will help draw a user into the program)
_____(18.75pts) Print and Println statements
_____(18.75pts) 5 Java escape sequences used at least two times each
_____(18.75pts) String Concatenation (the + sign to combine multiple lines
______(18.75pts) Variables with assignment statements (5 Variables must be declared, assigned a value and used at least two times each within the program)
______(18.75pts) Mathematical functions (At least 5 mathematical functions must be included within program)
______(18.75pts) A picture or image must be created using keyboard characters, symbols, numbers, etc that relates to the topic of your Java based story the picture can be at the beginning, middle or end of your program. (Think back to your Initial’s Program)
______(18.75pts) Comments used within the code to help explain the overall purpose of major sections of code or purpose of the overall program)
Grading:
Each Item Above is Worth 18.75 Points each for a total of 150 points
