This course is designed to introduce the fundamental concepts required to program a computer. In particular, the notions of top-down structured programming, selection, and repetition are discussed in the context of the Java programming language. In addition, the relatively new concept of Object Oriented Programming (OOP) will provide a common thread throughout the semester. As we go along, I will attempt to summarize the activities of our class and post them here. That way, if you happen to miss a class or want to review what we did, you can find some help here.
