What's Going On? January 28th through February 1st

App Development 1

This week, we will continue our look at actions and outlets.  Students will practice connecting labels
and buttons to the code in order to make something happen.  Once we master this, we will move into working with ImageViews.  These will provide us with a way to display a picture in our app.  We will finish off the week by creating our "flashlight" app.



App Development 2

This week, students will work on our partner project "High-Low Guessing Game" in order to

AP Computer Science A

This week, students will wrap up our programming project #7 on arrays and begin on lab: Pictures. 
This lab will give students the opportunity to work with someone else's code on a larger-scale project that involves manipulating images.
