The successful student (and my students are always successful) will have a solid understanding of Java and be able to write significant programs. They will understand polymorphism (and love it). They will understand recursion, maybe even tail recursion. They will have a sense of the operating system. They will be prepared to take most sophomore and junior level college classes.

숙제 제공
In the first unit, homework will be light, under an hour per class. Once we begin programming in unit two, that will go up to about two hours of programming homework per class hour. There will be occasional short readings.

In unit one, there will be no outside sources. In later units, we will be looking at the Java website for reference. We may read short articles on a variety of computer topics. No book is necessary for this course. Most students will want to purchase a good book for reference, however. I will have suggestions.
