Week 5 Objectives
- To play around and experiment with the different types in Java
- These types include…
- Primitive Types
- Int - represents signed 32-bit integer value
- Double - represents a double-precision 64-bit floating-point value
- Boolean - represents true or false values
- Long - represents a signed 64-bit integer value
- Short - represents a signed 16-bit value
- Float - represents a single-precision 32-bit floating-point value
- Char - represents a single Unicode character
- Non-primitive Types
- To create a GUI menu for CSA FRQs
- To decide the topic we will be teaching this tri (our plan is Boolean and If Statements, and if that’s already taken we will teach Writing Classes)
Week 5 Hacks
- Create/define a class in Java that demonstrates the use of primitive types, such as int, double, and boolean, as well as non primitive data types such as strings
- Become familiar with reference data types in Java, such as strings, arrays, and classes
- Become familiar with hybrid data types in Java, such as wrapper classes and enums
- Include comments that talk about how each data type choice is appropriate to the application
- Include a cell with casting
