Submitted by Ori Rattner Grade 12 Student, Pikesville High School In AP computer science, our teacher, Mr. Taylor, puts our assignments up on BCPS One on a word doc. We can access from anywhere, complete anytime. In this class, we use a program called Eclipse. Eclipse is a text editor program that identifies errors in programs so that they can be de-bugged. All this is done in Java- the computer language. In this course, we learn the different aspects of coding using java. We start off basic and then learn more tools and so we can start doing more complex stuff. We wrote our programs to complete a task which we will revisit later in the year in order to improve upon them. I particularly liked an assignment which had allowed a user to enter mail package dimensions and then the computer program would determine whether it was too big to ship or not. I am excited to take this assignment to the next level by using real dimensions and testing it out. Having the device makes this work so much easier because we can be working on this at own pace since the device is always with us.
