CS00b: Appplications in Processing

Class Description:

This class reviews CS00a Java basics and mathematical concepts via making applications and games. Students will also learn about coordinate transformation, curves and other canvas features in Processing. Students create several projects throughout the semester. Trigonometry and physics optionally covered.

Prerequisites:

CS00a or permission of instructor.

Students will have an independent project.

Weekly Problem Sets

Our homework is done online

Included for Online Classes

A Virtual Machine is a remote desktop that allows students to connect to it from anywhere. We provide VMs so that students use it during classes and to work on homework.

Office hours are led by our highly qualified teaching assistants. It is an easy and free way to get immediate feeback on your code. Our homework is difficult - office hours can help you overcome obstacles and develop a stronger understanding of the material!

We provide pre-recorded Audio Lectures to allow for students to self-study, practice, and learn CS.

We provide a online, interactive, Java & Algorithms textbook to allow for students to self-study, practice, and learn CS.

We provide recordings of our classes for if a student misses or needs to re-listen to a class.

The parent account dashboard allows for parents to track their student's progress in the class.
