1. Introduction to Programming using Java
Day 7 and 8
Review
Robocode Robots!

2. Review Classes and Objects What 2 things an object has data methods
public and private
methods have return types
one object may inherit from another

3. Instantiating an Object
2 ways
String bob = “this is a string”;
String bob = new String(“this is a string”);
Pig wilbur;
Pig wilbur = new Pig();

4. New Concepts
packages
imports

5. Robocode
let's take a look at some java code

6. The Java API

7. Robocode API

8. Task 7 Start the Robocode IDE Create your own Robocode Robot
set the color of its bullets
set the color of its body
start a battle

9. Day 8 Review
import
package
Robocode and API:

10. Robocode API

11. New Concepts Jar files Algorithms
an algorithm is a step-by-step procedure for doing something

12. The “Getting Ready for School” Algorithm
1. wake up
2. get dressed
3. eat breakfast
4. brush teeth
5. assemble school items like lunch, homework, etc
6. leave for school

13. “Drive in a square” algorithm
1. drive 100 units
2. turn right 90 degrees
3. drive 100 units
4. turn right 90 degrees
5. drive 100 units
6. turn right 90 degrees
7. drive 100 units

14. Task 8 Part 1: make your robocode robot drive in a square
Part 2: make up your own algorithm to have your robocode robot “do nothing” until it is hit 5 times by a bullet
Part 3: write the program for Part 2!
