1. a small object oriented programming language.
Introduction to Jeroo
a small object oriented programming language.

2. A category or a class of an animal that can do things….
The Jeroo Program simulates how to create and use Java objects to perform tasks….
While having fun!
What is a Jeroo?
A category or a class of an animal that can do things….

3. Jeroo’s World - Santong Island
Located in an uninhabited land in the South Pacific Ocean
A Jeroo is similar to the Wallabies in Austrailia

4. Behaviors/Methods of a Jeroo Object

5. Jeroo Behaviors (methods) hop() toss() pick() plant() turn()
Attibutes (facts associated with aJeroo object
similar to a wallaby
poor swimmers
careless
has a pouch
telepathic

6. What is a Program?

7. A set of instructions for a computer

8. A Computer Program is written in a programming language.
Java
C++
C# Visual Basic
Python

9. Source Code
Set of instructions written by a programmer in a programming language.

10. Source Code: hop(); pick(); plant();

11. A computer program requires a compiler to translate a program as a whole from one form into another.

12. the 2-Step process...

13. A compiler translates the source code to an intermediate language
An intermediate language is the language of an abstract machine to aid in the analysis of computer programs
A compiler translates the source code to an intermediate language

14. Step 2
The Interpreter translates the intermediate language to Binary (1’s and 0’s)

15. An Interepreter translates a program into Machine Language

16. Every Program starts with a Plan called an algorithm.
Problem: how will I get a Jeroo object to move forward three steps?
hop();
