1. CMSC 150 INTRODUCTION TO COMPUTING CS 150: Wed 11 Jan 2012

2. Quote of the Day “A smartphone today has more computing power than all of NASA did when it put a man on the moon in 1969.” - Paul Otellini, Intel CEO Quoted from Michael J. Miller’s ForwardThinking blog

3. Homework, due Wednesday 1/18  p. 39 - 40: 2, 3, 7, 9  p. 127 - 129: 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11  p. 130: #4 and 5 (can be done on pencil and paper or as a BlueJ project - use project name hw1_ as your project name, and be sure to put your name in the comment at the top of the.java file if you do this in BlueJ)  Bonus problem: p. 128: #6

8. RAM vs. Hard Drive

9. Your Program’s State Your.java source code file is saved to disk

10. Your Program’s State When you compile, the.class binary file is also saved to disk

11. Your Program’s State When you run the program, the Java VM loads the binary version into RAM…

12. Your Program’s State so that the instructions can be executed on the CPU

13. Let’s Move Into BlueJ…
