Project 30: GridWorld 2

Post date: Feb 01, 2011 6:7:3 AM

GridWorld case study, week 2

Over three weeks, students complete parts 1-5 of the study. Answer all questions presented in the case study as well as create every program modification required in the study.

For this project we will stick "close to the book." This means downloading much of the book, the accompanying GridWorld library, and the Eclipse projects that house the files that you will work on. Here is a list:

    • Part 3 Narrative, which will also be printed for you

    • Eclipse archive GridWorldWeek2.zip containing project GridWorldPart3 with

        • Java files for classes Jumper, JumperRunner, JumperRunnerReqE, JumperTest, Set3, and Set5

        • Text files Set3.txt, Set4.txt, Set5.txt, Set6.txt, and GroupActivity.txt

    • Additional instructions for reference, also printed

Start this project as soon as you can. We will download, configure, and test the materials as quickly as possible in class so that you can work both inside and out. This part includes a group activity. Make your part of that activity a priority so that your group is not delayed. Target dates are the usual Saturday and then Friday for rough and final drafts, respectively. That means March 19 March 25 and April 1 because of spring break.

Exhibits of this project are published.
