project.
Due: Before class, Nov 18
Review Specifications
Review the specifications for the final
project.
Discussion Questions
Create a PREPARATION text file. (Can be
a PDF; definitely not a .doc, .docx, .odt, or .rtf file.) Answer the
following questions in that file. Clearly label which question you're
addressing.
- What are the main parts/steps/components that need to be completed to
complete the project? Try to be as specific and precise as possible. How much work
does each
part require?
(Approximate in terms of time or relative to the other steps.)
How many people should work on each part?
- How will your program handle the following use case:
"The
user starts the program, types 'fd 50' in the command window, and
sees the turtle move in the display window leaving a trail."
It should be clear from your description which objects are
responsible for completing each part of the task. Some of the
classes are given to you; others need to be added.
- What 3 extensions would you like to have in your final
application?
- Bring the above answers together into a plan
for how you would tackle implementing the project with your team.
What parts can be completed independently of the other parts?
What parts need to be completed before other parts?
- The parts of the project you're most interested in working on, in
ranked order.
- Any questions about the given code. (Ask these in class as well.)
Submission
In your turnin directory, create
a final directory. Copy
your PREPARATION file into that directory.
Alternatively, you can create a final directory in
your cs209 directory and run submitAssignment.sh final
to submit the assignment.
You can create/save the files using Eclipse remotely and run
the submitAssignment.sh script, adapting the directions
from assignment 6.
Grading
Clear descriptions, articulation of answers to above questions.
Evidence that you thought about the questions and reviewed the
code.
