You'll work on either workshop materials, unfinished programs, or one of
two longer assignments:
Making word ladders using queues,
pointers, classes, vectors, and reading files to construct
(minimal) word ladders like:
smart
start
stark
stack
slack
black
blank
bland
brand
braid
brain
Playing a dynamic game of
twenty questions where the user
can add to the knowledge of the program. This is somewhat of a
classic program, but uses several classes and some more
advanced object oriented concepts.
Group Activity
We'll meet as a group to discuss issues related to C++ and its use in
the AP program, to discuss strategies for conducting different kinds of
workshops on using C++ in AP courses, and to discuss object-based
programming and design. We'll also discuss any issues that people want
to pursue, issues and the agenda are left mostly to you.
