AP Computer Science Principles taught interactively

The session focused on Java fundamentals including creating a class, understanding the main method, and implementing for loops. The Student practiced writing code and debugging errors with guidance. They worked on exercises involving printing numbers within a specific range using for loops and different increments.

The Student reviewed for loops, including single and nested loops, in Java. The Student practiced predicting the output of different for loop examples and constructing loops to print patterns. The next session will continue practicing with for loops and mixing in other concepts.

The session focused on using nested for loops in programming to generate patterns. The Student practiced creating different patterns using asterisks and numbers. They were assigned further practice problems involving different patterns for the next session.

The Student and Tutor reviewed a Java assignment calculating weekly average tax withholding, addressed feedback on a prior submission focusing on pseudo code and output. They updated the pseudo code and Java code for consistency. The Student then uploaded the revised assignment to the Git repository and submitted it.

The session covered Python data types: integers, floats, strings, booleans, and lists. The student learned how to create variables, understand data type identification in Python, and use the `type()` function. The student was assigned homework and the next class will cover type casting and conditional statements.

The student and tutor reviewed C++ code snippets to determine program outputs and function call behavior. The session focused on tracing code execution, completing function definitions, and identifying valid function structures. The student practiced predicting outputs based on given input and conditional logic.
