Students explore the structure of a String and discover the IndexOutOfBoundsException. Students …
Students explore the structure of a String and discover the IndexOutOfBoundsException. Students learn about text segmentation and use the indexOf() and substring() methods to implement algorithms to break text into words or sentences and apply natural language processing techniques. This lesson is aligned to CSTA standards.
Students explore the functionality of the compareTo() method then write an algorithm …
Students explore the functionality of the compareTo() method then write an algorithm to sort a list of Strings in alphabetical order. Students implement their algorithms in Java and practice using the compareTo() method to determine if one String comes before another and to sort a list of Strings in alphabetical order. This lesson is aligned to CSTA standards.
Students combine their knowledge of standard algorithms and Strings to write an …
Students combine their knowledge of standard algorithms and Strings to write an algorithm to check if a String is a palindrome. Students implement their algorithm in Java, then apply standard algorithms to traverse Strings find if one or more substrings has a particular property or to determine the number of substrings that meet specific criteria. This lesson is aligned to CSTA standards.
Students explore the issues and impacts resulting from open source software bugs. …
