Introduction to Computer Science

Basic syntax is...

• the rules for correct spelling, grammar and punctuation in a programming language

• the rules for an object to perform an action

• extra information passed into a method to modify what the method does

• a type of data that represents text

Sequence (in programming) is...

• the order of the objects

• the pacing of a method

• the order of the commands in a program

An object is a character or thing that can perform actions

• True

• False

The actions an object performs are called?

• arguments

• parantheses

• methods

• jumps

Parentheses look like:

• :

• ()

• ;

• <

A step-by-step set of instructions for completing a task

• Loop

• Algorithm

• String

• Variable

A programming structure used to repeat actions without the player needing to write the same lines of code over and over.

• Variable

• Merry-go-round

• Property

• Loop

What is a "loop"?

• a variable that contain data

• repeats a block of code while a certain condition is true

An way to store information for later use.

For example:

enemy = hero.findNearestEnemy()

• Loop

• Value

• Variable

• String

A type of data that represents text.

For example:

food = "chicken wings"

• Method

• Argument

• Object

• String
