Create a new java class called WordPrint and copy the following code into your program. Add the necessary components to complete the code. Demonstrat for teacher check.

Sample output

/*An anagram is a word or a phrase made by transposing the letters of another word or phrase; for example, "parliament" is an anagram of "partial men," and "software" is an anagram of "swear oft." Write a program that figures out whether one string is an anagram of another string. The program should ignore white space and punctuation.

Java Ternary Operator - a shorthand for the if then else statement

minVal = (a < b) ? a : b;

Section 5 Lesson 2: Control Statements Vocabulary:
- A post-test loop that executes an unknown number of times until a condition is met, but always executes the first time through the loop.
- A pre-test loop that uses an iterator to keep track of how many times a loop will execute.
- A keyword used to skip over the remaining code in a loop and return program control to the beginning of the loop to execute again.
- A pre-test loop that executes an unknown number of times until a condition is met.
- A keyword used to terminate a loop from executing before the loop condition is met.

Complete Section 5 Lesson 2: Control Statements slides
Complete Section 5 Lesson 2: Control Statements  questions and show them to your instructor for teacher check.
Complete work on the Section 5 Lesson 2: Control Statements practice on school loop.
Section 5.2 Coding - show your programs to your instructor for teacher check:
1. Message Decoder - you must use only one println to print out the decoded message.
4. Anagram - hint sampleString.indexOf( characterX ) will return a -1 if the characterX is NOT found in sampelString. You will need to use a loop to pull out each character in the first word and see if it is in the second word.
Complete Section 5 Lesson 2: Control Statements project. Demonstrate for teacher check.

After you complete section 5 complete the Section 5 quiz and show your results to your instructor for teacher check.

 

Homework

Install Eclipse on your home computer if you would like to be able to work on your java at home.

 

What

In this lesson, you will learn how to:
•Recognize the correct general form of a class
• Create an object of a class
• Describe object references
• Create methods that compile with no errors
• Return a value from a method
• Use parameters in a method

 

Why

Class templates are the foundation of the Java language. Understanding how to create a class with various methods will be essential to becoming a good Java programmer. Knowing how to instantiate an object and compare it to other objects is critical to learning to use and work with Java data types.

 

How

By completing the slides, quiz and practice exercises.
