This site represents work that I have done in support of my efforts to learn to program in the CS1 course at SUNY Oswego during the Fall 2019 semester. The materials will be temporally organized for the most part. Links to external sites that pertain to computer programming, problem solving, Java, Web development, and related matters will be placed after the personally created artifacts.

PersonSpecification code | Person code | PersonDemo1 code + PersonDemo1 demo | PersonDemo2 code + PersonDemo2 demo
Lab12 "Grapheme to Color Synesthesia" This lab features a program that simulates grapheme to color synesthesia. It takes the form of an interpreter. Two parallel arrays are featured in the grapheme to color mapping. Strings and arrays cooperatively perform the essential elements of the computation. The simple painter class easily supports the graphics processing. GraphemeToColorSynesthesia code + GraphemeToColorSynesthesiaDemo
Programming Assignment 5: Three List Interpreters" Three separate Java programs for this assignment, all pertaining to the storage and manipulation of lists. The first two will feature arrays. the last one will feature an ArrayList object. NumberList code + NumberList demo | WordList code + WordList demo | WordList code + WordList demo
Programming Assignment 6: Chromesthesia" Lab 13: Chromesthesia.Write three variants of a Java Main Class called Chromestesia, and three corresponding variants of a Java Class called Pitch. This process will reinforce knowledge of incremental programming, class definition and use, and array processing, all within the context of a program that features a simple musical knowledge representation in the service of modeling a fascinating cognitive phenomenon – that of chromesthesia.
