Java/Python Coding Summer Tech Camp

Java Game Coding

Students will be introduced to object-oriented programming and elements of the Java language while learning to code their text-based RPG (roleplaying game). No programming experience is necessary, but familiarity with everyday tasks using a computer operating system (text-editing and understanding directory structures) and keyboarding is required. Bring a USB drive to save your games on the last day.
