Introduction to fundamental object-oriented programming concepts. A student of this course will learn the principles of programming, and in particular object-oriented programming principles. Programming principles and constructs, such as data types, common control flow structures, basic data structures, and console input/output will be presented. Students will also learn several key object-oriented principles, such as defining classes and methods and information hiding. We will use the Java programming language to learn and implement the basic programming and object-oriented principles described above. Students signing up for this course must have access to the Internet to complete required assignments. Glen Oaks' Library has computers connected to the Internet for those students who do not have access to the Internet either at work or home.
