Welcome to AP Computer Science A. If you are a student in the class, the first thing you need to do (and which we should have done in class) is set up your GitHub account.
Once you have a GitHub account, click “Log in to GitHub” below to proceed.
If you don’t have a GitHub account yet, please create one and then log in here for further instructions.
Congratulations! You have successfully connected this app to GitHub. However you are not yet a member of the GitHub organization for this class, something Mr. Seibel needs to set up for you.
This is your GitHub profile URL:
Click the clipboard icon to copy it and then submit it at this form so he can add you.
Congratulations! You have successfully connected this app to GitHub. And it looks like you have an invitation to join the GitHub organization for this class. You need to accept that invitation before you can proceed. The invite should be sent to whatever email you used when you created your GitHub account.
I see you are logged into GitHub and a member of the berkeley-high-cs GitHub organization. However there seems to have been some problem finishing the setup for your account. Please let Mr. Seibel know.
This is a tool for the AP Computer Science A class at Berkeley High School. It is intended to provide a simple environment for experimenting with Javascript without all the complexities of a full development environment such as ReplIt or Glitch which we may use later in the year.
It is also designed to take advantage of the browser’s ability to run Javascript natively. It does not need access to a server to run code making in extremely responsive even if the Wifi is flaking out.
Finally, under the covers it is saving work to a GitHub repository in a very simplified workflow that does not depend on immediately learning any git commands. Code written in this environment for each assignment is saved to a directory and branch specific to that assignment each time it is saved. Thus when the assignment is done, it is easy to go to GitHub and create a PR containing just the work on that assignment which can then be commented on and worked on further before it is turned in and merged to main.
You're all set! You don't need to worry about this yet but we have successfully created a GitHub repository for your work:
You can get to it any time by clicking on your GitHub username at the top-right of the screen.
Write a recursive method that takes a String argument
and returns the length of the string without calling the
length() method. You may, however, use the
isEmpty() method defined in the
String class to determine whether a string is empty,
i.e. "". Remember, recursive means no
for or while loops. Think about your base
case (what is the smallest problem) and then think about how to
recurse toward that base case and how to combine the answer you get
from the recursive calls with what you know in the current call.
Write a recursive method that takes a String argument
and returns a count of the number of "x"s it contains.
As before, remember that recursive means no for or
while
loops. Think about your base case (what is the smallest problem) and
then think about how to recurse toward that base case and how to
combine the answer you get from the recursive calls with what you
know in the current call.
