  1. Programming games Examples. Classwork: work and show something of your final project. Homework: (finish…)

  2. States capitals game • Demonstrate

  3. States capitals • This could be countries. • Find a map. Divide it up into individual instances. NOTE: don't change the origin/registration point of any state. So most states will have origin NOT on/in the state. • Set up parallel arrays holding • State name • Capital name • neighbors

  4. States capitals • Use radio buttons for questions. • Design interface—think about mouse clicks and text area. • Set up functions for asking question and functions can handling the event of the answer being given. • Check out tutorial.

  5. skier • Demonstrate

  6. skier • Mountain moves. The skier does not move down the mountain. • Use of arrow moves skier left and right. • Place gates • Determine how to see if skier misses a gate • Design decision: stop game immediately or keep score. • See tutorial. • See source code for iterative design: skier1, skier2, skier3, skier4

  7. String methods • How do you examine a part of a string? • Suppose you have a variable, course, coursename, holding something like MAT1420.45 or NME3440.45 • course.substr(0,3) will return "MAT" or "NME" • Course.substr(3,1) will return "1" or "3" Is this an upper-level course? if (Number(course.substr(3,1))>2) ….

  8. substr, continued • I used this in the radio button video play. • This worked (only) because I named the buttons according to a pattern (THAT I MADE UP) so that I/my code can detect and use something from the names!

  9. String methods • There are many, some consistency across different languages. • There is substr and substring. • QUIZ: do search to find out difference between these two string methods.

  10. How do you combine strings? • If variable bos holds "MAT", "NME", etc. and num holds "1420", "3440", etc. and section holds "20", "45", etc. then the full name of a course is ????? • Answer: use +

  11. Answer • course = bos+num+"."+section;

  12. SharedObject • Reprise: a version of cookies. Persistent data on the client computer. • Browser specific. • Used for behavioral marketing. • Demonstrate. http://faculty.purchase.edu/jeanine.meyer/as30/simpleso.html

  13. SharedObject • Store name-value pair • For complex data, need to do calculations to create one long string • split • Join • do search to find how these work. They are string methods.

  14. Map program • Request to have mouse move a hole/shadow over a Google Maps. • http://faculty.purchase.edu/jeanine.meyer/html5/mapshadow.html • Issues: • how to put canvas on top of div where the map goes • how to draw the mask (hint: use "rgba(r,b,g,.5)"; • how to manage events

  15. Homework • [Show projects] • [Make proposal for your project] • SHOW YOUR PROJECT • Study guide to final and come to my office with questions and come to class with questions.
