Description
Version 5 (Feb 2025) - Release Notes:
- Updated notes on identifier naming conventions
- Additional examples of operators
Version 4 (Oct 2023) - Release Notes:
- These slides have updated graphics, condensed and more precise explanations.
- New Now includes using System.out.print and Scanner class so students can learn to output as well as receive user input (Scanner is not a part of the AP Subset, so clear explanations of what to expect on the AP Exams are also provided).
- New content on increment / decrement operators
- New content on rounding numbers algorithm
- New/more exercises on identifying output for student practice
- New QR Codes for accessing links (for students) during presentation
- New code snippets, new and improved way to highlight code snippets.
- New 15 new Slides added
- New Chart illustrating data-types
- $$$ Remains exactly the same price $$$
Version 3 - Release Notes: these slides have been updated graphics, condensed and more precise explanations, more questions for students, and remains the same price. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Version 3 is included in the APCSA - Version3 Bundle which you may consider getting for better value.⭐️⭐️⭐️
Introduction: These slides explore the concepts of "Primitive Data types": these types refer to values which are stored directly in memory using their binary representation. i.e., we know exactly how these values are stored in memory. All more complex types (reference types) build on primitive types as building blocks.
Student Objectives: Define and identify Primitive types
Determine how primitive values are stored in memory and the possible output when using specific operators
Numeric Types
- Declaring Variables, How to store values in memory
- Understanding the range (limit) of each type
- Writing a program for rounding off values.
Operators (Mathematical, Relational, Logical)
- Evaluate Operator Precedence: Which operation to execute first
Char (ASCII): Understanding how Char is stored in memory
Boolean: How its stored in memory and why it is the most efficient way to store date
Note: This content refers to and builds on the “Data-Representation” slides
Note: For the best experience please view the slides in presentation mode using Microsoft PowerPoint.
