This is a repo of collected and created labs that cater towards beginner CS students. Topics include variable declaration/manipulation, control flow, conditional statements, operators, loops, arrays, and basic OOP.
- How to get started
- Lab 1 - Hello World
- Lab 2 - Car Loan Calculator
- Lab 3 - Basic Calculator
- Lab 4 - Nuts and Bolts
- Lab 5 - Bottles On The Wall

The first thing you will need is an Integerated Development Environment (IDE). There are several to choose from. With the simplicity of these labs, I highly recommend using BlueJ. It is lightway and extremely easy to set up and use. The labs will start with "Open BlueJ". If you choose to use a different IDE, ignore the step. Please look at the documentation for help with learning how to use BlueJ.

Thanks to the staff and students of Frisco ISD for allowing me to use and create learning material. ALl of this would not be possible without the collarboation and mentorship of my peers. Labs included in this repo are collaborations as well as original content.
