In this lesson, students will extend their learning on 2D arrays by traversing through them. When attempting to access all elements in a 2D array, we can do so in two different ways. Row-major order traverses the 2D array by accessing each value in a row before moving to the next row and column-major order traverses each column down all rows before moving to the next column. This lesson corresponds with AP Computer Science A topic 8.2.
Students will be able to:
This lesson builds toward the following Enduring Understandings (EUs) and Learning Objectives (LOs). Students should understand that…
EU Con-2 Programmers incorporate iteration and selection into code as a way of providing instructions for the computer to process each of the many possible input values. (LO’s 2.N)
EU Var-2 To manage large amounts of data or complex relationships in data, programmers write code that groups the data together into a single data structure without creating individual variables for each value. (LO’s 2.F, 2.G)
These are all the activities included in the lesson
