Java Lesson 6 – Loops (cont’d)

The next loop I want to talk about is the do-while loop. This kind of loop is different from a for loop in that it will loop indefinitely until a condition no longer applies. Think of it as an ‘if’ statement that repeats.
do
{
// code to repeat
} while(condition)

Java Lesson 5 – Loops

A cool feature in many programming languages is the ability to repeat code over and over. A common use for loops can be found in games. Games have an infinite loop that updates the game with new information, clears the screen, then redraws the game components using new information.
There are three different types of loops in Java. These consist of the for loop, the while loop, and the do-while loop.

For those damsels in distress, there is a surefire solution to your problems. De-stress! Now, before you go out and pummel your teachers to get rid of the source of your stress, think twice. Ignoring or getting rid of your stress will only provide short term satisfaction and will not prove to be beneficial in the long run. Instead, one should focus on accepting stress as a fact of life.

During the year, I have found that a routine after school is not a bad thing. I don't want you to start a monotonous daily task schedule because you are not a robot, but if I could tell you to be a robot I would. Everybody appreciates someone who can throw down a robot beat. Anyways, the kind of routine I am talking about is something that I do every day that is a little spice thrown into the lame parts of the day. Everyday includes lame part that suck all the fun out of life. If you decide to have a little fun everyday or every week-it makes life way more fun.

Java Lesson 4 – Conditionals

Now that we can store things, it may be useful to be able to have our program make decisions. Having statements that make decisions is called conditionals, or under certain conditions. Here is the general look for a conditional statement.
if( condition to test )
{
actions to take if condition is true
}

Java Lesson 3 – Variables

Welcome to the third Java lesson in the series. This time I want to introduce the idea of variables. Variables are a universal concept in all programming languages. The basic idea of a variable is a way for your program to remember information for later use. A good way to think about it is that it is a lot like coming across a dollar on the floor, then saving it in some kind of jar. At any time, you can look in that jar to see how much money you have.

Going to a summer camp can be either an amazing experience or a haunting thought of boredom or rejection. A summer camp can be centered on any topic from leadership to a tennis camp. Getting back today from my own third summer camp, I have learned alot. The type of camp plays a great deal into whether the camp turns out to be awesome or not. A camp that you are forced into or pushed into for a purpose other than from your own heart is the first step down the wrong path.

In the summer, arguably the busiest season of all for the ambitious high-school student, there is a plethora of activities one can choose from: from summer internships to volunteering at the local soup kitchen to one's first job, the possibilities are endless.

The question is, then, what to do?

While it may be tempting to cave in to parental pressure and just go for the most swanky-looking, prestigious program that will accept you, there are many other factors to consider when choosing your summer activities.

Before you start a school year, there is something very important that each student must take care of, that is there schedule. A schedule is what each and every student will follow for their entire school year. In most schools, students are allowed to choose their schedules, and choose classes that they would like to take on in the following year. Now when creating this schedule, one needs to know their limitations, and what is expected of them.

The second golden rule almost comes naturally after the first. As you become more confident, you’ll find that the many conceived colors today will become more and more appealing- but wait! This is not time to panic because you’re inexperienced, don’t be afraid. BE VERY NOT AFRAID! Here are some tips:

1. Look at yourself in the mirror and decide what ‘season’ you might belong to. Confused? Here’ list:
- Blonde with light brown/ashy highlights belongs in spring. Dirt blondes may have a little winter in them.
