SOFT6008 Class 02.1 & 02.2 A

Students worked on coding the slot machine with prizes for 3 of a kind and 2 of a kind.

Everybody got there in the end.

Well done!

SOFT6008 Week 01 Recap

In the lecture we looked at the Document Object Model and a number of examples using images and random numbers for simple games of chance.

Before the next lecture I expect student to have built a slot machine by extending the examples provided.

I may ask a few students to send me their working slot machine in advance of the lecture and ask them to talk us through it.

SOFT6007 Week 01 Recap

Good job guys!

I asked a lot of you in the labs this week, but I was keen for us to make a start. Don't worry if the Nested List was a bit tricky just give it some time over the weekend. The important thing about HTML is the structure. It's all about the structure.

Get used to using the validator at validator.w3.org

We looked at
structure of a HTML document
strong and em [51]
links - a tag (relative & absolute paths) [77-84]
images - omg tag [99-100]
unordered lists [66]
ordered lists [65]
nested lists [68]


you can find more in the text book at the page [numbers] I've listed

Please find out about
Definition lists [67]

If you haven't got the nested list sorted please work on it over the weekend.

This video about using images in web pages might be useful.

HTML

Links

Images

Order lists

Unordered lists

Nested lists

I gave students a nested list exercise but it was a bit tricky

SOFT6007 Class 01.3 & 01.4 W

We looked at

Links, relative paths

Lists, nested lists

Doctype

Validator

I gave students an exercise on nested lists. But I think it was a bit soon for that. I think they need more time to digest it,

SOFT6008 Class 01.1 & 01.2 B

Introduction to JavaScript

Examples

Hello

Random image

I asked students to take the coins and dice examples and extend them to make a slot machine. 

SOFT6008 Class 01.4

I intriduced the DOM and explained how getElemenyById is used to mdoify the properties of elements on a page.

W3e looked at
coin toss
rollover
dice

In the lab students will try to make a slot machine by modifying this code.

SOFT6008 Class 01.3 A

Another example of generating HTML on the fly using document.write

• Random Image

I asked students to add alt width and height tags. Students who were able to do that get what's going on. 

I mentioned ceil and floor as alternatives to round.

SOFT6008 Code Reviews Cancelled

I learned today that I have to have all of the results in by 1700 on Friday 4 September.  It's not practical for me to attempt to do the project presentation we have scheduled and do all the correcting I need to do in that time.

So I am cancelling the meetings we booked for the first week back.  Sorry for the inconvenience.
