Event-driven Programming can be Simple Enough for CS 1
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have recently designed a CS 1 course that integrates event-driven programming from the very start. Our experience teaching this course runs counter to the prevailing sense that these techniques would add complexity to the content of CS 1. Instead, we found that they were simple to present and that they also simplified the presentation of other material in the course. In this paper, we explain the approach we used to introduce event-driven methods and discuss the factors underlying our success.

متن کاملEvent-driven and Attribute-driven Robustness
Over five decades have passed since the first wave of robust optimization studies conducted by Soyster and Falk. It is outstanding that real-life applications of robust optimization are still swept aside; there is much more potential for investigating the exact nature of uncertainties to obtain intelligent robust models. For this purpose, in this study, we investigate a more refined description...
متن کاملA Library to Support a Graphics - BasedObject - First Approach to CS 1 Kim B . Bruce
In this paper we describe a library we have developed that supports an \OO-from-the-beginning" approach to CS 1. The design of interactive graphical programs helps students to both use objects and write methods early while designing and implementing interesting programs. The use of real graphics \objects" and event-driven programming are important components of this approach.
متن کاملDeclarative Events for Object-Oriented Programming
In object-oriented designs inversion of control is achieved by an event-driven programming style based on imperatively triggered events. An alternative approach can be found in aspect-oriented programming, which de nes events as declarative queries over implicitly available events. This helps to localize de nition of events and avoid preplanning, but lacks a clean integration with object-orient...
متن کاملTesting and Debugging Concurrency Bugs in Event-Driven Programs
Event-driven programs are prone to concurrency bugs due their inherent nature of handling asynchronous events. Asynchronous events introduce logical concurrency into these programs making them hard to be thoroughly tested and debugged. However, understanding the root causes and characteristics of concurrency bugs can ease the debugging process and help developers to avoid introducing them. Unfo...
