Task 1 (80 min)

Mock Mod 0 Assessment

This assignment will allow you to practice git, github, top down design and oop. It is meant to be prep for the mod 0 assessment.

To Start, create a directory called, mod0_mock_assessment. In that directory, create three files: top-down-design.txt, classes.txt, and instances.txt (you can also use markdown files, but only if you're really confident in your skills).

Initialize git, add your changes, and make your initial commit. Create a mod0_mock_assessment repository in github and link your local repository with that remote one.

Notating Top-Down Design

Inside of your top-down-design.txt file, pick one of the tasks below to divide into sub tasks. Try to make at least 20 to 30 tasks and subtasks in total. Break things down to their most basic pieces.

  • Doing Laundry
  • Making a sandwich
  • Tying your shoes

NOTE Make sure to use the same format we did in session 4. Pay attention to detail

When you are finished, add another commit, and push your changes to github.

Notating Classes

Inside of your classes.txt file, pick at least one of the classes below and define 5 attributes and 4 methods for that class. Make sure that your methods either change an attribute, or utilize attributes for calculation or display purposes.

  • Child
  • Chair
  • Plant
  • Boat
  • Dog

NOTE Make sure to use the same format we did in session 4. Pay attention to detail

When you are finished, add another commit, and push your changes to github.

NOTE Make sure to use the same format we did in session 4. Pay attention to detail

When you are finished, add another commit, and push your changes to github.
