This repository is dedicated to the WiCHackathon! It was the first repository anyone in our team has created. Our work includes source code for a java financial literacy simulation. This simulation is Parent-Child based, with the parent setting incentives for a child. The goal of the simulation/game is for the child to learn how to manage money at a younger age. There is also VSCODE for a work in progress GUI.

E-House-WiCHacks

This repository is dedicated to the WiCHackathon! It was the first repository anyone in our team has created.
Our team/authors consists of Second-Year Electrical Engineer, Tianna Seitz and First-Year Computer Engineer, Alexandra Ciesielka.

Our work includes source code for a java financial literacy simulation. This simulation is Parent-Child based, with the parent setting incentives for a child. There are classes Bank, Stock, Child, Parent and RunProgram. No testing has been done on the code, and there could be some more tests to account for user error and design error.

The goal of the simulation/game is for the child to learn how to manage money at a younger age. A work in progress GUI was created to connect methods from simulation to an interface. We found out there was not enough time to finsish a GUI and put our efforts into creating a simulation instead to show the functionality of the methods. Although text-based, the simulation does have educationaly aspects directed to a younger audience.
