Meta issue for tracking our progress with writing various code examples for the course notes. Each should have a separate issue and pull request created to track it's progress.

Please add and edit this list as time goes on.

Examples:

• #3
  • Similar common algorithms
• #5
• #14
• #8
• #10
• #12

A quick notes section discussing arrays in Java. This will be a shorter note that follows this outline:

• Generating a mathematical sequence to fill an array.
• {} initialization
• Nested Arrays
• Arrays as the underlying tool in an ArrayList.

Because this is meant to be a short note, we won't have an as in-depth example.

The current readme is just a starting point (not proof read or detail rich enough).

As we further these notes we should come back to and rebuild it to contain the information we need.

Todo:

• Provide relevant resource links (Euler, PythonTutor, course page, etc...)
• Provide instructions for IDE setup (or in separate file).
• Talk about digging through docs, existing code, and online tutorials

Here, we will provide an example that allows students to play with inheritance. We will set the stage as a basic profiling of different collections. From there, students can swap out the interfaces and play with the code. We will end with asking the students to implement their own list on top of an existing one that also provides some statistics (or maybe some extra debug prints, whatever works).

Write a small fizz buzz example as our starting point into java. This can likely contain other toy algorithms in the same module.

This should be primarily a quick familiarization of students with how Java looks and acts.
