Introduction
In this lab you will learn and be able to play the exciting coding game called Robocode. Robocode is an event driven program that allows us to create, modify and test virtual robots in java. If you are not familiar with event driven programming you should consider completing the GUI Lab part 1 lab or at least read Step 3. Completing these Robocode labs will also give you a head start on understanding Application Programming Interfaces (APIs). |
