Lecture 16 | Programming Methodology (Stanford)

Lecture by Professor Mehran Sahami for the Stanford Computer Science Department (CS106A). Professor Sahami introduces the topic Array and shows how to create one.

CS106A is an Introduction to the engineering of computer applications emphasizing modern software engineering principles: object-oriented design, decomposition, encapsulation, abstraction, and testing. Uses the Java programming language. Emphasis is on good programming style and the built-in facilities of the Java language.

@pker5range ++ adds 1. so where would you want to add one? (inch...lol)

His manner of discussion is great.

Mehran said that it's bad style to create an array of one integer so you can pass that array into into a method to change the integer, but he doesn't mention the "correct" way of passing primitives by reference. He has mentioned before the "Integer" class, but you can't change the value. So is the best way to just create your own Integer class that holds a single integer and pass that object around? Or is there a better method? Maybe he'll cover this in more detail in one of the next lectures.

2 people got the Darth Vader exception.

On a separate note STRING THEORY w/ arrays :~), it sounds fun.
