We’ve looked at different ways to working with lists using functions and built in methods of the list. But now I want to show you how you might use Python to work with a list that doesn’t use a normal command. Some will be using loops, and operators, others, like copying a list to a…
If you need to include an If statement, inside of an Else statement, you might need an elif command, which combines the two of them together. Let’s look at an example real quick. Notice that everything revolves around these two numbers, and checking them. Since num1 cannot be both greater than and less than num2,…
We’re also going to look at some initial things that help make coding in Python easier. Multi-line lines of code The first issue is what to do if a line of code starts getting really long. In Python, by default, the line of code ends when you move to a new line. However, you can…
In our previous example, we had a class with a default constructor where we passed no arguments into the class. That is great, unless you want to set one or more class variables with data at run time. So lets look at overloading the class constructor. In this example, we keep our default constructor, but…
This introduction/refresher to Java Classes is assuming that you’ve worked with some Object Oriented language before, like C++, or maybe even Java and you just need a quick refresher. In Java, everything you build will be a class, with very few exceptions. to define a class, you will need a file name, with the same…
A flowchart is a graphical way to show the logic of an algorithm. While there is a technical and specific way of showing a flowchart, it isn’t required to logically get information across. Sometimes you’ll find them in jokes, or shared between non-technical people. Clearly, based on the example, you can see how to follow…

When we talk about web languages, we normally define them by being either client or server side. This is based upon where the script will run, or as it is sometimes called – execute. Client Side Languages A client side language runs on the end users machine. JavaScript is the most common client side language….
