ICS2O8

Welcome to my site for ICS2O8 at Turner Fenton for September 2017.

This course will introduce the student to programming concepts using Java.

We will be using the DrJava IDE environment as well as a custom java class to simplify entering input. If DrJava does not run, students may need to download and install the java SDK from Oracle's website. The DrJava website points to a recommended JDK here.

The custom java class (IBIO.java) must always be located in the same directory as the code you are working on. Please download these files here:

Excellent tutorial on using the DrJava debugger here.

In some rare situations, the debugger is not enabled. You may need to manually specify the location of the tools.jar file. Go to "Edit->Preferences->Resource Locations" and point either where it is installed on your machine, or download and point to the following file and restart DrJava:
