Here’s a summary of the Java Assignment I’m currently doing at college, I have chosen to design and implement a Rock, Paper, Scissors game, I’m currently have some code written out but not much and I’m finding it quite hard to so, others could probably do it straight away but not me, not yet anyway someday I’ll babe to do it but till then I’ll just have to carry on learning Java and I guess I find this assignment hard because it is an assignment and if it wasn’t hard there would be no point in it.

Assignment 1 (Individual)
Write a Java Applet

Background
This assessment is designed to give you the opportunity to write and implement a useful Java Applet.

Scenario
You have been asked to write a ‘useful’ applet which is presented through an HTML page. One condition is that the applet has to access an external data source.

Tasks

Identify the purpose of the applet
Identify the purpose/function of the applet you plan to write. Produce an outline of the requirements and submit it to your tutor for approval. This must be done before any other tasks are attempted.

Clearly identify the functions
Describe in detail the planned functions and behaviours of the applet. These must be clearly identifiable so that your achievement can be measured.

Describe the planned solution
Show how you plan to design the solution using an appropriate diagram or text. You must specify the classes required.

Code the classes
Write Java code for each class and explain using embedded comments how it works.

Compile and Test
Compile and test your applet code. Show that it correctly implements the functions and behaviours from (2) above.

Deliver using HTML
Present the applet in a suitable web page whose design matches its purpose.

Consider Limitations
Explain the limitations placed on the use of applets.

Write a report
Submit a written report covering these items. In it consider options and choices, justify any decisions you make and include a critical review in which you compare your solution with the original requirements and consider alternative solutions.

Study the Grading Criteria
Make sure that you cover all the points listed in the following section.
