EDIT2: what exactly do you mean by the ground up? What kind of stuff have you learned so far..and what are they expecting you to do? (answers those and I can compare with my java class so far)
Ground up meaning I am building a program from a blank page. All previous assignments we have a program already or at least some of the code and we change or add things to it. Also each assignment so far was something that had to do with what we read.
So far we have read about 6 chapters on:
1. Variables, Operators & Expressions
2. Methods and applying scope
3. Decision statements
4. Compound assignments & Iteration statements
5. Managing Errors and Exceptions
Just touching the surface basically.
This program assignment requires us to use checkboxes.radiobuttons. Radiobuttons will change what is displayed on the checkboxes depending on what radiobutton you select. checkboxes should all clear (be false) if the radibutton selection is changed. There is one other step I don't recall as well.
I got the content change for checkboxes down...thanks to google and the intellisense in VS. What I am stuck on is the radiobuttons each have a dollar value as do the checkboxes. Once selections are made it should add up what is checked (true) and total it up with taxes, etc.
I know I need some if statements and need variables that are populated if boxes are checked. I know this in my head I just don't know how to code it....
I hate being a newb! I just want to get past this and become good at this. I'm so sick of my current career....
