Using break is a horrible habit to get into, try not to, simple check if the condition of the original loop is meet or not in this case if Gameloop is n set it to false why have a while loop in the being if you don't use it? btw, no one really likes the whole idea of fake loading screens; the latter is my $0.02; the former however, should be fixed.

It's cool, but it's pretty procedural and isn't the whole point of Java in grade 11 to learn object-oriented concepts?

It's halfway through the course so they should know what an object is. It's fairly important in Java and it took me a while to wrap my head around the concept.

Comments are meant to shed light on the reasoning behind a piece of code above and beyond the information the code itself provides. That type of comment does not do so. It is just extra visual clutter and makes the code harder to read for no benefit.

I use this type of comment to easily identify where the block of code starts and ends and where the classes end. When my code is 1000+ lines of code, I need to be able to see my procedures.

It's extra.... stuff to look at. And it doesn't say anything useful that the code itself shouldn't already be telling you.

I've been working with java for about a year and (correct me if i'm wrong please wtd, AV or somebody else who knows), but I would suggest putting the correct / Incorrect statements into their own methods to clean up a couple of lines of text again, i could be wrong so i would suggest waiting on another post to tell you whether this is a good idea or not azn

Author:	S_Grimm [ Thu Dec 04, 2008 11:35 am ]
Post subject:	RE:Grade 11 Mid-Term ISU
putting the questions in there own procedures is helpful, but checking if the answer is right is just a couple of if statements and boolean variables.

Another thing, your coding in all your questions directly into main. This doesn't really make your program more expandable easily. Why don't you read in the questions and answers in from an external file?
