What progress did you make today on your solution? What needs to be completed next class?

Today, I decided to drop from Java B to Java A. I realized I do not know how to do methods with Java, so I dropped to Java A. In Java A, today we learned how to use a library that enabled us to create drawings on a sketch pad. Basically, the progress I made today was copying the code Ms. Petr provided from the sheet, and understanding how creating a new object worked. For example, to create a new sketch pad, one would have to write:

SketchPad poster; // this would establish "poster" as a variable

poster = new SketchPad(600,600);
//from what I remember from taking Java at Maryland, you have to actually tell Java there is a new object, and define it.

Next class I have to complete typing up the program from the code Ms. Petr provided me.
