2.  You will be required to write a somewhat sophisticated Java program that consists of several methods/functions.  You need to know the concepts very well:

                            parameter and parameter passing,

                           functions and the return statement,

                           the difference between void and non-void methods

                          ARRAYS and how they work.  How for loops are used with arrays!!!!!

 Know that methods and functions that deal with arrays usually need at least 2 parameters:  the array and the size of the array (the number of elements in an array that are actually used.

 

3.  Be sure to study the programs dealing with arrays given in class
