AP CLASSES
AP COMPUTER SCIENCE |
There is no specific Summer Assignment, but it is highly recommended that you sharpen your typing skills. All we do is code, and you have to type all of that manually.

{ } [ ] ( ) - + = | * %Other than that, get out and enjoy your summer. Don't be the kind of computer scientist that just sits inside and codes all the time...
