New Mexico Computer Science for All

Learning Objective: This week continues the focus on Agent Based Modeling.  The student learns about  patches and agent-environment interactions.  The computer science concepts of Boolean logic and conditional statements are introduced to the student.

While the coding portion of the module isn't due until the end of the module, it is always best to review the programming challenges and extensions at the beginning of the week, ask questions about them and start coding.
