Coding 1: Getting started

What will we be creating?

A 4x4 Whack A Mole game where a mole will randomly appear on any of the 16 holes and your objective is to 'whack' as many moles in the limited time of 30 seconds.


Before reading any further, it is highly recommended that you first read "Lesson 1: Get started with Java"

Unless you have prior experience with using Java and Eclipse IDE.

Now let's get started...

Start up Eclipse IDE and create a new 'Java Project'

You can name the project anything you like, but here I name it: 'WhackAJavaMole"

Just click on 'Finish' and the project should now appear on the side Package Explorer

Now we need to create a class.
So let's go ahead and right click on 'src' folder and click new -> class

Next we will name the class Game and click Finish

Great! You are now all set up and ready to begin coding.
