Sample Apps

Three working apps, the kind you will be able to build yourself by the end of this unit. Try them with a partner. As you go, write down at least two places where an app seems to be keeping track of a piece of information, or using it to decide what to do.

Press Run to start the app.

Pet Rock

A rock that evolves, if you are patient enough.

Try this

  1. 1 Click the rock about ten times and watch the number.
  2. 2 Keep going to 50 and see what happens to the rock.
  3. 3 Buy the +2 upgrade. What happened to your click count?
  4. 4 Now click once. How much did it go up by this time?

What is this app keeping track of, and what does it use it for?

Write your answer down first. Then check it.
