Individual Homework Assignment #1

Hello Chess

Due by Web Turn-In: Midnight, Sunday, March 22

(See general homework instructions for turn-in details.)

The purpose of this assignment is to get you up to speed as quickly as possible with the software tools (jME, etc.) that you will need for the homework assignments and to shake down the homework submission process:

Technical Requirements

Your basic assignment is to create a chess board with moveable pieces, which will look roughly like the rendering below. Note that this assignment does not include providing controls to actually move the pieces (that's part of the next assignment).

The code you write for this homework will be the foundation for the three following assignments in the course, so write it carefully and clearly!


Please post any questions to the myWPI discussion board for the course.
