CS Department, Fall 1997, Java Programming

Welcome to the Battleship project home page

Goals

Our aim is to write a program in Java that will play the popular game of Battleship either against the computer, or against another player on a different computer, running a different program. The project will be staged in four parts. Follow the links for more detail.

1. Basic graphics, due Oct. 31^st
2. Initial board position and user interface, due Nov. 12^th
3. Computer strategy, due Nov. 26^th
4. Two-player protocol, due Dec. 8^th

Rules of the game

Play a CGI version (presumably not Java)

My design document

The Protocol for the two-player game

A sample server/client program for the two-player game

The code for my version

The code for the multi-player server

The applet version that you can play (needs Netscape Communicator 4)
