Objective
Use a structure to model a 2D or 3D figure.
Purpose
An opportunity to demonstrate your understanding of how to use stored properties and computed properties.
Success criteria
- you created an Xcode playground named GeometricFigures
- for your assigned 2D or 3D figure , you:
- authored a structure that stores key measurement(s)
- authored a structure that computes:
- the area and perimeter (for 2D figures), or…
- the surface area and volume (for 3D figures)
- where applicable, other measurements (for example, a circle with a radius of 5 units could compute it’s diameter as 10 units)
- wrote code that adheres to established code style conventions
- you performed manual calculations for at least one instance of your figure on paper
- took a clear photograph or screenshot of those calculations and included that in your portfolio post for this task on Notion
- you created instance(s) of the structure in the Xcode playground to verify that your code produces the same results as your calculations made on paper
- made a portfolio post to share your completed work
Exemplar
