[Year 12 SofDev] Validation in Programming in SD

[Kent Beveridge]

Similar thoughts here too Ben. VB.NET<http://VB.NET> has a few of those validation methods like u mentioned. I will be looking for my guys to do range and type checks as well as Boolean checks.
Open to more thoughts here..

Hey Guys,

I’m just wondering to what level do the students need to implement validation into their programs for U4O1 in SD?

I’m using VB.net<http://VB.net> as my programming language, and have done basic existence checking with the students so far (even some type checking – at least making sure that the input is a number – IsNumeric)

How much further do I need to go with the students?

Thanks
