AP CS A FRQ Solutions

This repository contains solutions to the Free Response Questions (FRQs) from past AP Computer Science A exams. Each solution is explained with code comments and detailed explanations to help students understand the problem-solving process. The goal of this repository is to provide a thorough walkthrough of each problem, helping students gain insights into how to approach and solve common types of problems on the AP exam.

Repository Structure

• Each problem is located in its own folder.
• Each folder contains:
  • The Java class that solves the problem.
  • A test class to verify the solution.
  • A detailed problem description (paraphrased to comply with copyright rules).
  • An explanation of the code and approach taken to solve the problem.
