 #### PROGRAMMING PROJECT
 
+Complete this programming project using your notes, the text book, and any online or in-class sources you like.  Your work must be your own; you may ask a friend to look over your work, or discuss procedural decomposition with you, but you must write all code on your own.  To receive full credit on this lab, you must submit a structure diagram or pseudocode-plan for each question.

+Recall how to use Scanner to get user input:
+
+``` Java
+Scanner console = new Scanner(System.in);
+System.out.print("Hello, what is your name? ");
+String name = console.nextLine();
+
+System.out.print("What is your age? ");
+int age = console.nextInt();
+```

-Write a method called battleStart that introduces the battle, prompts the user to choose their first
-Pokémon to battle, and outputs the pairing. Your output should look something like this:
+Write a method called battleStart() that introduces the battle, prompts the user to choose their first

+Call battleStart() from your main() method and store the name of the Pokemon in a variable.

 ##### Exercise 2
-Write a method called damage that prompts the user for their base stats and reports damage done to
-their Pokémon in a battle. The formula used to calculate damage is:
+Write a method called damage() that takes a Pokemon’s name as a parameter and returns the about of HP after damage has been done. damage() should prompt the user for their base stats in order to calculate damage.  Use the following equations for calculating damage:
 
     Modifier = Same Type Attack Bonus (STAB) \* Random
     Damage = Modifier * ((2*Level+10)/250 + (Attack/Defense)*Base + 2)

+
+##### Conclusion
+In your completed project should include the following methods:
+  -	battleStart()
+  -	damage()
+  -	statsTable()
+
+These methods should all be called in main() so that the player can experience the entire battle in one sitting.
+
+Proper Java syntax and thorough comments are required.
