Create a design document (e.g., MS Word, pdf, or shared Google doc) that includes the following things.

• Specify the key functionality of each component of your project. List each class that will be necessary for your project and, for each class, list the data that the class will be responsible for (instance variables) and what communication will be required (i.e., methods). Also, specify the associations between these classes (i.e., is-a, has-a, instance-of).
• For each method, give a description and algorithm for what it does. Remember, an algorithm is not code -- it is pseudo-code that could be implemented in any programming language.
• A picture of a white-board image (or a drawing) that shows an initial guess of what the interface will look like and how the output will be presented (a picture/drawing could be very useful here). It’s best to hand-draw this early in the design process, before taking time to program anything.
• The final component of the design document is a phased implementation plan. List at least two intermediate steps that you will use to mark progress in completing your project.

Here is an example design of a mine sweeper game

Remember, the more clearly you specify your design at this stage, the easier your programming will be later (the hard part, the thinking, will already be finished!!)
