Week 0 end of algorithms II quiz: figure out what some code does hw: turn in one very easy but initially a little opaque just because of context but there can only be so many ways - what got me was the way that was correct didn't work at first but I turned out to be right, something was getting stuck and now it all works. the second one was a little deceptively difficult, a term we all throw around but when it comes down to it, what exactly is the algorithm behind it? that was yesterday. today is day 1 of week 1, and the algorithms are already hard (looking, anyway) Even after doing fairly well in most of the other classes this class appears like it could be much, much more difficult. In a good way.

Mirror, mirror ...

  Mirror, mirror ... I am going to give some reflections on some of my journals, starting with this one. This is the last required journal, and I like making them, so it's probably not going to be the last actual one. Sometimes I feel like I come across something important that should be shared, like The Pet-Petter I made, or the C framework object I made, or  ValueBlaster . The journal is good because you can't remember everything. I really liked, but had completely forgotten about until I ran across yesterday, my Java VLC-Remoter program I made in the first Java class we took here. It's a good thing I put it in my journal, to remind me to finish it, that will be a handy program. Plus, sometimes I like to share things I learned which I find amazing, even if they're known, for example, one very important thing probably lots of people already know about, but I personally hadn't learned until this curriculum was the JavaScript for - 'of' keyword. I've been...

The Darkness Descendeth/Hollywood Here I Come!!

  The Darkness Descendeth/Hollywood Here I Come!! The week's required reflections: What did I do, and, what am I going to do next week? The first thing I did was started off with starting to make the video script. As I worked on it, I kept getting stuck on how I needed to fix the layout of the website. It was bugging me, and it was bugging my first client, so I switched gears that day, and re-attacked the layout, worried it would spiral into another project of it's own. But I was wrong, and it only took a little bit. The program is super controllable, and everything is super organized. I did a spectacular job on extrapolating the features it's built with, so all I had to do was rearrange the components, written in JSON, inside the JavaScript, and I took a couple out that weren't going to work out anyway, and I still had every type of component demonstrated in the interface, and everything fit perfectly on all the screen resolutions we use. It's even been reported to...

Unplug-replug never fails Required reflections for the week: What project milestones did you accomplish this week? If you're working in a team, please list what you personally contributed, not the project status overall. What is your plan for next week? The main milestone accomplished this week was finishing the video I created for my project: This is it, the website in an iFrame, ValueBlast.Us: Or if you want, you could visit the site: ValueBlast.Us Sub-milestones accomplished this week included: I became knowledgeable in video editing Also became knowledgeable in sound editing And even knowledgeable in making my own sound effects now. Most importantly, I became knowledgeable in session variables, but that was actually a few weeks ago. I also took and presumably passed a final in architecture class this week, and turned in the two last homeworks for that class as well. One was super easy, cache tra...
