Week of December 10

This week we reviewed the material from the previous weeks to prepare for the test next week and quiz on Thursday. We got a big packet of worksheets due on Friday too, that should be fun...Finals start next week and I'm really nervous about my classes...Hopefullly I get a crackin' in my studies this weekend and I can get through the finals week alive. Comp SC is going to play a major role in my elevated stress levels next week, as the final is going to be  pain in the behind. Still haven't decided if i'm going to switch out of Comp sCi for next semester or not.

Week of December 3

This week we just had a bunch of workdays to finish all of the labs and worksheets that we hadn't done over the previous weekend. We finished the cipher lab and the WordSearch lab this week, as well as starting the song and album lab. There were four worksheets due and I was able to finish all of them with some help from Mr. Stephens. Comp Sci is getting harder as the semester comes to a close, and I'm starting to think about moving down to Computer Programming. I haven't made my final decision yet but It'll depend on how much I'm able to learn and get out of the last few weeks of Comp Sci. Finals are closing in, and I feel like it'll be a big crunch...

Week of November 26

This week we learned a new lesson over parameters and references. This is where your code has references to certain objects and then you call them in certain manners to display things you assign to them. This week was pretty hectic because it was right after Thanksgiving break and everyone was still getting back in the swing of things. There was a lot of work to be finished from previous weeks as well, so lots of people mainly played the catch up game this week. On top of the new lesson, we got a new lab as well: Albums. This lab is where we are given songs and playlists and we have to sort them. Hopefully we I'll be able to finish the lab in quick time so I won't have to play the catch up game and I'll be able to be on top of things.

Week of November 12

This week we went over 2D arrays, a type of array that has   two different dimensions having both columns and rows instead of just singular rows. The concept was pretty confusing because arrays was already hard enough for me. I went over 2D arrays online and it seemed to help a bit but I couldn't really relate it to the WordSearch lab where you have to find certain words in a text file that holds certain hidden words. I still haven't finished the lab, so hopefully I'll be able to get that on lock soon. The worksheets weren't as hard as the lab, because I am able to understand the theoretical conception of 2D arrays but its a lot harder for me to actually write my own code to fit the circumstances asked
