Status Report

The past week has been yet another long and challenging one. During the first few days we were working on an assignment that included a listbox from which you could choose an action that would be preformed by the program. I faced many problems with this program, but in the end I was able to debug the program and successfully complete the project.
Another challenge that we faced during this week was creating a payroll application that calculate the employee’s gross pay, tax and net pay. To make this program more efficient we added a menu and dialogue box that could be used to change the hourly rate and the tax rate to the user’s wishes.
Overall this week was a challenging one that tested our knowledge throughly and pushed us to new levels in computer engineering.

During the past week we have explored different programs by using different functions. As the programs get more complicated, so does the process that we have to go through to create the program. The more sophisticated the program, the harder it is for us as students to develop it.
By learning and exploring the different use of many functions, we are now able to create better and more efficient programs. I believe that we are slowly working our way up to the future, where we can create even better programs. I personally cannot wait!

Yet another frustrating and exciting week has gone by. Our projects are getting more complicated as we are introduced to new ideas such as making decisions in a program, or documentation. As the complications of these projects increase so does the intensity in which we have to work in.
Even though the projects seem impossible to complete and difficult to endure, it is the most satisfying feeling when you solve the problem on your own and find out that you may pass the course after all.
I think that this week has been the most important week so far as I realized that if you try hard you can solve the problems and that nothing gets accomplished by accepting defeat.

Weekly Status

This week has been the most exciting and frustrating week in the course so far. We learned more about programs, and how to apply the knowledge we have gained in the past weeks to create a program on visual basics.
Programming is nothing like I thought it would be. It's not just about a bunch of people gazing into the screen, and typing away. It requires a lot of thought, and a series of steps that must be followed for the program to work. Sure there is some typing but it's mostly the use of logic.
I found it quite difficult to comprehend at first, and I never seemed to the right thing. There were so many errors with my program that I was completely overwhelmed, but with the help of my beloved friends, I managed to pull through by the end of the week and create something that I was truly proud of.

Weekly Status

During this past week I spent most of my time trying to customize my website so that it represented my personality. I tweaked with the settings on the website and used the colors that I prefer, and expressed myself under the ‘favorites’ element. I added one of my favorite images of a rose in my introductions blog and enabled a mail-to-blogger feature to make creating postings easier.

The biggest challenge that I faced was putting on my favorite music. I didn’t know how to start, or where to get my music. But by asking my helpful little friends,I figured out how to put on music, which is probably my favorite thing on this whole blog!

I think that I would like to change this plain black background, and replace it with a picture that perhaps I have created. I guess we’ll see how far I get by next week won’t we?
