MY NAME's SEMESTER Opus
OPTIONAL SUBTITLE
Introduction
Hello, my name is Kyle Lymber and my plan is to go to RIT for game design and development, however before I do that I am taking the CS courses at CCC to get a CS degree before trying to go to RIT. I love playing video games of all sorts and have since I was a child. It was always a dream to think about making video games and now here I am working my way to that dream. I am currently working on making a side scroller type game with two friends of mine, Zachary Tietje the artist and Sam Arnold the other programmer. Working on this game has been amazing to see what it takes to make a fluent game and just how much time it needs to work out all of the flaws. Gives me an appreciation for all of the huge game companies and just how much work they put into all of it.

I refreshed a lot of my basic C programming skills making a few small programs. I feel more confident with my skills at C programming. I have never been good at working with arrays, every time I try to work with an array I always end up confused, also with arrays and loops. an example would be like making an array and checking each value of the array with an incrementing value in the loop. that kind of problem… is a problem.

Yesterday, all my problems seemed so far away… Yesterday I was able to finish displayf and insert in sll0. these two functions blew my mind, I worked from 2 oclock till 6:15 and eventually figured out that I had the basic concept for displayf but it was in the wrong order. I have been commenting my code a lot more than I use too and I learned vi much better and by that I mean I'm actually using it because I can get it to work. Indent is great! did not know about that command either.

Last night I was able to figure out compare.c. I had a lot of problems trying to figure out but eventually figured it out. I turned the project in late in order to complete the entire thing and I'm hoping that, that does not hurt me bad because it was only an hour after the due date, however if it does then it does. I worked out logic so the most important will trump the others just by using if statements.

The past few weeks have been brutal with all my classes, tests, projects and the concept of doubly linked lists is blowing my mind and I'm having some difficulty understanding what I need to do for a lot of these projects. I started off doing really well and able to easily figure everything out, now I feel like something is missing because it seems that everyone else in class is knowing what to do and I just don't.

The break was able to get me caught back up and I feel much more confident with the content we have covered in the past few days. I have been getting much better with the use of error codes and the who, what, where, why with them. the Last 2 data structures we covered being Queues and Stacks were easy to comprehend however making them actually work was slightly more difficult. I'm kind of beat from this entire semester however I'm excited for this final project because regardless if I do well or not I've always been enjoying the stuff I learn from these projects!
