+ | ====January 26, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I learned how to have a program print a desired output and how to get a program to accept user input. | ||
+ | * This is significant because it will help with future projects. | ||
+ | * I somewhat understand what I am typing into my programs I have made. | ||
+ | * Had some trouble getting the program he had us type up working. | ||
+ | ====January 27, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I learned how to fully get an input that will give out an output when the user types an input. | ||
+ | * This is especially significant because I could barely do this is java but now I can do it in c++. | ||
+ | * I am getting there with this whole programming thing. Next goal, math. | ||
+ | * Had some trouble with getting the input/ | ||
+ | ====January 28, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Went more in depth with input/ | ||
+ | * This is helping me with my project for this class. | ||
+ | * I am understanding how things work. | ||
+ | * Had some trouble getting the program to show a number multiplied by itself. | ||
+ | ====January 29, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I got my program to fully work with squaring numbers with 5 as the last digit. I had it working yesterday, in a different manner, but it stopped working. So I took a look at it and nearly rewrote it. I made it so when a number is typed by the user the program subtracts the 5 from the number, divides it by 10, then adds 1 to the remainder and multiplies it by the remainder before it had the 1 added to it. | ||
+ | * This gave me a lot of trouble but it made it so now I understand more how things work in the code world. | ||
+ | * With the method used in this program it only works with 2 digit numbers. There is a way to adapt the method to work on 3 and 4 digit numbers but it's more work than it's worth. | ||
+ | * This program really stumped me for a bit. | ||
+ | ====February 1, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Learned more about setting up programs in C++. Also learned how to play tetris on Linux. | ||
+ | * This is important because now I can play tetris on the go when I have a computer. | ||
+ | * I am slowly understanding how to write programs and getting them to compile with few to no errors. | ||
+ | * Right now I am hunky dory with what I am learning. | ||
+ | ====February 2, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I learned about if statements in C++. | ||
+ | * This is important because with this I now can do more with programs that I couldn' | ||
+ | * If statements are interesting and can do incredible things. | ||
+ | * Having trouble finding out how to remove decimals from a number that is the output of another process. | ||
+ | ====February 3, 2016==== | ||
+ | * When I try to put 2000 into my program, the program stops because it can't process anything bellow 2001. | ||
+ | * It doesn' | ||
+ | * If I switched the amount subtracted to 1900 for when a 20th century year is typed the algorithm should work. | ||
+ | ====February 4, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today we worked with switches and more if statements. | ||
+ | * This is definitely important because this gives us more options with working around problems. | ||
+ | * I am liking this class a lot and understanding C++ more than java. | ||
+ | * Had some small errors with my code but found they were small typing errors. | ||
+ | ====February 5, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today we talked about more about malloc. | ||
+ | * This is important because I don't know what that is. | ||
+ | * This is how the program we typed in class worked. | ||
+ | * I had some trouble getting it to work because of not including the right package. | ||
+ | ====February 8, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today we talked about loops. | ||
+ | * This is important because loops make things easier in C++. | ||
+ | * I am slowly understanding loops, before I couldn' | ||
+ | * I had some trouble getting my program for the project to work but I got it. | ||
+ | ====February 9, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today we went in more detail about loops and actually wrote a program with a loop. | ||
+ | * This is important because loops make long processes faster and easier to create. | ||
+ | * Loops are similar to summations and do a process until it is told to stop. | ||
+ | * I had trouble learning how to get my loop to work but have fixed it. | ||
+ | ====February 10, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today we worked on loops again but with Joe's side of the class. | ||
+ | * He showed us some of his tricks and helped clarify more detail about the loops. | ||
+ | * Loops would make the project easier but the rules state no loops so I have something else in mind. | ||
+ | * I had trouble getting my program to work properly but I learned it was a few typing errors. | ||
+ | ====February 11, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today we worked on an old program we made a few days ago the is a number guessing game. | ||
+ | * We put a loop into it this time to make it so we could have multiple tries in one game. | ||
+ | * Loops made it so the game closed after the 6th guess. | ||
+ | * I had trouble typing this program up bought I got it. | ||
+ | ====February 12, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I finished my multiply by 11 program. | ||
+ | * The process used in this program could be used for 4 digit or 5 digit numbers just it would have to be tweaked a little to carry over numbers that need to be added to other numbers. | ||
+ | * It will always the same process just a little different to work with 4 digit numbers. | ||
+ | ====February 22, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Wow I am writing so much opus stuff. I am really good at it. | ||
+ | * This is important because writing is important. | ||
+ | * This is definitely being written on the 22nd of February. | ||
+ | * I am glad we had this talk. | ||
+ | ====February 23, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I am in Matt's class. There are computers here like Joe's room but they are Linux and not windows. | ||
+ | * There are two screens per computer. | ||
+ | * I think we talked about arrays today but I have a bad memory. | ||
+ | * I learned so much hacking stuff today. | ||
+ | ====February 24, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I thought about what I am having for lunch. | ||
+ | * There was a squirrel outside. | ||
+ | * I like squirrels. | ||
+ | * Was Joe born bald? | ||
+ | ====February 25, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today we did array stuff. | ||
+ | * This is what I used for part of my program. | ||
+ | * I like coding. | ||
+ | * What does a computer taste like? | ||
+ | ====February 26, 2016==== | ||
+ | * I feel like a kid with divorced parents switching back and forth from teacher to teacher. | ||
+ | * Both are very different in different worlds. | ||
+ | * One uses Linux one uses Windows. One is more fluent in C++ one in java. | ||
+ | * I like coding. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====March 1, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I got hacked. The hacker wrote messages on my computer like we have your kids and I will keep messing with your tetris game. | ||
+ | * Linux is cool because it you have to be worthy to use it. | ||
+ | * I am hungry. | ||
+ | * Ugh this is taking forever. | ||
+ | ====March 2, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I forgot to do my opus. | ||
+ | * This is bad because it was do. | ||
+ | * I hate the opus. | ||
+ | * Grrr this stinks. | ||
+ | ====March 3, 2016==== | ||
+ | * I dislike typing sometimes. | ||
+ | * Wow such type, many computer. | ||
+ | * How do I type. | ||
+ | * Meow. | ||
+ | ====March 4, 2016==== | ||
+ | * I hate this so much. | ||
+ | * Wait is this c++. | ||
+ | * Hmm. | ||
+ | * Bleh. | ||
+ | ====March 7, 2016==== | ||
+ | * I wish I could fly. | ||
+ | * What does mars smell like? | ||
+ | * I wish it was summer. | ||
+ | * I like coding. | ||

+ | * Ugh. | ||
+ | ====March 24, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Last time on Dinosaur Cube D. | ||
+ | * Gogurt and Mr. Freeze fought on Napkin and blew it up. | ||
+ | * In the process, Gogurt' | ||
+ | * His son Gogurt jr. and Pickle man got off the planet with Vegi and Bowl lady. | ||
+ | * The Napkins also made it off the planet as well. | ||
+ | ====March 25, 2016==== | ||
+ | * After that they waited for the dinosaur' | ||
+ | * They went to remake Gogurt but Gogurt was like no I am not coming back yet. | ||
+ | * Vegi was like " | ||

+ | ====March 31, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Still stuck. | ||
+ | * What to do. | ||
+ | * Can't sleep. | ||
+ | * Meow. | ||
+ | ====April 18, 2016==== | ||
+ | * I have learned how to use functions in my programs effectively and have used them recently in my projects. | ||
+ | * I am starting to understand how to program in C. | ||

+ | ====February 2, 2016==== | ||
+ | *Today I worked on the new project puzzlebox. | ||
+ | *Viewing the file file.txt through the file function I recieved the output that the file contains ASC11. | ||
+ | *Viewing the file file.txt through cat I recieved the output telling me the file is a simple text file containing ASC11 text. | ||
+ | *Next I used the gzip compression tool then viewed the file using file. It gave the output that the file was compressed and the date it was last modified. | ||
+ | *Even with the faster compression the file function still showed the same thing as before for the file when compressed with the gzip compression.When I checked it with the cat function and it spit out something different. | ||
+ | ====February 9, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I learned how to use the vi text editor. | ||
+ | * This is important because it can help me finish projects faster. | ||
+ | * Vi has alot more functionality than any of the other text editors. | ||
+ | * Having trouble remembering all the functions of vi. | ||
+ | ====February 11, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I learned more about vi. | ||
+ | * Vi makes things easier when you know about all of its functions. | ||
+ | * In vi you can delete whole lines, copy whole lines and even show line number unlike nano. | ||
+ | * Is there a way to keep syntax turned on in vi? | ||
+ | ====February 23, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Today I learned how to navigate the file system with console commands. | ||
+ | * This is important because it'll make things a lot easier when navigating the file system. | ||
+ | * You can search for words with a certain letter with commands. | ||
+ | * Will never remember any of these commands. | ||
+ | ====February 25, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Learned more commands to navigate with. | ||
+ | * The ls function usually just shows the files in a certain file, with this function you can also search for other things like certain characters. | ||
+ | * ls is very important because it will make lengthy processes shortened. | ||
+ | * They'd be really helpful if I could remember them. | ||
+ | ====March 1, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Learned about scripting today. | ||
+ | * With it we made math. | ||
+ | * We multiplied numbers. | ||
+ | * This is helpful because now I have an example of a script if I need one. | ||
+ | ====March 3, 2016==== | ||
+ | * Some option can make a program easier to use and more user friendly. | ||
+ | * They can change the colors. | ||
+ | * Now I know how to make files that edit how a program works. | ||
