======C/C++ Programming Journal======
====January 19, 2016====
  * What I learned in boating school today is how the class is going to operate and when our first project is due.
  * This is significant because it is the start of the process of learning how to do stuff in this course.
  * I have no idea how to write in c or c++.
  * Again my computer died and will be set back.
====January 21, 2016====
  *What I learned today in class is how to write a text file in the linux command and compile the program so that it does the function it is supposed to do.
  *This is significant because I have never made a program in any other programming language other than java.
  *I am slowly understanding c++ but I still don't understand it much.
  *A problem I am facing is finding a suitable computer to use at home.
====January 22, 2016====
  *I learned that the lab and the lecture of this class will be very different. Mainly because of the two different teachers and each uses a different operating system.
  *This is significant because I have never had a class with two teachers before, or in this case two operating systems so it will take some time to get used to.
  *I am slowly learning how both ways of recording my work can work together and have just one output.
  *I actually don't have any problems right now, I just jinxed myself so that should change soon.
====January 25, 2016====
  *I learned what my team in Joe's side of the class is today. We took a picture and now we are officially a team. Secretly our name will be "Prestige World Wide".
  *This is significant because this will be my team for the rest of the semester.
  *I am getting there with understanding how everything in this class works, but I am still a noob.
  *Still living problem free but still waiting for something unexpected to happen.
====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/output to work, but I got it.
====January 28, 2016====
  * Went more in depth with input/output today.
  * 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't before.
  * 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't calculate anything under 2001 because I set it to subtract 2000 from the original year.
  * 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't even see how they worked.
  * 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====

  * 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's friend Caillou blew up as well.
  * 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's big marbles to turn clear again and used them to remake their friends.
  * They went to remake Gogurt but Gogurt was like no I am not coming back yet.
  * Vegi was like "wat" so he left.
  * The Napkins found a new planet.
====March 28, 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.
  * I know how to use arrays and loops effectively.
  * My projects have improved because of this.
======UNIX/Linux Fundamentals Journal======
====January 19, 2016====
  * Today I used a linux based operating system for the first time. I learned how to sign in and browse the web like on other operating systems.
  * This is significant because with this I learned how to log in outside of class to work on work I need to get done.
  * I do not know at all how to use linux so it may give me some trouble in the future.
  * I just lost my gaming laptop to a failing hard drive so this will set me back until I get the money to buy a new one.
====January 21, 2016====
  *Today I learned how to submit my projects in the linux command line.
  *This is significant because this will lead into me being able to submit my work when I get it finished.
  *I am slowly understanding everything but still am unsure about how everything works.
  *I am still finding a reliable computer to work on at home so that is still giving me trouble.
====January 26, 2016====
  *Today I learned how to check what files are in each file with ls -l. I also learned how to delete files in my files on linux.
  *This is significant because I will create files that eventually need to be deleted and now I know how to do it.
  *I am getting there with learning how to use linux and slowly learning how to copy files to work on.
  *I found a reliable computer, eventually will by a new one.
====January 28, 2016====
  *Today I learned how to use touch to create a file. I also learned how to make a file unusable by changing its accessibility. Last I learned how to direct output and input.
  *This is significant because this will help me put data from different files into one file.
  *I am slowly understanding how to manipulate files and their content.
  *Had a problem copying the file for the project but found out how to do it.
====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====
