MONTH Day, YEAR

This is a sample format for a dated entry. Please substitute the actual date for “Month Day, Year”, and duplicate the level 4 heading to make additional entries.

As an aid, feel free to use the following questions to help you generate content for your entries:

  • What action or concept of significance, as related to the course, did you experience on this date?
  • Why was this significant?
  • What concepts are you dealing with that may not make perfect sense?
  • What challenges are you facing with respect to the course?

Systems Programming Journal

Yet again for no reason other than I have trouble posting things I have learned because I never know what exactly to say. So here I go, I have done quite a bit this semester! I have explored multiple different Linux operating systems and currently configuring my very own home server! I have Learned about about threading, forking and general concurrency. Concurrency is when your program is broken into sub units that all work together to get a single job done. Threads and forks are similar yet different because with forks we had to have each fork write its values into a text file then read each one back in the correct order. Threads still elude me but I have had some ideas that I have been unable to complete that I believe when implemented correctly they will work and pretty efficient as well! Prime numbers are cool, I really enjoy creating an efficient program and comparing them to friends, healthy competition is great for progress in my opinion.
