  Well it seems that I missed my last opus entry, but that was the first one I missed so whatever. This past week we worked on a grade figure outer in both c programming and unix. I've been working on trying to figure out how to get everything started correct. I had some code written and it just was a mess so its time to start from scratch and hand it in late. We have the end of semester experience coming up so i am sure there will be a lot of confusion and work to do in the near future. Grade figure outer is supposed to take all the info from the "status" command and input it to calculate our current grade in this class. The numerical data is not the same though. For instance the journals are graded in 1's and 0's where our projects are given a number out of the total amount of points for that specific project. The projects vary in points so it will be a little difficult to add up the points awarded and divide it with the total amount of points for that project. It will not be too easy , but I am sure with a little bit of help and some devoted time it will all come together at some point. Happy 4/20.  Well it seems that I missed my last opus entry, but that was the first one I missed so whatever. This past week we worked on a grade figure outer in both c programming and unix.

 +Well its the time of the year that we have all heard about. It is now the end of the semester experience where we have multiple projects that span what we have learned entirely throughout the course. The projects are an assortment of different ideas, but ideas that we are able to tackle from our knowledge in class. Now we are not required to be in class because there is no more teaching to cover but now class time is dedicated to working on our projects. I have a rough start on a couple of the c programs, but none are working properly. This last project is a bit stressful because I have two big projects for two classes. Both c programming class and unix have this EoCE that have to be finished but hopefully with a lot of time, the projects will sort themselves out. Next week I plan on being in both classes to get a little help on projects and break through a few barriers I am having with certain projects. This could potentially be the last "real" opus entry for this semester, but next semester I am taking two more of these classes in the LAIR so there will be many more opus entries in my future. Time to work on EoCE....

  Well it is time to take our scripting notes and put them into work with this last weeks project. We have to use a script to produce our current number grade in this course. There are a lot of pipes being used and a lot of loops also. I am still trying to figure out the best way to make the calculations. I know that you just need to take the data and send it to "bc-l". With all projects there are some difficulty and a lot of confusion on my part, but hopefully it will soon all work out. Scripting is something that is very different to me for sure. This has been the first year of programming for me so to go from java in problem solving to c and c++ this semester and now shell scripting in unix. It all is a lot to learn and it is brand new to me and my education. There is a lot of work to be done on my script, but sooner than later it will be done hopefully. We did not have class on Friday, not to hurt anyone's feelings but it was awesome to have a day off basically to do work and not have to wake up early. It gets old waking up an hour and half before class to get there early especially when I do not like mornings. Well it is time to finish this opus entry and get to class on time tomorrow to finish some work and get a few things working properly.

 +It is time for the EoCE to single handedly stress me out and force me to pull my hair out I am sure. We are given projects that vary in different processes that need to be done in order to complete them. I am excited that we have another puzzle box in this EoCE because they were some fun projects to complete. I am sure when I am doing that project I will not think it is fun but when it is all said in done I will be happy when it is all over. There is a lot of scripting in these projects which I struggle with, but hopefully with some research and time spent I will figure it out. I have been focusing on the c programs for now but hopefully next week i can get a few of the UNIX projects done. Well this could potentially be the last opus entry of this semester, but I have data structures and discrete structures next semesters so there will be many more opus entries in my near future. Time for the EoCE to wreck my life....
