Today was the first day of class. We went over the basics, what we will be learning throughout the semester, what the professor expects, and so on. We were also shown how to login to “lab46” via the terminals. I am looking forward to this semester and this class. I have some previous knowledge with C/C++ and spent some time researching it so I think it should help me out a little.

The second day of lecture we went over some basics about how to start a program and went over some binary, octo,etc. Then we got into how to set up our bitbucket repo with our lab46 account so we can push, pull, commit, and so on via the terminals.

I have reviewed our next assignment due next week. I am having some issues trying to figure out how sucessfully ask for users input and how to store their input and compute the square root of said numbers. I am reading up more on how to sucessfully do so and I think I grasped the idea of how to do and I believe I can now jump in on my next program!

We were presented the project “dow0” which makes us create a program using a series of mental math techniques to calculate the day give any year within the 21st century and the program in the end needs to output which day that falls on.
