Entry 1: October 5, 2012
I came up with the question after doing project 2; Is it possible to create a file that can not be opened with the keys we learned (“”,\,*)?
Entry 2: October 30 2342
I come from the future to notice that there are two separate experiments showing up on my opus page. Does that mean that I had an experiment due and didn't realize it? Must ask Matt when I go back in time again to visit his class.
Entry 3: October 30 2012
Realized I completely destroyed my last entry and can't recover it (with my current knowledge). Must Ask Matt what might have caused it when I go to class.
Entry 4: The freaking last day of October, 2012
A major question came up: how in the depths of Hades do you seperate single phrases (I can't think of how to word it) out of sed regular expression, from the part you're deleting. I know about [^ ] but I have no idea to make it work. Also, is it possible to take a single sed expression and do ANYTHING without making a new sed expression? The world may never know.
