CS371p Week 12

November 15th, 2009 by ym438

Learned alot of stuff on inheritance this week. Learned how to use the keyword virtual which allows us to bypass the usual static binding bugs. Didn’t have much time to work on Darwin so much. I would have like to spend more time on creating a best creature, but I was really tied down with my algorithms assignment and working on my japanese skit.

CS371p Week 11

November 8th, 2009 by ym438

I learned some new stuff on inheritance in c++ this week. Darwin seems like it will be fun, but with the limited action set, creating a better creature than rover will be difficult. Finished registration this week. I finally cleared a prereq problem preventing me from taking SWE. Also, is the blogs page on the class website mixed up with the SWE one?

CS371p Week 10

November 2nd, 2009 by ym438

Learned some useful things this week on defining operators. Sudoku didn’t take too long to finish. We weren’t able to think of a better way to solve it than doing a recursive brute force method. Overall, I’m glad this week is over.

CS371p Week 9

October 25th, 2009 by ym438

Finally got to C++ classes this week. Reviewed some things on instance variables, static variables, and enums. I learned that calling the constructor of a class returns a R-val. Besides that, nothing too interesting.

I have 2 tests coming up next week. I really need to study for algorithms, but Tekken 6 comes out in 2 days! Hopefully the project won’t take long so I can get some practice in.

CS371p Week 8

Took the 2nd test this week. I think I did pretty well. Pointers and arrays are no problem. I’m looking forward to designing classes next. Maybe work on some larger projects.

CS371p Week 7

October 11th, 2009 by ym438

I’m glad there wasn’t a project to do this week. Algorithms is really bogging me down with alot of work. Not much to say about OOP this week. We covered some more on the differences between stack and heap arrays and what happens under the covers of vector. Busy week ahead with tests in two classes, assignments to turn in, and a project.

On another note, I can’t wait for Tekken 6 to come out! I even ordered a HRAP3 SA stick just for it.
