CS378 Week of 25 Sep — 2 Oct
What did you do this past week?
I worked on getting our Project 2 website up on AWS and connected our domain.
What’s in your way?
What’s in my way is learning Bootstrap and React more thoroughly. I’ve been trying to get a carousel working on the homepage of our website and it has proved to be more difficult than I initially anticipated.
What will you do next week?
Next week we will turn in Project 2 phase 1 and plan out phase 2. It should be easier now that we have the basic architecture of the website built out now.
What did you think of Paper #6: The Open-Closed Principle?
I thought it was very interesting. I have been taught since CS314 to abstract functionality when I can, and it seems to follow in line with this philosophy.
What was your experience of operators, iterators, and generators?
I have used operators and iterators before, but I have never really interacted with generators until this week. Really interesting to learn about.
What made you happy this week?
I got to lead a group of university students from Germany around UT campus.
What’s your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?
My pick of the week is that you can option-click on several lines of code to edit several of them at once!
