week 4

I have been terrible at posting in this blog, so I am some weeks behind with my blog right now.
This post is about the Kelvin/Fahrenheit/Celsius converter I did during week 3. I did write a fully functional code but realized that I just used ordinary functions, when the assignment was to create a class.
I had some problems understanding classes and splitting code into header and cpp files before, but completing this assignment greatly helped me understand how this worked. The […]

Week 3

This week’s lectures have mostly been focused on classes and using header files in visual studio. I find that I can keep up somewhat during the lectures, but have a bit of a challenge when I try to use what I have learned. The weekly exercise assignments greatly help me to really understand how to implement the things we hear about during the lectures. This week’s exercises are much harder to solve then earlier weeks (would be strange if they […]

Sorting Arrays

This is the second week of this course and we are still moving in a fast pace. My prior experience with programming in Java (four years ago) helped me to keep up during the first week, but this week’s assignments were a challenge for me.
One of these assignments were to sort an array filled with randomly generated numbers. There are many different ways you can sort an array in C++, each with benefits and disadvantages. The first method I tried […]

First week of programming

After almost five years I now return to programing. Prior to beginning this course I have had some experience in using Java but not at any advanced level. Having written code before helped me to understand all the lectures so far, but I have a feeling that with the speed we move on to new things I’ll be lost next week.
Being the first week I don’t really have any interesting code to talk about. The most fun exercise was to […]

Space shooter concept- First meetings

This is my first real blog post ever and it will be short. Hopefully I will write better and more relevant post as I progress and have more to say about my work.
On Wednesday the 8^th we had our first group meeting. In this meeting we introduced us to each other and then began to throwing out ideas to see what would stick, to get a sense of what we could do for our project. Our assignment is to make […]
