The weekly compsci update

This week, class was pretty tame. We did a couple of labs but none of them were too difficult. I managed to pick out how to do the first few labs and after that it was simple to use the same concepts on slightly different problems. One thing that I noticed, was how annoying order of operations could be within J creater though. We had to make a root solver (using the quadratic formula) but it just wouldn't work for my colleagues and I. After about half an hour of trouble shooting we finally realized that we just needed to put some parenthesis within the equation and it would work. This was really frustrating, because the formula was large enough that it was easy to miss something so simple. Otherwise, class has been pretty good. I am starting to understand the basics of java, and due to the miniature presentations at the start of class, I learn the concepts pretty quickly. That is all for this week, cya later.
