Close To Finishing!

Today we started off with a countdown session. We had to select four numbers and we had a choice of large or small numbers. Large numbers is anything more than ten and small is less than ten. We then were given a randomly generated number we had to try and equal or get close to using the numbers given. I did poorly at this task because I hate maths and I have always struggled with that side of countdown I prefer the word round because I understand English more than I do numbers.

We then continued on with coding for the rest of the day. I managed to achieve a lot and I have now nearly finished the code. All I have to do now is to make some tweaks to it and make sure that it works properly. I will then have to make some Pseudo code for the program and then it is time to hand it in.

We were shown a video about a game called No Mans Sky which apparently has more than 18 quintilion planets for users to explore. It will be released next year on Xbox One and Ps4 meaning next year I will be able to play because I have a Ps4.

I enjoyed the countdown session at the start of the day the most because it was different from what we usually do although I didn't get a single answer correct I got to enjoy watching the countdown clock. I least enjoyed the coding aspect because I started to get coding eyes and I had to keep requesting assistance and the whole thing just got really tedious.

I feel I need more help with the coding of my program like how to make sure the calculation at the end of the program is correct and I need help understanding Pseudo Code because I have to make some Pseudo Code tomorrow and I do not think I am currently capable of doing that.

Overall today was a good day as I got to enjoy some activities that we don't normally do like the countdown activity and watching a game play trailer for a game I had never heard of until today but I found certain aspects boring like the coding.
