Hand In Date

Today we started off with a good countdown session that included a conundrum, regular word round and the numbers round again. I felt I did okay at the word rounds but then I was awful at the numbers round because I can get nowhere near the target number. I also did poorly at the conundrum because I had no clue about the word until the time was up and the word looked really simple.

We then moved on to coding again and I had to test it to make sure it would work without any errors.  I had a large error at the end because the program would not add up the total cost to paint the room and it kept displaying zero as the final answer. In the end I had to get John to fix it and from what I saw it looked massively complicated but it was fixed and it now adds up the total to two decimal places as well.

I managed to finish the Pseudo Code because after looking at the example PDF it helped me to create my Pseudo Code and it made me realise how they work too. I still need to create a testing document but I hope to have this done by the 11:59 pm deadline tonight. I feel that I should meet this deadline but I am feeling the pressure.

I enjoyed the countdown game because it helped to wake me up in the morning and it was different from our regular boring activities we usually do in the morning. I least enjoyed the coding because I had a massive problem with adding the total and it took ages to get it sorted and it turned out something was wrong with one of the variables.

Overall today was an average run of the mill day because there was lots of work to be done but there was a fun activity at the start and it was amusing to see what people in the class had typed into Google over the past month.
