Well, not really. But still. Today was spent as a class, working yet again on assignment 4! There was (again) lots of talk, because everyone had different perspectives as to how to write the program. It was the processing section, actually where we spent all our time, because there was some debate as to how to actually calculate the average speed—it was long but simple vs. short but complicated. In the end, it was decided that long and simple won, because not everyone thought in the "supposedly-complicated" way (which I fought for). However, we left headquarters gaining some new insight, and another night to work on finishing Input assignments.
Next to tackle will probably be the Selection section. I decided to read ahead a little today since I'd already finished all the Input assignments. The concept itself is not difficult at all, but there are definitely some added challenges within the assignments themselves—like making text different colours! I read the Help page in Turing, but no matter what I tried, I couldn't get it to work! I'll have to ask Mr. Arkin about it tomorrow in class.
