LED


LED 1: Here's our LED thing, it wasn't working at first. The light has a long wire and a short wire, and it matters which one goes where. When I reversed the wires it worked.



LED 2: Here's the new setup for LED 2 and 3. It didn't work at first, so Abby helped us fix our configuration. After the configuration was fixed and the code was double-checked, both 2 and 3 worked smoothly.

Marconi Feedback

I really enjoyed the coding and decoding activity with the enigma simulators. I didn't realize the enigma machines changed their settings with each letter pressed, and changed differently depending on which letter was pressed. It was interesting that if one letter was wrong in the coding, then the decoding would all be off from that letter on. Ed Giorgio was very interesting in his presentation, although I definitely lost him at points when he got too far into technicalities. I liked starting out with the introductory videos just to put everything into context before seeing the rest of the museum, and I liked exploring the phones and shark tags and the rest of that exhibit last. I think, considering my perceived interest level in and general knowledge of the topics covered, they did a good job keeping me interested. I am very grateful to them for taking the time to show us all of the history and technology within the museum.

Create Task Day 4

Today was very productive in terms of functionality. I used enumerate to make it so when you enter a correct letter it shows up in the list and prompts you to enter another letter. Now I have to add an option selection and more code to make you lose a life when you guess a wrong letter. Scale 1-10: 4

CS50 Hello World

Today we started edX coding with C. I started by making a folder called unit1, then a folder within unit1 called hello. In here I made a file named hello.c. I edited this file by writing a code that is meant to display a message. After writing the code, checked my directory by typing ls to make sure I was in my hello folder, and then typed make hello. This executed the code, creating a new file in the hello folder called hello. I checked to make sure this worked by typing ls, and hello* and hello.c came up. Hello had an asterisk meaning it can be executed. I then typed ./hello, running the executable hello file, and displaying the message "hello, world." I then changed the hello.c file code so make it say "Hi Abby!" I saved the code. I typed make code in the directory in order to change the executable file, then typed ./hello to run the code. It displayed "Hi Abby!" The purpose of this lesson was to begin to learn how computers work using C. I mistook on
