Today, we learned how to trace the execution of code, and learned how to desk check.
Or, in other words, when we read the code of execution, we are able to know the outcome that is going to be in the run window. So, in order to do this, you have to think like a computer! ;D
I think this is fairly easy for me to master because before I knew about desk checking, I was already using this method! :D
Mr. Arkin had said that this is the most valuable skill that we are going to learn in this course. I agree with him! Half of the period, we were practicing how to deck check with our partner's most difficult and sophisticated code (from our input assignments). I had an easy time! I solved it in no time flat! =)
After that, Mr. Arkin introduced us to Arithmetic operators and Relational Operators. When he mentioned the 'boolean values', at first I thought it might be something complicated because he also mentioned that the Boolean value was named after "Dr. George Boole" (a mathematician), but then when he explained what the boolean values are, it was actually pretty interesting!
(Boolean values are <true> <false>) pretty cool, huh?
Overall, I think programming (input) is pretty easy! ;D
Tomorrow, we're going to start a new unit! Selection!
good night, guys! =D
wow... this is the longest post I ever wrote. \^o^/
