WORK PERIOD # 2

This is the second time that I forgot that today is a late start................=_=.
Anyways, Mr.Arkin is not here today again, so we had another work period.

Oh yeah, good news, the test is gonna be next week instead of this week!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am soooo happy, but kinda bored because don't have other homework.

Substring assignments would be easier if Mr.Arkin explain it, but after working with my awosome classmates, I manage to get some done in class and at home. ^_^

WORK PERIOD

"Work period" I have probably used this title for millions of times.............well Mr. Arkin is away today so we have a work period. We have to read the substring page thingy and do the substring assignments as much as we can.

Substring is a subset of characters treated as a whole. An example of the assignment (question )would be : Gather a word from the user and display its letters one per line. That is when the power of substring come in.

WORKING<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SO MUCH FUN>>>>>>>>>>>

Turing show off !

Today in class we had our turing show off, which is when someone want to show their program to the class..........well, no one wanted to do it, so Mr. Arkin showed one of his "short" program. It's really cool, and short.........if you can call 350 line of code short.


I fiinished my repetition assignments, so I don't have homework this week. Although, I have to study for the test sometime next week.

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND GUYS>>>>>>>>>>>>>HAVE FUN !!!!!!!!

Oh yeah I saw the coolest shirt ever.......it says

HOMEWORK KILLS TREES

How to be successful in ICS

1) reading with precision
2) break a sulution into a order set of steps
3) visually contents of memory

Those are the three things that we need in order to be successful in ICS.

HEHE mid-term mark ^_^

Today we got our mid-term mark!!!  I did ok in every subject except for ICS, it shows that I need to work harder on it.  :p
We learned ARRAY today, and we have to modifiy repetition assignment 12..........working on it...............................-_- ZZZZZ
Just joking..........HEHE ^_^
Anyways, array can be really useful because it saves the programmer's time and effort from typing the varibles and prompts over and over again.

SOPHIA -_-ZZZZ

P.S. I'M SOOOOOOO TIRED

repetition assignmnet = finish

-_- Despite the fact that Mr.Arkin didn't see my printer assignment, today was alright. ^_^
We learned not to put dot or blank spaces between the file name and use special character entities only when using special characters.

OH YEAH! I finished the repetition assignments!!!!!

Sophia Luo >>>>> [ |||||OOOO_OOOO|||| ]

WORKING ON REPETITION

It's another work period, we get to work on our repetition assignment. I finished up to assignment 10, it was not really hard, so it means I am getting better at programing. ^_^

I don't have much to write about......................ICS since everything is alright.

Sophia Luo *_*

P.S OK dispite what other people think the science test was soooooooooooooooo hard, and the english test was sooooo easy. *What am I doing?*

Reviste of HTML

     We got another HTML assignment after what feels like a year since what did HTML stuff. Not that I have a problem with it ^_^. To be honest, I am probably one of the few people who actually like HTML more than turing. Well, out assignment is called Printer Comparison assignment.
      We also have to modify our repetition assignment number 8, which I already complete.

Sophia ^_^

P.S. long weekend for students.....this is how I feel  ↓

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!!!

50th POST!!

OMG!!! This is my 50th blog posting and guess what, this year is Vic Park 50th anniversary. *clap* *clap*
I am soooo hyper today, probably because too much coffee.

Well, we did in class was  the repetition assignments. First, we switched our assignment number 6 with a partner and we have to desk check it and give feedbacks. After, we continuted to work on the rest of the assignments. I spend alomost the whole class working on assignment 6, just to make it perfect. ^_^

Sophia O_^

AHHHHH science homework due tomorrow!!! GOOD LUCK to the people who are having their test on ecology tomorrow!

continue working on repetition

First thing we did in class today was complete a survey, it is about what you like about ICS class and what you do like and what you want to see in the future. I think it is very useful because it gives Mr. Arkin an idea of what way students like to be taught.

Second of all, we were suppose to hand in one of our best repetition assignment for Mr. Arkin to mark. For mine, I made a few mistakes. I did not put the varibles in alphabetical orders.

For homework, we have to complete repetition assignment 5, 6, and more if you can.


Sophia >_<

P.S. OMG my blog are soooo short compare to some people's!!!!!!!!

A day to catch up

The first thing I did when I waited outside my ICS class was look at my mid-term average O_O.......all I am going to say is that that are a lot of room for improvement, and have to work harder.

In class, it was a work period for the people when finished their repetition assignment to work on the rest of the questions and for those who did not or did it wrong, they get to correct their work. Mr. Arkin gave us a model code repetition assignment 2, that helped me a lot because my code was kind of long, so that helped me make mine more efficient. For homework, we have to finish repetition assignment 3,4 and 5, and print the code out.

I am working on assignment 5, wish me luck ^_^!

Repetition

Finally! repetition! the "Introduction to repetition." is actually pretty easy, I understand what Mr.Arkin was teaching and finished 1 of 4 part of the homework for the weekend in class. We took note of some statement of repetition code and some key word that is contains. Some examples would be loop, exit, when.

An example of the statement:

% Display the integers from 0 to 13.

% declaration section

const DELAY := 1500
const COUNTING_LIMIT := 13
var integer : int
% initiation section
integer := 1

% processing and output section

loop
    put integer
    delay (DELAY)
    integer := integer + 1
    exit when integer > COUNTING_LIMIT
end loop

% extro

put skip, "DONE"

Remembrance day

lest we forget

We had our remembrance day assembly today.

In class, we made a model answer sheet for our unit test, it made me realize how much questions I did not explain fully. We got our test back right after...........have to do way better next time.

Sophia U_U

unit test today!!!

We had our first unit test today!!!!! I make soooo many simple mistakes..........like 0.2 * 50 is 10.........how did I wrote 100........how did I even got 100% on math last year.......

well our whole period was used up by the test, so we did 10minute of reading after.

Sophia *_*

Questions and Test tomorrow

OOOOH!!!! Test tomorrow!!!!

So our class asked many questions regarding the test, they are really helpful, it help me review the terms and definition for them. We also learned something new, counter and accumilater.

Short blog cause i have study for the test, maybe I will edit it later

Monday : Group Presentations + party

We had to present our poster that we did for the elements of Mr. Arkin's selection assignment 7 code, our group went last. Since, groups are not allow to repeat what the previous group have said, we did not have a lot of info to say. I also learned thing that our group did not wrote on the poster from that other groups.

We got our quiz back today as well....... I made the simplest mistake, I am sure it won't happen again.

Despite that we have a test soon, we had a party today!!!!
Congrats Mujtaba ^_^

anyways............going to write today's blog..........

Sophia ^_^

quiz again

For ICS, my class finished our poster for the elements of Mr. Arkin's model Selection Assignment code and we had our second quiz for ICS today. Oh my god, I am sooooo tired.

GOOD NIGHT EVERYONE AND HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

Sophia ^_^

Desk checking

Today for ICS, we desk checked Mr.Arkin's model Selection Assignment #6. Well, as you guys already know, the skill of desk checking is very important, you will NEED it in order to succeed in ICS. Apparently,
our exam is going to take place in a room that has no computer what so ever, so what we can do in DESK CHECK!!!
For homework, we have to desk check three of our selection assignment just to practice desk checking, I am actually doing my fourth one now. I didn't think I would say this, but it is kind of fun. ^_^

Sophia ~_~

work period

I had a work period today in ICS , edit later

Loop

First of all, happy brithday to George Boole, he was the inventor of the Boolean Algebra. *clap* *clap*
Today in class, we learned some new keywords, which are case and loop.

An example of the use of case:


case destination of
   label "YHM", "YOW", "YYZ":
      % Ontario destinations
      gate := "gate 15."
   label "YQB", "YUL":
      % Quebec destinations
      gate := "gate 37."
   label "YLW" "YQQ", "YVR", "YYJ":
      % B.C. destinations
      gate := "gate 6."
   label:
      % unknown destination
      gate := "information desk."
end case

put "Please proceed to ", gate

It is easier than the IF statement when there are a lot of varibles.

The propose for LOOP is basiclly to repeat the statement in

loop

end loop

Sophia ^_^

Oh yeah... Take Your Kids to Work Day tomorrow, have fun guys!!!!

selection catch up!!

It turns out that some of my selection assignment are not well organized, fixing them...........
