This week, we only created two programs but hose programs were much more sophisticated and more complex that the other ones. One of them was creating a program that converted fahrenheit into celcius. At first, we made this program with a textbox that the user entered the fahrenheit temperature into and then when you click a button, it will convert it but then later, we used a trackbar (which was a new tool) to change the fahrenheit degrees. The other program was one that demonstrated different types of string functions and it used a listbox (which was a new tool). Along with those programs, we also wrote an essay about web awareness and learned about different types of variables like boolean, byte, etc.
One of my main problems that I had this week was with the string function program. while I was working with it at home, I couldn't figure out how to do some of the different functions. When I came to school the next day, my teacher helped my a lot and she taught me how to do the functions. Another big problem that I had was with the temperature program. Every time that I ran the program, there would be an error that would show up. The error was that when I made my trackbar minimum, I made it the same number as the fahrenheit temperature so it was a negative number. I soon found out that that was what was causing the error and now I know that you are not able to set a trackbar minimum to a negative number so you have to compensate that by increasing the maximum.
Next week, I would like to learn more about string functions and how to use them effectively so they can work well in different programs. I also would like to keep up my good marks on my tests since this week we also got back our second test and I got perfect. Overall, this week was pretty fun and I would like to continue making complex programs.
