Weekly Status Report #12 (April 23 - April 27)

This week we learned a few new things. One of them was different careers that involve programming. For two days we made mini presentations about the research that we did previously for the communication part of our mark. The second thing that we learned was how to use the timer control. The timer control allows you to make things happen without even clicking a button. For example, we added a timer to our slide show presentations so instead of clicking the button every time to change the picture, it changed automatically. The final thing that we learned was while loops which are like for/next loops except there is no limit to when the loop will go for. Also this week, we had another test about strings and everything that we had done since the last test.

I only had one problem this week. The problem was that my program that used the while loop and checked how many times a number can be divided by two. When I first made my program, in the parenthesis that go with the "while" I put a statement that wasn't a boolean operator so my program didn't work. Then after I added a mod operator, I put a statement in the parenthesis so the program worked.

In the future, I hope that I can finish the SIN number program that was assigned (with no errors) so I could get a good mark on that. Also, I hope that I learn more about proper programming so later on in life, if I become a programmer, I will be able to create programs that don't have any mistake with them the first time that I write them. Lastly, I hope that I have done well on the test that we had on Thursday. Bye!
