Week 5 - presentations and test studying

Last week we worked on review mostly for the test that happened on Friday. In addition, we worked more on arrays and we started on timers a bit before somebody reminded Mr. Swaine that there was a test the next day and we had to study for it. I mostly remember Mr. Swaine talking a lot this week, and not much hands on time to work with the code myself. I find it a bit hard to remember what we are taught when there is no hands-on time to mess around with it and learn how it works. I'm glad I already know how arrays work from previous years.

People began to present their independent study projects this week, which means we all get to see really neat technology at the beginning of class. Since it's presented by our peers, it's usually presented in a way that everyone understands an is interested in. Presentations so far have included HP ZVR, raspberry pi, little satellite things that take hella HD photos of the earth from space(dove thinggie?), among other things. My favorite so far is GMAs, some of the animals and plants he showed seemed really cool, although the super salmon is kinda scary if it manages to get out in the wild.
