We started the day off with the quiz! Sadly we did not do a little Small Basic tutorial because I enjoy them and learning more code. The quiz was very interesting. The video was about how you could use a sensor to control this machine. They used their hands to make the block stick up and it looked like their hands under it. The quiz questions were very hard and I don't see how people got 6/10. That just surprised me compared to my amazing score of 2/10! Surprisingly I did not come last.
After the quiz we started a team activity. We were given the information about the task and in our tables we had to design the pseudo code and the flow chart. I was in the flowchart team because I am more confident with flowcharts compared of pseudo code. In the end our table won what we were pleased with. I am getting more confident with my flow chart drawing and pseudo code for assignment three.
We also started learning about assignment three and what we had to do for it. This included trying out some of the programs what students made last year. We had to try and break them what was fun. The fifth program I put in some random letters in the post code bit and it started looping a message saying "Please enter your postcode" or something a long the lines like that. There was no way of typing while it was looping like that. Assignment three is two tasks what are the specification and the creation of the program. We made notes of the assumptions, inputs, outputs and processes of what we were going to put in our specification. I finished my notes and then designed the specification so I can start designing my program now. I will finish off assignment two first then I will design the program what will be fun.
Overall I am happy with what I have learnt today and I can't wait to start coding the program. Hopefully I wont make the mistakes like the other people did last year and hopefully it works. They are my main two goals to my program.
