Professor is Dr. Melissa Gonzalez. Apparently, she was previously Melissa Najera, but got married and changed her last name recently. Several of the other students seem to recognize her from previous classes, and are happy to see her, so that’s a good sign. Seems to be a very animated, high-energy person.

Early class. Run by Professor Louis White. Don’t like the 8:30 in the morning schedule, but I can do it. I’ve worked jobs where I had to show up that early before. Just requires discipline. (more…)

Talking about arrays today. Maybe I’ll finally learn how to make an actual array of controls automatically.
Sleepy again. Not sure why I keep coming to this class. I don’t actually pay any attention to the professor, so I’m clearly wasting my time. I could just as easily stay home and work on my homework.
The next homework assignment involves making a Tic-Tac-Toe game. That should be a fun one.

Got our tests from last class back. 88. Not bad, and it was a fair test. There are a few questions I didn’t like, but I missed them honestly. One stupid math error, one definition I didn’t know. Half the points lost were true/false questions, which I hate and have griped about before, but at least these ones weren’t stupid trick questions. Some of the answers are things I’m inclined to argue, but they aren’t unambiguously wrong. And the grade is high enough not to justify arguing.

Getting started a bit late. Ten minutes or so. Several people in the class are concerned because the professor never emailed his powerpoint slides to us, as he indicated he would. I don’t particularly care; I never actually use those slides for anything when the professors do make them available. Some folks find them handy, though.

Got our test grades back today. Not bad. I got 112 points, out of I don’t know how many. My previous test was 120, though, and it was good, so assuming the point values are comparable, I should still be in a good range. Class average was in the 60s. Update: That translates to 80 percent. 28 correct out of 35 questions.
