What did you do this past week?

I met with one of my old friends who was visiting town. So my friends and I showed him around town and took him downtown to grab some tacos. As far as school goes, last week was busy because I had a final exam in my Behavioral Ethics class and had a final powerpoint due as well in the class.

What’s in your way?

My friend visiting was a bit distracting but overall, it was still fun. I was able to catch up with school and spend quality time with my friend. What will you do next week? Next week I will start on the Deque assignment early as I did not do well on my previous project in this class. I also will have more time on my hand because this is the only CS class that is left for me in the summer. Last week I got done with my Behavioral ethics class.

If you read it, what did you think of the Paper #6: Vector? I

have yet to read the paper on Vector. But I think it will be very helpful in understanding what we have already learnt in the class thus far.

What was your experience of containers, container adapters, and allocators? (this question will vary, week to week)

My experience with containers, container adapters, and allocators was awesome. I did not find it difficult at all to understand them. I think I would still have some trouble in applying those skills due to lack of my experience, especially with allocators.

What made you happy this week?

Seeing my friend made me really happy this week. Seeing him do well and starting his new job as an EMT made me really proud as he is truly making a difference in the world.

What’s your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?

Tip of the week is to make sure that you remember that Lime does not work after 2AM. So if you need to take a scooter over, because Uber and Lyft service is busy, make sure to have the Bird app. This is because you can only operate a Bird after 2AM.
