  You can work with up to three people (you MUST work with at least one other person)          Lex, Tim, Brandon What was your strategy for solving the assignments?          I wanted to start early in order to get a good idea of the size of the project and how much time would need to be dedicated to it. I followed through the instructions as specified and was able to get a large portion of the project done on the first day.   What was THEIR strategy for solving the assignments          The consensus was to make sure that the work was done in consistent amounts over the assignments timeframe. Making sure not to need any 'crunch hours'.           How would you change your strategy having worked on the assignment?               I wouldnt. I was able to pace myself well and get everything done in the time frame without issue. According to...

 Project 1 review Summarize the feedback you received about your code from your peers          Code functions and is commented well.           Identify any trends you noticed when evaluating the code of others          We all had a pretty smooth time working on the project. Instructions were very clear and easy to understand. Was any part of the code a struggle for YOU?          No sections caused any struggle. Was any part of writing the code easy for YOU?          Not necessarily the easiest, but I enjoyed writing the attackModifier() method. What is your biggest victory?          Staying on top of commenting and keeping comments insightful.           Who did you work with?          My teammates; Brandon, Tim, and Lex What improvements would you make to your code/what was s...

     This week I worked on a Markov text generator and had fun with the assignments use of data structure interaction. The interesting parts was working with nested data structures, specifically using an ArrayList within a HashMap. It was satisfying to see how the program could build and store chains of words efficiently, leading to some surprisingly coherent (and sometimes hilarious) generated text.      The most challenging unit test for me was addBadLineTest(), but not because of any deep logical error just a small oversight. I had correctly stripped whitespace from each input line but accidentally used the untrimmed version of the string when passing it to the addWord() method. Once I realized my mistake, it was an easy fix. The overall project only took a couple of hours and it was a fun way to get more practice with HashMaps.      Overall, it was a fun and productive first week, and I’m looking forward to tackling more challenges...

Part 1 AI Companionship https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMosL8QPaTo 1. is the topic well covered?      Yes. 2. is the presentation clear?      Yes. 3. how is the quality of the research?      Very informative. Gives lots of information on the topic. 4. how is the quality of the video production?      Good. Clever use of AI voices to help with the concept of AI companionship. 5. is the video engaging and interesting?      Yes. Plenty of visuals to go along with thier information. 6. is the team work evident?      I imagine. The voices are AI so you cant tell who wrote what, but I imagine the project was a team effort. 7. is the video appropriate to the audience (either general public or technology professionals)      Yes. It was fun and engaging and makes for a good general audience introduction to the topic. Use of AI to Prevent Cyber Attacks https://www.y...
