1.) What did you do this past week?

This past week, our group put in a lot of work and got many things working for the project. We got our database setup and were able to put and pull data. I worked on some of the instance page work and we are looking good for this phase.

2.) What is in your way?

Nothing much is in my way as of right now. I don’t really have too many big commitments other than this class so things are looking alright for now.

3.) What will you do next week?

Next week, I’ll meet up with my group to start planning for the 3rd phase of the project. We will probably start in a similar way where we sit together look at what is expected from the phase and divide up the work accordingly.

4.) If you read it, what did you think of the Interface Segregation Principle?

The paper was pretty interesting. It was a nice addition to the things we have been learning from the papers in the last couple of weeks. As with the other papers, I really enjoyed going through the examples and design choices that were mentioned in the paper. I learned a lot about interface pollution and will use these design choices in the future.

5.) What was your experience of comprehensions, yield, closures, and decorators?

I really liked learning about comprehensions. As someone who has primarily coded in Java, this was really fun to learn. Yield, closures, and decorators I have little experience with and I know I need to work on learning them better if I want to fully grasp these concepts.

6.) What made you happy this week?

It was a pretty normal week for me. I liked watching some TV with my roommates and just hanging out with them in general. Two of my friends also had their birthday this weekend so it was fun seeing them in a covid safe and socially distanced environment.

7.) What is your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?

My pick of the week is this technology on which detects what’s shown on the camera and translates it. By my testing, I was able to get many common household objects to be translated by this program such as my phone, water bottle, keys, wallet and more.
