CSC104 SLOG

I have realized by now that the best way to study for CSC104 material is by doing the weekly labs exercise and to review the lecture material at the end of each week. The lab practices especially are an accurate representation of what the quizzes are going to look like. Thus, they provide a reliable source for practice and preparation before the quizzes. Additionally, I would say that doing past test helped to write the first term test, because thanks to that practice I got used to the format of evaluation. As well as the material that I should give more focus. Undoubtedly there is some topics that I should study more than others, such as Sierpinski images.   Although I really like the concept behind them and their appearance, especially their self-similarity, it still confusing for me how to build a definition for a Sierpinski image. However, I have been trying to overcome this problem by practicing alone the creation of new definitions with base    ...

I choose CSC104 for several reasons, such as my curiosity and studies. I always wanted to know how programing feels like. Specially, in this world where the technology is always developing and interacting with ourselves is necessary to know about how programs work. Additionally, CSC104 will provided with the basis for my developing knowledge and for a better understanding of Cognitive Sciences which is my current major.   Having said that, I expect that the course will give me the basic tools to understand in deep some of the computer concepts and theories that I study. I always thought that programing was going to be boring, but I was wrong. In this course, I realized that learning the different commands and concepts is interesting. I had this pre-concept of programming because I previously had learned how to use some FSL, which has many differences with Dr. Racket. This is because FSL is predominately for fMRI analysis, while DrRacket is more a multi-paradigm program. That i...
