I think its 5/18...

Choose one of the many topics that we have discussed so far in this course. Selection structures, repetition structures, functions, I/O etc. What have you learned about these? Have there been any surprises?


Functions in C++ are a bit different than what I expected them to be. I assumed that they were saved in a different area and when you call them you have to add the path into that call.
The prototype deals with the situation quite nicely though. I understand many people’s concerns and confusion about having to declare the variables for that function so late in the program, or that it is considered good practice to put the functions after the program. I rather like it though, for myself it seems cluttered to have something opposed to the main function coming before it.

I feel I can do better on repetition structures, I never was good at them, have a hard time deciding what loop to use and how get the loop to do what I want it to do and how many times.




My midterm discussion board for programming 1

I've decided to post some things for my business classes as well, but only major project.


For business communications we are to do a 15-20 min presentation on a topic regarding communications, this is a 2 person assignment.


We have chosen social media as our topic, I dont have much more, we just got it 2 days ago.


There is not much for intro to business, unless I can find out how to upload to a pdf doc(our final project is a paper on a any topic(mine = what defines a good leader) that has to be 5-10 pages) I'll look into it. 




For my programming 1 class our project of the week is to create a program to count the number of vowels in a sentence using void function. I think I'm almost done with it but have 1 issue with the counting loop.
