Week 9 (week of 10/29/12)

this week we worked on the deal lab and the alice lab. Also I finished the coding bat problems. the deal lab was a little daunting at first because i thought we were going to have to create objects for each door and make the output more than just integers. but then after a more thorough read of the lab instructions, I understood that it was not even aproaching that level of difficulty. as we began work on alice, it is a relativly simple program that is really just helping me to learn the syntax. for me this is a great proggram because it is simple enough for me to easily learn the syntax, while at the same time feeling like im getting somewhere. It is also complex enough so that im not bored or zipping through it. I would say that for learnng a new topic, this lab is almost perfect, but could use slightly better //comment// instructions because the ones there confused me for a few minutes about what i was supposed to do next.
