May 1st - Genius Hour Blog #6

        Welcome back! This blog is being written after the 6th day of Genius hour where I had to opportunity to work on my own project. This past Monday was very productive, as I managed to get my SRAND/rand functions up and running along with my random number generator. There were a few kinks I still needed to work out, but I feel like it shows what I have learned pretty well. I had an issue with filtering out inputs that weren't whole numbers, or when the lowest number was higher than the highest number, but that isn't the biggest problem in world. I managed to make the program stop, but couldn't get my code to not output multiple messages if a word was inputted. Another issue was me being dumb. I spent around 15-20 minutes trying to figure out what was wrong with the program even though it told me which line the error was on. Eventually I realized I was missing a "=" so I banged my head on the table a few times after that. If all goes to plan, by the end of next Monday the error message to play before the second input. Not much reading was done yesterday, it was more of me just hoping everything worked using what I knew. I want to also use some classes next time but that is hard without a proper compiler because the online one doesn't work too well with header files. Overall, yesterday was one of my favorite days and the best part was when I finally got the range to work properly. A lot of research had to be done, but I finally figured it out. 
The problem >_<

April 4th - Genius Hour Blog #1

One of the websites I hope to learn from.          Over the last few weeks, we have been preparing our Genius Hour projects, where we will be using Mondays to learn something we want to do and present the project near the end of the semester at the "Celebration of Learning". I did an Inspiration chart which showed what I want to learn, how I would learn it, and how I would present it at the Celebration of Learning. At the end, I decided I wanted to learn C++ , and learn it through the internet (with websites like https://www.cprogramming.com) and some friends while presenting 4 practical projects at the Celebration of Learning. The whole Genius Hour concept makes me feel really good about life because it gives me something to look forward to in school. It takes the whole structured thing out of school and allows me to do something I want to do, and encourages me to do better. The main challenge I was facing was what I actually wanted to do. It really t...

Movie Maker Projects and Stopmotion Projects - April 27th 2018

Image
In the past few weeks, I've been working on some videos. I made 2 videos in Windows Movie Maker, one of which was all pictures about Pot-Bellied Pigs, and the latter which was a project I did with 2 partners, Kyle Wong and Taylor Rai. They were the actors and I was the director in our How to Hockey video. They were both a lot of fun to make and the latter is hilarious. I also did 2 Stopmotion Videos, both of which were very short and done with Taylor Rai. The first one is Pac-man being drawn, and the second one is Taylor sliding on the ground. The first one was made in Funmotion, and the latter was made with iMotion. I hope you enjoy!
