Review

Today in class we were working on our reviews. We did this for the whole period. I managed to finish the first half of the review. Today we also got our group projects back. Ralph and I got 28 out of 30. We just made one mistake in trying to dummy-proofing our project. The mistake was the age if it was less than 12 or more than 18. We have a test tomorrow hopefully I do good.

Combo Box

Today Mr. Chiarelli taught us how to use combo box's and how they work. He showed us the combo boxes can be very useful when trying to dummy-proof a program. A point of using a combo box is so people don't mess up the program you just give them options. Combo boxes are useful because you can also give multiple options. Today we had some time to finish our projects. We just finished doing the finishing touches on our project. We have a review for tomorrow and a test on Friday.

Group Project

On Monday, Mr. Chiarelli showed us our group assignment. He explained it in detail the week before on Friday. We didn't get to start Friday because there was a buyout for the football game so we had a half day. On Monday, we started the project. Ralph Hipolito was my partner. We looked at the example that was shown on the board and we took the note down and applied it to our project. The was on main question but there were two bonus questions but we didn't attempt them. After the first day we printed out what we had done. On Tuesday we showed him our copy so far and he pointed are mistakes. We made basic mistakes like forgetting how to use val. We were able to finish the project at the end of class.

Repetitive Process

On Monday, Mr, Chiarelli was teaching us the concept of repetitive processing. This also known as looping. The point of looping is to repeat the same thing over and over again inless you exit or say no. The first thing you do is write a do statement. Once you do this you type what you want to appear when running the button. Using loop is very useful because you never have to start over and over again to do something.

Mathmetical Apps

On monday we started to do arithmetic operators. We learned how to do problems in visual basic by using val for equations. It was confusing first. Over the week I gradually started to understand this better. You'd use val have a question pop up ex: Click the button than it'll ask What's your average. If it was in between a certain number it'll tell you/calculate your percentage. Also on monday and tuesday we began to do some math problems and go to work on our family projects
