2.8 Coding: Final Countdown

 Hello friendos.     This is the last week.  I can not express how much I am happy to be done.  Though I want to code in the future, the copying from the book into the computer was not fun, it was tedious.  In the future, with the practice this strife brought me, I'll be able to type my own code.  I had many problems to deal with from computer viruses to real viruses.  I don't know if either of those were actual viruses but it sounded cooler.  I decided that for the blog I will jump to the end of the book.  The book is just copying so the coolest thing, which I assume is at the end will be the best.  I will not say what the final code is, mostly because I don't know what it is.  I will assume it's cool.  Now I've actually have to make in actual TED Talk and now improvise on the spot. I don't believe there will be a next, so goodbye.     -Cade

Blog 2.7: Nothing New

Image
Hello friends,     I don't have much to say this week again.  I've just been copying code from my guide.  I've gotten to the point to where now I can create inputs like clicking or hitting keys, or at least that is what I believe this chapter means (see below).  Other than that, I have just been chugging away at the coding.  Nothing exciting has occurred, I have just been finishing code.  This week is the last week.  I have accomplished little and will have to improvise another TED talk.   I feel bad for whoever evaluates my short, crappy blogs. Until next time               -Cade  

Blog 2.6: Virus

Greetings friends,     I don't have much this week.  I worked a little but I was sick two different times this week, so I didn't have much time to work when just sitting up was agonizing for my organs or I spend every other ten minutes on the toilet.  I barely coded this week but I'll have more next week. Here's a picture of a Siberian musk deer for whoever has to review my blog.  Until next time,               -Cade

Blog 2.5: Numbers Game

Image
Hello my friends,     This week, I have finally accomplished something.  I worked on the little game the book wanted me to make.  It took a bit more coding than I had normally done, but it was worth it.  The game is a simple number guessing game.  You type in a number between 1 and 10 and the game will tell you if you are right or wrong.  I have provided a picture of the look of the game.     This may not be much, but I'm proud of it.  I'm sad I wasn't able to link the game to the blog, I tried last night.  This week's blog is short, but I will have new content next week, not sure what, but it is hopefully good.     Until next time,               -Cade

2.4 The WaterBlog

 Hello my friends.     I will be blunt, I have not done a single thing over the five day break.  I was like "I can be productive!  I can work on my coding!" Nope.  I didn't even look at my coding book.  I spent the break playing 'theHunter: Call of the Wild' on my computer and ice spear fishing with my dad.  So between the choice of working on coding or, in a non-psycho way, killing animals both virtually and in reality.  I chose the latter.      I accomplished very little this week.  I had sat at my computer Wednesday and did homework until approximately 5 o'clock,  I took a quick break and sat on the couch for a quick break.  I was like "I will watch a quick ten minute YouTube video to unwind."  Next thing I know, I was waking up at 8 p.m. drenched in sweat.  I tried to work on coding but my brain was as waterlogged as my clothes.   My codes were still not functioning properly, and neither w...

Coding 2.3: Strife and Struggles

Hello, my friends.     I have given up on the "royalty" way of talking.  I grew tired of it.  Anyways, my coding is going find, or I'd like to say.  I couldn't get my codes to open with Google Chrome.  My first worked just fine, but my third, didn't.  I don't know what was wrong but it wouldn't open properly.  I tested by creating an exact clone of my second code.  However, that code also wouldn't open properly.  I tried altering copies, editing codes, and I even quadruple checked my codes, but I couldn't find what was wrong.     I don't know what is wrong with my computer, so I didn't accomplish much this week.  Luckily, I was at the end of the section of the book I'm learning from.  The end was mostly reading about the different parts of the code: head, body, style, etc.  The next section is about making a game so I'm excited for that.  Another lucky strike for me is there is a five day weekend next w...

Coding 2.2: The Beginninging

Image
 Greetings my surfs.     This week I have begun practicing the runic language known as coding.  My first challenge was to actually track down the tome I was to use for my studies.  My mother began to live in her new home when the days were long and hot, and I left a majority of my belonging in the cardboard containers.  After a gallant treasure hunt for the book, I had rediscovered it! The title of the grimoire is The Gamer's Guide to Coding , as shown with the power of electric magics.  This specific literature was written by a scholar of the name, Gordon McComb.  I have only progressed about a score of pages into the tome, and the runes I am producing confuse me.  I use a special spell craft program called "Atom."  Atom provides the power to the runes to produce words and images from abnormal phrases.  Such phrases are shown below: The runic language!  I have only created three runes following these templates, and they were s...
