Lab 42 Reflection Journal


            For this lab we needed to create a stopwatch of sorts which had pre-made buttons as well in case the user wanted to use them instead of typing in the time himself/herself but that is a option if the user wants to type it themselves. To complete the lab multiple constants were created in order to hold information such as the end time the start time as well as the input and pre-made button information. Using this information then functions were created gathering data such as the exact time now and as well as the countdown which countdowns directly on the web page second by second which is a really cool thing as you have a digital stopwatch on you website or web page. The lab relied heavily upon JavaScript as a bunch of data was taken from the page such as the time of the buttons as well as taken from the computer which is the time which is set upon it and with the data constants were made to hold the information and functions were made in order to create this digital stopwatch.
            The skills gained from the lab are pretty cool because you see the code used to create a stopwatch and can make one for yourself. I don't know if I see myself using the code anytime soon but again having it in my back pocket is a really good thing as we expand our knowledge with more code we can utilize anytime we want when we want.

CS Fair Reflection Journal

Taken from the CS Fair website             Today we the Web Design academy had the opportunity to go to the CS Fair held within the Armory Track. At first before the entire trip even started I was wondering what we might see at this event and I really wasn't prepared for what was actually there. Once we got to the location I was astonished to see how many people actually went and even how many companies, colleges, etc were there at the fair. The place was massive and there was so many things to do, people to talk to and I was dumbfounded in where to start. The first thing I did during the fair was try the different activities they had to offer including playing with lights, driving a robot which was created to complete in a competition and was built in around 30 days which was extremely impressive. After trying the activities I then moved on to the actual fair itself and had the opportunities to talk to companies such as Facebook, Accenture, and eve...
