CSC148 keeps getting more and more interesting for me. This week, we finished off exceptions and started recursions. I cannot say that I am very happy with recursions, as it is similar, or same as mathematical induction. It seems to be pretty confusing, and will need practice which is unfortunate. I didn't really enjoy anything more than the ordinary in class, however the talk about assignment 1 was helpful in my opinion. Thanks for that Dan. I feel that I am not ready for assignment 1 yet, so I have to start on it as soon as possible so that I have enough time to finish it.

I found this week's lab pretty exhausting. It was not as easy as last week's and the test cases are pretty frustrating. I finished it though, which was an accomplishment as in CSC108 I barely finished the whole thing. Furthermore, I also like my new TA. She seems like a nice person, and is always helping me out. Good job Dan, you chose a good TA. The last thing I want to mention this week is the exercise for this week, E2. I got full marks for it, and although it was perhaps quite easy and much shorter than E1. I still felt proud at the end, and I think I like the idea of exercises. In addition to that, I also like how we get auto-correct sessions before the date so that we can check. Thanks for reading, have a great weekend!
This week was very interesting for me. I believe that CSC148 is more interesting than CSC108, although Professor Zangaro says otherwise. I feel that my understanding of classes has become much better in the past 2-3 weeks because of CSC148. I am always practicing classes and I am quite proud of myself. I find that I am enjoying more what is being taught in CSC148, than CSC108 and I found this week's lab very fun as well. It didn't take nearly as long as all the others, and it was nice to make my own queues.

 Exceptions seem interesting to me, as even though there is an error, the program still runs. I am a bit confused about passing a function in a function, which is quite unfortunate as exercise 2 and assignment 1 requires knowledge in it.
