James Gosling is a very important person as Ward Cunningham is, he is the inventor of Java which is maybe the most important programming language. He says that after writing code his whole life and being a manager he still prefers coding. He’s a very prepared guy, he entered in the Computer Science when he was like 14 years old and he also has worked in very important companies like google and sun microsystems (ORACLE).

#WSQ 13-James Glosing

The rest of the video he talks about a lot of things that I don’t get it yet, as well as on the WSQ 12. I find something in common with these two guys that the teacher told us to watch the video, both of them started in a young age and they were passioned about Computer Science. Right now I’m disagree with him for what he says about management, I’ve already taken the Administration course and I really like it, I think that proyect management is really cool an important for getting a proyect done well and in time.

#WSQ 13-James Glosing

Now I know why in our study plan there are subjects like Administration and Fundamentals of Software Engineering, in these courses we don’t write code, is about planning and If I want to be a Software Project Manager in the future I will have to develop my planning skills.

He also talks that one of his first proyects was a graphic proyect, I’m really interested in the graphic stuff, If I want to develop my graphics habilities I guess I will have to know this man in a better way.

Ward Cunningham

What am I think about this guy? Well, I’m really impressed because this guy is the creator of Wiki.

¡Trust me! I’m not kidding.

This post is about to share my thoughts on Triangulation Chapter 239. First of all when I see the duration of the video I was like ¡Oh sh*t! This is going to be boring but at the end it was very interesting. The vision of one guy who has contributed on Wiki, Eclipse and Relic is amazing.

Wiki’s has changed the way of how we look information, this platform is open source and every one can make it works. Adding verified information, helping to translate into another languages, etc. and in this way Wiki grow up a lot. “Wikipedia is one of the most beautiful things the Internet can achieve (Laporte)”.

Here’s the complete Interview . Enjoy it!

</College Advice>

In the words of Joel Spolsky, “if you enjoy programming computers, count your blessings: you are in a very fortunate minority of people who can make a great living doing work they enjoy“. I wanted to start this way because this lines are very important to me. Many of the programmers worldwide don’t enjoy coding and they do this just because money.

At the beginning you should know what you want to study because it is really difficul to make the right decision and this happened to me, I was afraid and I was not sure if in my other degree I would succeed. Now, I feel comfortable in the field of computer science and at least I think I made the right decision.

Here are Joel’s Seven Pieces of Free Advice for Computer Science College Students (worth what you paid for them):

  1. Learn how to write before graduating.
  2. Learn C before graduating.
  3. Learn microeconomics before graduating.
  4. Don’t blow off non-CS classes just because they’re boring.
  5. Take programming-intensive courses.
  6. Stop worrying about all the jobs going to India.
  7. No matter what you do, get a good summer internship.

WSQ 12 – Ward Cunningham

--Originally published at diegotc2016

The video is about Ward Cunningham which is a very important person in the world of computing. He’s very known because he invented the “wiki” and developed part of ecllipse and small talks.

The video is about a guy who is interviewing Cunningham and hje basiclly talks about how he created wiki and some other important technology advances.

WSQ11 – Library Assignment Programming Fun

--Originally published at diegotc2016

I think that the web pages the teacher gave us, are going to be really usefull. During the summer I’m planning to do a lot of programming in Java, because I’m still having a lot of progblems with Java. This WSQ was more or less hard for me, the great part is that some part of the code was already done and that helped me for making the program work.

Here are some photos of the code in java:

I think this WSQ has been the most enriching task. Just a few days before Ken posted the assignment I was thinking about asking some of my teachers about college advice because I’ve noticed that I’m not a very good programmer as I could be. So these tips have helped me to know the way on how to become a better programmer but it all depends on how I implement those tips.

The tips Joel Spolsky gave are:

  1. Learn how to write before graduating.
  2. Learn C before graduating.
  3. Learn microeconomics before graduating.
  4. Don’t blow off non-CS classes just because they’re boring.
  5. Take programming-intensive courses.
  6. Stop worrying about all the jobs going to India.
  7. No matter what you do, get a good summer internship

I think the most important tips first of all is learning C, as he said C is like the god of all programming languages so if after graduating I wanna have a good job I must lear C.

Another great tip is to don’t blow off non-CS classes just because they’re boring. This CS classes I think are the AEV, EVAP, Ethics and those kind of subjects, so I better make my best in this courses because they are the ones that make your final carrer grade better and most of the recruiters check on how your grade is in order to get a job.

Finally another tip that I find important is to take programming-intensive courses. A friend of mine that is studying these degree too told me that also. My friend told me that taking these kind of courses gives you the better job when you’re graduating.

#WSQ09- The Movies (Still not finished)

This WSQ was really hard I have to search for a lot of documentation, I look to this assignment in python and I searched for other classmates assignment.

Here is a picture of my entire code so that you can understand it better: ****file is WSQ 09***

WSQ07-Babylonian Method

--Originally published at diegotc2016

Doing this wsq was more or less difficult for me because I’m still having problems with the syntaxis of Java. First I tried to “translate” my old code in Python to Java, but my program didn’t work, but I finally got the code right.

Here’s a video that helped me for this WSQ:

I tried to do the WSQ using this guy method but the console displayed an error

Here’s my code in Eclipse using as an input number 36:
