It’s over. It’s all over!! “Stress Free Bar” by Jason St. Peter. Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/fiftypercentchanceofrain/3769770467/
Redundant title is redundant. After much work, tears, sweat and a couple of sleep-deprivation sessions at the Biblioteca, we did it. Messily, and with two codes worth of work, but we did it. Montse had a lot of trouble simply getting the Magick++ library to cooperate with us and it just did not work in my computer. I really have to check it sometime… Anyway, the “good” code is the one titled Final Project.cpp, while the others are alternates with discrepancies (see Week #3). All we have left to do is wait for the reckoning to come.
Here’s the alternate (code for “sucky”) code:
Aaaand finally the good and final GitHub code link.

Entering the matrix in this moment… and never leaving it. “Matrix Code” by David Asch. Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/trinity-of-one/20562069/
Description: Creation and use of vectors and matrixes in C++.
The very last one. We are going into the matrix of codes (or the code of matrixes, rather). It’s a bit odd that these masteries find themselves separated by a gap between two other masteries, but that’s just nitpicking. Let’s go ahead and finish this trip.

Pianos are also arrays… kind of. “Piano strings” by Kevin Dooley. Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/pagedooley/6399773133/
Description: Creation and use of arrays and strings in C++.
Wait, I didn’t know strings were arrays! Just kidding, we have to know all about arrays and strings if we want to make more complicated code, and it’s always useful to know that you can do one thing in more than one way.
That said, I leave you with the video explanation.
Wait, these aren’t the nests we are looking for! Photo by Flood G. Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/_flood_/11441206354/
Description: Use of “switch” as a conditional and nesting of conditional statements.
Just like the description says, there’s nothing like the nesting of conditionals… which can get a little confusing, but they’re important to take into account.
Video right here.
Infinity is the dove. Maybe it’s a Moebius dove. “The Infinite Loop” by Faruk Ates. Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/kurafire/377684448/
Description: Use of loops with “while” and “for”.
We’re gonna loop until we die… or the condition of the function is met. Either way, these are the basics of programs which use loops, and why they’re so useful.

Those post-its are amazing aren’t they? “Got Feedback?” by Alan Levine. Link: https://www.flickr.com/photos/cogdog/14279306964/
Description: Basic output (printing) and input (text based) in C++.
Learning to print text in a code and let the user input some more of their own. We understand the andvantages of output and input in this mastery.

After having done the #Quiz11, this WSQ was one of the easier ones, even if it took a lot of digging in StackOverflow and cplusplus.com, looking at details of semi-finished code from beginners (like me, obviously) with the same problems as myself.
e’s an awesome number, check the GitHub code link for the WSQ.

Downloading the BigInteger library and making it work is the first step to make this WSQ, and I hadn’t downloaded it so this took some time… It was easy afterwards, and whenever you get stuck it is always a good idea to pay the guys at cplusplus.com a visit. It is also good to see what others are doing and try to do it yourself since the working environments are different for everyone.
The code is, as always, hiding in plain sight.
