I’m advancing, steb-by-step (as my old english books were named). So, now, WSQ#08, it’s basically WSQ#03 revisited. I found info here , Lynda.com is really a lifesaver, and working while in class and listening to AMON AMARTH!, I love viking metal! Death, wars, interesting gods (yeah, what we have around here is boring as fuck). Oh and also, I went to the movies, twice, to watch Deadpool, and it is so fucking awesome and funny, I thnk it’s squeezing it’s way to the top of my favoite movies. Enough chit chat, let’s move on, so, the program was quite easy, it’s just #03 with a name of each operation. Here it is:

So, as you can see, you name each operation you’ll use, addition, substraction, product, and division, not to forget the remainder of hte division if you need it for some reason.

Here’s the exe:

Ok now, I think numer 9 is gonna be a bit harder and I also didn’t finish quiz #3, so that’s what’s next. Later!

I’ve been working on some other stuff for the past few days and didn’t pay attention to the work I’m supposed to be doing here, but now I’m back and let’s move forward. WSQ#07 is a Sum of numbers, but not x+y, it is the sum of all the numbers between x and y, it wasn’t that hard, so, I’m feeling ready for the exam.

Here goes the code in Atom:

And the program:

And as the program says: Have a nice day!

That page cplusplus.com is really helpful. I had to search there for the use and application of the random command. You have to set the <time.h> library so the pc won’t repeat the numbers and  set the time to NULL, this took me a while to figure out cause I was setting it to 0 and the program wasn’t compiling. So, here are the pics of the code (quite long, this one):

And the exe:

I think this is gonna be it for the day, I have so much more stuff to do but I gotta work on something else right now. Thanks for reading.

This was a very, very simple assigment, although I’m currently having problems with my internet provider and have an astounding 0.3-1.6 mbps connection (of my paid 25…) it’s getting pretty hard to load any damn website, but I made it and may I say, SCHOOL SUCKS. The system sucks, the government sucks, everything around sucks, PERIOD.

Those concepts of flipped learning, the letters from the concerned students, do you need more evidence? It’s pretty obvious that the way schools have been working for decades are no longer working, we live in an increasingly difficult and shitty society where you have to at least have that little stupid paper that states “You have finished school with X and Y grades, that makes you a (insert field of study here)”. That’s bullshit. Grades aren’t everything, grades don’t make you an engineer, or a doctor, a lawyer, or anything, there’s people who quit school and are earning millions and millions of dollars because they excelled at something and they took a chance to tweak life a little, and with that amount of vision and expertise on whatever they are good for, they are now at the top of the world.

You have guys like Zuckerberg, Jobs (RIP), Gates, and many more, some of them don’t even have a high school diploma, but they learned, they learned with friends, from one or two teachers that really got to know them, their strenghts and weaknesses. That is exactly what we need, a more individually focused education, otherwise, you’re just wasting time on tedious lectures that bore even the teachers sometimes, we gotta do things differently.

But there, there is the main issue, how do you change the system? Well, you can’t. “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Sadly, it is

Well hello! We meet again. So, after a rough past week (breaking up with my girlfriend of almost 2 years and 2 mid-partials)… I’m starting to feel a lil bit better so here we are, I’m way behind on assigments but luckily there’s no deadline. I will probably write about feelings in some future post, I don’t care, I can write whatever the fuck I want, right?

So, moving onto important matters, I looked up some codes from my friends to get some idea how to write de #WSQ03 Fun with numbers, and after seeing different methods, seems I took a bit of all worlds. Here’s my work:

The code, written in Atom:

The executable on Cygwin:

That’s it, I had to search St. Google for how to get the remainder, found out it’s the same as in C#, which I took last semester, using Visual Studio.

Now what? I still got a lot to do and read, and feelings-wise, as I heard somewhere I don’t really remember: “Going up shit creek without a paddle.”

This is goodbye for now. Just to leave you with another quote I like:
