SLOG7: Impression of Week 8

Hi All!!
Okay wait before we start talking about anything related to week 8, lets just take a deep breath and grasp the fact that its WEEK 9 already(well the end of it as its the last day)!!! Week 9 of 12 weeks wow we are nearly to the end and we are still having to face the consequences of the TA's strike. It is unfortunate but like I said last week, the TA's gotta do what they gotta do. I really hope they get what they want and they return to school as last week I felt like a lost fish in the pond.

Last week, we had to submit Assignment 2 which when I started working on wasn't too bad but it just got complicated out of nowhere to me. But thanks to my group members we managed to finish the assignment and submit it on time (hoping for as good of a result as Assignment 1). Though majority of the week was spent working on the assignment, there was yet Test 2 coming up which definitely required some undivided attention. I really wished the TAs for this course were back in class as my new TA seemed like a helpful one and him being around for the lab would've helped a lot for the test. Not all was lost though, because Prof Diane and Danny made sure we are not completely neglected before the test. The lectures were as usual clear as it can be for a 1-2 hours lecture and missing the lab kind of gave me that extra time to work on course material at home/library. This extra time to myself motivated me to find a way to solve the lab problems and lecture materials which in turn enhanced my learning of the material. After writing test 2, I feel it definitely helped me to answer the questions.

Week 8 lecture consisted of Linked List which can be seen as lists that are made up of item and a sub-list.it is basically a collection of  nodes. It is mutable. I feel I still need some more practice with Linked list to understand it completely. That is what I am working on for now and hoping that TAs will be back in action soon.

Thanks all for reading...
