Week 10/15

  This week I had 3 classes on Monday. On Tuesday I completed a mini lab I had to do for my CSC205 class. On Wednesday I had my Trig midterm and got a 92 percent. Today is Thursday and I am working on some biology assignments I have to do. Overall school is going great.

Ping Pong in Python

Image
      For this weeks assignment I decided to learn how to make a game using Python. I have been looking up online how to get better at coding and other than doing coding challenges its useful to create real world projects to put everything together. I learned so much just from doing this project that I didn't know from just doing coding challenges. Now this is 147 lines of code so I wont explain every single detail but I did leave comments on all of my code so you can go through it and understand what each block of codes adds to the game.I will also upload a video at the end of this page so you can see the game working in real time.     The first thing I had to do is import a built in library in Python called Turtle. It allows you to draw different objects and animations on to your screen. Once I installed Turtle I created a variable holding the Turtle.Screen function that allows me to create a screen that pops up. Once I did that I changed different attributes of my screen such as

Sunset Views Coding Challenge

Image
    For this weeks challenge I did a problem called sunset views. The challenge is that you are given a list of integers and also a string that is either west or east. The integers in the array represent the height of buildings. Your challenge is to return to the user a new list of indexes that represent the buildings in the list that were given that can see the sunset. I also included a video of me explaining my solution since this problem is easier to understand if I can show you visually my solution. In this portion I will explain how my actual code works.      To start I initialize a couple variables. First is tallest that represents the tallest building in our list, the tallest index, a new building list which will hold the indexes that can see the the sunset and the second tallest that will be initialized to zero. We will have a first loop that will be used to first find the tallest building in our list. We will use this tallest building in either west or east direction. Once we

Week 9 Coding Challenges

Image
      For this weeks challenge I did a coding challenge called generate document. The way this works is you are given a function that takes in 2 strings. The first string is called characters and the second is document. Your goal is to see if you can generate a document with the given characters in your string. The only way you can generate a document is if you have the same amount of characters in your character string that will enable you to generate the document. For example if characters = "abcabc" and document = "aabbccc" you can't make the document because you are missing one 'c' in the characters string. If you are able to make the document you will return True to the user else False. This program will also account for spaces to be able to generate the document.      The first thing I thought up when I saw this challenge was to automatically use a for loop. Once I did though I realized I needed a way to keep track how many instances of each charac
