11th week

Since this week was dominated by Thanksgiving Break, and we just worked on Robo-code, there wasn't any advancement in our project. However, the weekend before, Matt, Allan, and I participated in the UIL competition and placed 2nd place in the programming section and 4th overall out of around 12 teams. Also, my robot that I might still work on, is designed more for kamakazi, rushing the opponents and giving them tackling damage.

10th week

This week we prepared for the LASA showcase and make our code ready enough to be shown to the possible LASA. We attempted to incorporate the new button from my code into Matt's code, however it didn't end up nicely; there were many errors and it didn't do the function the new button is supposed to do. Also, tommorow I have the written/group test so I'll try to do some practice.

9th week

Throughout the week, our group many breakthroughs which has made our project a lot more accomplished. First of all, I was finally able to get the open and save incorporated into our application. So whenever Control+o is pressed, the open dialouge comes up and same thing with Control+s, which makes it save. You can search through all of the files in the computer, however we are not actually able to save or open the text in our program. Another breakthrough made, was the scrollpane automatically scrolling. So whenever "enter" is pressed, the fullscreen application automatically scrolls down for you. This allows for the text to always remain near the center of the screen. The problem is that, lets say you wanted to put an enter between the first two lines; instead of giving a line of space, it scrolls down, so one thing we need to do next week, is tell the program to only scroll down when enter is pressed at the bottom of the screen.

8th week

Having eaten pizza and watching a video on Thursday, the only time we had to work was on Tuesday. I don't remember changing anything significant, but we had just edited the code just a bit, fixing errors, deleting redundant codes. In two weeks, the UIL starts, so I've got to do a bit of preparition as well as bring $10. Just as a side note, my birthday was over the weekend, so atleast I get good, little reward after this extremely hard week of tests/projects/debates, and half of my grades havn't even been put in yet. So on Monday or Tuesday, its pretty much going to be a surprise of the grades I made this second six weeks.
