In which we do a desk check

Aw man, I thought I already wrote this. Who knew desk checking could take so long? I'm so tired...

Well, the title is self-explanatory, isn't it? Today, we focussed on desk checking. Mr. Arkin gave us a copy of a model answer for Selection Assignment 6, and we were supposed to individually trace the execution of it. Of course, if we needed help, we could always ask a classmate or Mr. Arkin himself.

For me, it was relatively easy - just time-consuming. I performed the desk check three times, once for each possible route. (In which the conversion was cm-to-in, in which the conversion was in-to-cm, and in which there was an error when inputting the conversion choice) The biggest problem I had was remembering that the computer types in pencil, and the user types in ink. There has been many a time when I wrote the user's part in pencil and had to erase it and rewrite it. *sigh*

Then, we got into groups of four and put together a list of features that the code (for Selection Assignment 6) had. Mr. Arkin provided us with a copy of the  programming guidelines, so my group used that as a template. I tend to write titles and headings in print (because it's easier to discern it from the actual content), so it was hard to get rid of that habit. However, I made sure the actual points were in cursive. Besides, I normally write in cursive...when it's not a title or heading. *sweat*

It seems like I'm writing my blog entries later and later now. I keep thinking, "what happened to the time?" .

I still have to finish doing some research for Science and further memorize my script for French (our presentation's tomorrow!). But before I do that, I'm going to check the Daily Log in case I forgot anything else.

On a completely different note, my friend introduced me to a website where you can chat like the characters in Durarara!! do. You can find it here. They even have the same icons! It's too bad Shizu-chan never enters the chatroom...I'd love to use his icon, since he's my favourite character and all. *smile* I guess I can pose as Kida-kun (Bakyura) or Izaya (Kanra). If I want to be loved by Shizu-chan, that is...and I do...I really do...

Sorry for the above paragraph. I guess it sort of wasted your time. *wince*
I'm sorry! *bows down*
I'll shut up now.

Until tomorrow!
Ja ne, minna-san!
