Weekly Status Report #4

This week in our computer science class, we kept working on Visual Basics. This week we had a lesson on software documentation and decision making for the Visual Basics program. We received a new assignment sheet on If and else statements. For all of our programs created this week we had to document our programs so it is clear what I am doing in the program. The flowcharts quiz has been rescheduled for Thursday, when it will also include a programming section.

This week I completed all of the assignments and I also had my first program marked on Wednesday. I learned a lot of skills this week, like the if statements and also having the program recognize capitalized letters and minuscule letters. I also learned how to make message boxes so that I won't have to create a text box or a label to show the result.

My future goals in Visual Basics are to create a complex program that is created with no guidelines. This I know will happen in time, so for the near future, I want to gain more knowledge and be able to create the program with little or no problems. A few challenges that I faced this week involved finding different ways to create codes. I had to figure out how to convert the word to lower cases and how to use message boxes. Next week I like be starting with assignments that involve case statements.
