When you have learned Dijkstra, A*, BFS etc. but still can't find a way to her heart.

I JUST GOT MY FIRST LAPTOP TODAY OMFGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG THANKYOU SO SO SO SO MUCH BHAGWAAAN JIIIII🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

so the 60 days of productivity challenge did not work out and that's fine we can always start over. but I've realized the way I've been studying is fragmented and all over the place so I've decided that I must do the following things:

1. Learn java

2. Then finish the kotlin course

3. Then make an app

4. then study more c++

5. then do a project in c++

and this seems very ambitious but I'm not planning to be an expert in these languages anytime soon, just know enough to make stuff and grow my knowledge through practice. ideally I'd like to do all of these things by mid to late October. And I'll do projects throughout the year so I don't forget and can improve :)

I'm starting java today, I'll post a lot here to keep myself accountable and I hope I can do it. I'm excited to learn new languages and build things!

day 8/30 of productivity

a little more calculus and a lot of assembly language 🙄

day 5+6/30 of productivity

a good few days of studying- mainly database and calculus. mid exams start after next week and Im not feeling as anxious anymore because I'm catching up on things :)

calc I revision cos im taking calc II this semester plus my setup in siyuan

notes from when I was studying for finals plus code from a group assignment where we made a bank management system with c++. it was fine and we got a good grade in it but we had to abandon our original plan because we didn't have enough time and ended up making a simpler version. I'm going to try to make it on my own this week.

also i keep forgetting about this blog, will try to post more in second sem. hope you're all well :)

day 7 of 30 days of code

(didn't do anything yesterday cos I was really sick of studying)

today I did the last of the functions exercises. i used my white board and talked aloud about each function as I wrote it and it helped a lot.

day 4 of 30 days of code

my programming II exam is next friday and it's all about functions. today i finished revising every topic in the chapter and filled in any gaps in my knowledge. i feel much more confident about it now :)

kinda forgot about this blog but here's some pictures from the last few weeks. it's midterms season and i've been focusing on studying for exams instead of on programming practice, which i don't like. i'm thinking of doing sth like 30 days of code so i don't fall behind on my c++ studying, even if it's just a tiny bit done each day.

hope you're all doing well!

data structures and algorithms notes. I actually enjoyed studying it :)
