Programming

The last couple of weeks we have been programming a bunch of different things. So far I've done a lot of things. I have made a keyboard, a display screen, and I even got it to play music. The ones that i liked the best had to be the liquid crystal group. In that one you use a little display screen. All of them are the same in the group but the code is just different. I was even able to make my own character on it. It was a little man that would move his arms up and down. That was all for this week so I'll see you next week.

Solder

Last week we started to solder random things together. It was pretty easy but I’m pretty sure we are going to get cancer from the fumes. I also figured out that it kind of hurts when the solder gets on you. The only thing we really made so far was just a simple little badge. It was pretty easy but now I’m working on a different project. I don’t know what it’s called but so far its easy, but it might get hard later when we get farther into the project. What I really want to do is to program something. That was the main reason I’m in this class. So I’m hoping we start doing that soon.
