Week 3

This week we learned a lot, but especially about networking and hardware. We just listened to a presentation by the CEO of Jones IT who taught us a lot about how WiFi works. He used the analogy of wireless connections and the lanes of a highway and I actually understood it because the concepts were simplified. He showed us how to analyze the parts of a WiFi connection and the different aspects of WiFi like how you can "change lanes" if one lane gets too congested. On Monday, we also took apart a computer for the first time. It as a lot more different than taking apart a PC because the parts were a lot more condensed. It amazes me how much a laptop can do but yet it's so small. Coding class has been pretty interesting so far. We learned how to use dialog boxes and let the person input answers into it which is really cool. We also starting using booleans which I think is really useful for possibly making games in the future. We also made a LinkedIn which was really helpful and I think that will be very beneficial later when I'm finding a job.
