In the morning, we worked together in a conference room and each focused on coding specific sections.
A few things I've learned from today's group experience:
- Merging/combining code can be challenging
- The challenge can be minimized if the group agrees on handle and variable names and uses them consistently
- Overwriting code happens
- To prevent overwriting, code should be manipulated in a place other than the main document
During lunch, Abril and I attempted to visit a new area of campus, but the section was closed off for construction work. We re-routed and found a smoothie cafe.
While coding in the afternoon, we met a young 12 year old boy who is passionate about coding. The boy's father is a fallen Navy Seal and Google brought the boy to visit the Googleplex to meet coders, engineers, and us. We shared our project idea with him, showed him some of our code, and demoed how our app looks so far. It was special to be able to share our project plan!
Our team works very well together and accomplished our goals for today. Successful coding today? Samuel says, "Yesssss." We are trying to anticipate tomorrow's challenges and are working out a few details tonight so that tomorrow will go smoothly.
