    Hi everyone, welcome to my 13th blog! This is the Week 5 post for CST 338 Software Design.

    This week, we were tasked to work with two classmates to review each other's code for Markov.java. I chose to review two teammates from my group Silicon Surfers (CST 300 group).

  • HW01 (Markov) - Peer Review
    • With whom did you work?
      • I again worked with two teammates from my CST 300 group Silicon Surfers: Michael Sorensen and Wootark Kim.
    • What was your strategy for solving the assignments?
      • I did a bit of both. I threw code at it but only after thinking through the process.
    • What was their strategy for solving the assignments?
      • Their strategy was similar for most things, although some differences arose in our methods of implementing getSentence. For instance, Wootark and I both used !endsWithPunctuation to check when the while loop should stop, while Michael used a while true loop combined with a return to determine when to exit the loop. In my opinion, I think the way Michael implemented this is more dangerous as you are opening yourself up to infinite loop potential which could cause a stack overflow.
    • According to your classmate(s): how well does your code follow the Google Java Style Guide? Did you know you can automate applying some of the style guide rules?Links to an external site.
      • They said that my code closely follows the Google Style Guide.
      • Yes I did, in fact this is something I asked Dr. C about very early in the semester.

That is all for this week, see you in my Week 13 post!

Week 32 (8/13/2025 - 8/15/2025)

     (Click on READ MORE for better formatting)      Hi everyone, welcome to my 32nd  blog!  This is the Week 8 post for CST 334 Operating Systems. Write a 1-2 paragraph journal post, of at least 250 words, summarizing what your biggest takeaways from CST334 were, including any major challenges or topics you found particularly interesting. One of the major challenges in this class (at least for me) was wrapping my head around some of the long math-style problems that have been seen throughout the course. Thankfully, I was able to get a lot of practice with these through labs, ungraded practice quizzes, Midterm Preparation Quiz, and Final Exam Preparation Quiz. In addition, members of my team were able to help me better understand what was needed to tackle these problems. For example, Wootark Kim (Tom) made a step by step video for me and the rest of Silicon Surfers that explained how to do CPU scheduling problems featuring the RoundRobin policy. V...

Weeks 41 - 48 (10/26/2025 - 12/19/2025)

     (Click on READ MORE for better formatting)      Hi everyone, welcome to my 41st-48th  blogs!  This is the Week 1-8 post for CST 336 Internet Programming. Similarly to CST 311 Introduction to Computer Networks, while journal entries were not required  for this particular course, I wanted to document the concepts and assignments from each week of class. If you would like to see some of these projects for yourself, this link acts as a homepage to visiting all of the projects described below! https://bevans34.github.io Week 1: HTML and CSS This week's primary focus was on learning/practicing creating a website using H yper T ext M arkup L anguage (HTML) and C ascading S tyle S heets (CSS). Highlights from this week included centering a <div>, which is probably one of the biggest memes to ever come out of web development. Labs: 1 - ePortfolio Site In this lab, I created a site hosted on GitHub Pages that features a homepage, about page,...

Week 24 (6/18/2025 - 6/22/2025)

       (Click on READ MORE for better formatting)      Hi everyone, welcome to my 24th  blog!  This is the Week 8 post for CST 363 Introduction to Database Systems. Briefly summarize what you consider to be the three (3) most important things you learned in this course. How to query in MySQL and MongoDB, including select, insert, update, and delete. This also includes advanced querying techniques, such as subselect. Understanding schema structure of MySQL and MongoDB. After all, for the above to work you need a schema to create/use the database and establish table structures! Creating EER diagrams can also be bundled into this section as it is related to schema creation. How to take database systems and turn them into real-world solutions. For instance, using the JDBC API to create a webapp with a MySQL or MongoDB foundation. This was explored in group labs 19 and 21. That is all for this week, see you in my Week 25  post! Onwards to CST...
