Staying HIP After 4 Weeks

10/19/15 11:59 P.M.

We learned a lot about Databases this week. The coolest part was SQL, simply put it's code in which allows us to communicate with data bases and pull information from it. The 4 main interactions with a database is;  Create, Read, Update, and Delete A.K.A C.R.U.D.
And some simple SQL Code:
UPDATE table_name
SET column1=value1,column2=value2,...
WHERE some_column=some_value;

3rd Week of Getting Hip

1. One big thing we learned this week was sorting methods in Java. We learned insertion, bubble, and selection. I have decided to use bubble for my homework assignment this week. Below is how to start the code for a bubble selection sorting method.
public static void bubbleSort (int[] data)
{
    for (int i = data.length - 1; i >= 0; i--)
    {
        // bubble up
        for (int j = 0; j <= i - 1; j++)
        {
            if (data[j] > data[j + 1])
                swap(data, j, j + 1);
        }
    }
}


2. I'm not really using my skills in school yet but I will definitely utilize
them next trimester in my computer science class.

2nd Week of Getting Hip

1. I learned about inheritance within classes. A class that gets  properties from other classes is called a sub-class while the class that gives other classes properties is called a super class. There can only be one super class but many sub-classes.

3. My number 2 which is Strategic comes really handy in how to do my homework before actually writing any code and it pairs nicely with my number 4 which is Arranger so when I start my homework I know exactly what to do in order.
