Class Ending

What I learned in this class:
I learned many things in this class, and I do not regret taking the credit even though it was not in my curriculum. For the first semester, I learned about the amazing history of processing, about how it was designed to teach non-computing majors about computing. The concept was very easy to grasp, and compared to Java, which the language is built upon and also compatible, it’s a nice as well as very simple platform to work with. For the most part, I learned how to manipulate images and other artwork using code. This gave me a great sense of control, and a sense of how the Obama campaign used processing in its voting application, its virtual platform 2.0. I think I will be ready to apply what I learned in this course to future projects. As for arduino, it’s really a simple CPU that gives the convenience of programming just through a USB hub without anything additional. In addition to software design, it also introduced circuitry, which was a nice benefit.

My favorite homework for this class:
My favorite homework for this class was undoubtedly the last one, were we integrated arduino and processing together. Regrettably, I did not have enough time to complete it, but if I have time in the future, I see myself buying an arduino and working on some projects of my own.

Comments:
My only comment is that I am sad we did not get to keep the Arduino boards.
