Horray

I got a B in my design of programming languages class :)
I calculated my average and it was approximately 83.9
I was worried I would have a B-
but I pulled it up by the end of the semester

In Hebrew I got an A.

My other grades have not been posted yet.

home

im so happy that its over!!!
the semester is over and I am home :)

Googies

I decided not to do the interview, at least not now. If I want to do it later in life I will apply again, but not now. I will apply for some other jobs and internships this summer during my break.

Exams are going alright, i just had bob's test this morning on:

Functional Programming:

1. Type Checking: You should be able to typecheck SMLLite expressions "by hand" by building proof trees from the type rules. Also, you should be able to produce alternate type rules for certain constructs.
2. Operational Semantics: The same applies to the operational semantics of SMLLite as applies to the type system.

Basic Prolog:

1. Functions, relations, and partial functions
2. General relational programming
3. Facts
4. Atomic queries
5. Compound queries
6. Clauses
7. Variables and quantifiers
8. Variable substitution
9. Term unification
10. Occurs check
11. Top-down semantics (SLD resolution)
12. Bottom-up semantics
13. Pure Prolog programming

Advanced Prolog Programming Topics:

1. Nonlocal control and cut (!)
2. Extra-logical predicates
3. Metalogical predicates

It was intense, way too long and everyone was running out of time and freaking out. There will be a curve, but who knows.. at least I got to all of the questions, some people didn't even get to every question

I put 'something' whether its a kakashka or not, for every question

anyway i have a hebrew test later today and a robotics project to present later also
and tomorrow i have a big test too in my Jewishness class that ill be studying for tonight
and then after tomorrow i'm almost done
except the robot project write up
phew.
so much to do.

cant wait till its over.

Weekend

The weekend went well, I got to relax a little and enjoy some burnt but none the less tasty latkas. The lobster was fantastic as well.

I made a ton of flashcards, over 100, for Hebrew to memorize the vocabulary.

Noah also helped me with my paper a lot, so I just need to add some finishing touches tomorrow and then its due tuesday.

I still have to study for all my exams but it will soon be over.

Paper

So I'm working on my third and final paper for Jewishness class.
The class is so dull and boring, I'm glad that it is almost over.

I'm glad that I finish the semester in a week.

Happy Channukah

Enjoy some winnie pooh:

Oh yeah, and happy Channukah.
I'm going to noah's house for channukah dinner (latkas and lobster)
I'm working on a paper right now.

Presentation went great

My presentation on CHR this morning went really great. I also baked a cake for the class. YUM!

I spent about a solid hour today crying. Russian songs are so sad.
Such titles as :
Goluboy Vagon
Birthday Song
Bremenski Muzikanti classics
other cheburashka classics
winnie pooh

Paper cut out

Snowstorm!!!

So today I was supposed to present 2 things, and guess what!
WE HAVE A SNOWSTORM!

So there is like 10 inches of snow outside.

and noah called me really early, at 8:05, to wish me good luck. He told me there was a blizzard and that driving was terrible, so I thought immediately, oh boy! my teachers might be canceling some of my classes!

So I went online and sure enough, I got an email from Bob canceling class!
I still have my other classes today (no other emails with cancellations) but I was still pretty excited.

"Hi,

This morning's meetings will be canceled due to inclement weather. We will try to squeeze the talks scheduled for today into Friday/Monday. Otherwise, we have the laboratory period on Friday, December 18th. "

Winding down

Okay, less than 2 weeks left. Horray!

I can't wait to get home.

I just about finished my Constraint Handling Rules and Kismet presentations for Wednesday.
I also handed in Bobs lab but I couldn't have done it without Rajeev's help.
What else what else.. robotics project is due late next week.
Studying Hebrew vocab for the final exam.
I have a final exam in Jewishness, as well as in Design of Programming Languages.

Its going to be a busy 11 days.

2 things done!

I've been working for the past few hours..well all night really, and I got my Kismet presentation done!

You can check it out here:

Now all I have left is bob's prolog lab, and my 30 minute presentation for his class.
(well, left for next week)

Finals week is another story.

Finished 1 Lab!

I just finished one of my labs! HORRAY!
It isn't very good, and it is way too long, I think I was only supposed to have 3ish pages, but I have 5 due to the fact that I didn't know what the hell to include and what not to. But oh well, I did the best analysis I could given that I've never taken linear algebra or statistics.
Complicated!!
I'm sure I did fine.

Now I just have..well...everything else to do. Tomorrow I'm going to finish Bob's lab. Also, from now until next Tuesday, I will be working on my 2 presentations.

Then after they are over on Wednesday night, I'll be writing my Jewishness paper, studying Jewish people, and studying Hebrew for those finals.

Its all winding down, the semester is almost over, and that means--> winter break soon!
I can't wait.
