Weekly Status Report #7

This week the work I accomplished still involves loops, in particular exit for, which allows the user of a program to end that program early if the enter a particular string, which will exit a loop and then continue with the rest of the program after the loop has ended. We wrote 2 programs which used exit for, one simply for calculating the average of 10 marks, which could be ended early by typing "-1" and one program which randomized a number and gave you 8 tries to guess it, and it would exit for if you guessed it correctly, otherwise you continue until you guess expired. We also did a report on different possible jobs that one could get if they pursued this type of work for their future.

The work I have remaining is still the unfinished loops programs from 2 weeks ago, because this week the student hard drives couldn't load saved programs from Visual Basic, thus I was unable to access and finish them. My goals for next week thus still include finishing those 2 programs and doing some work on my new loop programs to try and ad extra features to it to expand my knowledge of exit for statements.

I didn't encounter many problems this week, in fact the only real problem I encountered shouldn't have been a problem in the first place. When we started working on our second exit for program I didn't know how to generate random numbers. So I used the help feature and Google to try and figure out how to do so, when in fact the code for it was written on the problem sheet. So I was told that this was the case and my problem was solved.
