First assignment is complete.

For the introductory assignment, I downloaded the Processing library and followed the tutorial to use it through Eclipse.












The script builds a small, flat-roofed house on a light blue background. It kind of looks like this.


The source for the file can be found on the UNCW TIMMY FTP at the following location:

First Post

This is the official first post of my CSC 370 CourseBlog! Please note that this is not your standard blog - it's a CourseBlog.

CourseBlog ('kôrs bläg) n. An electronic log of all work performed in a specified class.

This first post shall act primarily as an introduction, but it will also serve the following very important tasks:

1: Allow me to play with my font settings and overall look and feel for this CourseBlog

2: Allow me to waste a little time in the hour I have between CSC 370 and my next class (CSC 342).

3: Get that obnoxious "F1R57 P05T!!!!!1!!11!!!!1!!" mess out of the way without interfering with any actual work.

4. Establish the possibility of supplementing this CourseBlog with some vlogging from my YouTube account.

(Oh yeah, I may supplement my CourseBlog with a vlog on my YouTube account. I'll post the videos here)

5. Try to give the reader a sort of first glimpse* of my writing style and personality.

Now that the first post is out of the way, I can go ahead and start treating all following posts with the same rigor and protocol of just any old posts.

Man, I can't wait to call second postz!

*more accurately translates to "warning"
