CS373 Spring 2021: Pranay Kalagara

1. What did you do this past week?

This past week I finished phase II with my team and made sure that we fulfilled all the requirments. I also did my best to look ahead to phase III and see what was in store for the next part of the project.

2. What’s in your way?

I have a very busy week coming up with phase III as well as catching up on work for other classes so I’m hoping I can do that and still manage to keep my grades up for the remainder of the semester.

3. What will you do next week?

Next week, I’ll be trying to work on phase III as well as catch up on lecture recordings since I’ll be missing two classes due to other stuff I have this week.

4. If you read it, what did you think of the Dependency Inversion Principle?

I thought it was a very good read and something that’s really good to incorporate into porgramming design. However, I find that I sometimes struggle in implementing this kind of thing in my own code. So I’m hoping that in the future I can do a better job of it.

5. What was your experience of +, *, ** and decorators? (this question will vary, week to week)

I didn’t know what a lot of these did until lecture and I was suprised to see how useful python Is when it comes to argument passing. I found it to be very informative and useful for the future.

6. What made you happy this week?

I’m getting my second covid vaccine this week so I’m looking forward to being fully vaccinated!

7. What’s your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?

I started up doing some leetCode recently and I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to interview prep. It has thousands of problems and is very useful in organizing what you are doing.
