Last Semesters well good enough; I got only tens, which is also OK.
The focus on this 3. semester was Programming and Design of course, but including the network and distributed system touch. So exciting. I'm feel really attracted by concurrency and how this problems are addressed in distributed systems. Probably one of my best-liked approaches so far would be message passing and actor model, although I enjoy to write in Java (which implements a synchronous locking system based on Monitors). With this I'm admitting that Scala + Akka offer an interesting way to address concurrency challenges in the JVM.
Well, now vacations!!!
on my ToDo list for this summer I consider the following:
- finish the debugging course (which is excellent!) We use most of the time trying to fix errors. To me, be good at debugging is just a crucial craft that I want to be good at.
- the last implies that I need to improve my Python skills also...so I had consider to read a couple of books on the road, namely: Python para todos and the "python programming reference" that is available for Android devices on google Play
- continue solving Neo4j koans (lot of fun making pass unit tests with Neo4J cases!!)
- regarding Erlang I'm in the recursion chapter of http://learnyousomeerlang.com and the plan is continuing working in parallel solving the Erlang Etudes. This is high priority. I just love this language and is the functional language that I have been focus the most this year.
- I'm would like to take calculus on Khan Academy
- with respect to Java there are several things I'm really interested in, but I guess I don't have time to cover them all:
- JSP and JSF (we learned it at school before the end of the semester and is just really cool),
- JavaFX (I programmed a chat program that allows the user send messages and draw in a JavaFX canvas and share draws, but I have to fix few tiny issues....but is almost done)
Good Summer or Winter everyone
Namaste
