I think the midterm last week went okay. I found the first proof easy, so I figured that one out quite quickly and confidently. The next two I found to be trickier. I didn't entirely complete the proof, but I did manage to get most of it I think. What I really like about proofs is that we can write the proof structure with as many steps as we can do and we are still able to get substantial part marks for it.

I'm a little confused about the things we've been doing in lecture recently. I understand everything that has been covered in tutorial so far, but I'm not sure about the material after that point. I have no idea how to prove a limit or anything with delta and epsilon or whatever. I'm going to start going to office hours for this because I really don't want to be cramming and trying to understand before the final exam. I'm glad the assignments and the midterms are done so I have time to focus on this and to get help.

In CSC148 we learned a bit about algorithm analysis. I thought it was interesting because that's basically what we did earlier in 165, and in tutorial two weeks ago our task was to find the number of steps it took to carry out a function. It's helpful being able to go over the same concepts in two different classes, because you can think of them in two different ways and get a better understanding of it. 

Thank you for letting me know about writing more than once a week. I will make sure to write at least twice to make up for whatever I can.

See you in a few days! :)

I did really well on my midterm! Hoorah. I found it to be really easy because after having studied so much, I understood all the material and everything made sense, rather than just trying to memorize the different formulas and structures for things. I didn't even have to use my cheat sheet :) Hehehe.

But alas, I must return to working on assignment #2. This one seems a little tricky because proofs somewhat frighten me, but the tutorials have helped a lot. I feel like I know what I'm doing so far so it shouldn't be too difficult to complete. 

I do have a question about the slogs though. Evidently, I haven't been keeping up with updating very well. I know we should be writing weekly and I will do that from now on. However, is it possible to make up for the past few weeks by writing more than once a week for the rest of the semester? Or would that not make a difference, and I should just stick to writing weekly? 

Thank you and good bye until next time!

(No picture of a turtle this time. Sorry. I've got this assignment that's more important.)
