Today in ICS was the day that our printer assignments were due. I 'm not quite sure how I did, but I'm going to find out tomorrow. We also had to hand in our eighth repetition assignment. I think mine worked pretty well, it guarded against everything except for different data types.
Anyways, I found out the most amazing thing today! I was looking up how to center text on Turing, when I found a forum discussing fonts. When I copied down the code, it was really quite cool! I'm pretty sure that Turing uses every single font that Microsoft Word 2007 has, but I've only tried two so far. From now on I'm going to use a different font for the header of my assignments instead of just putting a different background around some spaced-out uppercase text!
Today I was thinking about all the interesting things I've found in Turing, and I've decided that I'm going to create a new discussion on Wikispaces about cool things to do in Turing. It isn't just all homework! One of the coolest things I've found was in the Introduction to Programming in Turing on Touque. It was a program where a ball of colour would appear wherever you clicked! I tried fiddling around with it, but all I could do was change the size of the ball. Another interesting thing I found was a way to use "play" in the background of a program. Normally if you used "play" and then used the keyword "put", it would wait for the play to finish before inputting the data. Using a keyword "fork", it can change everything! I have a few more, but I'm going to save them for the discussion on Wikispaces.
Anyways, bye for now! Don't forget to check the newest discussion form on November 23!
