You have q> given us very little time to do this project and no weekend time to q> do it. Plus I thought MATLAB was over. What ever happened to JAVA? q> Just don't start cramming JAVA down our throats because ya'll took q> too much time on MATLAB. q> q> I don't have a clue what you were talking about in lecture today. q> I am a good student and understand this stuff too. Today's lecture q> just seemed off the wall. ---- q> I studied COndorcet voting extensively in my government classes and q> i think it would be better to fully explain why it's possible for 3 q> different groups to be equal when one can beat the other. (i.e. order q> in which elections held manner. ---- q> The hints given in class were all very abstract. They do not tell us q> how to work with Matlab specifically. It would have been better if q> we were given more concrete examples of 2-D arrays using programming. ---- q> You seemed to be showing us stuff but sometimes it was still a little q> clear. Overall it was an alright lecture. If you have examples ready q> ahead of time, it might go smoother during lecture when you try to q> explain them. ---- q> Examples always help understand better things, if more examples q> the better! ---- q> A lot of time was spent on how Condorcet voting works. Since we were q> already supposed to have read this, it would have been more helpful to q> just tell us the differences between the website and how we represent q> things and then move on to actual code. ---- q> decent job this lecture, but are we starting JAVA? This'll be less q> than 7 weeks of JAVA, I think since the semester ends in 5-6 weeks. ---- q> Too much time spent on learning Condorcet voting, most didn't apply to q> actual programming skills, but only to being able to do the project. q> It's good that the project is an application to real life, I like q> that, but it seems a waste to make the project an application if q> we have to spend several class periods figuring out how to do the q> application; this time could be better spent. ---- q> I still don't quite understand what you want us to do for P5.3, write q> a code that that simply tells you if a given point is inside, outside, q> or on the boundary of a given polygon or actually fill the polygon with q> a given character and if so with what? I felt this could have been q> better explained, particularly on the P5 write-up. But I'm REALLY q> glad that we're going over material in lecture that is helpful on q> the projects, I would be lost if those hints were not given. Thanks. ---- q> I felt this lecture was not too relevant to the course. ---- q> I'm still a little confused on the data representation, exactly how q> to input data into table. ---- q> i felt like you were going too fast today. you kept asking if anyone q> had any questions but i (and i know many others that i talked to) q> just couldn't even think of questions to ask. i felt very lost. it q> didn't seem very helpful. ---- q> Everything seemed realy convoluted and I had a hard time seeing how q> it all related to computer programming. ---- q> I found the explanation from this lecture very confusing - it seemed q> very abstract. While I followed along, I feel I only understand it q> very superficially. ---- q> interesting, i like examples ---- q> The explanation of the arrows and defeats was alright(could have q> been clearer), but I am still confused about why you need to convert q> characters to numbers. I'm just not making the connection. ---- q> I am not getting much out of the lectures, unfortunately... Also, q> will we start java soon? Was this supposed to happen a week before q> spring break? ---- q> This seems to me to be an inordinately complicated problem q> (i.e. Condorcet voting), for us to spend an entire lecture talking q> about it instead of coding. I'm still not quite sure how to do the q> project, though the hints will probably come in handy. ---- q> too difficult... ---- q> I thought the arrows representation of defeats became kind of confusing q> but overall the lecture was helpful. Hints for the projects are nice q> but, they can also be kind of annoying. Too many hints just takes q> away from the challenge of it. ---- q> I really didn't find the hints for P5.3 very helpful when my partner q> and i sat down to do the project. it was very discouraging. ---- q> I'm still very confused about writing the equations of the lines and q> finding the points on the interior. ----
