I enjoyed the thought processes that were happening in my mind,
altough it HURT. I think I did a little too much with recalling some
of the functions we defined in our transform.py file for the
scatterplot.py file. I appreciated the step-by-step breakdown on the
website to guide me though what would be included in each chunk of
the code. Still, I ran into the issue of how to actually make those
steps happen. I think it had more to do with my understanding of the
individual functins like clamp and ratio because I went back and forth
many times trying to figure out how to actually execute them. I
preffered the kind of thinking we did for Checkpoint #2. It made a lot
more sense to me although I still struggled with what things actually
meant.
Checkpoint 2: It went okay. There were points where I couldn't figure out
what was going wrong so I had to look up the commands to make sure I was
using them as intended. Personally, coding is a lot of trial and error
for me in the learning process. I have to see what the code understands
and what it doesn't so I can rewrite it in a way that can be understood.
With practice I get used to its "lingo" for example the idententation
patterns, repetition, redefinition etc.
Checkpoint 1: Although I am familiar with utilizing the scatterplots,
I am sure some parts of the coding that makes the scatterplot will be
confusing. I am not very strong in creating loops in a logical way so
probably that will be where I might get stuck, if there are any.
