Current mood:

tired

So, finally got round to looking at Flex a little as prep for starting my expert systems assignment, and... It's scary. Not in the same way that Prolog is scary, in a really creepy way that you look at the code you've done and you realise that what you've written looks more like a comment of the sort you see in tutorial examples explaining what a line of code is doing than actual code. To the point that it actually makes you write out greater than in words (...You know, that one you'd have thought that I'd be greatful for what with the mild dyslexia...)

Easier to read than most languages, sure, but... Horrendous to find why it's not compiling for the exact same reason that proof reading one's own prose writing is hard. Looking for missing bits of code, and misspelt variables, easy. Looking for 'Oh I've used in instead of is in that sentence' is hellish.

Otherwise - 70% on the Java assignment. Would have been higher, but 40% of the assignment was report writing. (Actual marks - 48/60 on the design/code section, 22/40 on the report)

Incidently, if anyone's on Twitter (Interesting little social networking concept based around the question 'what are you doing now'), I'm Gizensha on it.
