CS1302: 2026-01-29
MOSTLY WORKING ON PROJECTS

Usual Preparation

  1. Open Qunicy (with code if you have some)
  2. Open rustpad.io/#CS1302
  3. And I'll attempt to get the Google Meet started before you call me! Just an ordinary call, though I'll try to get a camera set up on my laptop, too.

Continued Array Examples: array-demo.cpp

One-on-One Work for Your Projects

  1. Cael's Music visualizer: uses a sound playing library, arrays, open-ended music visualizers, and perhaps Fourier transformations for a more advanced verseion.
  2. Luke's Lunar lander: uses colors, a bmp background, discrete Newtonian physics, keyboard and mouse input
  3. Carter's Newtonian starship: uses colors, more animation, discrete Newtonian physics

Introduction to Indexing in the ITTDB:

  1. Choose something to index from this list of stories discussed in Worlds Enough and Time by Gary Westfahl; or from this other list of stories discussed in Time Machines by Paul Nahin. NOTE: Before choosing a story, click on the More Details list and ensure that it doesn't yet have a Librarian listed at the bottom. (It should have me listed as the Curator. When you've selected a story, let me know and I'll help you find it in an online library. Also send me your individual choice of your librarian name, login name, and password for the ITTDB.
  2. If you'd like, watch with your family: Somewhere in Time by Richard Matheson, directed by Jeannot Szwarc (available on Amazon Prime Video with ads). Side discussion: What kind of time travel movies do you like?
  3. Choosing your librarian names, login names, and passwords. Side discussion: What are the biggest threats to password security?
  4. El Anacronópete by Enrique Gaspar (1887)
  5. Its ITTDB page
  6. Its development page
  7. Its editing page (still under development)
  8. The ITTDB Tags (needs a lot of work!)
