Final Assignment?
-----------------------------------
I just scanned last years final assignment. It was so elementary that I thought I would keep it for laughs. So I thought I would share.

If you still have yours post it! We can compare. :P

I wonder if you can make some non-"abstract art" and then argue that it is a subjective word :P

This is freaking retarded. This has very little to do with computer science. If I was the teacher I would completely ditch turing in favor of Pascal or Ruby. Why the hell does he/she want a graphics component? I would put an emphasis on runtime and efficiency, and analyzing/implementing algorithms. For the culminating I would leave it open ended.

:lol: Me and Mackie didn't follow the rubric really, we just made some stuff up and incorporated many untaught things into the class, such as procedures, arrays, classes, pictures that aren't drawn with Turing Basics.

I would love for it to be harder. But that's our school for you.

We seem to be lucky in the complexity of our course, this was my first year final project.  It was done in C++.  It works quite well although I was not happy with the final design.  I should have gone with an event driven GUI or at the minimum had more separation between the logic and display.  Overall it was a pretty messy and quick job.

It is called Bubble Tea Tycoon and is essentially a text based lemonade tycoon clone.  It is pretty impressive all considered, it has a tab and menu based interface (All in text) can create sales charts, has upgrades, weather, recipes, inventory...

I would copy and paste some "screen shots" but the spacing of text on the forum messes it up.

Thats pretty awesome r691175002. By the way, use the code tag if you don't want the spacing to be messed up. It stops all wrapping.

It's a computer SCIENCE class. Anyway I probably would go into SDL, but I would put a strong emphasis on efficiency and code clarity. Then again, I probably won't become a teacher as I hate kids (actually I hate other peoples kids who are mostly annoying and undisciplined).

As a class we actually only did graphics for the last 2 weeks or so. Maybe less.

Since I already knew that stuff I spent my time helping others... >.<

My final assigment this year: http://flash.lakeheadu.ca/~mwbenson/4431/outline08.doc

Basicly make a 3D racer in a team. I will post what we made in a few days.

So, far I like all of your assignments better than mine. Especially Dans!

P.S. It was annoying to read the bare scan, so I played with some levels, and made the scan as readable as possible.

My final this year was too simple to be worth mentioning.

One of my labs involved writing a small clone of Adventure however.

My Final project took all semester to finish and in the end it can create sine waves, probe logic circuits, be programmed to display things in binary on 4 LEDs, and probably some other stuff i forget. 
We had to etch the circuit board, solder all the components onto it, drill/cut out all the holes in the metal chasis, and finally assemble and test it. 
Also one of our labs involved building and measuring certain points in an audio amplifier. 
My programming assignment was a joke, i received 99% in that class.

Wasn't it two periods, one being a half period, that we were supposibly taught graphics?

I had some algorithm assignments this semester in my algorithms course. I also had an assignment involving pipes for IPC and in the second one, a full Client server communication and data retrieval for my O/S course.

I would willingly post them but don't want to get into any legal troubles.
