Welcome to the blog of Can Sar, a Stanford CS major. This blog is made up of my thoughts on Computer Science and the computer industry, as well as ever exciting tales from my life.
Both the CS 242 Problemset and E40 Prelab are due tomorrow, but I think that will work out quite nicely. We are slightly stuck on CS 143 right now, but we are going to office hours and got some good news today. We were planning to finish the project by Friday evening and then start doing extra credit. This put us into the uncomfortable situation of having to compromise the code generator itself in order to do optimization. Fortunately the assignment deadlines were changed so that the main project is now due on Tuesday the 25th and the optional extra credit part is due the Tuesday after that (December 2nd).
We are now going to finish the assignment by some time Saturday evening, and start writing optimization code while simultaneously stress testing the standard implementation. After tomorrow I will only have to do CS 143 and CS 147 for the week, and CS 147 will be due on Friday, after which I will be able to mostly concentrate on CS 143. After tomorrow's Office hours we should be set on what to do CS 143 and should be able to code, rather than just spend time on trying to figure out what to do.
I feel absolutely driven right now, and feel like this is going to work out in some crazy way.
