- Today everyone saw a demo of a program you will be able to write by the end of the week called 'Chain Reaction'. How do you feel about today's material with respect to getting closer to that goal? Elaborate!

- How has your understanding of what a web server does changed?
- In your own words and to the best of your ability, explain what Flask does.
1. It has not changed at all.
ReplyDelete2. Flask allows you to create a web server on your own computer, so that to test a web app of your own you do not need to use another server machine.
Learning how to make a game is very interesting.
ReplyDeleteit was pretty easy to get the hang of making the ball bounce, but now we will have to make the balls explode and die, which will be hard.
ReplyDeleteI understand better how a web server is used although some of the more specific mechanics still elude me. Flask allows one to run python or any other scripts on a local web sever, this would be most helpful for html language.
ReplyDelete1. I now understand what a web server does.
ReplyDelete2. Flask creates a local web server host for python. It is a module.
1. I now know that a web server sends information when the web browser requests it.
ReplyDelete2. Flask hosts a local web server that utilizes python as a backend.

1. I now know more about web servers and IP addresses
ReplyDelete2. Flask creates a local server that you can run html code.

ReplyDeleteI think I could get there soon, but I'm not close to reaching that goal right now.
(forgot to elaborate) I don't yet know how to create certain aspects of the game, but it's simple to find that out.
DeleteUm, pretty good. Everything makes sense so far, and I know what it is that I need to know how to do in order to complete the project. I think that if we spent all of tomorrow's time working only on this, I could finish it then. Though perhaps that just reveals that I am more ignorant than I believe myself to be.
ReplyDelete1. I understand a lot more than I did before, and was able to organize my ideas into a plan.
ReplyDeleteLearning about objects has made me feel better about completing the chain reaction game.

ReplyDelete1. My understanding of what a web server does has changed as I was always thought to change the HTML file to encorporate Python. Now I know that just by changing the python file and adding routes and using flask, I could create a python code that actually runs on a web browser.
2. Flask is a free "web server" that uses you local host ip in order to simulate what a real web server does.

ReplyDelete1) I now more clearly understand the relationships and interactions between servers, as well as how programming and markup language interact to form a website.
2) Flask removes the hassle of manually creating a server and making it run python files, giving you an easy way to incorporate the two.
I feel that if our class goes at the same pace tomorrow as it did today,we will finish before the deadline
ReplyDeletei feel comfortable i think that at the end of the week i will be able to understand all of the concept to make this game and also apply all of the concept to make a different game.
ReplyDeleteI think that it's going to be pretty annoying to debug this thing after getting to the end, even after all of this progress made, so I'm not exactly looking forward to having to do the tedious act of fixing very indistinct error messages. I actually feel empathy towards all those game devs, having to mindlessly sort through their 30,000 lines of code to isolate the problem and fix it.
ReplyDeleteI feel like what I did today would get me closer to meeting the goal because I had to make sure that I had the basics of what the game needed such as having a ball that can bounce off the edges with random color. Therefore today brought me a step closer to finishing the project.
ReplyDelete1:I have learned what a web server does.
ReplyDelete2:It runs a local web server from your computer.
1. It has not changed.
ReplyDelete2. Flask allows you to host a web server without actually having to host a web server.
1) It hasn't changed.
ReplyDelete2) Flask makes the computer into a web server.
By running my own
ReplyDeleteEven if just in local
I have learned much more.
Flask can simulate
a server run on your own
computer. It's cool.
Bravo
DeleteToday I learned that servers are just IP addresses.
ReplyDeleteI learned that flask allows you to annoy everyone with
I feel it will make my code a lot neater and organized, as well as giving me the ability to have a bit more variation and multiple randomized balls on screen at one time.
ReplyDelete-Nicholas Killmer
As of today, I have been able to make a bouncing ball. It is one step closer to the finished project. I can't wait to make it multiple balls, make the balls shrink, and disappear, so on and so forth.
ReplyDelete1. I don't think it has changed
ReplyDelete2. Flask helps to create a local web server in python
1) Not at all really. It was interesting to see all of the code first hand, but before this I knew how a web server worked.
ReplyDelete2) Makes it easier to use your computers local host server to host your python projects.
By the end of the day i was able to make the ball move around at different speeds, change colors randomly and bounce. That makes me one step closer to making the "chain reaction" program.
ReplyDeleteI felt today's material was really useful in making projects. It makes use of categorizing the necessary information in the program to write cleaner code. Obviously this isn't the last step in the project since there are going to be more lessons in the class, but I look forward to learning more over the next few days!
ReplyDeleteSince we were re-learning the basic ideas of getting things to move/bounce, it was fairly easy to understand. However, we never learned how to control all the variables of one object and be able to duplicate. But, now that we are learning about how to use objects, it will be easier to recreate the chain reaction game.
ReplyDeleteI think today's material was easy to understand since it was only the basics of creating the chain reaction game. Making the ball bounce and creating its properties was relatively simple since we had learned it last week.
ReplyDeleteI feel that this is a little bit confusing right now. But by the end of the week I should be able to understand it. The moving part was pretty easy but I think making the balls explode and die will be a lot harder.
ReplyDeleteI feel a bit confused and will review my notes before tomorrow so that i am better prepared. But also from what I understand, making objects will be very helpful.
ReplyDelete1. My understanding of a web server hasn't really changed, but now I get why many urls end with things such as .php
ReplyDelete2. Flask is a set of python modules that allow you to run your code on a localhost webserver, because without that, you would be renting some 20 dollar Windows 95 box in indonesia or something with a 200ms ping, preinstalled viruses and 50 mb of ram. So, its pretty nice to have something that doesn't require an "actual" web-server, but allows us to mimic this functionality to test code in a web server environment, this is probably great if your a web developer and you dont want to buy a site/domain/webserver just to test some coding.
Today's material was some what understandable. Doing the steps was helpful.
ReplyDeleteI feel good about it and writing out the steps is really helpful.
ReplyDelete1. My understanding of what a web server does has changed since now i know that there are several web servers and that certain web servers are owned such as Apple owning web servers that start with 17.
ReplyDelete2. Flask is a web application written in python that allows web servers to be made.

ReplyDeleteI can't wait to finish this REAL game! I'm really looking forward to learning new techniques in coding! Especially about learning this whole new world of objects!
I was able to recognize what I plan on working with for the "chain reaction" project
ReplyDeleteThe game is an interesting project that incorporates things we have learned last week and combine them together to create a game. Last week, we learned how to make 1 bouncing ball. Now we have to create multiple ones that do not share the same parameters to make them all different from each other. I was confused at first, but now I understood how random() can be applied. I felt less confuse which and how to use float and int as we begin to use more of both. This should be an interesting project. We don't have to watch a single object that follows our parameters anymore, but multiple with their own randomized parameters to make them more interesting to watch. And we also get to play the game.
ReplyDeleteI got switched to a new room today :/ It was abrupt but it doesn't matter since I get to experience a new environment and met some new people.
