Exams Finished!
November 6th, 2006 by aizatto
My Monash exams are over! So from now till February, I am somewhat free. Though a majority of that time will be spent with my parents overseas. But for now, I have other things to do.
The upcoming week brings the eGenting Competition that I have previously mentioned before. I’ve solved some of the problems already, but not all. Expect them to be posted sometime within the week, perhaps after the competition so that others can’t cheat off of me. 
But that would be pointless, they already have the solution. The biggest hurdle would be the different domain. I generally deal with scripting, and webdesign so I’ve had to learn up threading and network design. Which is all cool.
Similarly I’m at a disadvantage, its an “open book” competition, where you don’t exactly program. You program, and prays it works. No debuggers, except for that noggin of yours. As I’ve really relied on books, in fact I have no programming books which I can use, I’m sort of at a disadvantage. Sure I can pick up books from the library…but my plans are to use Ruby! Not many books on that language in the library. I could possibly be go buy one…but for a cash strapped student, not exactly the best of ideas.
But after this is over, I get more hacking time!
