Hello and welcome to my blog. Refer to me as the debug ducker. The purpose of this blog is to detail my computer science journey and maybe some other stuff if possible. As of now, I am a going into senior year and ready to graduating so I’ll be documenting tons of stuff.
Now my name. It sounds silly right, but the name is based on a code debugging technique that is an coding industry practice.
The basics are that you’ll need a rubber duck or anything inanimate, and when you run into a code problem you need to debug try explaining what the code does to your duck, tell it what programs you’re running within the code, and the purpose of the code. The idea is that when you explain and go over the code with the duck, it’s supposed to help you catch what’s wrong as you explain it.
I used to do this back in high school and found it helpful. I remember my other peers doing the same thing, and they found it helpful as well. Though I haven’t used it as I progress my programming career, the technique stuck with me. Mostly because it sounds silly talking to a rubber duck but don’t knock it till you try it. So whenever you encounter a coding problem, talk to a rubber duck or any inanimate object about it and see if you can catch any errors.
I’m excited to kick off this blog as part of my journey through Computer Science. Throughout the semester, I’ll be posting regularly as part of assignments from my professor. These posts will cover a variety of topics, from programming projects and tech insights to reflections on my learning process.
Whether you’re also in the field or just curious about tech, feel free to follow along! I look forward to sharing my experiences and growing through these discussions.
His this is my blog called Computer Science From a Basketball Fan. Im excited to Publish on this new blog and learn from other bloggers. This blog will be primarily used for CS-343 and CS-348 as of right now. Hope for the best!
“Hello World” to everyone taking CS courses. My name is Gia Vuong, I go with my preferred name as Kiet. I major in Computer Science, and the next upcoming time I’ll be declare a minor as Mathematics.
I hope we can learn something fun and new together in this class, as one of the essential aspects leading towards the career success.
