Magical Recursion

These days, we almost finished studying recursion.
Recursion is a magical stuff. It begins from a simple figure and finally becomes a huge designed pic which composed with the original figures.

Let's talk about it.
Now I can do kind of questions or I can make up questions like that.
For example,

(define Qn (triangle 10 "solid""black"))

(define (Q n)
   (if (zero? n)
    Qn
(above
 (Q (sub1 n))
(beside
 (Q (sub1 n))
 (Q (sub1 n))))))

We can check expect that when n=0, it is a size 10, black solid triangle.
If n=1,2,3 and so on. We can see that this becomes a bigger and bigger triangle which composed the small black solid triangle.

This is so miraculous that I have ever know!!

Enjoying GOVision

On Mar 16th, I went to a formal dinner. It is organized by Global Oriental Vision. GOVision stands for Global Oriental Vision which is a non-profit student organization founded by Chinese overseas students. Their mission is to facilitate information-exchange and experience-sharing among these students, in the form of this website, conferences, and volunteering trips. Many of my friends joined in, and that party is mainly for medal presentation.

The party was held in Hyatt Regency Hotel, I wore my beautiful black long dress. After arriving, I met many friends who I don't know they would go to the dinner. They were gorgeous and so beautiful, my girls. We took photos and had a wonderful night. I really enjoyed the night. Because of the busy campus life, it had been a long time for me not to join a party.

After dinner, I thought I should join GOVision, as well. It is a good organization which I can experience more and enrich my university life. I will apply when next opportunity comes.

Miss High School

I am working on my slog and reading the suggestion on what to write in the page of instruction. And I found one called "One of your achievements". The first picture jumps into my mind is the time spending with my friends and family.

My grade 12 is here and another two years in China. As we all know, China has a big population, so the competition is very cruel, especially in education. My high school is a rigid school, the leaders think the only thing students should do is study. Cellphone in school? No way. Boy/girl friends? Absolutely No. And our school has accommodation. Most of us live in the residence. So we spent most time with our classmates and friends. China has an old saying"When appears a new policy, there must be a countermeasure". Whatever how teachers prohibit cellphone or dating, there still be someone do it. I think this is the normal phenomenon because this the nature instincts.

Because of these bans, the relationships between friends are very valuable. Because we need to  rival to our same enemies, the affection is built day by day. And I always believe the affection in high school is the most precious. Different from here, in Canada, no one push you to study, you need to know how to independent study which is very important. This is why I came to western country instead of staying in China...Or I will be crazy...

That wasn't a very happy time in my life because of many reasons, but the most memorable is my high school friends. I miss you guys! Did you hear me!!!

Test1 Performance

I want to talk a little about my CSC104 term test1. I am looking  over  my test paper right now. It was...

My score of first question is 1 out of 4.... Shame on me. I really don't know how to answer this kind of short answer questions. And I do review for the short answer questions. But just the day before test day.... Shame on me (My high school teacher's saying LoL, she's so cute) And I will do better in next test on short answer questions I believe myself!

I think the rest parts are not very difficult but I still lost some marks.... Like questions 2( It's true or false question, many "or""and""not" words like this and judge it if it is true or false), I thought I was right at beginning, but in the last minutes of test, I changed my idea, I felt all my answers are the opposite side... So I did it again, I was so nerves because the time was almost over. Because of my carelessness, I lost two marks!

And now I am reading the question, I found my mistakes were too stupid.... For example, the question is (or (and a b) (not c)), where a=true, b=false, c=true. So replace a b c in it.
a and b=true and false
not c=not true=false
So (true and false) or (false) is FALSE for sure......

In question 3, 4 and 5, I feel that's ok, some small mistakes can be forgiven.

To sum up, too many mistakes and not enough reviewing.
Spend more time on study and I am confident to myself :P

Sth about Wiki project

WikiII was due on Friday that week, since my WikiI grade was not very good to me, I need to put more effort on WikiII. I summarized what I did not enough in WikiI, I only did a rough frame and made a simple plan for what I was going to do. As the TA said:"Not enough awareness of how to learn about and follow the relevant Wikipedia conventions, and apply their knowledge and abilities." But I do spend a lot of time on selecting materials.

Wiki project was really challenging for me. I am not good at this kind of stuff. Because I haven't seen the instruction of how to edit the text, I totally did it in the wrong way at first (haven't copied all text in the window), so whatever how I edited it, the preview was always strange! The only way I can solve it is to send SOS to my friend. Finally, I got it...... Finally, I know how stupid I am.....

The thing is in my WikiI, I planed to edit two articles and listed many aspects where I need to do, and in WikiII I found that was wrong. I should put most efforts on one article and do better. So I gave up the second article (The second article I need to do is add an image of the Giant Gippsland earthworm) And I truly spent much time on the first article, because there were several aspects I wanted to edit. My first link is about Maltodextrin, I added two new aspects, edit the original text and did the web sited.

In the last minute I finished, I felt so proud of myself, because I solved difficult tasks which I was almost give up :)
