Reflection 2

Disappointingly, I thought I could escape the several illnesses lingering in our area but alas, no dice. Please excuse my tardiness as I was not feeling well since Friday. However, I am pleased to report that my PCDuino I ordered came in and is fully functional. I hooked it up to an old TV monitor I have as a display. I'm surprised it actual works pretty well with the WiFi. Other parts that have arrived are the Cervos (motors) and the shields for the motor and LED control. Four books my father has ordered regarding programming are still on their way; meanwhile, I signed up to Codeacademy, which is teaching me the basics of the programming language. I've never really been interested in programming, but at least I'll have this skill under my belt for future use since I am attending a Vocational-Technical school. Maybe it is just me, but learning the language is a bit difficult and slow-paced. I switched my schedule around and am hoping to get the electronics out of the way first. Building the wolf is only going to be a lot of manual labor, something I am comfortable with.
