Well, this is the fourth week of uni and unlike previous years, I’m actually attending (most) lectures and all tutorials! On top of that, I’m actually doing all the tute work of which there is a ridiculous amount. On top of that, I’m managing to write little applications once or twice a week. So, it’s all actually going rather well. Only real problem is I need to do more maths work because there are a few confusing concepts.

One thing I wrote in the past week is an app that generates a list of prime numbers up until the x-th prime number. I’m particularly proud of this because it took less than an hour and I did 60% of it on the bus. Alas, here be the code. From what I can tell, it’s 100% accurate up to the 500th prime number. Just don’t enter 50000 because it takes a little while! If anyone has ways of improving it, I would love to hear it.

One other cool thing is that I’ve been using OneNote. A couple of years ago, I though it was a very useless program but since Uni started, I have found it rather invaluable. Combining it with Dropbox makes it more valuable.

So basicically, Uni is going well! Hazzar! If I find some time, I might post some non-programming, non-uni related stuff.
