Blog 6

I interviewed my very good friend George Tasseff who is a senior this year. This guy has fixed my computer many many times!

What are you learning? The hardware and software sides of computers. How computer hardware works and how software interacts with it. How to create software. Software testing. Engineering quality software.


How do you think? I think my thought process is more analytical or logical which isn't always a good thing.

How do you view creativity? Creativity is a staple of human existence. Creativity is very important.

To what extent do they think programming is a essential skill? I do not think that programming is an essential skill. It is a very useful skill.

What classes have you taken? This semester - Software Engineering, Intermediate Computing, Database Systems, and Intro to Circuits.

Known programming languages? ADA, C++, and in the process learning java and ruby on rails.

What do you want to do when you graduate? Create the next facebook (user-wise), except have it be more useful.

What projects are you working on? In software engineering, our group is creating a program that will automatically login to an e-mail account receiving, parse through the messages, download attachments, and compile the data into a pretty redistributable e-mail.

How do you feel about collaborating on projects with others? More of an essential skill with programming. This brings the creativity aspect into the group as well (different viewpoints).
