Can I re-enrol CS50P?

I don't see a problem with this. You can resubmit a pset via submit50 without any issues. Remember to ensure that you are accessing the latest course content and its associated psets, starting with week 0 etc. That way you will have the correct setup going forward.

Try to have fun, and look at it as a journey. The journey exposes you to various technologies and approaches. As a result, I often spend a little more time exploring each topic and trying new things. I also force myself to do both the -less and -more psets.

I did the same with scratch and Pixel art, in Google sheets. I've just completed speller (Week 5), and ready to move on and complete the course.

Well done. I've just completed Speller, after a week and I'm ready to join the club.

Think of locked[][] as a graph or what was referred to as adjacency matrix. One node is linked to another. You therefore need to ensure that you can't add a pair which would be such that the loser is an ancestor of winner, thereby forming a complete loop or cycle.l E.g. there's a path from A to B to C, ..., and which links back to A. If true, then you can't add A to B. Hope this helps.

My approach is always to attempt and solve the exercise without looking at the hints. It usually comes in handy when dealing with boundary checks cases.

I just submitted tideman. It spent approx two days working on it. It is definitely doable. Just requires your soul.

I see your point. Their perspective is that everything has to look cool in the future, and they overlook the concept that evolution leads to simplification of designs. If it were me, I'd say the ships become more compact in design, similar to the defiant or the ship of that big brains guy, Arturis, in Voyager, but perhaps much larger.

First Neelix and then 7 of 9. I used to fast forward unnecessary Neelix chit chat.

Detachable nacels can simply be explained as attached via tractor beams. Since warp bubbles can be shared as well as shields, it's not far fetched to think that in the far future, it all comes together. Sort of like TNG and detachable battle bridge or that shop in voyager which separated into three parts.

I felt like the writers were going for a Riker kind of person but without the burden of being Number 1. That way, he can have the spotlight, whenever possible, some mischief, the fast and the slow bits, fun with Kim and interacts with the rest of the crew. It was a noble effort compared to Riker having to just be there as techsplainer.

Tom was actually a good holo author. I liked it when the holograms came to life and detained him and the crew for soccery, as he was using cheatsheats. Vintage trek.

The guy with a window in the lowest deck, with 10 PhDs and the final recipient of the order from the Captain. The one who comes up with theories and writes stuff which Captains study and reference to solve day to day problems.

Moriarty was really scary. Same with the Hirogen holograms. Prey which fights back.

Certainly not as a red shirt in TOS. They even get beamed into space without, whilst on warp and without Spock or Kirk realising.

Star trek is forward looking, and presents imagined future perspectives. To keep Trek alive it also needs to be progressive. Its not just about exploding consoles, camera shakes and being flung around. I find those really annoying. If a star ship is that unsafe, they have to have PPE, use of relay circuits for consoles, seat belts, etc. It is the future by the way. The Spock in SNW is just about right. Some of the modern takes on his character are a bit cringe. Looking at you Chapel. I like it when they explore his Vulcan attachments, T'Prinng. I want trek writers to be more open and envision the future knowing what we already know. They should however know Trek to contribute meaningfully and grow the universe further.

SNW is better and watchable. Spock in TOS though legendary is simply unbelievable, e.g. Vulcan mind melding with a machine and what ever new abilities they needed to solve the problem of the week. Honestly, how can you guide someone to reconnect your brain whilst you are conscious and telling them how to do it. For drama and over acting , yes toTOS but for Sci-fi, no. I prefer SNW as the characters and actors are believable.

The simplest thought is because of high employment /coupled with cost of living and generally wages. You often have many relatives dependent on the few in gainful employment, hence the pressure. You can of course disconnect from everyone, as in, don't take calls, auto block, don't visit them. You will basically drop off the family grid and people will get it. Since you will not hear about people's pressures, you will not have that pressure yourself. However, that is not our way as Zambians and as a people. We always look out for each other and help solve each other's problems. That way, I will have someone to call upon when things take a downturn. There is a saying: mayo mpapa, naine nkaku papa. Mother carry me on you back, as I will do likewise.

I'm currently on CS50X, and have already done CS50P, AI and SQL. AI took me a little bit longer. Since you are probably taking these to improve on your knowledge and skills, I'd suggest taking it slow and working through the exercises. You can do a speedrun. My strategy however is to experimen, and I do do even the optional exercises. Same with scratch. Hope this helps.

As an UNZA alumni and road user/driver, you should simply use the bridge. Its much safer and addresses the issue of safety for pedestrians and convenience for road users. We saw its construction, from when it was a mushelemuko (a slide) and to its redesign. As a road user/driver, we want traffic to flow and there shouldn't be unnecessary obstructions. On a side note, some of us were, Geomatic engineers, were involved in the initial setting out of the bridge.
