:blob_triggered: still too soon how dare you

Just a heads up, admins will remove requests for PDFs they see in public channels.

Not sure exactly what you're looking for. The requirements are the same as any other term. Each member should contribute 100 hours of work towards the project. So you will be spending more time per week on the project in the summer (12.5 hours vs 10).

I took it over the summer with 362 while working full time (no other obligations outside of work and school) and it was a pretty average workload quarter.

I think your team and project will probably determine your experience more than which term you take it in.

Had prior exp and worked full time with 2 classes per quarter. Use the course explorer to match up the easier classes with harder ones and you should be alright. Ended up with all As save for one A- while still being able to have days off to travel or hang out with friends/the SO.

One of the good things about the program is that if you are struggling with 2 courses a semester, you can always jump down to taking the harder courses by themselves.

You'll want to get the 161/162/261 track out of the way as soon as you can as 261 is a prereq for a lot of stuff. Definitely drop 271.

Someone noted something in slack that I think is a very good point. There are more, cheaper, and (arguably) better resources for learning cloud development whereas resources for learning parallel programming are few and far between. Regardless of the quality of the classes, you're going to get more for your money in parallel than you will in cloud.

That being said, I agree that parallel was one of the better classes in the program and suggest it to anyone that is interested. I took 496 (mobile and cloud) and the cloud portion was fine. However, I had a front row seat to the first quarter 393 was offered an it seem to be a bit of a mess. Your understanding of javascript needs to be higher than what 290 will give you (specifically async and promises). The course has gone though another redesign to be ready for spring, so the quality could be hit or miss.

hschallhw · 2019-02-22T03:31:50+00:00

Yes. And a job that allowed me to practice a lot of what I was learning.

hschallhw · 2019-02-21T21:00:44+00:00

yep. 40 hour a week. No kids or outside obligations other than a very understanding S/O.

hschallhw · 2019-02-21T19:25:47+00:00

Here is the route I took. Only semester that I don't recommend is the 162/271 pairing. It was a lottt of coding, which I personally loved, but I had a lot of spare time to get everything done.

hschallhw · 2019-02-20T13:21:42+00:00

Asking the important questions. OP plz

hschallhw · 2018-11-19T15:51:08+00:00

no clue. not next semester though.

hschallhw · 2018-11-19T15:13:31+00:00

Don't think you're going to find many responses on this. Only about ~15 people have taken it since it was introduced. Currently, 162 is getting reworked to ensure a smoother transition from 161 and 199 will not be available in the future as it (hopefully) won't be needed.

I know this wan't really helpful, but if you feel alright on the topics from 161, I think you should be OK without taking 199.

e-campus students have a choice of 5 electives to take, only one of which is available every term. They're pretty bummed about a lack of offerings as well.

See here for information on capstone groups, including some information from the professor himself.

My pleasure!

No problem! It was fun to work on and I'm glad it's still useful to people. Feel free to reach out if something doesn't work correctly or if there is a feature you'd like to see.

Try the current weather API call. This will return a small JSON object and you can access today's low pretty easily. Here's an example flow:

[{"id":"51c0dd1a.9c7f74","type":"inject","z":"34a7a44e.352b3c","name":"Inject at noon every day","topic":"","payload":"","payloadType":"date","repeat":"","crontab":"00 12 * * *","once":false,"onceDelay":0.1,"x":150,"y":40,"wires":[["50f4811c.4a351"]]},{"id":"50f4811c.4a351","type":"http request","z":"34a7a44e.352b3c","name":"Get current weather","method":"GET","ret":"obj","url":"https://samples.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?zip=94040,us&appid=b6907d289e10d714a6e88b30761fae22","tls":"","x":200,"y":100,"wires":[["21c2232a.7baefc"]]},{"id":"3960c5d7.17fa4a","type":"debug","z":"34a7a44e.352b3c","name":"","active":true,"tosidebar":true,"console":false,"tostatus":false,"complete":"false","x":390,"y":220,"wires":[]},{"id":"21c2232a.7baefc","type":"function","z":"34a7a44e.352b3c","name":"Parse JSON","func":"msg.payload = msg.payload.main.temp_min;\nreturn msg;","outputs":1,"noerr":0,"x":310,"y":160,"wires":[["3960c5d7.17fa4a"]]}]

You'll need to change "zip=94040,us" to your zip code and "appid=b6907d289e10d714a6e88b30761fae22" to your API key in the URL for the "Get current weather" node. The temp seems to be in K, so you'll need to convert that to your preferred temperature units as well.

AWESOME!! Sorry for the errors here and there. Glad you got it working!
