CS373 Spring 2021 Week 9: Siddhesh Krishnan
What did you do this past week?
This past week I met up with my group and continued to work on Phase II of the IDB project. We were able to get out PostgreSQL database setup along with having our API endpoints setup with SQLAlchemy and Flask as well.
What’s in your way?
Right now, there is not much in my way! We are extremely close to completing Phase II of the IDB project and will hopefully be done by Monday (thanks to the deadline extension which we received). All we have left to do is the Unit Tests and some of the documentation for the Technical Report.
What will you do next week?
Next week, I will continue to work continue working with my group on Phase III of the IDB project and hopefully make good progress on it. I will also continue to work on enriching my understanding of tools such as React and AWS.
If you read it, what did you think of the Interface Segregation Principle? (this question will vary, week to week)
While I have already read the Interface Segregation Principle since I took Object Oriented Programming last semester, it was definitely worthwhile to do this reading once again. This reading really does an outstanding job in explaining the concept of Interfaces and how multiple interfaces can interact with each other.
What was your experience of comprehensions, yield, closures, and decorators? (this question will vary, week to week)
Comprehension was something which I have already learned in the past through my experience in Python so I have experience with that, Yield and Closures are fairly new to me so those will be concepts which I will have to go over with the notes posted online. Decorators are something which I have used in the past so I have experience with those as well.
What made you happy this week?
This week I was able to talk to my friends and go out for a walk as the weather has improved. This made me extremely happy this week.
What’s your pick-of-the-week or tip-of-the-week?
My tip-of-the-week this week would be Selenium! Selenium is a tool which allows you to obtain information from any website either from the HTML tags or directly from the structure of the HTML document. Please check it out!
