At this point in our development journey, we are nearing the end of our main development phase. We’ve hit several challenges so far, but have overcome most of them. The biggest problem we’ve had so far has been performance. While testing and numerical adjustment should be relatively simple, the fact that our program must perform…

Do you smell that? This week, we’re talking about Code Smells! During the development of our Capstone project this week, I’ve found myself being a little bit more self-conscious about my workspace hygiene. For the last several years now, the vast majority of my programming projects have been a solo mission. So, now that I’m…

Well everyone, we finally made it to the end of the term! This marks the completion of the first third of the CS Capstone. I feel like I’ve been going 90 miles an hour since September, and I’m looking forward to getting a chance to slow down for a couple of weeks before we hit…

It’s been a few weeks since our intro, which means it’s time for the next post in the Botanical Bytes blog. This week I would like to talk a bit about how the project is coming along, our ups and downs, and – of course – how this all ties in with biology. At this…

This post will be a bit of an introduction, before we dive in to some more important (and perhaps more interesting) topics next week. I’m writing this blog as part of an assignment for the Capstone course in the Computer Science program…
