Challenging Assignments

The latest assignment, the one involving the completing the sneeze.rtk file was probably the most enjoyable assignment i have done in this course to date. Whereas the weekly quiz's and even the test relied much more on being able to comprehend programing code that is shown to us, the sneeze assignment required original work. I had fun trying to figure out what commands i needed in order to produce the desired result for each section of the program, it felt like i was piecing together a jigsaw puzzle. I would almost prefer doing this kind of work for the course on a weekly basis. While not as complex as being tasked with going out and creating a whole program completely from scratch, the fill in the blank format requires, i feel, just the right combination of comprehension of the programing units and individual initiative that allows one to feel as though they really accomplished something in the course. Not only can i memorize what a command does, but i can use it in a program and make something happen.
