SOFT6008 Class 36
We took a look at the tile game. It's an interesting example of how to fit pieces of code together to do something fairly complex.
SOFT6008 Dropboxes
These are the dropbox folders that have been shared with me so far. If you do not have a folder listed here you need to take action or you might not get your work in on time.
SOFT6007 Dropboxes

These are the dropboxes that have been shared with me so far. If you do not have one here you need to take some action, or you might not be in a position to submit your work on time.
COMP6023 Class 36
We took a look a video compression using HandBrake

SOFT6007 Validation
In order to have your pages validate at validator.w3.org you will need to start your html documents with this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" lang="en" xml:lang="en">
SOT6008 CDATA
To validate your webpage you may need to use CDATA to get the JavaScript through the process.

COMP6023 Class 35
We continued our look at video compression.
In tomorrow's class we will look at the effects of different coding parameters. Students who want to join in the fun should install the software available for free at handbrake.fr.
At the end of class we had a brief (off-mic) discussion on plagiarism. I feel like I have had enough of those conversations already. But to summarise: if you copy and paste off the web, that's your problem right there. It's not about how much you change things around after that!

COMP6023 Class 33 & 34
Students worked on various things. Many worked on stuff unrelated to this module. That's fine.
I met with each student (except one who left early) to discuss the progress for Assignment 3

Assignment reviews
Students will be expected to meet with me and talk me through the work they have submitted. The extent to which students can explain their code will form part of the assessment process. The audio of the meetings will be recorded, but will remain private, and will be deleted once it is now longer needed.
Students received an e-mail with an invitation to chose a time that suits them. Please select a time slot. I propose to meet up to three students per time slot. I can't give each student an exact time, but I generally allow 20 minutes per student and this has worked well in the past.

SOFT6008 Assignment 2 Spec update
The phone number part of the spec was vague so I tightened it up. Check the spec ->
again.
0211234567
(089)1234567
(089) 123 4567
087-123-4567
Are all valid phone numbers. You may assume that the customer has an 021 / 083 / 085 / 086 / 087 / 089 number.
The replace method will come in handy for stripping out the unwanted parts
Accounting for
+353871234567 is not required.
But it would make a nice extra

We went through a solution to the question in Assessment 1. I did a slightly different solution from the one on the blog
