Reflection on what was learned Plans on what to do next

During this second lab in java we were asked to explore further into details the features of eclipse mars. We were asked to create another app that can convert from KM/h to Miles and vice versa.

In comparison with the first app we were asked to build, this Unit-Converter was a bit more advanced. It also differed in other ways such as that defining variables in strings, creating a new GUI and modifying the main pseudo code to suit the requirements of the application.

With my already existing background in programming, compiling a code that performs a mathematical operation wasn’t much of challenge. It was a simple task to accomplish the coding process.

The only hardships I was faced with was again the projection of my app onto an emulator, with the constant crashing and the never ending loading time, I was left with no option but to directly use my phone to test the application.

In consideration to how interesting coding with java seems to be, it is my plan to pursue exploring all aspects of the java language to be able to implement and compile advanced programs in the near future.
