Week 4

Hey people!

How's it going? yes, yes, u really should respond to that question using a comment, you c the botton, it's down the end of this blog, just click right there when u finish and say whateva u want; how u r feeling, what u think of the blog, what u think of me, all comments r good so get commenting my amazing readers.

ok so on to good old week 4 stuff. tutorial this week was fairly helpful, other than forcing me to listen to the assignment .mp3 file so that i could ask questions of our subsitute for dirk. The asking of questions was pretty helpful, but i think that some of my questions weren't really answered because there was no answer for them, while annoying it was also refeshing that i didn't have to think in so much detail.

personally i love modelling, it's so fun to build up an idea in your head which seems so pure and true, unfortunetly the real world isn't ever like a model, but that's fine. I have a real problem w/ the model of the water supply system on the slides because it has like no reservoirs, but i guess they wanted more abstraction than i did, maybe it makes no difference if there are reservoirs logically, but i haven't really got my head around thinking completely logically yet so who knows.

I think determining what is inside and what is outside the system is sometimes hard to determine, like i couldn't decide if muso is a part of my.monash unless i knew they were run by different people and that they bought the WebCT system from vendor (i think so @ least).

ERDs and UMLish stuff is familiar from database and programming, i don't know why u call it a class diagram when it makes sense to call it that in OO programming but they call it UML, bizare. Is there a difference between UML and class diagrams? i'm bit vague on that. I like the Object Management Group or OMG as they may prefer. i really wanna b a member of that group then i could say "omg, OMG is cool"

Well that's enough blabbling and statire from me.

see you guys soon
