Andrew and I finished (for now) the bank example and he gave me a new project to build an application based on the BART in San Francisco. I’ll be creating object classes for Stations, Turnstyles, and Cards to begin with. We set up a Git repository for our work and I’ll be building my first draft of the objects this week.
Some notes from today…
Topics of the Week:
