Pong
For the final project, I had decided to implement the game of pong. Whoever gets a score of 10 first wins!

Final Exam – AlchemyLab – feltonj
If you read my pre-programming write-up, you would know that I’m attempting to solve the problem of wasting ingredients that don’t match each other in Skyrim. Problem solved.

TextGetter
For Homework 3, I had decided to take the first few texts from TFLN and show them on my application. To get the texts, I parsed the HTML that I had pulled from the homepage of the website. Because the website updates on its own, each time you open the application, you will get the […]
