Weekly summary for CSC 104

In this week, I have learned some knowledge about Von Neumann, storage and time sharing. In the lecture, I learned that what Von Neumann looks like, and some issues about Von Neumann, such as Von Neumann bottleneck and mortality of Moore's law. The most impressive part for me was that storage can be defined as hard drive, compact disc and flash drive.
The most interested and confused part in this week was how to change the color and dimensions of a picture. I am very confused about the fourth video named "decompose and reconstruct" in the tutorial hand out. The step of "bitmap" in this video was very challenging for me. Therefore, I am not very confident in this part of this week. However, after I asked this part from TA, I could understand the meaning of fourth video.
Although my course major is not about computer science, some information about storage and computer operating system could help me in my life. For example, when I purchased a new computer, the storage and computer operating system was very useful.
The one of my achievements this week was to finish the quiz of CSC104, because I thought this quiz was most difficult for me compared with the past quiz.
This week's tutorial was very helpful for me, because I solved some questions that were confused to me. Furthermore, the Wikipedia assignment spent me a lot of time, and I am very interested in my first blog.
