Week 10 – The Test…


                Well it was test week and I can just say it was terrible. I completely blanked out when it came to the question that involved linked lists. The structure of linked lists in combination with the fact I had to recursively find an answer only made the question even more puzzling during test time. As mentioned before, I detest linked lists and when its use was required during the test, it made me panic half way through the test.


                It wasn't until after the test I look through the notes to see how one makes and uses linked list and after comparing what I remember written on the test, it made me depressed and very frustrated. I don’t quite remember the question specifically, however the major problem I had with the problem was recursively building the list of nodes and returning and maintain the built up list as it moves up the recursive iterations. It turns out I was over thinking the question and that all it was required was a return statement that automatically goes up if it is correct. That is what I call… a major failure. Hopefully, I can learn from this stupid mistake and move on with my life with the final exam.
