One of the most interesting things I have learned reading "Software Engineering at Google" is the idea of code reviews. When I first was thinking about programming I thought the actual coding would take up most of the time, but it appears that code reviews can consume an equal if not more amount of project time. I also learned that there are different types of code reviews and how there are many different aspects that the code reviewer is looking for before approving a piece of code. Reading about software engineering at Google it does sound like coding and reviewing code is very much a group effort with team members switching between the roles, similar to our current group projects.
This week primarily consisted of the Mid term which encompassed the first three weeks of learning. So far, this class has been challenging, but I am beginning to grasp some of the main concepts. I find that doing a daily review of the materials I have learned helps me to feel a little more confident that I understand. I feel that the main ideas have been computing the time complexity of the algorithm and getting familiar with some established algorithms for solving common problems. I will continue to study the new material and review previous materials to continue to improve.
