Lecture: History of Computing (20 minutes)
In-class exercise: Do What? (30 minutes)
- Write a program that would produce a formal composition. The program should be written as a set of simple instructions, which could be executed by a classmate, friend, or family member, without any additional guidance by you. Execute the program yourself and document the result. Ask three different people to execute it as well and document their result. Compare the results and make notes regarding how they are similar or different. Make a small change to your initial program and rewrite it. This time, be specific about your goals and note down how you would like the results to differ. Repeat the first steps using the new program and document the results.

Email Dan your Github username if you haven't already
Submit your basic program to canvas
Read What is Code? and document a discussion question
Create a github.io page using this guide - your url/repository name should be username.github.io
- Create (on github) a simple index.html file for now, we will expand on this in the project archive
Begin Project Archive
- Begin to think about navigation structure through sketch (consider both mobile/desktop)
