How do I approach designing software?

What new design skills has your work on the project helped you to craft?

I approach designing software by researching methods that can be used and I implement the software through controlled test and checks to ensure that I am creating a good product. This also helps me with debugging incrementally. I learned a lot throughout the course but especially how to be very particular about values when things need to be exact.

What design process did you follow for your project work?

My process was to create the software and run it with incremental changes to ensure that the code was working and I manipulated it to get the results I wanted.

How could tactics from your design approach be applied in future work?

My tactics can be used in any project that I will encounter. By incrementally making changes instead of making lots of changes at the same time I can debug the code easily and dig into the how to do something.

How do I approach developing programs?

What new development strategies did you use while working on your 3D scene?

The lighting was something that really got me. Putting into perspective what all the variables are and what they do helped me throughout the project.

How did iteration factor into your development?

Heavily, guessing and checking was what I used throughout the project.

How has your approach to developing code evolved throughout the milestones, which led you to the project's completion?

Each module built on one another, so as I gained a better understanding the developement was much quicker through the rest of the modules.

How can computer science help me in reaching my goals?

How do computational graphics and visualizations give you new knowledge and skills that can be applied in your future educational pathway?

I think that understanding xyz domains is very important, but especially to me with outfacing products in the xy domains.

How do computational graphics and visualizations give you new knowledge and skills that can be applied in your future professional pathway?

I think that it makes me a more rounded student and allows me to put things in different perspectives to gain new skills.
