Hello!

Despite that U29 is still ongoing for other surrounding peers, I have completed this a while ago and only came in to sit through the recap pitch talk John gave later, this is in regards to future units ahead.

The traffic was horrible therefore I arrived later but of course, I have no work outstanding. I spent some time looking at NUA's accommodation and I read about their FLINT magazine they sent to be via post. This is all about the latest issues in regards to NUA. One part in particular that interested me was the student life about accommodation. 

For an hour or two, John went over binary, decimals, hexadecimal, ASCII and more. Using whiteboards, we were converting code around and learning the process of how and why. This is extremely useful for future units where we will be building robots! However, my memory will not be as good, although John did send this link which is a good read through.

For the remaining part of the day, I got ahead with Maths and started to write about the results and trends I discovered about the primary and secondary data. 

Edit: 

I will be having the student fees and finance talk by Catherine on Thursday lunch instead of a Friday as on Friday, the majority of the class would not be coming in due to the completion of the current unit and are awaiting for the next.

Over the independent study time, I will get my Maths U26_A4T2 advanced to a good position and further research about other competitions I would like to enter.
