Lab 9

In this lab, I have learned how to understand linear regression. Also, I am not more comfortable with excel and the auto sum. I have never used data analysis tools in excel and it showed me how much excel can actually do.

Overall, I believe this lab was a little difficult at first but now I feel a lot more comfortable with excel.

Lab 8

I thought that this lab was really easy and enjoyed doing it.

Lab 7

Task 2


From the truth table, I concluded that if the inputs are similer, the output is one. And if the inputs are different, the output is zero.



Task 3

Lab 5

This is really interesting. Unix has many different commands, it even knows who you are if you typed in "whoami". You can also change your shell type you wold type "chsh". Another important command is to clear the screen. To do that, you obviously type "clear". To exit the unix, you type in "exit".

Modeling the World

This lecture has a lot to do with abstract art and symbols. There are many different ways that the world is modeled, but it always needs to have an experiment, experience, reflect, and formalize. With those, you will find the fundamentals of knowledge.

Overall, there are two lectures about Modeling the World. Modeling the world is very complex and has a lot of information attached to it.

The Nature Of Information

My opinion of these lecture notes are fairly well. There is a lot of infomation and much to learn. On the other hand, since there is so much information to learn, its hard to remember all of it.

Infoport is where you can find some of the examples used in the lecture.

Well well well, The Library of Bable, written by Jorge Luis Borges, was very confusing to read. I found the article under infoport if you were interested in reading it yourself. I got lost many times and read it over and over. Still after attempting to read the article many times, I still do not fully understand it.

I guess from any part of the hexagons, you would be able to see the upper and lower floors. Weird? I think so. Even the books are uniform to each other. It also seems as if only men have entered the "library". The article has so much information it's hard to follow. Overall, this "library" is very odd. If someone could help me understand this and actually tell me what it is exactly about, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
