Mainly .NET (C#, ASP.NET) and my projects

Working with Windows 8

Windows 8 is an amazing operating system. It is similar to Windows 7, although it requires a new kind of approach. Below, I have included some of the pictures taken from the metro UI menu.

Writing the outline for the Extended Essay

Yesterday, I was writing my Extended Essay outline. My topic is related to number theory (mathematics), although my approach to my question is a bit different. Through the entire research process, I have not considered any other research papers, and in the beginning I wanted to do the research with a pen, a paper, and a computer. I can say that the computation power has helped me a lot in this research, and I my mind people should appreciate computation proofs as they appreciate traditional mathematical proofs. Computer is like a tool that will hopefully simplify a lot of other tasks in the nearest feature!

Received my new ultrabook!

Today, I received my new ultrabook after ordering it from Dustin. It is made by Lenovo and seems to solve two tasks simultaneously: first, it functions like a pc and secondly, it might be used as a portable tablet. Before, I was thinking about getting a Mac, but I soon realized that I can get a much more powerful device for the same price. My version of the pc has built in 8GB of RAM and an Intel i7 processor. I got amazed by the fact that the package was very big compared to the laptop itself, so included some pictures below.

I still ask my self, why did I get it on test week, however, I’m still studying, as I have two tests remaining.

 

Individual oral presentation is over!

With the words like “Congratulation!” and “excellent language and structure” I left the examination room, and thought that now it is simply over. To my disappointment, I have realized that I have a test in Mathematics HL and History HL, which did not scary me that much, but when I gave this another minute of thought, I came to the conclusion that I have to finish my CAS folder, Physics lab rapport, Swedish Written Assignment form (which means I will need to compose it in less than two weeks), English Written Task, and to review the EE outline, although I think I am done with it.

C’est la vie, I will continue with my preparation for the exams tomorrow!

Preparation for the Individual oral commentary

Individual oral commentary is one of the important tasks, which influences 15 percent of the final grade. This means, having a good mark on all internal assessments will influence the final grade in a positive way. Therefore, I am spending a lot of time on it, by reading the potential poems and extracts. In my case, as I am a standard level student,  I might get either an extract from Death of a Salesman or one of the poems by Emily Dickinson. Here are some pictures of the setting around my desk.

Welcome!

This is my recently created blog, where I am going to publish articles about my studies, active projects I am involved in, research, and also things I do outside my studies.

If you are interested in articles about Mathematics and Computer science, please go to my second blog: http://blog.clizware.net/

C# Fundamentals – Data structures (variables, arrays, types) [4]

Soon done with Serial Key Manager

For approx. 1 month ago, I got an idea to develop an application that will solve a problem in Software Protector, namely storage of serial keys. Some users might find it a bit unpractical not being able to save the generated keys, which might be a disadvantage for somewhat bigger projects.

Hopefully, this project will be complete in the nearest time. Please check back soon! 🙂
