a team in last year’s robotics class forgot to comment out a line of joke code so during the final their robot completed the assigned task in autonomous mode, stopped directly in front of the professor, printed “HEADED HOME, MOTHERFUCKERS” to its LCD, and drove back to base
me, the motherfucker with over 50 abandoned works in progress: i have another idea

envision yourself exactly where you want to be. what motivates you? picture that, and never let it go. keep it in your mind and heart as you construct a plan to achieve what you want. with discipline and some confidence, you will reach your goal. you will.

When learning a new language don’t waste your time copying down syntax, it will come naturally after practice. But, if you really need syntax help badly then I can reassure you that most high end languages are heavily documented.
I say this so that you don’t waste all your time taking notes on basic syntax, instead use your study time to copy down any relevant code examples in the textbook, tinker with them and analyze them, comment on them. Practice, practice, practice.
The only time you should take notes is for flowcharting or pseudocode. And of course, notes on concepts.
Margaret Hamilton (b. 1936) is a computer scientist and engineer who, as Director of the Software Engineering Division of the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory, played an important part in the Apollo space programme. Her division was responsible for developing the onboard flight software for the missions that put the first men on the Moon, and she was the supervisor and lead programmer of the project.
She graduated with a degree in abstract mathematics, during a time when computer science and software engineering were not yet disciplines in their own right. She worked for the SAGE Project, used by the military in aircraft defense. Since 1986 she has been the CEO of Hamilton Technologies, an organization which she founded.
