Time Keeping

Read the PHP lesson on error handling today. It took about 2 hours. If there are 3 Lessons per week and it always takes 2 hours, then that is at least an hour per day for this aspect (alone).

Read chapter in the Javascript book. About 2 hours to cover 30 pages. Material should all be familiar, so isn't there some way to speed this up? At this rate it would take 500/30, or about 16 hours to read the whole book. So for this aspect alone it would be about 16/6 = 3 hours per week for this aspect alone.

Still have not started JAVA, nor the networking stuff, nor physics.

And then there's micro. Read about 10 pages in about 90 minutes. Estimating based on the reading we've done so far, I should be spending about 7 hours per week reading the book.

So, hours per day: 1+.5+1 = 2.5 hours per day to stay caught up with this stuff. This should be doable, so where did the time go?

Lost track

The goal of this blog was to document how long it takes me to perform tasks. The reason for this was both to give me a basis for estimating the time required to perform future tasks, and also to encourage efficiency by making me conscious of how long I've been at a task. It also provides a benchmark for future reference.
Anyway, forgot to keep track, so will need to do so in the future!

Getting Started

During my second sesssion of today, I set up my 000webhost account then created and uploaded a very simple html page that meets the basic requirements of assignment 1.

Total time spent on this task was about 50 minutes.

No project plan or file description document yet, because there are no files or project, other than my "under construction" page.

NerdWing's Assignment 1

Tasks:
Read all the modules thru #5. Time spent was about 1 hour per module.
