This past week we finally got to the next project, which is called "Darwin". It was released on Wednesday, which, compared to usual, gives us a little less time to work on it so it is definitely an added challenge. It is going to be especially challenging for me because this coming week I am going to be interviewing with two companies, one in Chicago and the other one in San Francisco and that is going to take approximately three days out of my week. Thankfully my partner and I already came up with a schedule of what days we will be working on the project (most of the times we will work on it together, but this will require a couple of times where we work separately and do the catch up when we meet again) and started working on Darwin early and we already got a head start. We started implementing the classes but we do have some doubts regarding the avoiding the getters and setters. It seems like that is the heart of this project, the coming up with a design that is good enough so that it doesn't need to rely on getters and setters, which, apparently, are always a sign of bad design. We will see how the project develops throughout the rest of the week.
Material-wise we finished off talking about the (priority) queue and stack data structures and started discussing class variables, and the similarities and differences between Java and C++ of these two.
