Extension - Functions and For Loops
Things I have learned in Coding so far
Our Extension class was using a app called Swift Playground. We learnt some things like A function and a For Loop.
A function is a piece of code that you can easily call over and over again. It includes the specific steps performed in the function.
We did some dance moves like the Macarena and repeated it.
A For loop is just a command telling the computer to repeatedly do something over and over again, or simply, a loop.

2018 Extension Trip
On the 19th of February the year 7 & 8 Extension crew went on a trip to Digital Nations 2030.
A Lady called Zoe came and showed us where our room was, she had a chat with us about OMGTech.
I was excited to go in, we all then met a man called Michael,
most people in our crew knew what OMGTech was except for me and some others.
So it was my first time seeing them all,
Michael took us through a programme called “Code Avengers” This was when we all went on
computers and started.
It was cool because we got to spin a wheel that shows a t-shirt chocolate and a sticker when we
were done, I got the one I didn’t want to get which was the sticker, but I was grateful.

I moved on to another project which was using Makey Makey,
There was some people who were teaching us how to use
Makey Makey. I was amazed at what things you could
do with Makey Makey, The next one I went on was learning
to code these robot car things. We had to code our robot to complete a easy course,
but it wasn’t as easy as it looked. It was actually pretty hard to code the robot
around the course, because we had to do one code then test it then do it again and again and
keep repeating.

Near the end we just cleaned up and packed everything away and got free fruit, I was happy that
we got free fruit because I was starving (Hungry) for food, I grabbed a really large apple that
made me full. As always in the very end we got on the bus and drove back to school.

Extension - SP Coding #1
Coding - Swift Playground
We learnt about Commands Sequences and more.
What I nearly learned was functions.
I kind of like coding, I wish I was better at it.
But I found this hard because it wouldn’t let me turn right.
So I had to turn left a lot of times.
