Mentoring session request #3

Closed srinivt closed 13 years ago

srinivt commented 13 years ago

Hi, I'm Srini. I have enrolled in the RMU Core Skills course (May 2011).

I would like to work with a mentor and get feedback on my attempt at the first problem in Puzzlenode (International Trade). I spent quite some time on it, but have not been able to figure out why I don't get the right output. The code is in: https://gist.github.com/01e80391715bea47d352 . I would also like to discuss the 2nd problem on Puzzlenode (I'm still working on it).

My preferred times for meeting are: Apr 17 Sunday 3-6PM CDT, Apr 19 Tuesday 4-7PM, Apr 20 Wed 5-7PM, Apr 22 Friday any time of the day, Apr 23 Friday any time of the day.

Hi Srini. I can meet with you next Tuesday Apr 19 from 5-6pm CDT (6-7pm EDT, where I am). How does that sound?

That sounds great. Thank you Eric! See you on Tuesday.

OK. We can meet on the #rmu-study-hall-1 IRC channel on freenode (no password).

Hi Srini, just confirming you can still meet later today?

srinivt commented 13 years ago

Hi Eric, yes I can make the meeting today. Thanks for the confirmation!

Hi Srini, good to talk with you today. You can view the logs from our session here. Feel free to sign up for another mentoring session!

Also, on puzzlenode problem 1 you asked if rounding should be done once, or for each rate conversion, and I said I thought just once. To clarify, the answer is that you round once per transaction (after all conversions are applied), not once to the sum of the converted transactions. Hope this clears things up.

PS. If you'd like, you can fill out a survey about the mentoring session here
