Cow Goes "Weekly Status Report 4" Moo

Week 4 of Cow Goes Moo, the main objective of the week was to finish the question 2 which was marked on wednesday. Along with that assignment sheet, we've learned the IF statement and were briefly introduced to CASE statement. The If statement is used if the program need to do different things in response to different conditions. You can use either If, Elseif, or Else to varify the different situation the program can encounter during the process of running. Some task that goes along with are creating a program that determines if a number is positive, negative or zero, and creating a program that determines if the plural of sheep the user enters is a correct anwer. Also Case statement can be used to program for many different conditions you might encounter during the process. Many conditions mean that writing codes for all of the possible choices.
I have completed all the programs that uses the IF statement. However I have not completed the ones that uses the Case statement. Future goal at the moment is to complete all the given assignment and have complete understand because there are a lot to understand than just understanding how to use it. One of the biggest thing for the week was the quiz but it got cancelled due to too little people in class because the the snow storm.
There was a lot, of challenges and difficulties during the course of the programming because Visual Basics, still, remains a very complicated software for me. Help from many different classmates were needed to solve the problems like different situations that are used during developing different programs.
