I must say this weeks session went well. I have been working on a consistent schedule for quite some time now and this weeks homework helped me narrow down objectives. Although you make think writing things down will not help, you will be surprised how much insight you gain.
The homework helped me get more specific with my goals. Whereas before I was randomly working on problems, I am now focusing on specific objectives. This week I have been working on Java Collections. I learned how:
"given a number M - find N! > M where N is a factorial of M"
The problem was driving me crazy. I made it work for one test case but could not make it work for all test cases. On the positive side, I was only missing one item to make it work for all test cases.
Also, Java is not only teaching me about actual programming but it is also teaching something about myself. I need work on attention to detail and I am very persistent. I will not stop working until I solve the problem.
I am using Notion to organize my programming schedule trying to keep a narrow focus. It is work in progress.

Awesome progress, Ron!
