Coding the REST API

I spent the entire week on coding the REST API. I had always thought that coding REST API is a very difficult task but it turns out that it isn’t really that hard at all once you understand the whole thing. It’s all about dealing with the request and giving Read more

Halfway Point

This week marks the mid point of my internship. This week I managed to implement the basic structure of the C++ Driver with structs and functions prototypes being defined in a header file, the functionalities in C source code, and finally all put together via a wrapper class using a Read more

The Frightening Project Code

This week I have been learning a lot of random stuff. On my first day of the week, I tried to build the project and run it. I’m really impressed on how the whole thing is built up like login authentication and the interface with google drive. Though the whole Read more

Fixing more bugs

For this week I just continue fixing more bugs in the website which Dr Shawn has listed out to me during our last meeting. I moved the function of Scheduled to Status. When the users want to reschedule they need to hit the schedule which is under the Status. Then there Read more

Triggering Synthesis

I learned the way of testing a specific function in a program which is built with REST API. Basically every function is assigned to be accessed with either one of four commands (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE). By using CURL command, I can access and test the functionality of a particular Read more

Bug bites

This week, I am mainly working with JavaScript.  I added the simulator into the current project I am working on as a widget to test it out. As expected, I got a few errors and warnings in the console. However, the errors and warnings in Mozilla Firefox and Chrome were Read more
