Midterms, take two

Next bout of midterms is upon us, and here are the major contenders:

EE363: Software Components and Generic Programming
We are given a large, incomplete software project base for a spell check utility. We need to bring it up to functionality and re-implement some key features using a different container than it uses now. We also need to add a little bit of functionality to it. Not too bad, but kind of annoying.

EE365: Advanced Digital Circuit Design
Here is the real kicker, we need to implement a relatively complicated design this time, and do it completely on our own. We're building a device that can read inputs from sensors, and using internal timers and logic, control a traffic light stop between two intersections and a crosswalk. It's going to be really interesting... and really hard. And I can't post any details of how I'm doing it without violating academic integrity, at least until the projects are turned in, gonna be a while...

Alright, see you all later!
