My dream has always been to design a software that would be used to reduce the prevalence of Antibiotics Resistance, hence reducing the mortality rate. But with this comes great perseverance, determination and endurance.
One of the topics for last week in my software engineering journey were flowcharts and pseudocode; what they are and how to apply them. We were given resources to go through and projects to work on with deadlines.
Flowchart is just a Diagramatic tool used to represent and simplify your programmes in shapes and in a flow order.
Pseudocode is also a tool for programming used to simplify in plain English before it is implemented in a specific programming language.
And then I realized these are everyday tools everyone uses across all areas of their life. We apply these in how we budget and save, how we carry out our to-do list for each day, how we cook or order for food. Everything we do is done step by step to achieve a goal.
We set goals everyday and we achieve the ones that we fully apply these tools to logically.
Now back to the project given last week. I couldn't do it!. It took me days to complete it, I had to ask for help from colleagues and then I realized I was missing just one step which made me not get the result.
So, lessons learnt, first, always ask for help when you are stuck, you learn to learn
Second, life is a process, follow it through and don't miss or jump a step because the result is always better.
Thanks.
