Lecture (Oct. 18)

Today, we basically learned that you can make a bunch of references to the same object (say, a HashMap or an ArrayList) and if you change anything about the object through any reference, all of the others see it too. This is probably going to trip us up somewhere anyway, but at least it's in our notes so we can maybe find it at some point.

Other Stuff:

Pokedex!
I am making a Pokedex of sorts using a large TreeMap with string keys and long string data entries in Java. It's gonna be super awesome, but it'll take for-frakking-ever.

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal!
Heh. Boob joke.

Trial of the Clone!
So, Zach Weiner, of Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, made a super nerdy choose-your-own-adventure book called Trial of the Clone. I'm not entirely sure what the main story is, but I backed it on Kickstarter and I'm getting a signed paperback copy of the book, a signed postcard with art from the book, a flowchart poster of the whole book and an audiobook narrated by Wil Wheaton!
