We've been covering Post and Get methods in C# the past couple days. While I recognize the importance of this, I've been finding it unsatisfying as we haven't covered using databases for memory persistence yet. So anything we create remains hypothetical. It may be soon apparent why this must be, but I kind of wish we covered databases first so the result of our code was more tangible. All in good time though.
We've also been doing challenges on CoderBytes.com. I see how it could be useful to an extent, but I find it kind of frustrating to try and write code by committee. I think it's more beneficial to those in the class that haven't covered some basic coding concepts yet, but I just keep seeing incompatible code being implemented for the sake of illustration and I feel like the most I can contribute is pointing out why something suggested wont work. Maybe I would like it better if we tackled the challenges individually and then presented our different approaches afterwards. It's just a minor gripe though. I still learn a lot by watching others work through a problem.
