impressive. gg guys

7/12/2006 12:04:46 PM

nice

btw is there any point in doing CSC/EE/CPE?

7/12/2006 12:06:56 PM

i'd imagine if you are doing a double EE/CSC then you probably will almost automatically get the CPE - maybe 1 or 2 more classes

7/12/2006 12:10:04 PM

yea, but what if you're already EE/CPE?

7/12/2006 12:18:13 PM

wtf computer programmers can't play football

they're too small

7/12/2006 1:02:36 PM

I bet they can play a mean game of madden, though.

looking at things this makes me wonder why I'm even in CSC... this stuff is several levels way over my head...

[Edited on July 12, 2006 at 1:47 PM. Reason : gg to the winners though]

And the only winner from the U.S.A. IIRC.

Nah, they did all of this in a semester. You'll be ready for senior design once you hit it. You want something over your head, sign up the programming competition they do every year.

Haha Andre Brown was listed as CSC last year.

Good job guys, I had a chance to work with Eric back in 326

Take Graphics 1 and it will all be clear.

Damn Fornaro, you can't put on a suit for this ?


In all fairness the guy in the middle doesn't even have a tie.

Actually they have been working on the ray-tracer stuff off and on over the past 6 years. I know that Bill Culverhouse did a significant piece of work on the ray-tracer.

I think it has been in a state where no one has looked at it for the last 2 years or so and I'm sure whatever the team did was a new application built on top of the ray-tracer. Anyway, the point stands - they had at least 6 semester's worth of work to build on. Some of those semesters were spent on non-ray-tracer related educational games and websites though.

Not to detract from the team's success, just spreading the credit a bit. Good job guys.

I'm still pretty fucking impressed that this was an undergrad project.

I mean, I was pretty fucking pleased with myself when I got my "photoshop super-lite" program working that would let you draw lines and circles and save it as a postscript file.

I hate hate hate hate hate hate hate coding and after CSC 311, i never wrote a line of code again. That was my greatest accomplishment as a CSC major in my opinion.
