When I first in touch of Javascript, I already had learn about programming language such as Java, C, and C++. However, even though I already had experience with Java, Javascript is a completely different story than Java even they both have the name “Java”. The biggest difference is that when I was working on JSFiddle which is using Javascript, I notice that rather than just typing code like Java does, there are HTML and CSS panel where we can write code on it as well! This is something that I didn’t encounter in my Java or any other programming class.
After I had done the excerise from the homework assignment and the practice WOD in the class. I feel like Javascript is a good programming language from a software engineering because when we try to make software program, we not only want the program to work, we also want the software look as nice as possible. If the software is completely work but looking ugly, no one will like this software. If we using other programming language, there will be a lots of extra work since Java code, HTML code, and CSS code usually will be in the different file. However, Javascript can done all of those just by one.
When I was working on the practice WOD, I feel like this is something that I should work hard on in order to be succeed on this class and the future. If I can master Javascript, I can make a lots of interesting thing with it and can easily find a software engineer job in the future.
On the first practice WOD, I feel like Javascript is much enjoyable than other programming language which especially in my opionion, the C language. Programming on Javascript is less stressful and this will give me motivation to work better on the future WOD and homework, and I hope I can make good really good software project by the end of the sememster.
