print ("Coding.")

For this unit of Coding, we looked at python coding in trinket.io. We learned about input, print, random, and math function. We practiced coding using Codeskultpture and trinket.io. For this AP, we were asked to develop a python code calculator. I decided to focus on creating a calculator that allows users to easily calculate compounding interest. The second part of this AP was to create a form letter that we could use. I created a form letter for students to submit feedback and questions to the GCE student council. Check out my codes and see how they turned out.  Student Council Letter Form Compounding Interest Calculator Overall this AP was very helpful. I was able to code a calculator to help with my economics class which was really nice. I did have to do some research in order to get the calculation that would allow my code to work. I also had to do research to figure out how to change the final amount into currency form so that it would show up in money form. Once I ...

C.H. "Need to Know." Google Slides, 2021. 4yrs at UChicago Original Loan: $281,802.00 Total Time: 60 years, I will be 82 years old Total paid: $983,212.22 2 years at Wright College then transfer to UChicago Original Loan: $126,661.72 Total time: 30 years, I will be 52 years old Total paid: $286,879.76 This AP has helped show me how important it is to get financial aid and scholarships for college to help with the college costs. I am someone who is very conscious about what I do with my money, so having to pay off a student loan for most of my adult life actually scares me. I would rather put in the hard work now and reap the benefits later in life when I am then financially stable. Both of these paths are options for me, but I highly recommend getting a scholarship and financial aid. I like setting myself up for success.
