Completed Module 3 of #Nand2Tetris Part 2.

I had to create a VM Translator to convert VM language to Assembly. Tedious. Not that fun, to be honest. Essentially it’s a text parsing challenge.

Next module is continued work on the VM Translator. 😓

I’ve completed Module 2 of #Nand2Tetris Part 2.

Or… it’s a bit confusing because Coursera calls it Module 2, but internally it is Unit 0. (I’ll stick with it the Coursera naming)

This week was re-hash of Week 4 from Part 1 of the course. So it’s really just a refresher on the Hack CPU machine language & its assembly language.

Completed Module 1 of #Nand2Tetris Part 2.

It’s just an overview week with a (very) simple assignment. Now it’s on to module 2 where the real fun begins!

Finally starting #Nand2Tetris Part 2!
I just started playing the game Turing Complete. Super fun. It’s basically a gamified version of Nand2Tetris.

Completed #Nand2Tetris Part 1.

Really great course! I’m looking forward to Part 2.

I’m about halfway through #Nand2Tetris Part 1. And, wow, what a great course. I already feel like I have a much better understanding of how computers work.

Per recent news, Harvard’s amazing #CS50 program is a worthy program if you’re looking for somewhere to donate. It’s an amazing educational resource, and they give all of their content away for free.

Harvard University | Make a gift for CS50

Demanding, but definitely doable. Social, but educational. A focused topic, but broadly applicable skills. CS50 is the quintessential Harvard course.
