Coding

By Anonymous -
Hi!☺

I know it's been a while since I last posted anything, so I decided to post about what I've been busy with for the last few AGES.

Everyone knows about coding, but how many everyone's actually know HOW to code? Not as many as you might think, and how many of them are girls?

Annoying Fact ↓
Only one in every seven engineers are girls.

    I hope you are enjoying it a bit more than you were before Alison, it's a challenge worth conquering.

    Its really cool you and your team worked together to get your project completed. I know how hard you have worked to get your vision into a workable solution. Are you planning on doing any more coding? Have you got the coding spark now?

    This is quite fascinating- wellthought out and you have marshalled your arguments extremely well.Yes there are fewer females in science and ,in fact,most professional areas but it is changing-slowly!.In our lives we have seen the biology and engineering schools at Canterbury University change so that 1 in 2 people that you meet there are females but it seems likely that elsewhere this balance is not maintained. Our colleague Dr Chris McKAY at NASA telld us that females are prominent in the 'search for life on exoplanets programme" and at Oxford university many of the colleges have more females than males and what used to be all male colleges now have 1 in 3 to 1 in 5 females. This is a start and it is folk like you who can help change this state of affairs and your coding article is very musch welcomed in this debate - so well done Allison!

    I'd like to see the app that your group made. Glad that you got it finished.
    Sounds interesting and quite different to when I used to write computer code back in the early 1990's:
    .loop LDA #0:STA (&80),Y:INY:TYA:CMP #10:BNE loop

    ...I think this would work. Bit of a dim memory now... What is my little piece of code actually doing? :-)

The Beach & Me

By Anonymous -
It's not going to be warm. But I'll do it. Maybe. I know I'll just get up to my waist, get out and roll around in warm sand, go back and wash it of, and so on until I get warm enough to stay in. By then maybe we'll be getting out! There's no point, but it's fun.  I only like swimming at the beach if I'm not at the beach. Which makes no sense, but anyway, the point is, I'm not going to enjoy the salty swim.  I shuffle up to the waves of ice and hesitate slightly before stepping forward... It's so warm! This was my opinion of the Frankley beach day. It was really warm, for the beach, but there weren't really any waves.😞

Are You Getting Hungry? My Quick Write Story: LOLLIES!

By Anonymous -
My shop is a sweet shop. I never get hungry. Inside the shop is sweets in every colour of the rainbow, and a few colours that aren’t. There is also a small ice-cream factory at the back of the store, in which you can create your own flavours! On the side of the shop is a lolly factory that makes every sweet ever in existence. Lemon juice, strawberry sauce and vanilla essence get creamed together into a soft,chewy lolly that has low sugar. Squished blueberries, cream and milk. Raspberries, vanilla ice cream and cinnamon. I love taste testing! From the outside, the shop looks normal: discounts covering every inch of the windows and lots of customers streaming in. But inside the shop, everything seems better. It’s probably the smells of millions, no BILLIONS, of sweets being mixed together, and lifting everyone’s tension. As soon as you walk out of the store, you miss it so much you want to go back in. But then you look at the time, go back home, and dream about my amazing, f
