11th week of the course

on the 11th week of the course, the professor firstly explained what is to be done for the final assignment tat is due on friday. Then, he moved on to contents in the lecture notes and  talked about how internet works. He sent a ping to a certain website in austrailia and showed how long it takes send a response back to his computer. Also on thursday, he showed the daily time spent by human beings at which their work is most productive. He showed that after certain time has passed hour work results in negative outcome due to error, and sleeplessness is one of the biggest factor why that causes this depressing result. Our cognitive skills is ultimately limited when we do not sleep.

I also have to mention, I was going to write a slog about problem solving question so i sent Danny an email requesting some problem solving questions. However i noticed that i sent the email to the erroneous address of heap@cs.utoronto.edu instead of heap@cs.toronto.edu. Sorry for the mistake.
