Celebrating Pi day!

"Celebrated each year on March 14th (3.14), Pi Day is dedicated to the mathematical constant, Pi. First recognized 30 years ago in 1988 by physicist Larry Shaw, Pi Day observers often celebrate with a slice of their favorite pie in honor of the number’s delicious sounding name.

Notated by the Greek letter “𝛑”, pi represents the ratio between a circle’s circumference (perimeter) to its diameter (distance from side to side passing through the center), and is a fundamental element of many mathematical fields, most significantly Geometry. Though modern mathematicians have calculated more than one TRILLION decimal places beyond the standard “3.14,” pi is an irrational number that continues on to infinity! It’s an important ingredient in the formula for the area of a circle, A=𝛑r²." (Google)

Coding for Girls

It has been a while since we looked at the following resource but I had a great time learning how to code a Wonder Woman game. I decided to work on level three of this project. My blocks were not doing much in the beginning so I  continued to work on the puzzle changing a few blocks here and there and still nothing. Then  I clicked on the help button and under "see example"  they show you how the blocks need to look like for the game to run. So I  noticed where I had made mistakes. Then tried it one more time and sure enough, it worked.

There are different projects that can be worked out on the menu bar. This is really good for those interested in coding. Have fun and code!
