Senior Project Paper

I think that main thing that I did well in my Senior Paper was that I clearly explained each of the different programming languages. I described them, in easy-to-read text, and their different functions. Without understanding the basic history of the languages and what they are used for, it's difficult to understand the point of my paper, to compare and research the three languages I chose. Just like any mathematical subject, programming isn't that difficult to understand. Once the basic math behind the langauges is explained, the languages are fairly straightforward to describe. Learning them is an entirely different paper focus altogther. I did learn Python for my project, but desrcribing how to use Python and how to program with it was a challenge I encountered. If I could go back and make changes to my paper I would have gone more in depth on how the uses of the languages vary. I described the uses but I didn't go into great detail on how the uses vary. I guess that how the uses vary can be fairly strightforward but I think it would have been more informative for my reader to have the variations in uses actually written out.
