Beginning of class we went over the notes from day 10 on one dimensional arrays. We then began discussion on two and three dimensional arrays and how to read them from given values using some hand examples on the whiteboard. Mason introduced a new compiler that we can download and be able to start write to our own files. Virtual-C is one of many compilers available online for use on personal computers. Learning how to write to files in C has very similar syntax to printf and scarf. Only difference is the addition of the letter "f" in front to call to the file. Same goes for opening and closing the file with "fopen" & "fclose". For homework we were assigned to write a program that would print out data from a weather balloon. The program would store time, velocity, and altitude in a data file called "balloon1.txt".
