Well i thought i would come on here and do a quick update about a new project i got set this week. It's for SOFT232, hence the name of this post, sounds quite interesting.
Basically i've got to create an Java application that simulates something called "Langton's ant". Seems a bit random, but all it seems to be is something that uses a grid and 2 rules to navigate and create patterns...
Here's some links for "Langton's ant" on wiki and youtube...

I also had the first practical for this new project this week, went very well. I managed to create the logic behind the ant without much difficulty, no doubt it will get harder as it goes on.
Will update about the project next week...
