This week's reading was much more easier and understandable than last week's readings. These chapters were about computer companies in the 1970s and what they did. It was interesting to read about these computer companies' humble beginnings. It was especially interesting because the two biggest computer companies right now, Microsoft and Apple, were so thoroughly covered in the chapters. Aside from that, I was able to read about flow charting by Bill Streib, who did a great job in explaining it.

After reading and testing pseudo code and flowcharts, I feel that I would be more in the pseudo code camp. Personally pseudo code is easier for me.
