Independent Component 2 

I, student name, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 34 hours of work.


Hussain Zaidi

Professor, Cal Poly Poly Pomona
Chief Technology Officer, Alba Spectrum 

I completed the course CS 128, Introduction to C++ at Cal Poly Pomona.    


I was not officially enrolled in the course, but the Professor Zaidi was nice enough to let me sit in on the classes and add me to the Blackboard account so I could take the quizzes, midterm, and final. I have attached the links for my assignments, and some of the slides we went through in class.


This class helped me answer my EQ because it gave me insight on how telescopes operate. Each one of my answers involves a type of telescope: standard, radio, and gamma ray. These telescopes are run by software that are controlled by C++ commands. 

C++ is also helpful when organizing the massive amounts of data that come from these telescopes. Programs like IRAF and ROOT are also run by C++ commands. Effectively using the language means better histograms and more intricate manipulations of the data.
