Efficiency is something that is highly important to me, so when i am given a lab that is about algorithms i become giddy! Todays lab is about calculating the dot product of a multiple dimensioned vector, lets walk through this.

Something about working in CPP made my abilites as a coder quite free and open. I felt so much more challenged and thus motivated to push through and achieve things [...]
