* Lecture: Switches, Logic, Loops
* Homework 3: Proposal for Midterm Project: Switches** Assignment: Build a circuit with a switch. Think creatively about the idea of a switch: you don't have to (and probably shouldn't) use a push button switch from your lab kit or the knife switch from lab. What could a switch turn on or off? What types of switches are there? Do some hold particular interest for you.** Due next week in section: *** 1 paragraph describing*** 1 visualization of the aesthetic of the piece, how is it going to look? *** 1 diagram of the function of the piece, how is it going to work? *** Bring a printed copy to give to your TA for credit, and post it your personal page on the wiki, under "Midterm Project Proposal."*** We will discuss these in lecture next week, and you will be allowed/expected to change your idea before week 5, when they are due.
