While yesterday it was difficult to get into the coding, yesterday evening went much better - though I didn't code much, I made a design change or two that should be beneficial moving forward. I also started reworking my thesis project's Makefile. When I started programming the project, I didn't have a Makefile at all, then I reached the point that I was compiling multiple executables on the command line and decided it was time for a Makefile. That was a great improvement which decreased my recompile time drastically. Last night, I reached the point where the project is big enough that recompiling the entire thing for one small change in a function was taking too much time. Alas, after reworking the Makefile to incorporate dependencies, recompiling is speedy again.

Striking Distance

The thesis project is getting within striking distance to a functioning prototype.
