CS 424 Project 1


By: Jennifer Kinahan

Things Done with the Project

  • Zooming with the x axis allows for proper aggregation of data. With the focus of the mouse you can focus on a certain spot and redraw the graph
  • viewing data in F and C
  • Being able to look at the data on any scale by clicking the mouse within the graph
  • Look at any amount of rooms and all rooms
  • Display map data and temperatures at any given point using '-'
  • Select a year and look at yearly data -- focusing on Monthly or Weekly or by-the-hour views
  • Using a white on black colour scheme
  • Displaying data chart graph in colours un-related to temperature
  • Used controlP5 exclusively for buttons and checkboxes
  • Used the graphing class from milk tea coffee in order to display data lines and titles

Itty Bitty Bugs

  • Sometimes the room temperature data will write over a previous temperature listing.
    This could be fixed by creating flags to make sure that the temperature for a room wasn't being written over as it went through the entry look loop
  • The minute data sometimes prints a '+'
    This is a problem because I used excel to parse some of the data. Some of the '0's were shaved off. The data was not particularly harmed, but instead quite an ugly flaw for the user.
  • The data lines at the bottom sometimes print askew.
    This could be fixed by changing the offset.
