We are now halfway into our scheduled work plan finishing up the GUI and getting ready to write the code that will constitute the algorithm for computing the user's 'health score'. When we divided tasks among ourselves a couple weeks earlier, we did not know the length of time to which each task was realized. As of now, we no longer need the use of a database to store the food groups and other possible attributes and their values, so Jordan is now able to research how to import the Activity into the Sugar software with the help of the tutorial we all followed in beginning this project. Megan has come up with the algorithm that will calculate the health score, but as I said earlier, we are not ready to code it just yet. Our concern at the moment is helping Alex with the GUI (primarily with finding out how to get the input values from the combo boxes and selection drop-down menus), a task that has required the most attention so far.
A little drawback like this does not mean we are not on schedule, in fact, we are right on time with providing each deliverable as specified by our timeline. Flux Capacitors plans to make a great first activity for use with the Sugar software!
