Acknowledgments

• I worked with my Homework partner Simon Wroblewski Friday afternoon in the computer lab. We compared our sequences to check for errors and talked about wiki formatting.
• While I worked with the people noted above, this individual journal entry was completed by me and not copied from another source. Kwrigh35 (talk) 13:41, 8 September 2017 (PDT)
