Andrew Sandler's Class Journal Entry
- I feel that I do have a better understanding of how the data mentioned in the 5.1 article looks in its stored form.
- I really don't think any part of this assignment didn't make sense to me. I'm not sure if this answer suffices but really it was pretty easy. There is a lot of online documentation on the different SQL Query commands.
- I think most of what was more difficult for me was just getting the hang of which Access Ribbon different buttons are under. I felt like the data made intuitive sense. I'm not sure how I would have faired with the primary keys because of the issues the class ran into with the FDA's documentation. The other difficulty I had was just getting my virtual machine connected through lmu to my laptop to use windows.
- I would definitely like to know more about how to use the tons and tons of data we have to actually organize the data in a way we find really helpful insights rather than just the basics which we had to do just to learn. So I think what I really mean is I am excited to be given a dataset that matters.
