I felt like reading chapters 10 and 11 validated some of the lessons that I began to learn over the course of working on the midterm. At the start of the project, my code was deeply disorganized. I was thinking of the whole project as one still image and not thinking more seriously about how to make the individual components work best. That said, as I continued working, I began to see the importance of organizing my code, which is underlined in chapter 10. I created way too many classes as a means of keeping my code clean, which is not quite what the book meant, but is along the same lines. If I had read the chapters before my project, I would’ve thought more about the individual components of the matchmaker, and I would have thought to do things like create a loop for lines instead of drawing 40 individual lines.
