Friday Night

Wednesday and thursday where only university days. My robot can walk now from A to B and reacts properly to simple obstacles. But he has a problem with bigger obstacles. Those, who are interested in it: I covered the pathfinding algorithm from the algorithm for Bresenham-lines and added some simple reactions to obstacles. But I think I have to redesign it, because of the big-obstacle-problem. He needs a memory where he has already been on his path and he needs to calculate the path before he starts to walk on it.
On friday I did nothing special. I phoned StuBo for moving to 16B, I could only speak on a recorder. Better luck next time. I also contacted my home university for some bureucracy stuff. I guess this will never end until I would leave Germany. Not that I plan to do it (I hear the rumors arising again). But I hate this German behaviour first to think about rising for denying service. For my financial support from the state, I need two applications from the university. But the department of my university pretence for not knowing me, because I am not listed on a paper. Instead of looking into the computer system they send my brave Hans (thank you!!!) away. In Sweden it is totally different. I can go to several offices at the university asking applications. They are connected to one central system and have all information they need to help me. The biggest difference to Germany: they want to help me.
In the evening Nawelle invited me to a baskelball-match. Sundsvall has won against Öresund, but I liked Öresund more than Sundsvall. They commited less fouls and played with a better technique. Afterwards a private (salsa-) party started at town. A salsa-lesson was included and Julio, our teacher, had a lot to do. I did not participated the exercises, this time, but I am looking forward to next thursday where the advanced course starts. I can only remember the basic steps. Julios friend made a "punch". I thought it is a punch, but it was more related to the german word "panschen". It tasted well, but after I have seen how it was made I did not want anymore. It was wodka with juice. Alright. But it was also the rest of forgotten beer cans and what ever was standing around in the kitchen. Bon appetit.
Today I slept very long unwilling to get out of my bed. Tonight I will have my second swedish partylife-experience.

Hey Markus.

Ich weiss zwar nicht was "Bresenham-lines" sind, aber hat du fuer deinen routen planer mal A* search gedacht?

Der kann dir wirklich schnell einen weg van A nach B planen, und es ist auch einfach zu implementieren. (Am besten mit Manhatten distance als under-estimate)

Viel spass damit
Maarten
Es gibt einen Bresenham-algorithmus zum Zeichnen einer Linie. Für straight-forward Wegstrecken ist das ausreichend.

A*search haben wir erst diese Woche gelernt, der Roboter aber schon längst eingereciht. Ich weiß aber auch nicht, ob der Simple-Agent mit so einem Algorithmus nicht schon überqualifiziert gewesen wäre ;)

Vad en bra dag för att...

Köra till Cykel-Nisse för att han fixar min cykel. Men han säger bara "Fredag". Visst. Jag komma då en gång till. Kolla biltidskrifter på ICA eftersom jag har kanske en ny job Läsa, läsa och läsa om thesis... på balkongen :D Dricka Cappuccino på balkongen... ensam :( ... Du har en bättre idé? Då kommentera! Läsa mer Svenska kanske ;)

Fourth day at Härnösand

This was used to be our free day. Somehow the sunday passed by quicker than the days before. After the party at night i left already at 11 o'clock i walked to the universitiy for internet. But when i arrived, the internet was down. I have waited for 2 hours, but it didn't come back. So i had to walk 15 minutes back to the hostel without having done anything usefull. When i arrived i heard the internet was up again. Arg, why didn' stay in bed before?! After my second visit at the u niversity (internet was realy online), it was afternoon and Jana, Klara, Katerina, Denis and i decided to walk to the east coast of the island to see the open sea. On our way we met Phil who joined our trip. We walked about an our until we arrived at a small village "Gånsvik" at the east coast. We climbed on several rocks. The landscape was great. After four hours at all we were back at the hostel. Nothing more happend and i was realy tired from walking so went to bed early again.

I will survive

Wow. I did it! I survived surströmming! At least it tastes better than it smells, but that's not difficult. I don't need that taste again in my life. Bäh.... But from the beginning: they day started with practicing for the surströmming-party. My group trained a pantomimic performance. Every group had to present their results from their surströmming-investigation. The first group presented a Talk-Show, the second was my own group, the third had a very funny surströming-commercial performance, the fourth has covered the beautiful song " Vem vet " (engl.: Who knows) to " Vem äter " (engl.: Who eats) and the last made a TV-Show. It was a great fun. After the introduction we were seperated into groups again to prepare the party. I decided to help the entertainmentgroup. We exercised a song, almost one hour. After that, Nicola and i decided to make a few scetches as serving couple. Because of this we went back to the hostel to change our dress, but when we returne...
