Each year, the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) kicks off January. It is a massive exhibition of all kinds of tech, products, cars, etc. Last year 142,465 people attended.
Welcome to your final!
Important info:
1. restart your computer before you begin work. We have had some people lose their program when the computer froze.
2. if you are done with your final program, you may quietly work on other classwork or watch videos with headphones. No games because some players are too rowdy. The rest of the class deserves peace.
