Wow Factor!!!For me this project was honestly very interesting, due to learning more in depthabout the systems rather than just knowing the basics of each one. What I had didbefore hand, was create a set of notes that I made sure to look organized andappealing by using a lot of colors, and handwriting it out before I put it on to mygoogle docs. That’s the little extra effort I had put instead of just, uploading all mydata onto the google docs.
