Computational thinking is a problem solving process that includes analyzing data, data modeling/abstractions, identifying and testing possible solutions.

Link to your CSE3 Page. Then to your Proud.html and Sample.html. From there, click on your links to verify that all your links work. Show your grader your code to verify that you are using proper style

Having a presentation of information using PowerPoint allows one to easily analyze
