Pocket Money Problem

This SCRATCH game was built by me as part of the FOM series i.e. Fear of Maths turning to Fun of Maths as submission to Google Code 2020 submission.

This is a simple game to play with Pocket Money to be deposited in piggy banks and learn Algebra.
The game helps understand the concept of solving Linear Algebraic equations.

  1. First screen explains the problem
  2. Second screen provides option to select the money to be deposited in the two piggy banks and solves the problem by listing all the values in a table.
  3. Third screen shows the equations for both the piggy banks.
  4. Fourth screen uses Coordinate Geometry to plot the graph as per the values of the table from screen two. The answer is in the intersection point of the Iggy values plot and Diggy values a plot
  5. The fifth screen provides a Linear Algebraic equation solver which enables user to input values as per ones choice to arrive values for X and Y.

My Learnings from FTC

In my journey, in FTC I learned many things and came across many different challenges. I had to overcome all of these challenges and I learnt a lot in the process.  One of the major things that I learnt was 3d designing. Before I had some minor knowledge of using Fusion 360 but I learnt a lot more during this competition. As the only 3d Designer in the team I had to design many of the major parts we needed for the competition. Here are a few of the things that I designed. Battery Holder To hold the battery to our robot, we needed a holder to store it and help us attach it to the robot. To start, I took the battery measurements by the scale and created a sketch to be the base, then extruded the walls and the base. I made a slot for the wire of the battery to be able to come out.  With the rough design of the battery holder down, I started the refinement of the build and filleted down all the sharp edges. However, if I were to re-design this part, I could count this step as a mistake as

Brahma of Goa

Over the last few weeks, as a part of my participation in the E-Yantra Virtual Museum competition, I have been on a journey to discover the history of one statue and its entire story. I have scoured the internet searching for leads, visited temples, talked to priests and gone around Goa to find out about this one statue. This statue is a sculpture of Brahma, a Hindu god. It is chiselled black stone and originates in the Kadamba era (12th century). It is decorated with many details, stands tall, and is bearded with Kadamba-style designs. The figure carries a ladle in its upper right Hand, The Vedas in its upper left hand. Kamandal in its lower left hand and chanting beads in its lower right hand.  Now let me walk you through my story about this statue. First, I saw images of the statue and then tried searching for information on it online. I found a few excellent articles, but those still wouldn’t give the full details. After a lot of scouring around the internet, I found one article w
