I Became a Genius Engineer

University student Lee Cheol-woo (4)

“Okay! Perfect!”

After coding, I admired myself. How can I make it so perfect?

When I compiled and ran it, it was perfect.

It had more functions than the programs made by seniors that the professor showed, and the UX, or user accessibility, was great when I saw it.

The UI interface is also great.

‘Wow, how did you make it?’

I couldn’t believe it even though I made it, so I tested it a few times and tried it. I thought it was enough to sell it to a real hair shop.

Actually, I didn’t know what kind of program hair salons use.

‘hmm… … . anyways what do i do now? Should I contact Areum and Minseok?’

This was a group assignment.

I thought it wouldn’t matter if I submitted it as it is, but since it’s a group assignment, I had to contact my fellow members Areum and Minseok.

‘Oh, I don’t want to give you a bus ride.’

I thought about that for a while, but I also received a lot of help from Changsoo so far, so I thought I should give a little bit.

Then, Arumi and Minseok were invited to a group chat room.

“How do we do our group assignments?”

I dug into the group chat room and left a message, but there was no contact for a long time. An hour later, the alarm went off.

“uh… … . Since there is a senior I know, I will ask if there is a sauce.”

The first to reply was Minseok.

I haven’t even read what Areum is doing yet.

“Wouldn’t there be a problem if I used that old man’s sauce? Even so, the professor is strict.”

“I don’t think you can make it if you don’t do that?”

“Well, I’m going to try making one.”

“Are you iron? Is that possible?」

“Are you going to try hard for once?”

“Oh, what is it?”

“I also have to study now. lol”

“Um, omg omg I get it, but I’ll get the sauce from you, so I’ll use that as a reference and make it.”

“okay! thank you.”

I already made it all up, but I said that and moved on.

「Why can’t modern beauty be seen alone?」

“I don’t know, you must be busy.”

“Do you have a phone number? Give me a call.”

“for a moment.”

「Lee Areum Contact」

「ㅇㅋㅇㅋ I’ll give you a call.」

「ㅇㅋㅋ」

After a while, Minseok uploaded Areumie’s contact information and called.

Dharreung- Tiriring-

After several beeps, the phone did not answer.

“Hmm, I’m not answering the phone. If you see this, give me a call.”

So I left KakaoTalk in the group chat room, washed up, and went to bed.

* * *

Two weeks later, the day of the report arrived.

In the meantime, I have been in contact with Lee Ah-reum, but I have been putting off participating in the report for various reasons.

In the meantime, I looked at the contents that Areum Lee posted in the group chat room.

“sorry. Because I’m not feeling well, so I’m hospitalized.”

Along with the message, there was a picture of him being hospitalized. The face didn’t come out.

“Minseok-ah, what should I do? You never attended.”

“So why don’t you show your face once, making all sorts of excuses?”

“Are you going to drop your name?”

I wanted to get my name out of the report. I was going to hug you even if I just pretended to cooperate.

“Um…if you want.”

“It’s too much. If you don’t want to do it, you say you don’t want to do it, doesn’t it mean you don’t want to be a bad person?”

“So. I looked, but he wasn’t hospitalized that day.”

“then?”

“I heard you went out with some guy?”

“So? What’s that picture?”

“I don’t know where it might have been stolen.”

“f*ck.”

No, just say no if you don’t want to do it. What the hell does it mean to avoid something like that?

“Just drop the name.”

“I guess so.”

I opened my laptop and removed the name of Areum Lee from the presentation materials.

And soon after, Areum Lee entered the classroom.

“I’m sorry. I’ve been sick lately.”

she said with a nonchalant expression.

“Yes. What can I do?”

“Are you ready for the report presentation?”

“It’s just that, it’s fine.”

“thank you.”

She was, of course, thinking of getting carried away. bad year.

Soon it was on time and the professor came in.

“Come on, everyone, sit down. Today is the day of the announcement of the midterm substitute group assignment. Everyone has been well prepared, right?”

There were 5 groups in total, of which we were the first.

“We will start the presentation with group 5. The presenter in group 5, please come forward and prepare your presentation.”

Fortunately, we weren’t kicking off the first Zora announcement.

Soon after, the presenter in Group 5 finished preparing for the presentation and opened his mouth.

“Hello. I’m Ha Dong-soo, the presenter of Group 5. I’ll start presenting the hair salon management program right away.”

He greeted them and began his presentation.

“First of all, our group … (omitted)…… so we made it like this. Thank you for listening to the announcement.”

I heard the presentation of 5 groups, but there were errors in the middle of the demonstration process, and the program itself did not run smoothly.

Before discussing UI or UX, the program was not properly created.

“Yes. Please come out to the next 4 groups.”

The professor immediately proceeds with the 4th group presentation.

The announcement of Article 4 was similar. Compared to Article 5, it’s just that there weren’t as many errors?

However, it was still much worse than the program created by the seniors shown by the previous professor. There were many missing features.

Then, the presentation of Article 3 ended, and the presentation of Article 2 with Changsoo began.

“Hello. I’m Changsoo Yoon. I’ll proceed with the presentation right away with a demonstration.”

Changsoo immediately started the program.

Certainly, it was noticeable that the drive was smooth compared to other groups. Because the other groups had an error from running the program.

“First is the member registration form.”

The main screen of the program came out and I opened the member registration form in the upper right corner.

It was definitely made by Changsoo, so the form was organized well, and the user experience, or UX, could not be said to be good, but it wasn’t bad either.

Changshu continued to demonstrate the program.

“Next is the point accumulation system for members.”

accrual system? What is that? Are you just earning points?

When Changsoo demonstrated the savings system, I realized that it was different from what I thought.

The point accumulation system he created was to determine the level of each member separately and organize how many points the member accumulated.

In my case, it was just a 5% fixed point accumulation, but what Changsoo created was that it was possible to divide the membership level and set the points to be accumulated.

‘Wow, even implemented that function?’

Certainly Changshu was great.

It had more functions than programs made by seniors, and there were no errors. It worked very smoothly.

“I will finish the announcement above.”

“That’s really amazing. Did you say Yoon Chang-soo?”

After Changsu finished his presentation, the professor, who hadn’t said a word until now, opened his mouth.

“Yes. This is Yoon Chang-soo.”

“It runs much more stably and has more functions than the programs created by the seniors I showed you first. Changsoo Student.”

The professor was full of praise.

“yes.”

“If you don’t mind, can I use it as a reference for the next class?”

“Yes. It’s fine.”

… … . If you choose only good programs like that, of course the programs made by seniors look good.

But has Chang-soo taken over that position as well? That’s great too.

“Okay then, please come out and prepare for the presentation.”

It was a bit of a burden because I was behind Changsoo, but I went forward confidently. On the way, Minseok from behind cheered me on.

“This is Lee Cheol-woo, presenter of group 1. Let’s start the presentation.”

Finally, my presentation began.

* * *

‘Certainly Changsoo is good at it. I have high expectations for this class.’

After hearing the presentation in Article 2, Professor Lee Jung-in thought. For four years, his curriculum was the same, and during those four years, the hair salon example program never changed.

But this time, a student named Changsu broke and changed that record, so I thought it was a great achievement.

‘Is Group 1 Lee Ah-reum and Lee Cheol-woo? It must be obvious.’

And when it was Lee Cheol-woo’s turn to present, the professor had such a thought. I knew the level of students I taught during the semester.

Professor Lee Jung-in listened to the presentation without much expectation.

“First, I will demonstrate the hair shop program.”

“Loading… … .」

On the previous screen, a progress bar indicating loading appeared and the program was executed.

‘uh? You implemented a progress bar? Are you considerate of the loading time?’

Then Professor Lee Jung-in thought. It was the first time such a program had been implemented.

he was interested

“It’s been implemented. And I’ve been thinking about what the first thing hair salon managers do. First, add members.”

Cheol-woo opened the member addition form by pressing the add member button.

‘uh? what? Isn’t that an animation?’

Cheol-woo’s program was different from previous programs. When I opened the member management window, the window opened very smoothly.

The word ‘soft’ is important here.

Anyone could simply open a window, but not everyone could open it gently. Animation has to be included, but it is still difficult for students now, so the professor explained briefly in the previous lecture and moved on.

“and.”

Changsoo, who was watching it, let out an exclamation.

“After adding members, the next step is to search, right?”

Lee Cheol-woo continued his presentation.

‘oh? You implemented the search that way?’

His program was also unique in search.

Until now, everyone had to put the member’s name in the search box and press the Enter key to search for members, but Cheolwoo’s program did not have such a cumbersome process.

Members came up on the list even if you just searched for the first letter of the name.

Even if you only searched for ‘Lee Cheo’, names such as ‘Lee Cheol-woo, Lee Cheon-shin, Lee Cheom-jong’ came out.

The meaning of the word was that it was programmed to automatically call members by searching for consonants.

‘That’s… … . kinda awesome no, that’s great How did you come up with that idea? How did you implement it like that?’

The professor kept thinking while watching it.

It was the first program he created with this kind of thinking about user experience UX and convenience UI after he created this curriculum.

Cheol-woo continued to demonstrate the program.

The professor was surprised every time Cheol-woo gave a demonstration.

Previously, I had researched the programs actually used by hair salons when professors were creating curricula.

It would have been better if it was better than the program used in the field, but I never did it.

‘No, it’s just not good enough. Is a program like that innovative? Who do you think would do a search like that?’

Now, in 2010, people weren’t interested in UX and UI yet.

This is an era where there is a strong perception that programs simply need to be run.

In such an era, Cheol-woo was bringing new innovations. Just like Apple’s Steve Jobs is a UX genius.

The engineering talent given by Cheol-woo’s grandfather was working in more areas than expected.

“Finally, the settlement statement.”

Cheol-woo’s program did not end there. Member management is important for hair salon programs, but data on sales is also important.

The program, even the settlement details, was made very well.

Of course, you can see daily, weekly, and monthly sales, and many aspects such as material cost and labor cost were considered.

Even if you bring it to the tax office right away, it won’t be inferior.

“Thank you for listening to the announcement. It was Lee Cheol-woo.”

clap clap clap clap clap clap-

Loud applause filled the classroom.

‘what? that student? Did you say Lee Cheol-woo? How can you make such a perfect program?’

The professor was just bewildered.
