Generate Concepts
The main goal of Project 1.1.9 Soldering: Random Number Generator was to assemble a random number generator using VEX parts. We had to properly solder the correct parts onto the circuit board and then test the RNG to see how random it really was.

Conclusion Questions:
1. My random number generator seemed to generate more 1s than any other number. Out of 100 rolls, 1 was generated 30 times (30%) and the next closest number was 4 which was generated 20 times (20%). Compared to the 16.67% (approximately 17 rolls) that all the numbers should've been rolled the number generator does not seem too fair.
2. The term "bug" or "debugging" has a weird origin. The origin came from U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Grace Hopper who was working on a computer along side the Harvard technical team and she discovered something unusual inside one of the computers. It turned out to be a moth and she logged it into the log book as "First actual case of bug being found."
