2h Tonight I did the usual quick preflight problem for launch academy and then went into cs50. There was a quiz that was pretty informative and then I had to jump into a program and figure out how to write a purple pixel into a bmp file. This has been pretty frustrating. I’ve tried the hex code as an int, string, and single quote string (is that a const?) and I’ve tried it in binary as well. I haven’t figured out the right way to represent the color so that I can properly inject it into the program. I know it exists, but I’m somewhat stuck on how to find it.

I think I’m just going to let it beat me for the night. I have time on my side. I also put in my notice today at work. This is really happening.
