Extra Day 1 of 4 used for this project!!!

Repo Link

Part 1) Stream Compaction
Implemented all requirements, did performance analysis. Did not do extra credit.

Part 2) Character Recognition
Implemented Perceptron, but was not able to resolve all bugs with backpropagation in time. My own fault, but time was incredibly tight. Forward propagation works with some caveats.

Thoughts
Even though I didn't finish the Character Recognition project, I still think its enjoyable and very interesting, if a little frustrating. However, the instructions are lacking. There are no requirements and its easy to get thrown down a rabbit-hole of different implementations. I think this project would benefit from having clearly defined requirements and some more skeleton code. Maybe having skeletons for the steps of Back-Propagation with no implementation inside.

(I may try to fix the perceptron before midnight of 9/18 to secure the project)
