Inspiration
We’ve noticed that memorizing speeches or monologues for school can be difficult; in addition, checking one’s script when you get stuck can be hard since it’s confusing to find the spot you were at, and when you do, it’s easy to end up reading more than you intended.
What it does
Our project addresses this difficulty by creating a program that will help you memorize your lines and give you hints when you need them.
How we built it
We used java and repl.it to create code that would simulate reciting the text we need to memorize, and added in useful futures such as a “hint”, which feeds you the next word when you’re stuck.
Challenges we ran into
Neither of us had been to a hackathon before, so we initially weren’t really sure where to start. Eventually, we came up with an idea, and repl.it helped a lot with being able to start coding together easily. We also had a lot of trouble with implementing speech recognition and ended up deciding to make the program text-based instead.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Being able to troubleshoot our code and solve problems together
What we learned
Roughly how speech recognition works Some java string operations
