...The History of Visual Basic dates back to 1991 when VB 1.0 was introduced. The core of Visual Basic was constructed on the older BASIC language, which was the prevalent programming language throughout the 1980s. It's a computer programming system established and owned by Microsoft. Visual Basic was originally produced to make it easier to write programs for the Windows computer operating system. The basis of Visual Basic is an earlier programming language called BASIC that was invented by Dartmouth College professors John Kemeny and Thomas Kurtz. Visual Basic is often denoted by using just its initials; VB. Visual Basic is easily the most extensively used computer programming system in the history of software. Microsoft Visual Basic is the most common language and development environment for developers coding to the Windows operating system platform. From modest beginnings it has grown to be part of personal computing itself, and with the latest incarnation, Visual Basic .NET in Beta it looks as if it may be in use for another decade or longer. Visual Basic 1.0 for Windows was released in May 1991 at a trade show in Atlanta, Georgia. Visual Basic 2.0 was released in November 1992. The programming environment was easier to use, and its speed was improved. Visual Basic 3.0 was released in 1993 and came in Standard and Professional versions. Visual Basic 4.0 was released in August 1995. It was the first version that could produce 32-bit as well as 16-bit Windows programs. It...

...Most Politicians agree that with poverty increasing and technology improving, something has to be done to save the economy. One idea that has gained popularity is the proposal of a universal basic income. UBI is a proposed system that provides money or other aid to all citizens in the country. The idea is that all citizens will receive the same amount of money annually for doing nothing but living in order to reduce poverty and help people survive. There are many controversies in the universal basic income debate: politicians cannot decide what the basic income should be, if it could be achievable, and if it could truly benefit everyone. The first problem politicians face when looking into UBI is the question of what the basic income would...

...monthly grants, or free money to everyone. This is what a universal basic income (UBI) has been called in other names. The notion of a universal basic income has been literally everywhere for a very long period, at least since the aftermath of the world war I. A UBI is an income given without any strings attached to every adult and child (or in some version, only citizens) to provide at least an adequate level of resources. A basic income guarantees each citizen an income sufficient to meet his or her basic needs. The money would be given even regardless of whether the recipients are in the jobs or not. Strikingly for UBI, it is not mean-testing benefits, meaning that no family stuck in poverty traps where benefit withdrawal erodes any increase in earning. Yet, there are many critics of a universal basic income, the most common one is the cost objection. It argues that the cost of providing everyone with an adequate income floor, beneath which no one would fall us out of reach for governments and public finance. Other critics pointed out at some deficiencies that the incentives for people to work would be somewhat eliminated. Yet, what many critics seem to not recognize is that many objections is usually based on inadequate and misleading information, and that the current system of welfare is being implemented obsoletely and ineffectively. In this paper, first, I will demonstrate reasons why the idea of a universal basic income, in terms of feasibility, is financially feasible to be...

...| Purpose In this project, a database management system will be implemented to make the self-ordering easier. The users for this program will be used for customers in various restaurants. It will take a customer’s order, total it, and give them an amount. The system will instruct the customer to enter the correct amount. If the amount is not enough, the system will instruct them to enter more money. If it is too less, however, the system will them issue out change. Use of Visual Basics Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) will be used because it is a programming language built right into many Microsoft programs. This language is built on the Basic programming language made popular by PCs over the past 25 years. VBA shares similarities with other Windows implementations of the Basic language, such as Visual Basic. If you are familiar with programming in a different language (including using macros), you can quickly get up to speed with VBA. There are a few terms you should know before you start programming in VBA: * Procedure. A section of programming code, designed to accomplish a specific task, which your program statements can use throughout your program. There are two types of procedures: functions and subroutines. * Function. A procedure that returns a value after it completes its task. When called, functions typically appear on the right side of an equal sign in an expression. * Subroutine. A procedure that does not return a value after it completes its...

INTRODUCTION The last two decades have been a period of tremendous turmoil and change in the business environment. Competition in many industries has become worldwide in scope, and the pace of innovation in products and services has accelerated. These changes in business environment have resulted in organisations attempting to transform themselves to become more competitive. Since the early 1980s, many companies have gone through several waves of improvement programs, starting with Just-In-Time (JIT), then moving on to Total Quality Management (TQM), Lean Production, Six Sigma and many other various management programs. Implementing these programmes would require tools for data collection, measure and monitor. There are seven quality control tools which are: * Data figures ...

...Basic Combat Training Basic Combat Training, often referred to as just BCT, is the introduction Soldiers recieve as they enter the Army. It is often considered a life-changing experience, something that people remember, reflect on, and tell stories to their grand children about decades later. BCT is not easy...as we often say here, there is nothing basic about Basic Training. BCT takes 10 weeks to complete. Unlike schools which typically have between six and seven hours a day of teaching, the Army trains for about 12-14 hours a day, Monday through Saturday. We try to avoid too much sitting in a classroom...but it does happen: We also spend a little bit of time outside; getting some fresh and air and, when the opportunity presents itself, a little exercise: Traveling...by foot: Climbing ropes: And if you're good enough, graduating in front of your friends and Family! Week 0: Reception Soldiers complete administrative actions required to become part of the Army. Simple things such as medical examinations, setting up pay, and initial issue of equipment is completed. This process typically takes between two and three days but can take over a week in some cases. Weeks 1-3: Red Phase Welcome to BCT! Soldiers meet their Drill Sergeants and begin training. While often considered a difficult week for Soldiers due to the adjustments, it is actually pretty easy compared to later weeks. Most classroom-type training occurs in this period where Soldiers learn about: * Ballistics...

...The Basic Law or Grundgesetz for the Federal Republic of Germany was approved on 8 May 1949, and, with the signature of the western Allies of World War 2 on 12 May, came into effect on 23 May. The authors also ensured that human rights and human dignity was made the central and core part of the Basic Law. Key concepts in the basic law are principles of democracy, republicanism, federalism and social responsibility. These principles are constitutionally entrenched and they cannot be removed or repealed by the normal amendment process. Firstly this essay will look into what lead to the development of the new Basic Law and how the new parliamentary democracy was put into place with separation of powers into different branches of government. Secondly the essay will examine what were the specific changes from pre-1945 Germany and if which areas these changes were most visible. Here it will be important to look at the fundamentally differences from the Weimar Constitution, but also what the new Basic Law chose to keep from the Weimar Constitution. And why the authors of the Basic law felt that this was the safest way to construct a good state for all Germans where the sins of the past would never be repeated. In 1948 the three Western Allied military governors met in Frankfurt with the chief executive of the various states and “recommended” the calling of a constituent assembly by September 1, 1948, which was to draft a constitution for the three Western zones. None of the state...

...SYNOPSIS TITLE OF THE PROJECT HOSTEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PROBLEM STATEMENT This project needs to create the Hostel Management System (HMS) to organize the rooms, mess, student’s record and the other information about the students. All hostels without HMS are managed manually by the hostel office. And hence there is a lot of strain on the person who are running the hostel. This particular project deals with the problems on managing a hostel and avoids the problem which occur when carried manually. INTRODUCTION In hostels without a HMS all the things have to be done manually. The Registration form verification to the different data processing are done manually. Thus there are a lot of repetitions which can be easily avoided. Identification of the drawbacks of the existing system leads to the designing of computerized system that will be compatible to the existing system with the system which is more user friendly and more GUI oriented. We can improve the efficiency of the system, thus overcome the drawbacks of the existing system. Hostel management gives on idea about how the students details, room allocation, mess expenditure are maintained in the particular concern. The hostel management system also includes some special features like How many students can live in a room, and the students of the hostel can be recognized from their ID number. The administration has the unique identity for each members as well as students details. The stock management...

...Leah Dolce ECO 103 Mortgage Project While doing this project, I kept finding myself to be very indecisive as to what I wanted in a home and what things would be important to me if I were to purchase one. This project helped me understand the basics of buying a home such as: where I would want my kids to go to school, how many bedrooms, how many bathrooms, property, neighborhood reputation, and much more. I had very little knowledge about most of the surrounding area so now I know what kind of research I would have to do to make sure I know exatcly what I want when purchasing a home. I did know I wanted it to be at least 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and have an updated kitchen. I was able to find those things in the home I selected but what I didn't realize was what the cost would be. There is a huge financial difference between a 15 year fix and a 30 year fix mortgage. For the home I selected it was a $522.76 difference in the monthly payment and a $91,271.79 difference in the amount of interest I would be paying for the life of the loan. If I was abel to afford such a hefty, monthly payment I would choose the 15 year mortgage because in the long run it would be cheaper. The lesson learned here, though, is find a more affordable house and make updates as you go along. All -in-all I had fun doing this project and it helped me understand the process into buying a home and gave me great internet resources to do...

...nonstop work. Startups are a counterexample to the rule that haste makes waste. (Too much money seems to be as bad for startups as too much time, so we don't give them much money either.) A week before Demo Day, we have a dress rehearsal called Rehearsal Day. At other Y Combinator events we allow outside guests, but not at Rehearsal Day. No one except the other founders gets to see the rehearsals. The presentations on Rehearsal Day are often pretty rough. But this is to be expected. We try to pick founders who are good at building things, not ones who are slick presenters. Some of the founders are just out of college, or even still in it, and have never spoken to a group of people they didn't already know. So we concentrate on the basics. On Demo Day each startup will only get ten minutes, so we encourage them to focus on just two goals: (a) explain what you're doing, and (b) explain why users will want it. That might sound easy, but it's not when the speakers have no experience presenting, and they're explaining technical matters to an audience that's mostly...
