...Running head: Module 1 Module 1 Homework Lesly Purvis Allied American University Author Note This paper was prepared for CIS 110, Module 1, taught by Farooq Afzal. Flow of Control Flow of Control refers to the order in which statements we have in the program are executed. The order can be ascending, descending or can execute a set of instructions a certain number of times where some values are changed and until the value meets some condition is stop executing those instructions. Determine, the order of the instructions, depends primarily on the algorithm that we developed in the program (Campbell, Islam, Raila, & Madany, 1993). Sequential flow Refers to the execution of instructions one after the other, i.e., a line to the next without skipping any, is where the output of one is the input of another. The sequential flow is almost nonexistent since many programs do function calls, and this makes it not sequential. Function When you call a function jump either conditional or unconditional is done, the "code block" class is executed and when it completes the block is returned to the address stored in memory before the jump, the function causes it to return to that address with the instruction "return". This is what we call function subroutines or subprograms (Calder & Grunwald, 1994). Alternative flow It is when the program counter does not follow the next instruction (as in the sequential flow) and jump directly to another although this in one direction...

...Name: Ariagna Briceno Date: 01/23/2012 CIS110 Smartlipo Smartlipo Laser Body Sculpting is a revolutionary, minimally invasive treatment that does something, no fitness routine in the world can: permanently destroy fat cells. Since your body has only a finite amount of these cells, no new fat cells come back. You can finally have that body you have always wanted. How does Laser Body Sculpting work? This laser-assisted lipolysis procedure is performed using a one millimeter cannula (or tube) inserted into the skin. A laserfiber inside of the cannula delivers energy directly to fat cells, causing them to rupture and drain away as liquid. Simultaneously, tissue around the area coagulates, resulting in overall tighter skin tissue. What areas of the body can be treated? Laser Body Sculpting is ideal for the neck, jaw line, arms, breasts, bra fat, abdomen, inner and outer thighs and knees. Who is a good candidate? A perfect candidate is in good health and of normal body weight. How does Laser Body Sculpting compare to conventional liposuction? Convention liposuction is meant to remove greater amounts of fat. However, since this can leave behind unsightly pockets of skin. Is there a recovery period? Laser Body Sculpting is a minimally invasive procedure which usually requires only local anesthesia. Some light trauma can occur, but you will be able to return to work in a couple of days and resume exercise after 2 weeks. How...

...CIS110-041 29 September 2014 A Long Way Gone Essay Questions 1. At the beginning of the novel, Ishmael describes war as too abstract for his mind to understand. He describes this as the mindset for all of the other people in his village as well. When Ishmael and his friends have nowhere to go, they roam nearby cities and what they see is unbearable to their young eyes. All of the destruction, dead bodies, and ransacked homes really put things in perspective for young Ishmael. I feel like this is the first time that Ishmael realizes what is really happening around him. When Ishmael is forced into the army, killing becomes his second nature. He is also on drugs such as cocaine, marijuana, and “brown brown” to help conceal his emotions. Dead bodies and carrying an AK-47 becomes a normal, every day thing for Ishmael. He completely loses sight of any sort of morals or self-respect that he had for himself as a young child. Ishmael had transformed from an innocent, unaware kid into a cold-blooded killer. Later on in the book, UNICEF rescues Ishmael and the other child soldiers that were in his army. UNICEF handed over Ishmael to the United Nations and they then entered him into rehab. After the rehab and all of the caring people, especially from one particular nurse named Esther, Ishmael is finally able to forgive himself. Being dehumanized was very easy for Ishmael, but reclaiming his humanity was extremely hard. 2. From previous years of studying about Africa and all the problems...
