...Name: ______________________________ CSSE483 Android Application Development Lab 1: Getting Started with Buttons The purpose of this lab is to give you some practice building simple Android apps. ______ Part A: Building a Simple User Interface ______ Part B: Linear Lights Out A. Building a Simple User Interface 1. Create a new Application called MyFirstAppYourName. You can use your username or initials as long as they are unique among your classmates.) Setup the UI for the MainActivity using the link below. Note that the link is to a single step in a Google tutorial. Only do that one step. You do not need to do the “Starting Another Activity” step that comes next. So only this one page. http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/building-ui.html Complete that page then use the instructions below. 2. So far so good, but the button doesn’t do anything. Add java code to listen for the button press. If it is pressed, it checks to see what the user entered. If they entered “secret”, the button’s text will change to “Wow”. Otherwise, it stays, “Send” like in the tutorial. Hint: The body of the onClick method will include this: if (editText.getText().toString().equals(getString(R.string.secret))) { button.setText(R.string.button_text_wow); } else { // you fill this in } Notes: (1) Check out the return type for the getText() method. Can you see why you need the toString()? (2) Note that the setText() method can take a resource ID (a string from strings...

...Wind Turbine San Jose State University, Charles W. Davidson College of Engineering E10 Introduction to Engineering By Justin DeCastro, Cari Geldreich, Hugo Quiroz, and Ashley Mishra March 24, 2011 Professor Athanasiou Section 6 Project Summary The project that was assigned in lab was the wind turbine lab. The objective of this lab was to develop and construct a wind turbine that would create enough energy to conduct electricity. The goal of the assignment was to construct the most creative and stable structure so that it would withstand high winds. After constructing the turbine, which was 17 inches high and weight 255 grams, the next task was to test its stiffness using various amounts of weights and to look for the displacement. The maximum amount of displacement by the turbine was 4.81 mm. After finding out how stiff the turbine was, the next task was to measure the amount of power the turbine generated. The turbine worked quite well except for the fact that the blade broke within the first few minutes. The blade speed started out with 9703 RPM and went down to as low as 6000RPM when it had 6 light bulbs on. The turbine successfully completed all the objectives with ease. The only thing that it could’ve done better in was the stiffness test because it displaced more weight than it needed to.

...ULTRAVIOLET/VISIBLE SPECTROSCOPY PURDUE UNIVERSITY INSTRUMENT VAN PROJECT ANALYSIS OF PLANT PIGMENTS USING PAPER CHROMATOGRAPHY AND VISIBLE AND/OR UV SPECTROSCOPY (1-31-96) INTRODUCTION We have seen that all cells must constantly consume fuel molecules to maintain themselves, grow, and reproduce. Fuel molecules such as glucose constitute an immediate source of energy for biological work that can be released by catabolic cell processes. However it is necessary that life on earth have a constant source of energy that can be harvested and used to generate complex fuel molecules from simple starting materials. The ultimate energy source upon which all life forms depend is visible light from the sun. Light energy must first be transformed into chemical(bond) energy before it can be utilized by the living cell. This transformation is achieved only in the cells of green plants and certain bacteria. In green plants it is coupled with a transformation of matter in which relatively low-energy compounds, carbon dioxide and water, are converted into high energy chemical molecules that become subunits of carbohydrates. There are four different pigment groups present in leaves of photosynthesizing plants. Studies indicate that only the chlorophyll IS involved in the actual absorption of light energy and later conversion to chemical energy of living cells. The other pigments also absorb light energy, but it is transferred to the chlorophyll for conversion to chemical energy. Biochemists have...

...The Manhattan Project, the program behind the development of the first nuclear weapons, affected the world greatly in many ways. The Manhattan Project was a secret, $2 billion project created by the U.S. The project was so secretive that only 6 of the scientists knew the nature of the manhattan project; Niels Bohr, Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi, Richard Feynman, J. Robert Oppenheimer, and Harold Urey. The people working on it were forbidden to speak about anything involving this, military security guarded the grounds, and the communications in and out were monitored. In 1939, the U.S. was warned that Nazi scientists had split an atom and could use that to build an atomic bomb. The U.S. started the top-secret program known as the manhattan project, it was named this after the Manhattan Engineering district of the War Department which was where it began....

...the Speed of Light Google is wildly innovative. It recently topped Fast Company magazine’s list of the world’s most innovative companies, and it regularly ranks among everyone else’s top two or three innovators. Google is also spectacularly successful. Despite formidable competition from giants like Microsoft and Yahoo!, Google’s share in its core business—online search—stands at a decisive 66 percent, 2.5 times the combined market shares of its two closest competitors. The company also captures 86 percent of the mobile-search market and 60 percent of all search-related advertising revenues. But Google has grown to become much more than just an Internet search and advertising company. Google’s mission is “to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.” In Google’s view, information is a kind of natural resource—one to be mined and refined and universally distributed. That idea unifies what would otherwise appear to be a widely diverse set of Google projects, such as mapping the world, searching the Web on a cell phone screen, or even providing for the early detection of flu epidemics. If it has to do with harnessing and using information, Google’s got it covered in some innovative way. Google knows how to innovate. At many companies, new product development is a cautious, step-by-step affair that might take a year or two to unfold. In contrast, Google’s freewheeling new-product development process moves at the speed of light. The nimble innovator...

... The Organizing Function of Management Sikorsky Aircraft is an aerospace company that was founded in 1925 by Igor Sikorsky, a born Engineer and American Immigrant. These days, Sikorsky Aircraft makes several different models of rotary aircraft, which fills business and armed forces roles worldwide. In addition, the United States of America Presidential Transport Program contracts at this time belong to Sikorsky Aircraft. Igor Sikorsky built a company that is currently one of the best in helicopter design and development. Sikorsky aircraft currently owns quite a few subsidiaries, as well as but not limited to Helicopter Support Inc. which deals with after market support, and Schweizer Aircraft Corporation that builds small helicopters, light planes, gliders, and U.A.V.s. Now in terms of vertical structure, Sikorsky Aircraft is a strong business that is made up of several integrated departments and sub departments, which lead up in the course of several layers of allocation. At the top of the ladder is of course, a CEO, the board of directors, and shareholders. Horizontally, Sikorsky Aircraft is a bit of a "crossbreed" organization because it is divisional, however not every department has its own marketing sub division, for example. Sikorsky Aircraft is made up of several departments because there are several facets that make up the helicopter production business. For example, the interior paint shop. This part, in several ways, operates as its own unit. The paint shop has...

...Introduction In modern day society, it is very likely that someone would show subtle signs of prejudice towards people or ideas they aren’t familiar with in their immediate reactions rather than be overtly obvious with it. Along with societal norms of just not accepting blatant prejudice, this may be due to the fact that this particular person doesn’t realize they have a prejudice towards a specific type of group. Thus, tests such as the Implicit Association Test (IAT) by Project Implicit bring light to what these prejudices within people may be. The purpose of the IAT, with tests varying from Skin-tone (Light Skin - Dark Skin) to Age (Young - Old), is to see the implicit biases people have in particular situations. According to their website’s...
