...Written Report MACRO COMPUTER SCIENCE What is a Macro Computer? A macro (short for "macroinstruction", from Greek μακρο- 'long') in computer science is a rule or pattern that specifies how a certain input sequence (often a sequence of characters) should be mapped to a replacement output sequence (also often a sequence of characters) according to a defined procedure. The mappings process that instantiates (transforms) a macro use into a specific sequence is known as macro expansion. A facility for writing macros may be provided as part of a software application or as a part of a programming language. In the former case, macros are used to make tasks using the application less repetitive. In the latter case, they are a tool that allows a programmer to enable code reuse or even to design domain-specific languages. Macros are used to make a sequence of computing instructions available to the programmer as a single program statement, making the programming task less tedious and less error-prone. (Thus, they are called "macros" because a big block of code can be expanded from a small sequence of characters). Macros often allow positional or keyword parameters that dictate what the conditional assembler program generates and have been used to create entire programs or program suites according to such variables as operating system, platform or other factors. The term derives from "macro instruction", and such expansions were originally used in generating assembly language code...

...Macro & Micro analysis of the private gyms market sector As a group we conducted an analysis of the external market environment affecting the private gym market. Macro factors are “the number of broad forces that affect not only the company, but also the other factors within the micro environment” (Jobber 2012). We used PESTEL to analyse the external macro environment. Political/ Legal (Kemp): * Taxes – the business have to adapt to the changes in taxes. * Health and Safety – businesses need to keep up to date with regulations to reduce the chance of an injury claim. Economic (Sophie M): * Inflation – is declining meaning consumers will have more disposable income to spend on luxury services such as a gym membership. * Interest rates and exchange rates – interest rates historically low 0.5% less people are saving, creating more opportunities for gyms Social (Emily): * Influences in social media has created more of a health conscious society leading to more people wanting to go to the gym. Technological (Sophie C): * Advancement in gym equipment enables customers to surf the internet, connect with other users, stream music, watch TV, monitor heart rate as well as put their personal data into machines to make their workout tailored and personal (World Gym) Environmental (Shuaib): * The weather and the “Being Green” scheme are both external influences which will determine the success or failure of the business in terms of sales and competitive...

...Analysis of the Macroenvironment The purpose of this paper is to describe and explain the macro environment of a company in the marketing setting, and to outline the macro environment of Cadbury Chocolate. In their book Principles of marketing (Armstrong 2010), the authors give six factors that are the macro environment of a trading entity. They are 1. the demographic environment, 2. the economic environment, 3. the natural environment, 4. the technological environment, 5. the political and social environment and 6. the cultural environment. The demographic environment. Demogrophy refers to the science of vital and social statistics (Delbridge 1997) These statistics of a population will determine the products that the population need or desire, and the type of marketing that will be effective. Australia and other first world countries that are the target market for Cadbury, are countries with a large middle class, that earn a good wage or salary and have a reasonable amount of disposable income. Cadbury chocolate produce a product that is a delicacy and is affordable by a large portion of that population. The economic environment Australia has a strong economy, compared to other first world countries. Unemployment remains in the low five percent range. Confidence in the future, although not high, is not dismal. People who have disposable income are prepared to spend it rather than save. Cadbury Choclate have marketed their product such that it is desirable by, and affordable...

...An analysis of the key macro and micro economics factors which impact on the current UK housing market Introduction This paper explores the current situation in the UK housing market. Fundamentally, the paper argues that the current situation in the housing market is a legacy of the way in which the housing market developed over the early 2000s into the 2007 and 2008 financial crisis. As the fall out from this crisis has taken two or three years to properly be felt it can currently be said to be exerting a major influence on the way the housing market in the UK is working today. The paper therefore places a major focus on developing an understanding of how the financial crisis occurred and the impact that this had on the UK housing market, in order to understand the key factors which are shaping the housing market today. The paper begins with a look at the state of the UK economy at the moment. This is only examined in brief but provides a key background to the work. This is then followed by a look at the UK economy and the housing market and how the two link together. The following section is the major section of the work as this focuses on the macroeconomic factors which have shaped the housing market. This section in particular focuses on the legacy of the housing market developments of the early 2000s. The following section briefly explores the microeconomic elements which have shaped the housing market – the major emphasis here is on the role of buy to let mortgages as a...

...Macro Environment Analysis Definition Macro environment analysis is a review of all the factors that a company is unable to control. Companies conduct this analysis to stay aware of the issue in the current business environment. A common tool for conducting a macro environment analysis is the PESTEL framework, which include factors from the political, economic, social, technological, environmental and legal aspects in the business environment. The ultimate purpose of this analysis is to create a strategy that will leverage as many of these external factors as possible to the company’s favor. The political factors of the PESTEL analysis include the current stability of the government, social welfare policies imposed upon companies, trade tariffs or regulations that restrict international business and tax policies on corporate profits. This information is quite important to businesses, as extremely difficult political situations often result in lower profits and a more inflexible business environment. A macro environment analysis may focus heavily on the political factors in countries with difficult business environments. The group of external factors for this analysis comes from the economic factors within a country. Companies are unable to control issues like the income of buyers in the market, available credit offered by banks, unemployment, interest rates and inflation found in the economic market. These factors can also affect the company, lowering purchasing power...

...Macro-Environmental Analysis 1.2.1.4 Social Segment General Demographic According to the Market Analysis conducted by Matt Clark on the Sportswear Industry, the highest purchasers of Sportswear Apparel are those who are old enough to hold a career level job yet are young enough that they are likely to exercise regularly, which usually is ranging from 25 to 54 years old. The said demographic, to some degree, are buying higher end versions of these products rather than a higher quantity of these products. Moreover, the said analysis also mentioned that the lowest spending age group are those age 75 and above. This is likely attributable to the fact that those in this age category are unable to exercise or are simply exercising less. It may also be attributable to the fact that persons from this generation still consider cotton T-shirts to be the standard bearer for athletic apparel. In the further studies conducted by Clark, he also mentioned that in ages 35 to 44 under the demographic, more money was spent on male sportswear than on female sportswear. The rest of the groups reflected the same picture as the total population being that more money was spent on female rather than male sportswear. 1.2.1.5 Economic Segment Philippines’ Sports and Apparel Market Grew at 7%, Fastest in Asia According to an article written by Robb Young (www.businessoffashion.com), a Euromonitor International's Singapore-based emerging market analyst Jason...

...sandy and dry, whereas the rest of the islands are covered in rocky land. It, therefore, lacks in natural resources and has experienced severe droughts. Agriculture is made difficult by lack of rain and is restricted to only four islands for most of the year. It is ironic that the country is called “Verde” meaning “Green,” even though most of the land is not green. Due to the scarcity of agriculture, most of the nation's GDP comes from the service industry; more specifically tourism, light manufacturing industries, and fisheries. Cape Verde's economy has been steadily growing since the late 1990s, and it is now officially considered a country of average development. Through an economic analysis of Cape Verde, we will see the connections between its economy, society, and government. The analysis will recognize not only the flaws and struggles of the country, but will pose possible solutions to its problems. Government: Past and Present Learning about a country’s government is essential to figuring out their economic details. Uninhabited on their discovery in 1456, the Cape Verde islands became part of the Portuguese empire in 1495. Portuguese people began establishing settlements throughout the islands, especially along the ports. They were still governed by the Portuguese government and abided by all the same laws; however, the Portuguese government did not have much involvement with the settlements. Therefore, without strong sustainable investment from the homeland’s government...

They rely on hard work and dedication in order for the business to succeed. This means that the human resources of the business are at the strongest possible level, and that there is a limited chance of failure due to a lack of dedicated employees. Staff have also been described to be extremely dedicated towards their work, and are professional in the way they conduct their allocated tasks within the business itself.
