...Unit 10: Homework and Research Assignment Definition Decision Structure - allows a program to perform actions only under certain conditions. Boolean expression - expressions that can be evaluated as either True or False Iteration - is the repetition of a block of statements within a computer program. Counter-controlled repetition structure - used when a program needs to repeatedly process one or more instructions until some condition is met, at which time the loop ends. Many programming tasks are repetitive, having little variation from one item to the next. Condition controlled - Most programming languages have constructions for repeating a loop until some condition changes. Note that some variations place the test at the start of the loop, while others have the test at the end of the loop. Pre – test loop - the condition gets evaluated at the beginning of the loop cycle. Therefore, the body of the loop will not get executed if the condition does not hold the very first time. Post – Test loop - the loop condition gets evaluated at the end of the loop cycle. Therefore, the body of the loop will get executed at least once, regardless of the condition. This is a major difference between a pretest loop and a posttest loop. You may choose a posttest loop if the problem description justifies the body of the loop be executed at least once. Repetition Sequence/ Set of statements - A repetition structure causes a statement or set of statements to execute...

...PT1420 Research Assignment 8.1 Exploring the Differences between Count-controlled Loops and While Loops August 14, 2014 Count-control loops are performed a specific number of times while While loops are performed based upon whether a condition is true or not. The process of a While loop is based upon a condition which is dependent upon Boolean expressions. For While and Do While loops, if the expression is true the loop is executed. If the condition is false the loop is exited. A While loop is a pretest loop, which means that the condition is tested before performing an iteration. The Do-While loop is a posttest loop meaning that the loop is executed once before the condition is tested. (Gaddis, 2010) Three reasons a count-controlled loop can be better than a condition-controlled loop include: the fact that it keeps count of the number of times you to input data, it only runs the specific number of times you have instructed the program to, and it will stop after to allotted time instructed. Three reasons condition-controlled loops are more advantageous than count-controlled loops include the fact that the variable can be more than one number as long as the condition is true, condition controlled loops will only stop when the condition is false (or true as in the case of the Do-Until loop), and the variable numbers can be any real number which will make the statement true.

...Keith Warren PT1420 Unit 2 Assignment 1: Homework Short Answer: 1. If the problem is program assignment of some sort, than the first step would be to design the basis of the program in pseudocode to gain a clear picture of what kind of commands will work where, then move into flowcharting to start putting together the logic. b. If the problem is an issue in the code that is preventing it from executing, than the first thing that should be done is to look over the program for syntax errors and logic errors. 2. Pseudocode is fake code. This is where a programmer writes out the code without worry of syntax or logic errors to get a visual feel of how the program should unfold. 3. Input, Process, and Output 4. User-Friendly is a term used to describe programs that are easy to use. Algorithm Workbench: 1. A. Display “Height” B. Input height C. Display “Here is the height you entered:”, height 2. A.

...Michael Campbell PT1420 Unit 1 Re Ass 1 10/10/2014 1. 1970s – The programming language was C, which was created by Dennis M. Richie. Before he created the C language there was the B language, which was created by Ken Thompson in 1969-70. The computers in that time wrote in assembly code and the user had to write many pages of code to do a task. When the B language was created, it made it possible to do a task in a few lines. Although the B language improved the systems it lacked use of structure and didn’t know data types. So in 1971-73 Dennis Richie wrote the C language in which he kept the B syntax but added data types and other changes that needed to be made. It was built for power and speed and developed for UNIX systems. Its also used for Windows, the MacOS and Linux. 2. 1980s – The programming language was Python, which was created by Guido van Rossum. It’s more of a scripting language and allows users to produce large quantities readable and functional code in a quick amount of time. Python teaches the user how to work with other languages, indentation, and modularity. It supports object – oriented, procedural, and functional program styles. C++ was also created and used many different types of computers. Program A was created by Arthur Whitney in 1988, and it focused on graphics, systems interfaces, utility support, and user community. 3. 1990s – The programming language was Ruby, which was created by computer scientist Yukihiro Matsumoto. It was created...

...ALONZO DARGAN (17186943) PT1420 Computer Programming Unit 7 Assignment 1: Homework 7 May 2014 Short Answers Page 213 1-5 1. Why should you indent the statements in the body of a loop? Because by indenting the statements in the body of the loop you visually set them apart from the surrounding code. This makes your program easier to read and debug. 2. Describe the difference between pretest loops and posttest loops. A pretest loop means to test its condition before performing an iteration A posttest loop means it performs an iteration before testing its condition. 3. What is a condition-controlled loop? A condition-controlled loop uses a true/false condition to control the number of times that it repeats. 4. What is a count-controlled loop? A count-controlled loop repeats a specific number of times. 5. What three actions do count-controlled loops typically perform using the counter variable? 1) Initialization: the variable is initialized 2) Test: the loop tests the variable by comparing it to the maximum value 3) Increment: to increase the value during each iteration the loop increments the counter variable by adding 1 to it. Algorithm Workbench Review Questions 1,2,7, and 8 p. 213-214 1. Design a While loop that lets the user enter a number. The number should be multiplied by 10, and the result stored in a variable named product. The loop should iterate as long as the product contains a value less than 100.

A power full asset of the computer is its ability to make decisions and to take alternate course of action based on the outcome. 2. What is a Boolean expression? a logical statement that is either TRUE or FALSE. 3 . Explain the purpose of comparison operators and logical operators. The purpose of a comparison operator is to test some kind of relationship between two entities examples are >, <, ==, !=, etc 4. How does a comparison performed on numeric data differ from a comparison performed on string data? There are commonly used interchangeably, and the distinction between them is a small one. Comparison to" should be used when comparison is made between specific people, things, or other instances. 5. How does Visual Basic compare the Text property of a text box? When you compare the Text property of a text box with another value the Text property behaves like a variant. Visual Basic compares one text box to another as strings and compares a text box to a numeric variable or constant with a numeric compare. You can force a numeric comparison on a Text property by using the Val function. 6 . Why would it be useful to include the ToUpper method in a comparison? When comparing strings, the case of the characters is important. An uppercase “Y” does not compare equal to a lowercase “y”. Since the user may type a name or word in either...
