...Unit 2 Assignment: Research 1. What are the variable naming rules of Visual Basic, Python, and Java? * Visual Basic requires you to use a letter as your first character. You are unable to use spaces, periods, exclamation marks, and other special characters within the name, consisting of: @, &, $, #. The name also can’t exceed 255 characters. You can’t repeat the same names within the same level of scope. There’s also a few other minor rules to follow as well. * Python allows you to use either a letter or underscore character as the first character in a line. You can use an unlimited amount of letter, numbers, or underscore characters following that. Python is also case sensitive and therefore makes upper and lower case characters important. Any digit number will work including and between the numbers 0 through 9. * Java can use Unicode letters, digits, and two special characters such as an underscore and dollar sign. Java is also case sensitive. A variable’s name can be any legal identifier. The length of a variable name can also be any number. The beginning variable can consist of either letters or underscore characters. White space isn’t permitted, special characters aren’t allowed, and digits cannot be used at the start. Subsequent characters are able to be letters, digits, dollar signs, or underscore characters. Finally, variable names must not be a keyword or reserved word. 2. List three similarities and differences between the three programming...

...Unit 2 Research Assignment 1 Chris Stephens ITT Technical Institute PT1420 Introduction to Programming Mr. Chamberlin April 1, 2014 Researching Variable Naming Rules The variable naming rules for Visual Basic, Python, and Java have many different facets to them. These are the most common and most used programming languages in use today. Over the years these languages have become more user-friendly and easier to comprehend to write programs. Visual Basic is most used in introductory program writing and common for students’ first learning of programming. Some of the naming rules for Visual Basic are: the first character of the name must be a letter, you can’t use a space, period, exclamation point, or these special characters - &, @, $, or # in the name, the name cant’ exceed 255 characters in length, and Visual Basic isn't case-sensitive, but it preserves the capitalization in the statement where the name is declared. (Microsoft, 2014) Python provides a special process called the PEP process, short for Python Enhancement Process for changes proposed to Python. (University, 2014) Some of the naming rules for Python are as follows : indentation should be done using four spaces per indentation level, lines should be less than 80 characters as compared to Visual Basic and its use of a maximum of 255 characters, and lines that get too long should be aligned in a “reasonable” fashion, for example aligned with an open delimiter and at a different...

...Visual Basic is the first programming language with an exemplary number of variable naming rules. The msdn.microsoft.com article explains the rules well. To start a word you must use a letter of the alphabet as the first character. You cannot use a space, nor a period, nor an exclamation mark, or the special characters of @ (at), & (and), $ (dollar sign), # (pound key) in the name. The name cannot surpass 255 characters in total length either. Names have to be precisely identified if the variable name is the same as an already existing one. You cannot repeat names in the same scope without the name being a different variable type. Lastly, while Visual Basic is not case-sensitive, it keeps the capitalization in the statement where the name is defined. Python is the next programming language where it gives you slightly more freedom for a variable name. A name must begin with a letter, lowercase or uppercase or an underscore. Python is case sensitive as well, consistency is important for read-ability. The variable name can be any “reasonable” length according to w3resource.com. Lastly, there are some reserved words Python uses for other things, which yourself cannot use. Java is the last of the three programming languages and no surprising exception to the naming rules. Names are case-sensitive, while you can begin a variable name with the $ sign or _ symbol, it is highly discouraged. The docs.oracle.com documentation of Java variable names tells the reader to always change...

...You should make time to listen to others and give them your full attention, particularly when someone is asking for help or confiding in you. Making a conscious effort to get to know people, their likes, dislikes, beliefs and values, will help build relationships. You must show respect for others and be considerate, value everyone’s opinion and point of view, even when they are not the same as your own. Acknowledge different religious beliefs and values and make an effort to learn about them. Making sure to remember names and the way in which people prefer to be addressed will show that you are interested and will make people feel valued and respected as individuals. When communication is received via letter or email, even if you can’t answer it straight away, you should always acknowledge it and respond as soon as you are able to so the sender doesn’t feel ignored. It is important when communicating, whether it is written, verbal or otherwise, to be clear on any key points to avoid misunderstandings and possible upset or confusion. Question 3 Explain how: • Social background • Professional background • Cultural background affect relationships and the way people communicate. We need to be able to adapt the way we communicate and behave in certain situations so as not to exclude people from different social and/or cultural backgrounds. Whilst it is important to remain professional we should also remember that everyone is different and treat them accordingly. You may only have...

...Assignment Title Unit 2. Assignment 1. Disk Redundancy Research Assignment Overview: Using the Internet and the ITT Tech Virtual Library, research the following questions, and provide your thoughts on each one. Submit your answers in a Word Document and ensure that you cite any resources you utilized with the proper APA format. 1. What does RAID stand for? RAID stands for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks 2. When would we use RAID? 3. Define the following types of RAID: a.RAID 0: Striped Set -- A RAID 0 setup splits data evenly across two or more disks. It is important to note that RAID 0 was not one of the original RAID levels, and is not redundant. If one drive goes down your server will need to be restored from backup b. RAID 1 Mirrored Set -- A Raid 1 setup creates an exact copy (or mirror) of data on two or more disks. A typical setup just has two drives that are setup to mirror data. If one drive goes down your server will still be functional until a scheduled drive replacement can be installed. c. RAID 5 Striped Set with Parity -- A RAID 5 setup uses block-level striping with parity data distributed across all disks in the RAID Array. This means you can have one drive fail and your server will remain functional until a scheduled drive replacement can be installed. RAID 5 also increases read/write speeds while using the available disk space efficiently. d. RAID 6 Similar to RAID 5 but not as widely used, RAID 6 performs either two parity computations...

...Unit 2 Assignment 1: Disk Redundancy Research December 14, 2013 1) What does RAID stand for? RAID stands for? RAID stands for Redundant Array of Independent Disks. 2) When would we use RAID? RAID can be used by either individual users or large network users to store data across multiple locations to increase fault tolerance. 3) Define the following types of RAID: a) RAID 0 b) RAID 1 c) RAID 5 d) RAID 6 RAID 0 | Strips data without redundancy. Provides faster performance, but it lacks fault tolerance. | RAID 1 | Known as disk mirroring. This method doesn’t strip data, it saves all data intact across at least two disks to provide fault tolerance. | RAID 5 | Uses rotating parity to store data. There is do data duplication, but the parity data can be used to reconstruct data. Mostly used by large organizations for data that is not performance sensitive. | RAID 6 | Same as RAID 5, but adds another parity scheme to increase fault tolerance. | 4) Why is RAID 0 of any use if it offers no redundancy? RAID 0 allows data to be broken up in order to allow faster access to data. 5) Why do you think that RAID 1 can be the most expensive? Why would people utilize it if it’s so costly? RAID 1 can be the most expensive because it requires an entire drive to make a duplicate of any data and the more copies you want, the more drives you need. People still use is because it makes complete copies of data, not partial ones. The complete copies allow users...
