Assignments

Individual Visual Logic- Calculations

Select two calculation tasks a program could perform that would be useful.

Each task must include the following:

• Inputing a value
• Performing a calculation on that value
• Outputting the value

Example calculations include the following:

• Calculating sales tax on a sale
• Converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius
• Figuring out a total bulk sale price based on price per unit and number of units

Obtain approval from your instructor for your items. Send a Private Message to your instructor.

Create a Word document. The document should contain:

• a brief description of the tasks
• the pseudocode associated with each of the tasks

Create Visual Logic files to execute each of the tasks. You can combine both tasks into one VL file.

Option 2: Home Maintenance

Learning Team Instructions - Algorithm Planning for Home Maintenance

The first phase of your team's project consists of two steps. Step 1 is to design the application. Consider the following:

• Which maintenance tasks will be included in your application?
• Will these tasks be related to a specific purpose? If so, will this purpose be indicated on the user interface?
• Will the user interface consist of one or more screens?
• How will the user enter the status of the each maintenance task? How will that status be displayed?

Step 2 is to plan how your team will develop a program that calculates how many tasks have not yet been completed.

• Create a complete list of activities, placed in logical order, that must be completed in the first phase of the programming development cycle.
• Determine the modules that will be needed in the program.
• Design a top-level algorithm that calls each module as needed.

Write a simple algorithm in pseudocode that lists the program's input, output, and processing components in a logical, sequential order. At this stage, do not show the tasks and subtasks within each component.

Submit a Word document with a 1- to 2-paragraph Learning Team Status Report that includes what the team accomplished for the week, any issues encountered, and plans for the next week.
