The patient's history for update purposes
Patient A age 70. He is obese and 100% sedentary. He needs to do physical exercises, to lose weight, to decrease stress and to eat better (but he does not do that). He has diabetes: 25 years ago, he was diagnosed with diabetes type 2 and he has to take insulin.
Diet: He eats meat 3 times a day and does not eat dietary fiber.
Emotional: He is stressed and anxious, and works hard.
Parents: The mother and father died young because of complications of diabetes. Father: died at age 53 of myocardial infarction.
Symptoms now: shortness of breath, chest pain due to physical exertion (angina).
Has high blood pressure: 140/90. Never had hypertension before. His doctor prescribed for hypertension: Vasotec (enalapril).
He must take the following exams:
FSC: red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets
Lipid profile
Creatinine test
Uremia test (urine in the blood)
Electrolytes test (usually sodium or potassium or an acid-base imbalance)
Clearance of creatinine test
HbA1c test (also called glycated hemoglobin test, and glycohemoglobin)
Stress ECG test
Urine analysis
3 weeks later, the results:
Clearance of creatinine test show to us the GFR (Glomerular
Filtration Rate) results:
GFR 55mL/min (normal: 90-125mL/min)
Lipid profile: low level HDL, high level LDL
Plasma creatinine level (creatinine test): 150 mmol/L (normal: 50-110 umol/L)
Uremia test : 8 mmol/L (N : 3 - 6,5 mmol/L)
Urine analysis: 120 mg/L of proteins (normal: < 80 mg/L)
Stress ECG test: Anomalies related to unstable angina
Doctor's conclusion: chronic renal insufficiency (CRI), unstable angina. Needs to do an emergency angiography.
Angiography test results: several atheroma plaques in the coronary arteries. He had to put four stents during the procedure.
He had to take these medicaments:
Clopidogrel (Plavix), Aspirine (acide salicylique, for 1 year), and Crestor (is a statine). And also, the insulin and Vasotec (énalapril).
Question E: What is the link of diabetes with the liver and pancreas? And with the HbA1c? And with the liver and with coagulation, bile and vitamin K (if it causes low absorption of vitamin K)?

Write pseudocodes for the procedure StackFull;
Update the Push procedure to consider the exceptional situation
where the stack is full;
Write pseudocodes for the procedures QueueFull and QueueEmpty; In
particular, how would
you revise the queue-full condition \head[Q]==tail[Q]+1", when
\head[Q]==1" thus you
need to wrap around the array index?
Update the Enqueue procedure to consider the exceptional situations
where the queue is full;
Update the Dequeue procedure to consider the exceptional situations
where the queue is empty;
Implement the pseudocodes in Java. That is,
{ Use an array S[1...n] and the attribute top[S] to implement a
Stack of n Elements,
where top[S]==0 means the stack is empty.
{ Use an array Q[1...(n+1)] and the attributes head[Q] and tail[Q],
for a Queue of
n Elements. Again, implementation of head[Q] and tail[Q] should
strictly follow the
pseudocodes.
{ Add to the Java Starter two Java classes ArrayStack.java
and
ArrayQueue.java. Speci cally, these two classes MUST implement
respectively the in-
terfaces Stack.java and Queue.java.
{ You should NOT make any change to the three les: Element.java,
Stack.java and
Queue.java.

public void push(Element e);
public Element pop();
public boolean stackEmpty();
public boolean stackFull();

In 1998, the governor of New York, George Pataki, formulated a $185 million plan to update old Amtrak trains. The purpose of such a project was to make the old trains faster than the more current Amtrak trains. Such a reconstruction would allow for a high-speed rail system between Albany and New York City. Unfortunately, Amtrak produced only one train, and though millions of dollars were poured into the company to fund the project, auditing showed that the company showed little spending on the trains. Problems stemmed in part from the lack of engineering expertise of the Steel Company that was picked to work on the trains. Also, the state's Department of Transportation (DOT) was not experienced in overseeing projects of this type, so little oversight was given to Amtrak. Furthermore, unforeseen problems arose such as air conditioning malfunctions and the removal of asbestos from train cabins. After the plan seemed as though it would never be successful and Amtrak was extremely low on money due to normal operations, the company tried to settle with the state to escape the project. However, the state filed a lawsuit against Amtrak. Amtrak's defense was that both parties made a unilateral mistake because neither party foresaw the problems or extra costs associated with the project that made it unrealistic. How do you think the court decided? [New York v. AMTRAK,2007 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 13045 (N.D.N.Y, Feb. 23, 2007).]
