Guidelines

Guide only, feel free to organise however else you like to as long as you address the learning outcomes and elements in the rubric.

* Introduction

Introduce the general issue and its importance

Identify key trends or perspectives

Identify the specific focus of this literature review (your identified issue)

Give a brief outline of the structure of the body

* Body

Cluster your literature around common themes or threads of ideas. Structure your writing thematically and not author by author. This allows you to compare, contrast, and make sense of the different authors’ perspectives on one point./ And if you find there are a lot of authors with some contribution to one point, then maybe that point needs to be teased out into sub-themes

Try not to hide behind what the literature is saying. Remember, it is up to you to interpret it and make sense of it for your reader. Listing what they have found or believe is part of a literature review, but in itself is not enough, you need to clarify what the reader is to take away from this body of research

Never be afraid to narrow your topic. You have a word limit, which is enough to make one meaningful point, but not to include detail for its own sake. It is better to dig deep into a topic rather than be broad and superficial

You may have to limit your question many times before you finalise your draft. Spend time considering your question/topic, because this provides the guidelines for your writing and your research. You need to have clear guidelines so that you can research with purpose and efficiency, even if these guidelines are modified later. Otherwise a lot of time and energy will be wasted, either, looking at irrelevant material, or material that cannot fit into your review

* Conclusion

Summarize the major contributions, evaluating the current position, and pointing out flaws in methodology, gaps in the research, contradictions and areas for further study

Conclude by summing up and identifying the significance of the topic in relation to the literature

* Please ensure that you write succinctly to avoid wasting your word count. Note that unnecessary words weakens your argument. You should keep within +/- 10% of your word count

* Check for spelling and grammatical errors. Loosing marks from errors that could be addressed through editing is not worth it.

* Make sure that all references are correctly referenced using APA style

* Refer to Unit Guide for more information about the unit requirements

Programming in C (not C++)

The high level goal of this project is to write a program called "wordfreak" that takes "some files" as input, counts how many times each word occurs across them all (considering all letters to be lower case), and writes those words and associated counts to an output file in alphabetical order.

We provide you some example book text files to test your program on. For example, if you ran

$ ./wordfreak aladdin.txt

Then the contents of the output file would be:

$ cat output.txt

a : 49

aback : 1

able : 1

...

required : 1

respectfully : 1

retraced : 1

...

that : 11

the : 126

their : 2

...

you : 20

young : 1

your : 7

The words from all the input files will be counted together. If a word appears 3 times in one input file and 4 times in another, it will be counted 7 times between the two.

Input

wordfreak needs to be able to read input from 3 sources: standard input, files given in argv, and a file given as the environment variable. It should read words from all these that are applicable (always standard in, sometimes the other 2).

A working implementation must be able to accept input entered directly into the terminal, with the end of such input signified by the EOF character (^D (control+d)):

$ ./wordfreak

I can write words here,

and end the file with control plus d

$ cat output.txt

and : 1

can : 1

control : 1

d : 1

end : 1

file : 1

here : 1

i : 1

plus : 1

the : 1

with : 1

words : 1

write : 1

However, it should alternately be able to accept a file piped in to standard input via bash’s operator pipe:

$ cat aladdin.txt | ./wordfreak

It should be noted that your program has no real way to tell which of these two situations is occuring, it just sees information written to standard input. However, by just treating standard input like a file, you will get both of these behaviours.

A working implementation must also accept files as command line arguments:

$ ./wordfreak aladdin.txt iliad.txt odyssey.txt

Finally, a working implementation must also accept an environment variable called WORD_FREAK set to a single file from the command line to be analyzed:

$ WORD_FREAK=aladdin.txt ./wordfreak

And of course, it should be able to do all of these at once

$ cat newton.txt | WORD_FREAK=aladdin.txt ./wordfreak iliad.txt odyssey.txt

Words

Words should be comprised of only alpha characters, and all alpha characters should be taken to be lower case.

For example "POT4TO???" would give the words "pot" and "to". And the word "isn’t" would be read as "isn" and "t". While this isn't necessarily intuitively correct, this is what your code is expected to do:

$ echo "Isn’t that a POT4TO???" | ./wordfreak

$ cat output.txt

a : 1

isn : 1

pot : 1

t : 1

that : 1

to : 1

You are required to store the words in a specific data structure. You should have a binary search tree for each letter 'a' to 'z' that stores the words starting with that letter (and their counts). This can be thought of as a hash function from strings to binary search trees, where the hashing function is just first_letter - 'a'. Note that these BSTs will not likely be balanced; that is fine.

Output

The words should be written to the file alphabetically (the BSTs make this fairly trivial). Each word will give a line of the form "[word][additional space] : [additional space][number]\n". The caveat is that all the colons need to line up. The words are left-aligned and the longest will have a single space between its end and the colon (note "respectfully" in the example below); the numbers are right-aligned and the longest will have a single space between the colon and its beginning (note 126 in the example below).

$ ./wordfreak aladdin.txt

$ cat output.txt

a : 49

...

respectfully : 1

...

the : 126

...

your : 7

The output file should be named output.txt. Note that when opening the file to write to, you will either need to create the file or remove all existing contents, so make use of open()'s O_CREAT and O_TRUNC. Moreover, you will want the file’s permissions to be set so that it can be read. open()’s third argument determines permissions of created files, something like 0644 will make it readable.

restricted to only using the following system calls: open(), close(), read(), write(), and lseek() for performing I/O. You are allowed to use other C library calls (e.g., malloc(), free()). However, all I/O is restricted to the Linux kernel’s direct API support for I/O. You are also allowed to use sprintf() to make formatting easier.

Australia has been a world leader in using 'healthy public policy approaches' such as legislation and taxation to address tobacco consumption. Since the 1990s, our policy measures have led to significant smoking decline across Australia. Using one of the several tobacco control policies in Australia, describe each of the following phases of Walt’s (1994) policy making framework as stated in Baum (2016; Chapter 24: Healthy Public Policy, p 620-621):
a. Problem identification and issue recognition
b. Policy formulation
c. Policy implementation
d. Policy evaluation

The U.S. has been traditionally known as a relatively low saving country, compared to countries like Japan. The U.S. personal saving rate had seldom gone into the double digits since the early 1990s (Source: the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis). In response to the coronavirus pandemic, people inevitably try to save more. We observe that the U.S. savings are rising in an unprecedented manner: the U.S. personal savings rate (personal saving as a percentage of disposable personal income) hit a historic 33% in April 2020. What are the impacts of rising savings on the U.S. pandemic-hit economy? Share your thoughts. 100-word minimum type

Case: A New Business

Mr. Khalid, a young entrepreneur who has worked in various restaurants throughout high school and college, has decided to develop a new food service concept that focuses primarily on takeout of home-cooked food for busy professionals on their way home from work. The restaurant would also have a small dining area for customers who wish to eat the food there. Because this prospective business will have to compete with other traditional local restaurants, Mr. Khalid wants to ensure that this business will compete on quality and develop a strong quality reputation.

Question: Explain Marketing perspective of Quality for the new business?
