Problem 4 (designed to be used with the NORMDIST tutorial)

The following table represents a plan for a project:

1. Construct the appropriate network diagram.
2. Indicate the critical path.
3. What is the expected completion time for the project?
4. What is the probability the project will:
   take more than 43 days to complete;
   take less than 42 days to complete; and
   take between 37 and 42 days to complete?

Draw the red-black BST that results when you insert letters A through K int order into an initially empty tree, then describe what happens in general when trees are built by insertion of keys in ascending order. What about descending order?

The following CPM network has estimates of the normal time in weeks listed for the activities:

1. Please identify the critical path.
2. What is the length of time to complete the project?
3. Which activities have slack, and how much?
4. Based on the table of normal and crash times and costs, which activities would you shorten to cut two weeks off the expected completion time? Does this change the critical path—if so, what is(are) the new path(s).

Imagine that whenever your boss asks for feedback, she/he defensively argues with anyone who offers criticism, so people have stopped offering feedback. You decide to talk to your boss about this and hope to keep the conversation relaxed and professional. Explain how you would approach the conversation and list some points you would want to make when you discuss this issue.

Research Basics: Lesson 1 ENGLISH 1021-41 ESSAY FUNDAMENTAL

INSTRUCTIONS:

• Read and watch each web page/video/resource.
• Type a summary of the top takeaways/things you learned from each section/link whether they have a video or not. Each paragraph should have complete sentences and there needs to be at least 4 sentences. Think of it as at least one sentence about each of the four top things you learned from each resource you review.
• So, again, you will type up paragraph for each section/link. Label your paragraphs by each section you are writing about. So, give a heading or label that says: What is Research? Information Cycle, and Planning: Keywords and Search Strings, then add you paragraphs about what you learned in each area. Put these paragraphs all together in ONE WORD DOCUMENT.
• Label it Research Basics: Lesson 1 and submit it all together to the Research Basics: Lesson 1 assignment folder by April 20 at 11:59 pm.

This week you will be looking at these sections/links:

What is Research?

Information Lifecycle

Planning: Keywords and Search Strings - Learn how to identify keywords from a research topic and format them into search strings.

NOTE: This link may have words on the web page AND a video. Make sure to view and summarize/give top 4 take always from all included content (what you see/read)

Use VB.net to create a loop that posts the first 100 prime numbers. Then, write code to confirm the numbers are prime.

Background: The GC owners have questions and need clarification about several contract concepts and issues related to their new business. Specifically, they have questions about:

• the Statute of Frauds “writing requirement” and
• electronic contracts

Generally, contracts for the sale of goods must be in writing, and the writing must be signed by the parties to the agreement, and the parties must be sufficiently identified. GC will be selling goods via the internet, and the owners are wondering whether these electronic contracts are valid and enforceable.

Background Facts You Need To Know:  Company X, a company in Illinois, contracted via the internet with Windows Bright, a small window washing business in Missouri to purchase four cases of Shiny Lite window cleaning solution at $200 per case. Company X paid via the internet with a company credit card. The contract stated that the four cases of Shiny Lite would be shipped to Company X’s place of business in Illinois via UPS. Once UPS delivered the Shiny Lite, the contract required Windows Bright to clean Company X's windows.

Winne and Ralph have asked you to prepare examples and explanations of the statute of frauds and electronic contracts.

To respond to the GC's questions and concerns, you must prepare a fact scenario and be prepared to discuss the scenarios in a meeting with TLG and the GC owners.

A. Discuss whether the contract between X and Windows Bright is subject to the Uniform Commercial Code Statute of Frauds.

B. Analyze and explain whether the internet electronic contract between X and Windows Bright satisfies the “writing” requirements for the Statute of Frauds? If so, how and why?

Pre-Assignment

hom

Before you start, create a new Eclipse project and create one package in that project. The package should be called “HW3”

Problem 1

Create a class called “Person”. This class should have, at minimum, the following members and methods. I advise you to add others as you see fit.

// Members

firstName (string)

lastName (string)

age (int)

pAddress (Address)  // This is composition! I suggest using the Address class we defined earlier!

pDOB (Date)  // This is composition!  I suggest using the Date class we defined earlier!

// Constructors

Person()  // Default with age = 0, names null, and DOB and Address default for those classes

Person(firstName, lastName, age)  // Address and DOB will be default for those classes

Person( Person x)  // Copy constructor that does a DEEP COPY of the person object.

// Setters

setFirstName(String firstName)

setLastName(String lastName)

SetName(String firstName, String lastName)

setAge(int newAge)

setAddress(String houseNum, String street, String city, String state, String zip)

setDOB (int day, int month, in year)

// Getters

toString()   // Print out the name, age, dob, and address (use toString from DOB and Address)

getAge()  // return the age

getFirstName()   // return the first name

getLastName()  // return the last name

getDOB()   // Return a COPY OF the date object HINT: Use the date copy constructor!

getAddress() // Return a COPY OF the address object HINT: Use the Address copy constructor!

Problem 2

Test your Person class by creating a new class (in the same “HW3” package and then use the methods to make sure they work properly. I provide no guidance on this since all you need to do is test the methods to make sure they work. Call each and make sure they don’t report errors or fail to execute correctly. Fix any bugs you find. Ask for help if you need it!!!

Problem 3

Create a new class file and call it “Student”. This class will EXTEND on the Person class by adding new data members and methods. Note that students are, in fact, people. This extension makes sense!

// Data members

stuID (String)

major (string)  

level (int)    // 0 = first-year,  1 = sophomore,  2 = junior,   3 = senior,  4 = post-grad

// Constructors

Student(String id, String lastName, String firstName, String major, int level)

Student( Student x)  // Copy constructor that makes a DEEP COPY of Student x object

// Setters

Provide one setter for major, one setter for stuID, and one setter for level. Note that the “level” method should check the input to make sure it makes sense. If something besides a 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 is provided, the setter should write a warning to screen and refuse to make the change.

// Getters

Provide one getter for major, one getter for stuID, and one getter for level.

// Provide an overrided toString method and use super to also use the inherited toString

toString (String)

// This method should write to screen something like this:

// “Jones, Mary, 21, 544 S Winston St., Kemble, KY 00000, Computer Science, 3”

// Note that you want to use the inherited toString() method here by saying super.toString()

// somewhere in your returned expression.

Problem 4

Create a new class in “HW3” package and call it “testStudent”. Use this class to create multiple student objects and person objects. Test all the methods for accuracy. Make sure you have correct behavior for all of your methods/constructors. Watch out for the copy constructors!!!!
