| Week #6 Assignments Week ofOctober 6th |
Please be sure to go over the programs in batch editing - they are similiar - the
control paragraph is the main difference. Note that these are watered down
versions of the real things and some of the choices I made in coding would or should
not be the choices you or I would make professionally! Assignments: Sequential Update Program: Sequential Update assignment Old Master data file Transaction data file Be sure to view the PowerPoint presentation on the sequential update assignment for notes on this assignment. I will be spending time on this assignment next week, I would like you to start looking it over this week. You can start coding when you are ready (this is the major project for the semester), but please note that I will be spending time discussing it next week and probably the week after, so maybe now is the time to get caught up and start writing after we have considered it more. I would suggest you write this using a module approach. Meaning pick one part and get it working and then move on to the next. |
| Week #5 Assignments Week of September 29th |
Be sure that you have looked at the programs EDITCHK and EDITINTR and the programs
on batch editing. Read the notes on the sort verb and look at the program examples. Read the notes on sequential updates and look at the PowerPoint presentation on the logic of the sequential update. Look at the PowerPoint presentation on an example of the sequential update - includes logic flowchart and code. It would be a good idea to check books in the library and information on the Web for additional writeups on sequential updates. We will briefly discuss editing and sorting next week and then we will start looking at sequential updates. Assignments: Edit questions Extra credit: Write a program that uses the SORT VERB to sort an existing file. Send me the program, the before file and the after file. |
| Week #4 Assignments Week of September 22nd |
Review your notes on edit programs from CIS12 (they are available under Editing). Read the Notes on MOD11 check digit and the notes on another check digit. Look at the MOD11 sample under sample programs. Look at the two programs called EDITCHK and EDITINTR under sample programs/editing data. Also look at the programs under batch editing - they are not professional quality but do illustrate some points! Read the notes on the sort verb and look at the program examples. Check back to see how we are doing! I had some email problems this morning and lost some email (mainly things delivered on the morning of the 11th), if you did not get a response or you suspect something did not get through, please send it again. Assignments: Another check digit - write the program that would take in the id and produce a check digit using this approach |
| Week #3 Week of September 15th |
We will finish looking at searches this week. We will also look at the search
verb. Assignments: Fill program to complete Complete fill table program: Fill assignment YOURFILL Due in three weeks Data for YOURFILL program - stuuour.dat Again, if you are having trouble with the data you can create your own using the program from week #1. Modify the search program (YOURSRCH) to use the search verb. SRCHVBDO |
| Week #2 Week of September 8th |
We will look at the logic of a binary search! Look at the notes (note that the
sample is not loaded because I want you to try it. LINSRCHX (html) Linear search - note that the paragraphs say binary search because I modified the binary search to get this. LINSRCHX (cbl) Linear search Under Postings/Notes on my home page, there is a link to some new scholarship information. Assignments: YOURSRCH assignment You may NOT use the search verb for this assignment! Note we have not covered the search verb yet, but in case you find it you cannot use it for this assignment! Data for YOURSRCH program - ins.dat If you do an early exit, I will give extra credit! If you have problems with the data file I provide, you can create your own using my data to tell you what data to create and the model program from last week. Binary Search Assignment: Modify the linear search (address given above) to make it a binary search. |
